Sen. Cory Booker Releases 'Confidential' Kavanaugh Documents
Summary from the AllSides News Team
Democratic Sen. Cory Booker on Thursday released a series of documents he claimed were confidential relating to Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, saying “this is the closest I’ll get to an ‘I am Spartacus’ moment.” The move evoked wide criticism from Senate Republicans, prompting them to point out that the emails in question had already been approved for release. Booker then introduced additional documents on Thursday night that were still marked "committee confidential", violating Senate rules. Many on the Right have said that Booker is merely grandstanding for a potential presidential run, while some on the Left have argued that he is effectively standing up to Trump.
