He has been negotiating with Trump for months about the right to name his replacement. There was a flurry of 5-4 decisions that Kennedy cast the deciding vote on just a few weeks ago, including a case directly involved Trump, Trump v Hawaii. He sold his vote to Trump so he could name his replacement, this man should be investigated now!

Source familiar tells NBC that Justice Kennedy had been in negotiations with the Trump team for months over Kennedys replacement. Once Kennedy received assurances that it would be Kavanaugh (his former law clerk) Kennedy felt comfortable retiring - @LACaldwellDC & @frankthorp

Easily enough evidence to set aside the decisions until a full investigation is concluded. Kennedy was the deciding vote on a flurry of controversial cases a few weeks ago, ruling in favor of Trump in Trump v Hawaii among a hand full of other cases that surprisingly went for the Conservative cause.
Even the appearance of this is enough to investigate. This is a massive scandal, I wonder if the press even cares anymore.

(19,066 posts)I know the Constitution doesn't allow for this, but Thomas is obviously compromised, Gorsuch was a stolen seat, and now Kavanaugh had Kennedy bribe his way onto the court. Those 3 should be removed.
