Urgent Message from Michael Reagan
Dear Fellow American:
These are the best of times. These are the worst of times.
Sure, the economy is roaring and our nation is at peace around the globe, thanks to President Trump.
But we are facing a deadly threat right here at home, to our most sacred values and to democracy itself.
The vicious media and Democratic attack on Brett Kavanaugh is the most disgusting thing I have seen in politics.
And I have seen a lot.
Let?s remember the facts here.
Brett Kavanaugh has been a model citizen and family man, a public servant and respected jurist.
He is truly smart.
He could have gone to a white-shoe law firm and cashed in big time. I?m talking millions here.
Instead he rejected that.
He wanted to serve his country as a judge. He wanted to defend our freedoms.
And he hoped someday to sit on the nation?s highest court.
And that American dream came true when President Trump looked at all the top candidates.
He picked just one: Brett Kavanaugh.
Why?
Well, the answer was simple. Kavanaugh was the best candidate.
Let?s not forget that before his nomination for the Supreme Court, conservative Kavanaugh was respected by all sides.
In fact, when he was nominated to the federal Appeals Court, the Senate approved him by a 57-36 vote.
In his long career he has been the target of media attacks because he was a top deputy for Independent Counsel Ken Starr.
The big media wanted Brett to pay a BIG price for taking on Bill and Hillary Clinton in the Whitewater scandal.
When President Trump nominated him to the Supreme Court he found a man who had a consistent conservative voting record, a brilliant judicial mind that has been compared to the late Antonin Scalia . . . and a man with an absolutely clean record.
After his nomination, and after no less than 6 full FBI background investigations over more than three decades, no one ever found anything bad about Brett Kevanaugh.
And no one said anything bad about him.
Nada. Zip. Zilch.
That was until September of this year, when the Democrats found themselves completely desperate.
They did not want the Supreme Court to be shaped for the next 30 years by the likes of pro-Trump conservative Brett Kavanaugh.
For two months they probed and prodded him. He came up clean. Ready to be confirmed.
Then, just two days before the Senate Judiciary Committee would vote to send his nomination to the full Senate, a bombshell hit.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California, a former mayor of San Francisco, dropped that bombshell.
She had received a letter in July, two months earlier, from a Christine Blasey Ford claiming that Brett Kavanaugh had assaulted her when she was 15 and he was 17.
An incident that allegedly happened 36 years ago.
What did Feinstein do? Did she immediately share the information with her fellow senators?
Or with the FBI?
NO!
She sat on it.
I believe she knew it was a weak and perhaps ridiculous claim.
But she also felt it could be insurance in case the Democrats could not stop Brett Kavanaugh through the normal process.
Rather than have the FBI properly look into these allegations early and in a confidential manner, Feinstein hid Blasey Ford?s allegations.
Why did she wait?
Well, by September, she and her fellow Democrats knew that die was almost cast.
Brett Kavanaugh was on the verge of becoming Donald Trump?s second nominee to the High Court.
Kavanaugh had to be stopped. At any cost.
For the Democrats, the Blasey Ford letter was their version of a Hail Mary pass.
So they ?leaked? details of the letter to The Washington Post.
Soon, the rest of the media went on a rampage against Brett Kavanaugh.
Shows on CNN and MNSBC described this fine man as a ?rapist? who had engaged in an ?attempted rape.?
The media seemingly didn?t care that Kavanaugh emphatically denied the incident even happened.
And they ignored the fact no law enforcement agency in the nation would think Blasey Ford?s account described an attempted rape.
Worse, Blasey Ford?s four witnesses all denied her claims they were ever at such a party she described.
The media didn?t care that she didn?t tell anyone ? close friends or family ? for 30 years about the supposed incident.
Blasey Ford claimed she didn?t want to go public, but she still can?t explain why this past summer she took the time and expense to have a polygraph test taken.
The media didn?t care that Blasey?s parents and siblings have refused to voice public support for her or her claims. (What do they know about her that we don?t?)
The media didn?t care that Blasey Ford has been an anti-Trump political activist who has donated to Bernie Sanders? campaign and far-left groups like ActBlue.
Instead of questioning Blasey Ford, the media has made her the poster woman for the ?Me Too? movement ? radical feminists who believe any man accused of assault or harassment is guilty simply because they say so.
Meanwhile, the accused, Judge Kavanaugh, was stripped of his most basic right ? the presumption every person in America is innocent until proven guilty.
That?s out the window. Scary, isn?t it?
The truth is the Democrats who hate President Trump want to make Brett political roadkill.
Blasey Ford?s testimony came up short. She still has offered no evidence and no corroboration. For anything.
Empty-handed, once again the media has to invent crimes.
The latest headlines on the case are that young Kavanaugh drank beer in college and chased girls. Amazing that this is now a ?crime?!
Frankly, all of this is one big liberal smoke bomb.
The truth is that the lib-Dem establishment wants to stop Kavanaugh from ever ruling from the High Court.
To stop him from ruling to support President Trump.
To stop him from ruling against the big unions.
To stop him from ruling in favor of human life.
To stop him from ruling against illegal aliens.
To stop him from ruling against criminals who want to harm us.
There is so much at stake here.
That?s why I am taking a stand. A stand with Brett Kavanaugh.
As chairman of The Conservative Trust of America, a national PAC supported by thousands of Americans like you, I want to fight for Brett Kavanaugh.
My late father, President Reagan, fought the liberal media and Democratic establishment his whole life.
I don?t think he ever saw anything as sick as the Kavanaugh attack ? and the despicable lengths to which the Democrats would go to destroy a decent man and a great American.
In the coming days the FBI will finish its investigation.
It will not give a definitive judgement on Brett Kavanaugh. Instead, it will give raw data on the information it has uncovered.
It will be for the Senate to judge that information and to vote.
They will decide Brett Kavanaugh?s fate.
But we can judge the Senate and hold them accountable.
That?s why I have asked The Conservative Trust of America to launch a nationwide effort to get citizens from across the country to express our outrage.
We need to let key senators who are wavering know they must vote for Brett Kavanaugh.
Several Republican senators like Jeff Flake are wavering.
And then some Democrats, like Joe Manchin in West Virginia, Jon Tester in Montana, and Joe Donnelly in Indiana, are running in red states Donald Trump won big in 2016.
These Democrats are very vulnerable.
We need to hold their feet to the fire!
The Conservative Trust of America is planning to launch a multimillion-dollar campaign this week across the nation to demand the Senate back Kavanaugh.
I have helped pull together some of the best political minds and strategists in the country.
Frankly, this is going to come down to 3 Senate votes that we need to confirm Brett Kavanaugh.
Liberal groups are already pouring billions into stopping Brett Kavanaugh.
One liberal group has already threatened to spend $1.3 million against Republican Sen. Susan Collins if she votes for Kavanaugh.
This is out-and-out political extortion.
We need to fight back against such dirty threats.
