I hope #trump impeachment is the SECOND task, not the first, accomplished after November 6. First in line, get #Kavanaugh off the #supremecourt. What an absolute disgrace.
Regardless of whether Judge Kavanaugh is confirmed, Dr. Ford coming forward was not for naught. She empowered victims. She put perpetrators on notice. She opened America’s eyes as to what can happen to girls. She told her truth. She opened the door for others to tell their truth.
I mean the American Bar Association is taking the unprecedented step of calling for a FBI investigation. How much more of a wake up call does our Senate need?
I have called for:
—Complete disclosure of all documents
—Subpoena Mark Judge
—Postpone the vote
Dr. Ford was credible & courageous.
What message will we send to our daughters & sons, let alone sexual assault victims?
The message I will send is this—I vote no. #RightSideofHistory
I’m just here to remind y’all that when a cop killed Brian Hundley, a jury found that the cop lied. Brett Kavanaugh threw out the verdict.
He didn’t cry.
He's crying because his whiteness, his maleness, his PRIVILEGE, his "promised" perfect future is being questioned, and society never prepared him for failure or for facing the consequences of his actions #KavanaughHearings
"He's supposed to be a Bill Cosby?" -- Lindsey Graham
In fact, Bill Cosby was low-key accused for decades, and even after the news against him broke, it took dozens of women for millions of Americans to believe he drugged and raped them.

It's reasonable to ask how does #Kavanaugh continue serving as a federal judge, much less on #SCOTUS after delivering such an openly partisan attack and identifying so unequivocally as an opponent of the Dem Party? He has validated those who see him as a GOP operative in a robe
So Kavanaugh has already confirmed that:
1) he was hiding his angry, aggressive side.
2) he's vengeful AF
3) he is a hyperpartisan activist judge whose loyalty will remain with his party, not the country.
4) He can't be on the SCOTUS. Not now, not ever.
Brett Kavanaugh is scaring the hell out of me after drinking just a half a glass of water. I can't imagine how scary he would be if he had 6 or 7 beers in him.
#KavanaughHearings
I have witnessed well over 500 witnesses testify in court and in deposition over the course of my career. There is no question that Dr. Ford is credible. This nomination must be withdrawn immediately and an honest, moral individual should be nominated. America deserves better.
The reason Republicans got today so wrong, which they keep on doing is because the party is an echo chamber of white, straight men. They have no clue what the life experiences are beyond their tiny circle of privilege.
