The Trials Of Brett Kavanaugh

This one is even worse than usual, in a mall in downtown DC sharing space with Victoria's Secret and Sephora. Absolutely the least appealing steakhouse in town and Fox News staff + Ed Henry's old haunt where they'd be real creeps. pic.twitter.com/qbHNZzmY73

Where's the right to go to a restaurant and eat free of protest in the friggin' text of the friggin' Constitution? It's pretty funny to depend on the "right to congregate" to protect Brett the molester from People exercising their right to congregate.

And reports are it was two people standing outside the window of the restaurant. In the mall. Kavanaugh never saw them or heard them.

You know, where you’d expect people to be around.

Sec. if Transportation Buttigieg deserves the last word(s):

You're never going to be free from criticism or peaceful protests, people exercising their First Amendment rights," the Transporation secretary pointed out.

 "That's what happened in this case," he explained. "Remember, the justice never even came into contact with these protesters, reportedly didn't see or hear them. And these protesters are upset because a right, an important right that the majority of Americans support was taken away." 

 "Not only the right to choose by the way," Buttigieg continued, "but this justice was part of the process of stripping away the right to privacy. Since I've been alive, settled case law in the United States has been that the Constitution protected the right to privacy and that has now been thrown out the window by justices, including Justice Kavanaugh, who as I recall, swore up and down in front of God and everyone including the United States Congress that they were going to leave settled case law alone. So yes, people are upset. They're going to exercise their First Amendment rights." 

 "Compare that, for example, to the reality that as a country right now we are reckoning with the fact that a mob summoned by the former president..." he added before Emmanuel spoke up.

 "Let me follow up," the Fox News host said while the Biden official ignored him. 

 "...to the United States Capitol for the purpose of overthrowing the election and very nearly succeeded in preventing the peaceful transfer of power," he argued. "I think common sense can tell the difference." 

 Emmanuel made the mistake of asking a follow-up question. "But as a high-profile public figure, sir, are you comfortable with protesters protesting when you and your husband go to dinner at a restaurant?" the Fox News host wondered. 

 "Protesting peacefully outside in a public space? Sure," he responded. "Look, I can't even tell you the number of spaces, venues and scenarios where I've been protested. And the bottom line is this. Any public figure should always -- always -- be free from violence, intimidation and harassment. But should never be free from criticism or people exercising their First Amendment rights."

Suck it up, buttercup. Maybe more attention to people and less to ideology would be a good lesson for you.
