The Frankish Reich Posted Tuesday at 05:12 PM Posted Tuesday at 05:12 PM What we know about what's in the Gaetz report, from leaks, etc.: - YES, he did help organize and did attend and joyously participate in what would colloquially be called sex orgies. - YES, those orgies did bring in paid young female attendees, colloquially referred to as prostitutes - YES, Gaetz did joyously have sex with these prostitutes, apparently in full view of others - YES, Gaetz did share photos and/or videos of his sexual conquests with colleagues on the House floor - YES, Gaetz did have sex with a 17 year old, apparently at the time unaware that she was a minor, and then, showing the good judgment he is known for, refrained from sexual contact with her until after her 18th birthday. Wonderful man, wonderful choice. Jesus does love the sinner. Like father (Trump) like son (Gaetz). 1 1

I assume you are talking about Kagan. I’m not sure about her qualifications. But AG is a little different. To be qualified for the position of Attorney General, a candidate typically needs a significant amount of legal experience, usually including several years of post-J.D. practice in complex litigation, substantial knowledge of constitutional law, and often experience in high-level legal advisory roles; this could translate to a decade or more of practice depending on the specific jurisdiction and the individual's career path. The Constitution doesn't specify any formal qualifications for a Supreme Court Justice. However, the Department of Justice and members of Congress have developed informal criteria. The American Bar Association says that a nominee should be a preeminent member of the legal profession with exceptional legal ability and experience. 1
B-Man Posted Tuesday at 05:17 PM Posted Tuesday at 05:17 PM A frequent Gaetz critic says yes. A good sign. 2

Change the sponsor, change the nominee, change the people outraged. It's pretty much always a "little different". 2

She was the Solicitor General for less than 18 months when she joined the SC and had barely been the SG for a full year when she was nominated to the court. And regardless of how much you say her being a judge prior to joining the SC didn't matter; she had never heard a single case before joining the highest court in the land. 1

She was an esteemed law professor before that. Graduated summa ***** laude from Princeton, magna ***** laude from Harvard Law. She clerked for Justice Marshall. She became Dean of Harvard Law School.

And regardless of how much you say her being a judge prior to joining the SC didn't matter; she had never heard a single case before joining the highest court in the land. 64 Supreme court justices never went to law school. Many of the Supreme Court’s most important decisions involve matters of moral or political importance, not fine points of law. “Once we recognize that the Supreme Court is America’s authoritative faculty of political theorists and not a mere court of law, then we can readily see that the necessity for formal legal training is no greater for Supreme Court justices than for officers of the other branches of government,” wrote George Washington University law professor Arthur Miller and his associate Jeffrey Bowman in a 1986 Vanderbilt Law Review article, “Break the Monopoly of Lawyers on the Supreme Court.” 1
