(1) Special #TeamTrump #PhotoThread: Trump's second #SCOTUSnominee, announced July 9, 2018. #PromisesMadePromisesKept #RedWave #VoteGOP
(2) It's time. #SCOTUSPick
(3) #SCOTUSPick
(5) "And now, Judge, the podium is yours."
Judge Kavanaugh's family have been beaming with pride the whole time.
(7) Official WH press release:

(8) The man who will ensure that Senators #ConfirmKavanaugh:
(9) The moment POTUS announced Kavanaugh was his #SCOTUSpick this time:
(10) Kavanaugh: "My judicial philosophy is straightforward. A judge must be independent, & must interpret the law, not make the law. A judge must interpret statutes as written, & a judge must interpret the Constitution as written, informed by history and tradition and precedent."
(11) POTUS paid tribute to Mrs Scalia, and Edwin Meese at the event. If you don't know what Meese has done for the USA, look him up. An outstanding man.
(12) We will #ConfirmKavanaugh. No doubt about it.
(13) Onlookers described the atmosphere in the East Room as "electric."
(14) The moment when the audience gave a standing ovation, including the elderly Ed Meese, seated to the right of Mrs Scalise. Historic.
(15) Pic & POTUS quote, Dan Scavino: “The Rule of Law is our Nation’s proud heritage. It is the cornerstone of our Freedom. It is what guarantees equal justice - and the Senate now has the chance to protect this glorious heritage by sending Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the #SCOTUS.”
(16), Oops, I got the spelling wrong for two amazing wives of Italian American legal and political overachievers, Mrs Scalia and Mrs Scalise. Testament to how many outstanding people are on the conservative side!
(17) This photo is just crying out for #ElectricPence and #CocaineMitch meme treatment.
(18) Rudy was so overjoyed by the occasion he needed to mop his brow.
(19) #MAGA
(20) POTUS kept saying things that made the whole family laugh. I bet he has some great #DadJokes.
(21) What a fabulous family photo with the President. Love it!
(22) Love, hope and joy. In spades.
(23) Americans voted for #RuleOfLawJudges at every level. Thank you President Trump.
(24) I'm pleased that Ed Meese was able to see another great step toward restoring #originalism in America, which has been his life's work. Good things take time!
(25) The moment Judge Kavanaugh walked into the room.
(26) TFW you see the new Judge, who worked on the Whitewater and Clinton Impeachment investigations, and has a stellar record of going after public corruption in general. #StealthElf works in secret... all will be well. #MAGA
(27) #StealthGnome was also there, and no doubt very pleased with the new SCOTUS nomination. Rosenstein, Giuliani, Sessions, Trump... all members of the vast right wing conspiracy to restore originalism through #RuleOfLawJudges.
(28) Brett, Ashley, Margaret and Liza Kavanaugh look on as the President signs the nomination papers.
(29) Transcript of the speeches by the President and Judge Kavanaugh:

(30) Endorsements or support for #ConfirmKavanaugh from Senators, Congressmen & women, Pres. Bush, Governors, Lt Governors, State Attorneys General, interest groups, and even media representatives.

(31) Really nice video clip:
(32) Retweeted by social media star @senorrinhatch. (And don't @ me about Sen McCain, I agree with you. @MeghanMcCain is her own person, and is gaining quite a following. It's a GOOD thing that all these conservatives are starting to show some unity.)
