President Trump Announces His Supreme Court Justice Replacement

Brett Kavanaugh, appeals court judge, speaks after being nominated as an associate justice of the U.S. Supreme Court by U.S. President Donald Trump, not pictured, during a ceremony in the East Room of the White House in Washington, D.C., U.S., on Monday, July 9, 2018. Trump said he would nominate Kavanaugh for a seat on the U.S. Supreme Court, a choice that could create the most conservative court in generations and threaten landmark rulings including the Roe v. Wade abortion-rights decision. Photographer: Andrew Harrer/Bloomberg via Getty Images
