Andy Borowitz: Kavanaugh Asks If Anyone Has Seen Briefcase He Accidentally Left at Bar Last Week

Borowitz adds:  The jurist said that, after work last Friday, he dropped into a bar near the Supreme Court “to have a few pops,” and inadvertently forgot to take his briefcase when he left.

Here again, everyone on Earth has access to the two basic facts that conspire to make this hilarious:

– Someone leaked the decision on the abortion rights case to the press, and this is regarded as a national catastrophe, with everyone and his dog desperate to identify the person responsible.

– Kavanaugh has at least some involvement with alcohol, and it’s easy to speculate that it’s causing a level of impairment in judgement, memory, etc.

Again, only Borowitz was able to intertwine these two, to the great amusement of a country in desperate need of a good laugh.
