I don’t know about you, but my attention is going to be on Louisiana Sen. John Kennedy during the upcoming confirmation hearings on some of Donald Trump’s cabinet nominees.
Kennedy’s pretty good at getting out in front of the crowd in his attempts to appear wise and all-knowing, but I’m going to be look for some consistency in his questioning of some of these nominees.
I concurred with him in one rare case when he took President Biden’s nominee for a U.S. District judgeship in Colorado to task for his lack of basic knowledge of the Brady motion.
The Brady motion is only the legal concept which holds that the prosecution must hand over potentially favorable (exculpatory) evidence to the defense in a criminal trial. Any fan of the movie My Cousin Vinny knows that.
But Biden’s nominee, KATO CREWS, who had served more than four years as a magistrate judge, did not.
Any first-year law student should know that but Crews thought it involved “something regarding the Second Amendment.”
Kennedy loves playing cat and mouse with witnesses in order to advance his own agenda.
It’s going to be interesting to see how he questions Matt Gaetz (attorney general) or Kristy Noem (Homeland Security) or Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. (Health and Human Services) during their CONFIRMATION HEARINGS.
I’m betting it will be much different. I predict a gentler, kinder John Neely Kennedy – one with kid gloves.



I’m no fan of Kennedy (and definatly not Trump) but he did also hammer a Trump nominee, Matthew Spencer Petersen in 2017.

Since he is a solid Trumper and party prostitute, that’s not a bet I would take the other side of-unless the bulk of his party abandons its fealty to Trump, of course.
I have come to learn that State Police gets their orders at times from District Attorneys and Judges in the direction of their investigations, or to drop investigations etc. In my view, State Police has been very political with the justice system, they decide what’s evidence or not. Articles like this, put the pieces to the puzzle together to show the corruption! “The truth, the whole truth so help me GOD” is a thing of the past. …or the gods of this world and when they mess up the taxpayers pick up the bill!
To have an idea of questions he may ask, look back at his questions(?) for Amy C Barrett during the Supreme Court nomination process. They were more like questions a mom would ask her son’s new girlfriend.
