I Don't Have A Title For This Episode (The Ephrom Josine Show Ep. 137)

Make Sure Your Representative Is Against Sexual Assault (The Midterm Special Part 1 Of 4)

Note: This is the first of four columns that will be released every Monday leading up to the 2018 midterm elections. 

On Sunday, Senator Lindsey Graham went on Face The Nation to talk about the FBI investigating Brett Kavanaugh. During that interview, he made it clear there is nothing the FBI could find that would make him change his mind on Kavanaugh. This was happening while Kavanaugh was under investigation for rape. 

Meanwhile, in the Senate, Jeff Flake has already said he would not let the FBI investigate if he were up for reelection in 2018. Jeff Flake, despite having his term up, decided to not run for reelection because of things like this. (Although he's almost certainly doing a presidential run in either 2020 or 2024) Linsey Graham will also not be up for reelection until 2020.

However, that doesn't mean the pro-sexual assault (or at least not anti-sexual assault) congressmen don't walk among us everywhere we go. 

Senator Ted Cruz, one of the least likable men in politics, for instance, voted against the reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act. Why? Because the gays would also get protection under the new version. The horror.  

So before going to vote make sure the person representing you also doesn't think it's good to have sex with someone without permission. 

No Michael: Here's All Of The Evidence Against Brett Kavanaugh

Recently Daily Wire pretend journalist Micheal Knowles wrote an article called "Here's All Of The Evidence Against Brett Kavanaugh". The entire article is blank. Get it? Because I guess there just isn't any proof against Kavanaugh. Which is odd considering there's quite a bit of proof against Kavanaugh. 

In 2002 Dr.Ford told her husband she was assaulted 16 years earlier by a then private citizen she went to a party with named Brett Kavanaugh. In 2012 she told a doctor the same story, by that point Kavanaugh was a judge on a court of appeals. 

Ford also passed a lie detector test, something Brett has refused to even try. So I think it's fair to say who is the more trustworthy one in this situation.  

So . . . Let's Talk About Brett Kavanaugh

So it's official. The president wants to make Judge Brett Kavanaugh the next Justice for the Supreme Court. So I figured it's fair that we actually look at the man Trump appointed and see what it says about the person who appointed him. So here are 5 things you need to know about the new Justice. 
1. He's Best Buddies With George W. Bush
Kavanaugh was one of the main voices that led to the outcome in the Bush v. Gore case. Bush then went and appointed him to the DC court of appeals. So, he basically owes most of his career to the second Bush.
He was also buddies with Karl Rove who praised Trump for choosing him. Here's Brett being buddies with Karl Rove:

But remember, Donald Trump is anti-establishment. 
2. Pro-Lifers Love This Guy
To give Brett credit, he did say he doesn't want to overturn Roe v. Wade. However, that doesn't anti-abortion groups aren't in love with this guy. Meanwhile, the only case he's ever done involving abortion was when he said an illegal immigrant could not get one. He's a blank slate, and that could mean anything. But his ties make many afraid he could go in the wrong direction.   
3. Believes Obamacare Is Unconstitutional 
Yes, a supreme court justice disagrees with the supreme court. Even though they determined the ACA was allowed Brett disagrees. Again, someone on the Supreme Court should more than likely understand how the court works. He also isn't a fan of net neutrality.
But don't worry. He does support the NSA. So at least he has that down.
4. He Was One Of The Main Voices In The Effort To Impeach Bill Clinton
Yup, another Republican lawyer who took place in trying to impeach Bill Clinton. Although he happens to also be against the Muller investigation. If you can't tell, he's kind of a partisan hack. 
5. He Takes The Constitution Literally, Except When He Doesn't 
If you watched Trump announce his pick for the court you would know the thing he values the most is someone who likes the constitution as is. Yet, NPR found him saying he supports "the spirit of the law" as well as the letter. Which means he believes the law is whatever he thinks it should be.   So that's everything you need to know about Brett Kavanaugh. In conclusion, god help us.
