October 5, 2018 Retired Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens Opposes Kavanaugh ----------------------------------------------------------------- On Thursday, retired Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens told an audience of retirees in Florida that he now opposes Kavanaugh's confirmation. John Paul Stevens: "I've changed my views for reasons that have no relationship to his intellectual ability or his record as a federal judge-he's a fine federal judge and he should have been confirmed when he was nominated… But I think his performance during the hearings caused me to change my mind." .
