(1) Live tweeting the swearing in of Justice Kavanaugh, October 6, 2018.

The White House and then the Supreme Court will host the two ceremonies necessary for the Justice to take his seat on Monday.

#ThankYouSenators #GodBlessAmerica #Originalism 🇺🇸👨‍⚖️
(2) Brett M. Kavanaugh will soon be the 102nd Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the USA. He has earned this highest honor throughout his life, inspired by his trailblazing mother, Judge Martha Kavanaugh.

His title for these few hours is Associate Justice Designate.
(3) This statement from the Supreme Court explains the two ceremonies:
(4) The President has signed Justice Kavanaugh's Commission of Appointment aboard Air Force One, which is returning to Washington DC from a rally in Topeka, Kansas.
(5) Shortly before the WH ceremony begins, I expect a live broadcast of it will start at the WH website link below, and on the WH FB page and YT channel. I expect the SCOTUS ceremony will be private, with photos released afterward.

(6) Correction: The President's Kansas rally will start in about one hour. So I assume that the swearing in at the WH will occur without him there. I don't think he'll be back until after midnight, IDK. VP will host Justice Roberts at the WH.
(7) I had assumed that the WH ceremony would need to take place first, but I will do some more research and report back. Here he is arriving at the court just before 5.30pm.

(8) It's now being reported that Justice Kavanaugh has been sworn in.

I raise my glass and #DrinkToKav!
(9) My apologies. The Supreme Court statement I showed earlier doesn't mention a WH ceremony tonight. I am so excited and I was so used to that being done first that I didn't read it correctly. I expect that photos of the swearing in will be released soon.
(10) When the President arrives at his rally and announces the news, the crowd will raise the roof. Find a live feed and watch it now. The warm-up speeches are underway.
(11) First pictures:
(12) Justice Roberts administers the first of two oaths of office:
(13) Welcome, Justice Kavanaugh. We are optimists, too.

(14) Huge cheers at the rally as President Trump speaks about Justice Kavanaugh.

He announced that the WH ceremony will take place at 7pm Monday. (The Court is in session on Tuesday morning.)

That's the ceremony I want to live tweet for you.
(15) Official photos: The President signing Justice Kavanaugh's Commission of Appointment just before landing in Kansas.
(16) If you zoom in on the photo of the swearing-in by Justice Kennedy, all four Kavanaughs are smiling.
(17) WH statement: "Mrs. Ashley Kavanaugh held the family Bible. Justice Kavanaugh’s two daughters, Liza and Margaret, and his parents attended the ceremony. Justices Thomas, Ginsburg, Alito, and Kagan also attended."

The other justices in DC at the time attended. Good.
(18) Justice Kavanaugh's WH ceremony at 7pm tonight will be live streamed at the link below. By chance, his middle name, Michael, is also the name of the hurricane moving North toward Florida this week.

🇺🇸❤️Kavanaughs

(19) We've already marked the occasion with #BeersForBrett, but let's do it again.

Because God is good, beer is great, and people are crazy.

(1) #ConfirmKavanaugh updates thread #3 starting from 10/4/18.

A directory of my 10 Kavanaugh threads, and counting. (I know, I surprise myself sometimes.)

#JudgeKavanaugh will soon be #JusticeKavanaugh and the American Republic will be preserved. 🦅
(2) This WaPo reporter is incorrect about the vote being "scheduled for" Saturday. The earliest time a vote COULD be held is Saturday pm. There's no reason not to hold it on Sun/Mon IF we need Daines. I think we won't. Read my 5 tweets about him here:
(3) An excellent short explainer about the fact that Mitch has the votes:

(1) A directory of my Kavanaugh threads since July 9, 2018.

I never planned more than a couple of threads about him this year but, I shoulda known the Dems would try to destroy whoever was the nominee this time.

Well, he fought back. #AmericanOfTheYear #JusticeKavanaugh 🇺🇸
(2) Like Democrats, I'd already decided how I felt about him before his nomination was announced. I live-tweeted the announcement, which was a great event in itself.

(3) I followed Kavanaugh's progress over the summer and on September 22nd, I finally wrote a thread about the preparations for the all-important hearing on September 27th. It covers the hearing before the next thread started the day after.

(1) #PhotoThread for the #ConfirmKavanaugh process starting 10/3/18.
(2) Mitch laughing to himself about how absurd it is that he has to push his way through the crowd of reporters on 9/25/18.
(3) Sen Grassley is 85 years old. (Democrats have senators around that age, too.)

Today he had to hold onto a Capitol Police officer to reduce the risk of a reporter knocking him over. This has to stop. Senators must return to being able to walk around freely at work.

(2) First Lady Melania Trump is a natural in this important role.

She's one of those women whose face lights up whenever she is around children. God Bless our great First Lady.

(3) FLOTUS left Joint Base Andrews in her trademark high heels and arrived in Ghana wearing practical flats. She still looks sensational, whatever she happens to wear!

(1) Live tweeting the Senate tonight. @SenateMajLdr has to file cloture by a deadline tonight in order to hold the #ConfirmKavanaugh vote Saturday.

Watch the livestream and videos here:

(2) Cloture in the Senate is a procedural step that you can learn more about at the link below. The senate.gov website is the best resource for learning about Senate procedure and a lot more. Same for house.gov.

(3) Watching live Senate floor proceedings is boring as hell, as they pass bills for naming Post Offices, & so on. But every now & then, they confirm a SCOTUS judge. And this time, they will affirm our great #BillOfRights #DueProcess & the hard-won #RuleOfLaw. Seriously. 🇺🇸🦅

(1) Dennis Ketterer, Julie Swetnick, & Democrat insanity. #Loco

As an ex-liberal woman born in 1970, I feel I can offer an informed perspective on the issues raised by Ketterer in his statement.

The issues are relevant to #MeToo #HimToo & everything.

judiciary.senate.gov/press/rep/rele…
(2) Ketterer writes as a man who carries immense guilt for having had secret extramarital sexual relations with Swetnick 25 years ago.

His statement is full of comments about it, but it's not the main issue. His status as a 9yo male child sex abuse survivor will be ignored.
(3) Today's Dems are ABSOLUTELY fixated on sexual crimes that are male on female.

To the exclusion of every other type of sex crime.

I know many men who have been sexually abused by a woman, or a man, in adulthood, or childhood. I know many male domestic abuse survivors.
