Ted Lieu: If Brett Kavanaugh can be this angry on national TV...

81. But none of that was in questioning yesterday.

Most were calling her a victim of the system too. The RW talking heads certainly have said it, but none of the GOP questioning yesterday ever accused her of lying. Both have received threats against them up to even DEATH.
I know we are members of a partisan site; we're ALL partisans with our beliefs. But that doesnt mean that you have to leave objectivity at the door either. I try to view every story with objectivity. And the bad optics of the committee having this info for weeks and never mentioning it to the nominee looks AWFUL. They should have immediately gone to him and asked for an explanation. On top of that Dr Ford says she was NEVER told of the offer for the interview to be done at her location. Not her fault, but why wasnt she told?
Vote against him because of his ideology, sure, but not because of this. If this succeeds, the future for any Dem nominee will be equally invasive and ridiculous. Wait till nominees are picked 20 yrs from now & the impact of social media of their youth comes up!!
Look how many members of Congress have paid off sexual harassment claims in recent years that were kept quiet. Dem & GOP together. Why are they still in office? Sure, a few are gone (Franken should have NEVER resigned) but the rest remain. Where are THOSE investigations.
