Clinton Denies Blocking Kavanaugh

The New York Sun reports Senator Hillary Clinton’s office denies that she filed the objection that sent Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination back to the White House. Kavanaugh’s supporters are unconvinced. Kavanaugh was the only Bush judicial nominee whose nomination was returned at the close of the Senate session. The remaining pending judicial nominations were all held over by unanimous consent.
