I doubt it, they aren't allowing discussion of his record or his actions, so what else is there?

Grassley is a piece of excrement.

He can be impeached along with Trump. The charge? Being appointed by an illegitimate president and considered under a corrupt Republican Senate speaker.

Our best hope is that our guys find something that even the Repugnants cannot stomach about him and even that's slim.
No, what I think we need to do is have our guys take the gloves off once we regain the Senate majority and the Presidency and increase the number of justices to 17 and pack the court with our own picks and if they have to do it with 51 then so be it.

can be abrogated by our soon majority passing legislation that negates the impact that this racist Supreme Courts will try to enact. Tale away Roe vs Wadec1, pass legislation creating Roe v Wade 2. Right and don't Democrats have the ability to research and find legislative procedures that can slow down these RW racist clowns from taking rights away from women, and POC by installing a Kavanaugh? There has to be a way.
