Holder questions legitimacy of Supreme Court after Kav confirmation (opens to video)
2018-10-07
[FOX] Obama-era Attorney General Eric Holder reacted to the confirmation of Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court Saturday by questioning the legitimacy of the court and arguing that it needed to regain the nation's trust.

Holder -- who served as the nation’s top lawyer under former President Barack Obama from 2009 to 2015 -- said the treatment of former Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland by Senate Republicans, as well as Kavanaugh’s confirmation, meant the legitimacy of the court was in question.

"With the confirmation of Kavanaugh and the process which led to it, (and the treatment of Merrick Garland), the legitimacy of the Supreme Court can justifiably be questioned," he tweeted. "The Court must now prove - through its work - that it is worthy of the nation’s trust."

#9  At least he speaks much more than Sessions. Now that Trump has the Supremes ïn his corner and the pubs p/o'ed at the Dims, he should start saying, "You're Fired!" to some key dead beats and cut throats.

"The left doesn't own the SC anymore so it can't be legitimate."

Eat a dick, bozo.

According to Holder, the Court must prove it is innocent of charges.
