Mike Lee, Supreme Court History, and the Ginsburg Rule
Senator Mike Lee provided a historical overview of Supreme Court confirmation hearings, noting they only began in 1916 with Louis Brandeis. He detailed how nominees like Felix Frankfurter and Potter Stewart historically declined to answer specific questions about future rulings. Lee argued that the modern "Ginsburg Rule" of not offering "hints or previews" is being ignored by Democrats demanding specific commitments from Kavanaugh.
