Opening statements from Kavanaugh and the senators on the committee will take place September 4. The senators will then question the nominee on September 5. The final part of the hearings will include testimony from national leaders in the legal community. Democrats are expressing outrage at the schedule, saying that they have not had enough time or material to vet President Trump’s nominee, but those objections fall apart on the facts. Grassley has presided over the most thorough vetting of any Supreme Court justice in U.S. history, and he says it is now time for his committee to prepare for public hearings. Kavanaugh has served on the U.S. Court of Appeals for 12 years. During that time he has authored 307 opinions, totaling 4,800 pages. He has also joined hundreds more, for a total of over 6,400 pages of additional judicial opinions. This comprehensive record of his legal philosophy has been in the public domain for years. All that notwithstanding, Grassley has ensured that the Judiciary Committee took an extremely close look at Kavanaugh, and has reviewed hundreds of thousands of documents. While senators received 172,000 pages on Justice Elena Kagan and 184,000 pages on Justice Neil Gorsuch, lawmakers received an all-time record of over 900,000 pages of documents on Kavanaugh – the largest number of Executive Branch records ever submitted to the Senate for a Supreme Court nominee in American history. Beyond that, Kavanaugh returned the most comprehensive, bipartisan Senate questionnaire in the history of the Judiciary Committee, providing 110 pages of answers to the committee’s questions. These answers were accompanied by an astounding 17,000 pages of documentation and supporting materials.

To: nolu chan, WH DOJ cover up (#0) Chuck Grassley Accused of ‘Cover-Up’ Regarding Secret Kavanaugh Documents Senator Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) has been accused of leading a “cover-up” over thousands of unreleased documents related to Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh‘s time in government. ........... Kavanaugh’s lengthy time in government has resulted in a massive paper trail. But many of those papers are currently inaccessible because the Trump administration is withholding tens of thousands of Kavanaugh-related documents. The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) is currently withholding some 20,000 documents–and has notified interested parties that releasing such documents in line with the mandated timeline provided by the nation’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) is unlikely to occur. Thousands of other Kavanaugh-related documents are presently being kept under wraps by the Department of Justice (DOJ)–which has so far refused to substantively answer FOIA requests as mandated by law. 900,000 pages is not enough to bury Kavanaugh's cover up of the Vince Foster murder. Release the dirt and defeat confirmation. Hondo68  posted on  2018-08-10   19:15:54 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   Replies to Comment # 1. #2.

But many of those papers are currently inaccessible because the Trump administration is withholding tens of thousands of Kavanaugh-related documents. Thi repulsive and disgusting propaganda is is half-assed garbage. The Trump administration is withholding nothing that has been properly requested by the Senate committee. The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) is currently withholding some 20,000 documents–and has notified interested parties that releasing such documents in line with the mandated timeline provided by the nation’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) is unlikely to occur. Here is where the propaganda bullshit becomes obvious to those familiar with the system. Why is the article citing the FOIA without explaining the bullshit nature of the article's propaganda? The standard procedure is for the committee to request the documents from the National Records and Archives Administration (NARA), and it does not involve the FOIA. A request was made by the committee for 900,000 pages of documents, and NARA has already begun reviewing and supplying them. Elections have consequences. As a result of the people electing a majority of Republicans to the Senate, all committee chairmen are Republicans, and all committees have Republican majorities. NARA reviews and provides the requested documents on a priority basis to the Commmittee, as requested by the Committee. NARA estimates it will take until the end of October to finish reviewing and providing the 900,000 pages requested by the Committee. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/national-archives-may-not-finish-reviewing-kavanaugh-documents-before-end-of-october/ National Archives may not finish reviewing Kavanaugh documents before end of October By Grace Segers CBS News August 2, 2018, 2:14 PM The National Archives informed the Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Thursday that his request for documents regarding Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh can't be fulfilled until the end of October. Chairman Chuck Grassley had asked for Kavanaugh's emails and paper filings from his time as Bush's associate White House counsel, and more documents pertaining to his nomination to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit. National Archives General Counsel Gary Stern pointed out that this request far exceeded past document requests for other Supreme Court Justice candidates. "The total volume of your request could be more than 900,000 pages," wrote general counsel Gary Stern. "By way of contrast, the total volume of records that NARA reviewed for the nomination of Justice Roberts was approximately 70,000 pages, and the volume for Justice Kagan's nomination was 170,000 pages." Grassley had requested the documents to begin rolling production by August 1, to be completed by August 15. Democrats had also requested more documents from the National Archives from Kavanaugh's time as staff secretary to Bush. Stern said that the National Archives would complete its review of the first 300,000 pages by August 20, but the remaining 600,000 would not be completed until the end of October 2018. [...] NARA does NOT provide similar review and release of documents on a priority basis to individual members of a committee. There is no provision for the individual members to bypass the committee and obtain the same services. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2018/08/03/national-archives-denies-schumer-request-for-kavanaugh-docs.html National Archives denies Schumer request for Kavanaugh docs By Bill Mears, Paulina Dedaj Fox News Auigust 3, 2018 The National Archives denied Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer’s request Friday for documents related to Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s time as staff secretary under George W. Bush. The head of NARA, archivist David Ferriero, in a letter to Schumer, says the requests for certain sensitive documents for Kavanaugh’s time as Bush staff secretary need to come from the Judiciary Committee’s office, per longstanding precedent. The committee is at odds over the scope of documents from that period, the number of which could run into the hundreds of thousands. Ferriero said the National Archives and Records Administration has declined to process similar requests from the lead Republicans on the Judiciary Committee in connection with the nominations of Attorney General Eric Holder and Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan during the administration of President Barack Obama. [snip] NARA declined to process an irregular request from Cryin' Chuck Shumer which did not follow proper protocol and get processed through the Judiciary Committee. The despicable Democrats are merely engaged in delaying tactics to push the nomination of the estimable Judge Kavanaugh past the midterm elections, in the desperate hope that they will then regain control of the Senate Judiciary committee and stop the nomination for unjustified partisan political reasons. In a disgusting move, these despicable Democrats have even called for the cessation of expediting the review process. https://www.nationalreview.com/bench-memos/senate-democrats-stop-expediting-release-of-kavanaughs-white-house-records/ Senate Democrats: Stop Expediting Release of Kavanaugh’s White House Records By Ed Whelan National Review August 10, 2018 12:16 PM The Senate Judiciary Committee will receive an unprecedented volume of White House records on Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination to the Supreme Court. I’ve already addressed (in these three posts) Senate Democrats’ transparently obstructionist claim that the Committee should delay the confirmation process by many months in order to obtain the millions of pages of documents that passed through Kavanaugh’s office when he was White House staff secretary. I’ll address here the slipshod arguments that Senate Democrats are making against the provision of records from Kavanaugh’s years as White House counsel. 1. As this Washington Post article reports, Democrats are complaining that President George W. Bush has a team of lawyers involved in reviewing the documents. The Post article quotes this tweet from Senator Dick Durbin: Take note: Unless it was produced by the National Archives, every document you see from Judge Kavanaugh’s White House tenure was selectively chosen for release by his former deputy, Bill Burck. This is not an objective process. As Democrats surely know, the president whose White House records have been requested is always part of the process. President Obama issued the executive order that governs the disclosure of presidential records under the Presidential Records Act. Consistent with the Act, that executive order authorizes a former president to make a claim of executive privilege regarding requested records, and it further specifies that executive privilege covers records that reflect “the deliberative processes of the executive branch.” [...] On August 2, Burck sent the Committee 45,083 documents totaling 125,035 pages and stated in a cover letter that “President Bush has no objection to making these presidential records available to the public, subject to any concerns that NARA [the National Archives and Records Administration] may have in that respect.” (As Burck pointed out, “President Bush is under no obligation to produce records of his Administration but has authorized this production to assist the United States Senate Committee on the Judiciary in its assessment of Judge Kavanaugh’s nomination to the United States Supreme Court.”) On August 8, Burck further informed the Committee that he had learned from NARA that it was unable to conduct the requested review promptly. Therefore, Burck continued, “in the interests of expediting appropriate access,” President Bush and his team “are producing to the Committee on a rolling basis commencing today publicly releasable versions of documents that, in our view, do not contain information covered by a Presidential Records Act exemption or applicable privilege.” 3. Senate Democrats are complaining that, pending the Bush team’s executive-privilege review and NARA’s own review, documents that have not yet been deemed to be publicly releasable are temporarily being provided to the Committee on a “committee confidential” basis. Hmmm, why would Senate Democrats complain that Committee members—including, of course, the Democrats on the Committee—are receiving documents more quickly than they otherwise would? The Democrats’ game of obstruction and delay is transparent. [snip] Of course, none of this had anything whatever to do with the FOIA. Why did the half-assed propaganda article not explain where the FOIA came into all this? Because it jacks the propaganda bullshit all to hell. Individual members of the Judiciary Committee can file FOIA requests as members of the public. Such individual requests from the public will not take precedent over the 900,000 page job that was dumped on NARA by the Judiciary Committee. If the workload exceeds the ability of NARA to meet demand within the time set by the FOIA, you just get to wait. It happens to everybody, even Chuck Shumer and his Cryin' Choir. Take a number and get in line. https://www.cnn.com/2018/08/08/politics/senate-democrats-brett-kavanaugh-documents/index.html Senate Democrats file FOIA for documents on Trump's Supreme Court nominee By Daniella Diaz CNN Updated 3:27 PM ET, Wed August 8, 2018 Washington (CNN) Senate Democrats on the Judiciary Committee filed several Freedom of Information Requests for records involving Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh during his time at the White House, the latest move in a partisan battle over trying to obtain documents related to the judge as part of his Senate confirmation process. "This extraordinary step is a last resort -- unprecedented and unfortunate but necessary to fully and fairly review Judge Kavanaugh's nomination," Sen. Richard Blumenthal, who's on the committee, said in a statement. "I regret that Chairman (Chuck) Grassley has left us with no other choice. We need these documents to do our job." Democrats are seeking records from Kavanaugh's time as an associate in the White House Counsel's office and as White House staff secretary. [...] The Freedom of Information Act requests were sent by Democratic Sens. Blumenthal, Feinstein, Patrick Leahy of Vermont, Dick Durbin of Illinois, Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island, Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota, Chris Coons of Delaware, Mazie Hirono of Hawaii, Cory Booker of New Jersey and Kamala Harris of California. Kavanaugh, who served as Bush's staff secretary for three years, touched thousands of documents during his time. Democrats have demanded all the documents from Kavanaugh's time at the White House for review ahead of his confirmation, a request Republicans have said is a "fishing expedition" and a "delay tactic" for a nominee some Republicans say some Democrats have no intention of considering.
