(Worthy News) – Evangelical backers of President Donald Trump have hailed the Senate’s confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh as a Supreme Court justice on Saturday.
Kavanaugh’s appointment was dogged by controversy after he was accused of sexual misconduct by a number of women including Christine Blasey Ford, who said he had attempted to rape her when they were both teenagers. He strongly denied the accusations and public opinion divided sharply on party lines. Evangelicals largely favoured Kavanaugh, whose appointment tips the bench decisively in a conservative direction.
Conservatives will now have a five-four majority in any future legal battles on contentious issues such as abortion rights, immigration, transgender rights, industry regulation and presidential powers. [ Source: Christian Today (Read More…) ]
