U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit

The D.C. Circuit ordered Judge Emmet G. Sullivan to respond by June 1 to Michael Flynn’s petition to have him removed from the case.

The White House won its appeal Friday against a lower court ruling that would have allowed the Democrat-run the U.S. House of Representatives to compel the testimony of former White House counsel Don McGahn.

House Democrats are still hoping to impeach President Donald Trump over allegations resulting from Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report earlier this year into “Russia collusion,” though Mueller found none existed.

The American Bar Association (ABA) rated Judge Brett Kavanaugh “well qualified” for the U.S. Supreme Court on Friday, the highest rating possible from the organization that Senate Democrats call the “gold standard” for nominees.

Democrat senators are resorting to extreme rhetoric in their attempts to derail the Brett Kavanaugh nomination, saying his confirmation will lead to “tyranny,” cause “the destruction of the Constitution,” and that any colleagues who vote for him are “complicit in evil.”
