Melania Trump Raises Eyebrows With Tweet About Brett Kavanaugh's 'Honor'
Melania Trump was criticized after she tweeted about the “honor” of new Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
The first lady joined President Donald Trump for Kavanaugh’s ceremonial swearing-in on Thursday. She later used Twitter to congratulate Kavanaugh on his installation on the high court, adding: “I know you will continue to serve our country with honor.”
Congratulations Justice Kavanaugh. I know you will continue to serve our country with honor. 🇺🇸 pic.twitter.com/OuAosgrYoc

The comment raised eyebrows, given how Kavanaugh lied through his controversial confirmation process and furiously denied sexual assault allegations.
Honor?! You mean taking rights away from everyone who isn’t you?!

Honor??? You have NO IDEA what that word means, obviously.

Let me rephrase what you really mean. “Congratulations Justice Kavanaugh. I know you will continue to serve THE PRESIDENT with honor.”
