I know right?...why would a Federal Judge with a spotless record(or anyone for that matter) with a Mom, wife and two young daughters get emotional the day after being publicly accused, during what should be one of the proudest moments of their lives, of having orchestrated "rape trains" ?

Just so we’re clear here... that was referring to emotionally replying, not orchestrating rape trains

Being mad is one thing, blaming it on a political hit job which was a favor to the clintons and then lying about other parts of your life is entirely another.

Like I said, I don’t think I can blame him, but the fact that he did what he did certainly hurt his chances of being confirmed.

My bet is that they find out he blacked out over and over and he doesn’t make it through confirmation on the basis of the fact that he lied.

He seems to have lied about his role in Bush’s admin and about stolen dem documents for a start. Also seems pretty clear he’s misled n his youth not even counting the assault allegations.

But even putting all that aside. His partisan statement on the left, democrats and the Clintons destroys any inkling he could be impartial on the bench.

There is zero chance he has never drank so much in a night that he doesn’t remember part of the evening. Zero.

He could have easily just been honest about the level of partying he had done in high school/college and still made it in with the amount of partisan support he had.

An increasingly well informed one. We’ll see how factual it is come Friday.

Good luck, seems like the admin isn’t going to let the FBI do their job.

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) is calling for Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh's nomination to be withdrawn following two sexual misconduct allegations against him.

Gillibrand on Sunday tweeted her support for Deborah Ramirez, the woman who hours earlier went public in The New Yorker with her accusations against Kavanaugh. Ramirez is alleging that Kavanaugh exposed himself without her consent when the two attended Yale University together in the 1980s.



"Enough is enough," she continued. "One credible sexual assault claim should have been too many "

"Two is an embarrassment," she added.
