By raging he's being framed by a Clinton revenge plot conspiracy, Kavanaugh echoed Trump propagandists discrediting Mueller & Russia probe. That in itself is disqualifying from sitting on the Supreme Court. It also proves he won't be an impartial arbiter on those & other matters. 
Forget the alleged sexual assault & lies for a moment. Kavanaugh's partisan rant about a left-wing smear conspiracy is so off-the-rails improper for someone whose job is literally to DISPASSIONATELY & fairly interpret facts & law before him. And he wants a promotion to SCOTUS??
Maybe #Kavanaugh's not a conspiracy theorist. But he is consciously echoing Trump. He altered strategy from choir-boy Fox interview b/c Trump didn't like it. Kav's already bending to the executive who named him, like the political operative he is at heart. And will be on SCOTUS.
Whoa: Someone inside Trump Admin wrote an anonymous op-ed saying insiders are thwarting him: āI Am Part of the Resistance Inside the Trump Administration. We work for the president but we have vowed to thwart parts of his agenda and his worst inclinationsā nytimes.com/2018/09/05/opiā¦
Senior Trump official: "Our duty is to this country, and the president continues to act in a manner that is detrimental to the health of our republic. [We] vowed to do what we can to preserve our democratic institutionsā¦[He's] amoral, impetuous, adversarial, petty, ineffective."
Exasperated Trump admin officials admit their daily disbelief at Trumpās comments and actions. āMost are working to insulate their operations from his whims.ā This @nytimes op-ed confirms the Woodward bookās remarkable details of Trumpās unfitness & danger to the country.
If Republicans think they're doing Trump's bidding, that's only half the story. They're doing Putin's bidding. Instead of praising Bruce Ohr for fighting Russian organized crime, they try to discredit him and his work. This is why people call GOP traitors. nytimes.com/2018/08/27/us/ā¦
Comey, McCabe, Strzok, now Ohr. Republicans say it's no coincidence Bruce Ohr was at the center of much in the Russia probe. Well, duh, he investigates Russian organized crime, and Putin's runs a mafia state, so yeah, no coincidence. politico.com/story/2018/08/ā¦ #inners #maddow
#Maddow reviews stellar career of Bruce Ohr leading investigations of Russian organized crime, including top criminal Mogilevich. Ohr was also one of the officials to revoke Deripaska's US visa. And now he's the object of conspiracy theories on right-wing media on a 24-hour loop.
Going in @ICEgov detention center in SoCal to meet still-separated dad Ascencion who signed form saying he didnāt want to be reunited with his 15 year old son ā says he didnāt know what he was signing.
Iām with his lawyers from @ImmDef.
Not sure if ICE will let me meet him.

No luck.
We were met by these agents from ICE and Geo Group, private prison that runs Adelanto.
Guy on left said they were expecting me but I couldnāt get in to see Ascencion despite advance notice.
Waited three hours while attorneys went in.
ICE says maybe next week.

Ascencion sent out this letter for me to read:
Theyāre deporting me without me knowing. The government is treating me very badly. Iām being ignored.
The separation is affecting me a lot. I donāt know that I will ever forget this. I am going crazy. I am in an inhumane situation.

Expecting update today from Trump administration on status of family reunifications.
Waiting on new numbers of how many kids are still separated.
Last count: 2,551.
Hoping, too, for *any* info on how many of their parents already deported.
As @maddow says, watch this space.

BREAKING: In court filing, Trump administration says 719 parents of the 2,551 still-separated children have a "final order of removal," meaning they could be immediately deported after reunification.
@LindsayTozzzz of @ImmDef just told me āthat's a pretty horrifying statistic."

NEW: 7 days until migrant family reunification deadline.
Government says only 14% of kids have been reunited.
1/3 of parents could be deported right after reunification.
Latest, with @JuliaEAinsley.

Trump may be an intellectual moron, but he's a helluva puppet. He discredits rule-of-law democracy, divides us from allies, AND 2yrs after Russia's info warfare disrupted & shockingly tipped our election, the puppet STILL pushes Putin's big gaslight lieānone of it ever happened.
šØTrump continues to advance Russian interestsāNOT ours: Y'day, he pushed Putin's lie that Russia didn't "meddle." (Even GOP Senate Intel Cmte concluded Russia attacked our democracy to rig the election for Trump.) Today, Trump again floats Russia's claim to Crimea is negotiable.
#BREAKING Trump gives in, drafts Executive Order to temporarily stop separating families at the border, per @MSNBC. So no more children as political hostages. But theyāll continue treating refugees as a whole as criminals? #CollectivePunishment #WorldRefugeeDay #Immigration
Trump: We have to be tough. Otherwise weāll be overrun with people & crime.
So open cruelty may end but apparently āzero toleranceā wonāt. 2500 children have already been separated from families. Crisis & incompetence remains as long as US criminalizes refugees. #WorldRefugeeDay

āI do thank you for your leadershipāāDHS @SecNielsen begins AND ends her photo-op speech w/ Trump ostensibly ending family separation policy, eating her āthere is no policyā words with an icky sycophant sandwich. (āSycophant Sandwichā also a good caption for photoā¦because Pence)
Iām a part of the first group of journalists to go into the shelter for detained child migrants in Brownsville Texas since the zero tolerance separation policy was announced. 1000+ boys here.
Going in right now.

Just finished tour, donāt even know where to start.
One of the first things you notice when you walk into the shelter ā no joke ā a mural of Trump with the quote āsometimes losing a battle you find a new way to win the war.ā
Presidential murals everywhere. But that one is 1st.

This shelter, Casa Padre, is the largest licensed childcare facility of its kind in the country. Nearly 1,500 boys 10-17 in here now. Theyāre supposed to sleep four to room. Nearly every room has 5. Theyāve received a variance from the state because of overcrowding.
As @ianbassin said on #inners there was a hearing yesterday which, "was the first time that Trump lawyers stood up in open court to answer questions about the #Russia conspiracy and amazingly the Trump legal team didn't push back very hard on the idea of a conspiracy." 1/

Trump's admin has made life exceedingly difficult for people like me who are fighting #cancer & dealing with extreme medical costs.
Obama said in 2009 that he hated watching his mother forced to work to pay bills as she fought for her life.
Many of us are still doing this.

Now Trump wants to make yet another critic of #ACA--the only buffer sick & #disabled Americans have until we get #UHC--head of HHS.
#AlexAzar is an actual lobbyist for #BigPharma.
And cut his legal teeth--he's a lawyer--working for #KenStarr investigating the Clintons.

Anyone who thinks sick/#disabled people are going to get a fair shake under this presidency aren't thinking clearly. And while I know we have more Russia news and
more sexual abuse claims today, this appointment impacts EVERY SINGLE AMERICAN WHO IS NOT RICH and it's barely news.
