Clearing the Tabs January 31, 2024

Here are some things I've read so far this month or will be reading soon.

- - - - -

This may be the stupidest take I have seen during this confirmation battle. It is just totally pointless and ridiculous.

Honestly, if Kavanaugh could drink as much as the Dems claim he did and stilll graduate high school and college at the top of his class — that’s the guy I want on the Supreme Court!
