Aug. 23, 2018 Tweet - "Judge Kavanaugh was strident during the investigation of President Clinton. Years later while working in the Bush WH, he changed his tune on presidential investigations.

Aug. 22, 2018 Tweet - "In 2010, the public was able to see 99% of Justice Kagan's record from her time in the Clinton White House. Fast forward to 2018, and the public has seen only 2% of Judge Kavanaugh's record from his time in the Bush White House. #WhatAreTheyHiding" Sen.Dick Durbin
Aug. 22, 2018 Tweet - "Judge Kavanaugh worked in the Bush WH for 5 years, 35 months as Staff Secretary. He called that time "formative" for his career as a judge.

Aug. 18, 2018 Tweet - "The process Republicans have chosen to follow for the Kavanaugh nomination is unprecedented for a Supreme Court Justice, riddled with hypocrisy, and lacks transparency. #WhatAreTheyHiding" Sen.Dick Durbin
Aug. 17, 2018 Tweet - "Right now, the White House is saying to the American people: critical documents about Judge Kavanaugh's decisions as a top staffer to President Bush are just like President Trump's tax returns. None of your business." Sen.Dick Durbin
Aug. 17, 2018 Tweet - "Even in the small percentage of docs made available to the Judiciary Comm thru the partisan process led by Kavanaugh's former deputy, we have found info raising serious concerns regarding Judge Kavanaugh's '06 noms hearing, where we believe he misled the Senate #ReleasetheRecords" Sen.Dick Durbin
Aug. 16, 2018 Tweet - "Take note: Republicans are trying to ignore the plain words of what Judge Kavanaugh said under oath in 2006: "I was not involved and am not involved in the questions about the rules governing detention of combatants." This statement covers his time as WH Staff Secretary." Sen.Dick Durbin
Aug. 16, 2018 Tweet - "Don't be fooled: Judge Kavanaugh's record is being scrubbed by a GOP lawyer who was Kavanaugh's WH Deputy, who is picking & choosing which Kavanaugh docs to share. Not transparent, not objective, & not part of the non-partisan National Archives process." Sen.Dick Durbin
