Unfuckingbelievable

Democrats can't get Kavanaugh's records from his time working for W. Bush.
Democrats want the National Archives to release documents and emails from [Supreme Court nominee Brett] Kavanaugh's time as staff secretary, arguing it would shed light on his thinking about issues such as torture and surveillance.

[...]

The National Archives, in a letter to Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.), said it will only respond to a request for documents under the Presidential Records Act (PRA) if they come from a committee chairman, who are all Republicans.

The National Archives and Records “remains unable to respond to PRA special access requests from ranking minority members,” wrote Archivist David Ferriero, who was appointed by former President Obama.

  The Hill
Thanks Obama.
Republicans have refused to include the three-year period in their own requests to the National Archives.
Why??? Nothing suspicious in that.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
