Below is just a sample of what Jim presented to listeners on this edition of our weekly round-up and comment program.

--13 left-wing groups have scolded Democratic Senator Chuck Schumer for failing the progressive base by not blocking Judge Brett Kavanaugh's nomination to the Supreme Court.
--New Jersey Democrat Senator Cory Booker made a scene at the Kavanaugh hearing, daring Republicans to expel him from the Senate, vowing to knowingly break Senate rules by releasing confidential committee documents and accuse Kavanaugh of having something to hide. As it turns out, the documents that Booker released had already been cleared for publication at 4am that morning. So Booker wasn't breaking any rules, he was merely 'grandstanding'.
--A new document has been released indicating that Brett Kavanaugh is possibly open to overturning Roe v. Wade.
--During questioning, Kavanaugh told the Senate that the government cannot force Christian groups to pay for abortions.
--Under questioning from pro-life Senator Lindsey Graham, Kavanaugh confirmed that there's no specific right to abortion in the Constitution.
--Mat Staver of Liberty Counsel has indicated that there are paid protesters at the Kavanaugh hearings.
--The ideological balance of the U.S. 6th and 7th Circuit Courts has been shifted from liberal to conservative thanks to judicial nominees elected by President Donald Trump with more on the horizon.

--A plan in Scotland was proposed to let people simply self-identify as either a man, woman or something else, alleviating them of any obligation to undergo counseling or treatment.
