On today’s episode of the Caffeinated Thoughts Podcast, Shane Vander Hart discusses the upcoming confirmation vote on Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination to the Supreme Court now that a cloture vote has passed. 

U.S. Senators Susan Collins (R-ME) and Joe Manchin (D-WV) say they will vote yes guaranteeing his confirmation.

U.S. Senator Ben Sasse (R-NE) addressed #MeToo movement in light of judicial nominations and how the Senate is not in a good place. 

Plus, U.S. Senator Chris Coons (D-DE) said the Senate Judiciary Committee and the FBI did not look for corroboration of claims made against Kavanaugh.

Then, Shane has a conversation with Jake Porter, the Libertarian Party nominee for Governor of Iowa. He explains why he is running, why you should vote for him, and why he should be allowed to debate.
