Kavanaugh Releases Surprise Op-Ed Before Confirmation Vote

Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh penned an op-ed in The Wall Street Journal on Thursday ahead of his confirmation vote this weekend, pledging that he will be a fair and impartial judge on the nation’s highest court.

Kavanaugh stressed that “a good judge must be an umpire—a neutral and impartial arbiter who favors no political party, litigant or policy” and who is not “swayed by public pressure.”
