How anyone of his supposed stature could get this far is beyond understanding! He is a weak, spoiled little boy who has ridden the coat tails of his parents. His body language and speech tells us of his guilt. Supreme Court Judge..... UH.... NO !
His opening statements were emotional and relatable, but after that Judge Kavanaugh comes across as uncooperative and defiant. Dodging questions, deflecting, and filibustering answers. I fully appreciate that his reputation, and the emotional stability of his family is being affected by this whole process. But he's given every opportunity by the Dems to clear his name by calling for an FBI investigation, and asking that witnesses be heard, and he keeps saying the FBI investigation is meaningless, and it's up to the committee. Not once does he show he's willing to do anything to clear his name. It just comes across as he's got something to hide.
Matt Damon did a very good portrayal of this man on Saturday Night Live. Kavanaugh is not an appropriate judicial nominee. And, yet, there he is, sitting on the SCOTUS.
He said too much and should have just answered the questions. He talked his way right out of the Supreme Court. He falls apart way too easy and gets flustered and angry too easy. He's not fit to be a Justice on the highest court in the land. He also seemed uncomfortable talking about beer and alcohol and said he still likes to drink. For someone versed in the justice system he doesn't know how to handle himself on the stand and should have had legal counsel at his side. And not to mention the allegations of sexual assault. A sad and cautionary tale.
Kavanaugh kept ducking out of asking for an FBI investigation, he was given multiple opportunities to ask for them to be brought in but he dodged them every single time, he also dodged the question when asked about it on Fox News I would have thought that if the damage to his reputation and to the peace of mind of his family had been as great as he claimed that he would have demanded that the FBI be called in to clear his name-but no, he dodged the question by disingenuously claiming that he would abide by the recommendations of the panel even though he well knew-as do we all-that the very last thing that the Republican judges would ever allow. I want to be entirely even-handed in this and have no wish for him to be found guilty but I must say that I do think that his responses to this and his combination of aggressive contemptuousness towards the Democrats and unconvincing ( overdone) tearfulness make me believe Dr Blasey Ford over him every single time.
This is incredible. When the nominee answers question to Republican friends, he answer quickly and in one word. However, when the other party (democrats) asks a question, the nominee spins a yarn, perhaps to waste the other party’s time. People will see through that.
Wow he didn't hold up to questioning at all. Ford was unflinching. Graham's speech was absolutely disgusting. Totally uninterested in the guilt or innocence at hand, only playing politics. Sickening.
Whether or not he is guilty is irrelevant. What's important is his behaviour in the face of these allegations. Rather than acting like a mature adult worthy of sitting impartially on the highest court in the USA, he acts like a four-year-old who has been told he cannot have a new toy. To me that's the really important part. Rather than say that he doesn't remember and that he's sorry for anything he might have done or any pain he has caused, he has a temper tantrum and threatens to use his seat on the SCOTUS to take revenge on those who have supported his accusers. This is not the kind of person who should be a judge of any kind, let alone the SCOTUS.
If you have nothing to hide why not do everything to prove otherwise? If you know he’s not lying then why not have an investigation? No one is perfect but doing everything instead of an investigation to prove otherwise is common sense he’s lying. My three year old niece acts like this when she lying to not get in trouble. But when he gets the job, and people’s rights start to disappear, then those who back him will be crying foul.
Thought he didn't listen to Dr Ford's hearing? Then how did he know that she can't remember how she got to and from the house. She only mentioned that today in her hearing. Such unnecessary lies!!
I don't CARE if you are guilty or not, you cannot yell over a soft spoken woman (Feinstein 1:05:00) just because you can. God he's so entitled, just his mannerisms.
I do think there are a few holes in Dr. Ford’s story but it happened so long ago I can’t imagine it can be rock solid. But the fact that he’s going full victim mode screams he’s desperate. And I can only wonder why if he claims he’s innocent? He’s dodging questions too and that doesn’t sit to well either
Of course they wouldn't remember some small gathering, nothing significant happened to them there, he has been to hundreds of parties, and likely so have his close friends, do you think they remember every single one from 36 years ago? Of course she remembers because she has thought about it everyday since it happened
This is ridiculous! Kavanagh avoided all questions and just rambled. Dr. Ford answered every single question and even took a polygraph test... even though it's not admissible in court! She covered her ass unlike this man here
Do you or do you not want the FBI to investigate? Yes or no. It's a loaded question most of the time. There is no yes or no when you have double negatives and/or several questions rolled into one. It's a political tactic.
Do you want the FBI to investigate? Dodges question Do you want mark judge to testify? Dodges question Was this person in the book “wasted” you? Dodges question
Just because you hire women and champion their success, does not mean that there is still a possibility of things like what he is accused of not happening. If he is innocent, then the truth will come out in the end.
Obviously we don't know for sure yet, but this clown's emotional and unprofessional demeanor shows guilt. Or at least that he's unfit to be a SC justice.
@David Davidson were you born yesterday or what? A judge with his credentials is the LAST person who should lose their shit in a hearing like this. He had plenty of time to piss and moan and blubber about this in private but he saves it for the hearing because he's a gutless coward, plain and simple.
He filibustered and dodged every question Dems asked. That makes me doubt his honesty. The line about wanting to testify to Congress but not wanting an FBI investigation is ridiculous. As a judge he should know you need an investigation BEFORE the hearing.
CNN productions remind me of Chris Angel productions... where they create an illusion (that there's any validity to these absurd allegations against the Judge), then stack the audience with their own shills to comment like the illusion was real. lol
No he was dodging their attempt to frame him as an alcoholic and a rapist. Soo have you had a beer in your life? Have you touched a woman before? You're an idiot if you think this guy who has lived the life he has is a secret rapist based off no evidence what's so ever. Again you're an idiot, and a moron.
Starts at 13:34. He’s a judge, why can’t he understand answering a question with a yes or no? Comes off as belligerent. After seeing this, I don’t believe him.
OMG, this is the only point we should be looking at now. Regardless of his guilt or innocence, which we may never find out, his behavior, demeanor, and partisan views are below the Top job in justice.
Because they were trick questions and most questions required more then a simple yes or no. One of the many trick questions was “do you wish she never came forward?” Lol if he answered that question it would be self incriminating
@3:25 when Senator Booker questioned Mr. Kavanaugh, He admitted the witnesses were there but said the witnesses said he didn't do it. He places himself there😱😱😱
Even if he's not guilty, his opening statement shows he's not impartial when he blamed the democrats for Dr Ford coming forward and his belligerent temperament and emotional state show that he's not qualified for the appointment.
Apparently Trump said he expected Kavanagh to respond to the allegations more vehemently than in his luke-warm Fox interview. But right out of the gate, Kavanagh overdid this performance, yelling at Feinstein when she was asking quite a simple, benign question aimed at the Committee Majority's refusal to order an FBI investigation.
They need to bring in Mark Judge, plain and simple. He needs to be under oath, and asked questions about this supposed night, otherwise this is just gonna keep going round and round...
His writings about misogyny and personal history are so disturbing that he cannot be allowed to testify before the committee without him also damning drinking pal Kavanaugh by association. Instead, Mark Judge, the key witness, has conveniently been sent into hiding where he cannot be cross-examined.
Yeah, I don’t necessarily think his book should be taken for truth, I just wanna hear him answer questions about that night, and his and Kavenaugh’s relationship with Ford.
Wow, what a show he performed!! He lost me at his long opening statement, praising all of his lifetime judicial accomplishments.. Sounded so much like Trump. The constant breaking in tears, drinking water and saying the same thing over and over again. I do understand trying to defend himself and feeling emotional about this but As a high ranking judge, you would have thought he could have held more composure and an even tone. Honestly he seemed very scared by the constant use of self praise and work accomplishments deflecting what this hearing was really about but more trying to convince the senate that he's such a great guy. Not trying to be rude but I didn't by into this at all.
Julie Townsend Get underneath that spotlight: your family, name and career tarnished after a few weeks. Tell me if you wouldn’t be emotional. Btw I lean neither left nor right.
Manuel Iglesias: Please read my post thoroughly. I'm also not with either party, I am an independent and choose to think for myself and not follow either party.
Zachary James Short Yes. I did read it. I find it confusing that she mentions how she understands how he can be emotional but that him tearing up and needing time to pause to drink water to compose himself is somehow beneath a high ranking judge. We are human. Yes as a professional he is expected to keep himself composed. However; he is being accused of three serious crimes all of which only have testimonies of said victims. If you read my post you would note that i said its hard for anyone to be in that spotlight. Especially if you worked as hard as he did to get to where he was/is.
Julie Townsend I have. Please note that I mention my political affiliation not to point out yours not even to imply it. This should have been clarified on my end. It was to clarify that my response was not politically motivated.
I stand with Brett... He can prove where he was, she can not even provide a specific date, time, location of where or when this was to have happened... Dems tried to frame a good man...
virtuous woman Doula looks like she lied about the reason for the door... It was installed in 2008. She claims it was put in in 2012... She lied about the polygraph... She said she never helped anyone with a polygraph... She lied about her fear of flying... She has flown in and out of the country multiple times... I still stand with Brett....
Nathaniel Kirk how did he prove where he was. All he said was that he wasnt there. She said that she saw Judd later on which she can give her more of a timeline on when this happened. She hadls documents of her talking about this sexual assault. His testomony, was unprofessional, abrasive, filibustered, and all over the place. He couldn't answer one question. Not one yes or no. If you were accussed wouldnt you wNt someone to investigate you so your name is cleared? I am just saying.
So wtf happened to every senator getting just 5 minutes? The republicans (in particular: graham) ceded their time to the prosecutor, and then take the opportunity to grandstand for an additional 5 minutes? That's bs
He didn’t bother to watch her testimony, since he already knew what she was going to say, because he was there and he already knows what happened. Coming out angry just displayed he is guilty of her accusations.
this man is incredibly talented (as most politicians are) at giving this must idiotic answers to simple questions in a convoluted way to make it appear that what hes saying is intelligent.
Agreed. But it's only professor Ford who took a polygraph test. In 2016 the DC Circuit said lie detector tests are *"Credible for law enforcement agents to use in criminal investigations and background checks."* The judge who gave that ruling was....... *Brett Kavanaugh.*
You also have to know what questions were asked. If she was asked "did Brett kav do these things to you?" Or "are you lying about the allegations against kav?" And it showed that she wasnt lying, then I would be far more on fords side.
. Or one of them is telling the truth and the other is deluded. Why has she not been asked if her memory of the incident is consecutive through time or if it was "recovered" at some subsequent date?
What pissed off his name and family is being destroyed before his eyes with no evidence. God forbid he ever got drunk in his lifetime. Have you ever drank before, are you stupid.
@@devilmonkey to answer ur question no I don't drink. Only because I know what it does to people. Who acts like that on a job interview. I guess he feels entitled.
@@devilmonkey no I don't drink my dad was an alcoholic, and beat on my mom so I never touched the stuff. Makes people do stuff they wouldn't normally do
All politicians should recluse from their jobs because they drink. Trump should nominate himself as a judge because he doesn't drink and doesn't throw ice at people
This was just sad... this is a hearing on serious charges and yet both sides failed horribly. Kavanaugh had such an emotional outburst that it was embarrassing to watch, not the sort of character I wanted to see in a supreme court nominee. Ford, on the other hand, played nothing but sympathy to the letter. No substantiating evidence whatsoever, just her tale which for all we know could be a fairy tale. This important legal meeting devolved into a simple he said she said and now I've lost respect for both parties involved. Democrats need to watch The Crucible sometime, they could learn a few lessons about how being guilty until proven innocent is the most unamerican garbage in existence. Kavanaugh had 6 FBI investigations already how many more do they want? Even Joe Biden back in 1991 made fun of that. And the magical polygraph test which she answered all of 2 questions to.. They keep having women cry wolf like this than Duke University is going to look like a picnic and no woman will ever be believed on sexual charges again, not a world I want. Kavanaugh and Republicans in general need to learn some manners and respect. I understand he is angry about these accusations but any woman that thinks she has been sexually assaulted, no matter when and where, whether truthfully or not, deserves to be heard. She is an american citizen with just as much value to the country as Kavanaugh in the eyes of the constitution. For some one seeking to be appointed to the highest court in the land he sure lacks the demeanor I'd expect and as a judge he should be ashamed. He should know full and well already that justice requires listening to the accused and the accuser with a calm mind and careful evaluation of the facts and evidence. Seems to me he was so used to judging other people that he is too high and mighty to be judged himself with the attitude he showed; Judge Dredd comes to mind. Sigh, dumbocrats and repugnicans will never change.

kosher dirty tactics, spewing unsubstantial sexual filth at a white male running for an office yet all sexual predators revealed by the radical deranged feminazi # me too insanity one of the cultural Marxist tentacle are almost exclusively Jews
Where can I find these documents Mr. Tillis talks about at 3:18:00? The chronology of the investigation and the URL (or whatever this second paper is)?
Your roommate in college said you were a nasty drunk, who became abusive. Which one called you a blackout drunk? You are not telling the truth about what you CAN’T remember. Renate will never forgive you. She knows what you all meant. I also believe that your friends who were girls might not know what you were like with girls who were strangers and didn’t travel in your social circle. Mention the women who wanted their names removed from the letter. Why aren’t any of the women who sent you texts, speaking on the record. Where are the conservative protests for you like the progressive protests for Dr Ford? Enough
What do you expect him to say? "Yeah, I sexually assaulted Dr. Ford."???, with his wife sitting there and in front of the world, while wanting a lifetime appointment to the supreme court???
Oh my word!! I thought I saw inconsistencies in HER questioning, lord have mercy he is something else! I have never seen anybody turn things around and ask irrelevant people if they like beer or have been drunk. Just what in the world..
he is doing it on purpose... they have 5 minutes to ask questions. . he is wasting their time.... watch how he is so silent and reserved when republicans are asking him questions
All those talking about the judges demeanor clearly have no clue about how his life has been destroyed.. especially if this allegation is false.. what is he supposed to be? Calm? Happy? Be for real
No I don’t care. I don’t give a single solitary fuck about him when he hasn’t proven himself to have an ounce of integrity, he couldn’t even hold his composure, he was disrespectful, narcissistic, he couldn’t answer any questions that were challenging, he whined and bullshitted his way through this entire hearing. I believe the story of professor Ford. She was willing to answer every question, she was polite, she held her composure and she’s clearly been traumatized.
He doesn't have to prove anything. That's the Italian court system. In American, crazy concept, you are innocent until PROVEN guilty. He shouldn't have anything to prove.
How dare you accuse him of having no integrity. His whole life has been described by those that know him as one of honesty and fairness. His life is his defense, 30 years in public service. To judge him based on this questioning where he was facing smears and attacks on his character is ridiculous. He was rightfully upset and his opening statement and following behavior reflected everything he has gone through. Basing your opinion on the two questionings by how they reacted and their "composure" instead of on facts and by whose story can be corroborated and whose cannot demonstrates that you cannot look at the stories objectively. When livelihoods and immediate futures are at stake, more thought and deliberation should be taken.
Best opening speech ever in this corrupt institution. Thank you honorable Mr. Kavanaugh for your incredible courage and truthfulness and refusal to be intimidated by viscious democrat politics.
He was so worried about his wife, kids, and his good name. Yet he couldn't say yes to a FBI investigation. He was asked over and over. Dodging the question. This is not human nature. Clear my name, hell yeah dig into anything and everything. Guilty as hell.
+Bryan Halstead he clearly didn't say that.....he said like a little bitch that has his ass covered " I'll do what the committee wants me to ". .....he knows he committed will block any attempts of an investigation lol,that's why he didn't say outright ..yes I want an FBI investigation . And I love how the old turtle was quick to,chime in to Brett's defense ❤️❤️❤️to DR.Ford ...she is a true lady....she didn't even start a show by starting crying ad playing the " victim"
I think u don't have a social circle. If u do can u subject all yo friends, college classmates and family to an FBI investigation. U have a small brain. Do u know the torture they would go through. U must be a low achiever in life if u think an investigation is fun
Kavanaugh would be more credible if he'd agreed to an FBI investigation, or takes a polygraph like Ford did. In 2016 the DC Circuit said lie detector tests are "Credible for law enforcement agents to use in criminal investigations and BACKGROUND CHECKS." The judge who gave that ruling was....... *Brett Kavanaugh.*
I know this isn't a trial but this man is a judge and yet he is terrible at answering questions. I'm sure he would not be so gracious with witnesses in his court behaving like this.
you know how sometimes you can just tell that someone is an asshole or a pig just by looking at them and hearing them talk? That's the feeling I get when I watch Kavanaugh
He is beating around the bush like crazy. He prepared for this because he know they only get 5 minutes at he trying to take up the time. He look like a liar to me cause Dr. Ford answered everything quickly cause she was being honest. He also got the biggest attitude and is very condescending, for someone who is supposed to be a supreme court judge.
Dr Ford really didn't want protection, she wantes to get this traumatizing embarrasment story of her life out. I walked in the shoes as I've said n if this man went on with his life n now I see him trying to get this seat I to would say something. Let me ask did she mrs Ford know where Kavanaugh was all this time?
If this man is sober and be that pumped up yelling and screaming oh boy I don’t want to see him when he’s not Who’s at loss in all this shenanigans?The America people!
What questions is he dodging? I'm hearing very direct and concise answers to the questions being asked. Also the calendars are used as alibis as to where and what he was doing 30 years ago. That's very admissible in court. Does it prove his innocence? No. But it's evidence nonetheless and that is more than his accuser has.
Regardless of the accusations, the very foundation of obtaining a Jurist Doctorate, is that law is void of emotion. I was for him until he lost his shit. A judge at the highest court can not have a grudge based on partisan, he ruined it all when he started yelling and throwing veiled threats. A judge is simply a referee between the prosecution and defense. A Supreme Court Judge is to interpret the constitution, not to create laws. That is what congress is for but they no longer do their jobs which is why this fiasco has become so political. We need to do away with this broken two party system so that we vote for people that fight for what the voter is wanting to change, in other words, vote who is like minded on as many SUBJECTS as you are. There may be some that differ, but you choose the person that will fight for as many as they can. NO ONE WILL EVER BE FOR 100%, but that is what compromise is which is why DC has fallen (Along with lobbyist, they need to go!) but we now vote on party lines and/or who has the best commercials. We no longer vote for the person that is MOST like minded. Also, we need term limits across the board. Too much time goes by where politicians begin to "owe" this person or that lobbyist favors. One more thing (Sorry) I understand a fifteen year old keeping sexual assault to themselves. HOWEVER, when you become 18..19...20..23..28... The statue of limitations would still be valid. If this is affecting someone all this time, up to 36 years, why did they not go to the authorities at say, 24, around the time this person obtained her doctorate in PSYCHOLOGY!... Of all people, I would think she would have went to the police back then. Now is not the time. Personally I think it happened, but they were just playing around like teens do and when she started to reject it as no longer teenage play, they got up and left. I think it clearly bothered her more then they assumed. I think she freaked out because she wanted to tell her parents, to see if her fear was valid, but she was more upset for her parents finding out she was there and drinking. That would have scared the shit out of me at 15. Anyway, regardless, he shouldn't be on thr bench, he ruined it. They need to nominate someone new and get it done.
the crying game is what i don't get. did he want to come off sensitive cause he came off like an unstable man. crying and sniffling at every turn was stranger than him swearing under oath that he had never been to a house party.
I cannot believe this guy's temper. It is absolutely unacceptable especially when he wants to be elevated to the Supreme Court. He is attacking his questioners with such defensive behaviour. Makes me wonder, what does he have to hide?
Its funny how hypocritical you guys are, Democrats go to massive lengths to make sure not a single one of Trump's judges are appointed that they go making false accusations that even the most simple minded can pick up. Its happened before in the past, it crazy how you guys don't pick up the bullshit they keep conjuring. That makes me wonder what shit these Dems have to hide...
I watched every minute of testimony yesterday btw. With a clear conscious I can say this man is guilty of drinking beers (as I am) but he did not assault Ford. Also guilty of boofing.
Probably because they're attacking *him* and trying their hardest to make him seem guilty, they're making it almost impossible for him. Dunno, just a guess.
Kavanaugh does not sound credible. Belligerent retorts to answers; Evasive; Distracts attention; Mainly concerned with himself/how it affected his life rather than be empathetic or compassionate, or remorseful on how this event has impacted Dr. Ford and her life and family. He had a much longer, angrier and even louder opening statement as to overpower and shut down voices of Dr. Ford and any opponents. Kavanuagh had a really Well-rehearse inauthentic opening statement. He tries to rile up the audience so that we would also be as blinded by rage and disgust as he is, in order to further evade questions, filibuster senators and openly disrespects a senator when she talking about her father who struggled with Alcoholism. Does he really think that his performance at this hearing would silence all of his critics? If his reputation is truly important to him and if he truly didn't do it, then a polygraph test and an FBI investigation would only help him to prove his innocence, Right?
But kavanugh did say his family holds no "ill will" against ford, He said how sexual allegation is a serious matter and even said he does not question on wether ford got raped. He used examples of how he has been affected by sexual assult as his close friend was and used him for emotional healing, he raised his daughter to pray for the woman who MAY be hurting and destroying their family... Such actions were in NO WAY recipcated by ford's testimony. 2nd, the problem with an FBI investigation is the democrats could have asked for it A long time ago in where it wouldn't mess up with the hearings, but they chose to hold it until they could delay it until after midterms HOPING by then they'd have a majoriy senate and then basically block the seat until they hopefully win the 2020, then nominate a democratic judge. It seems YOU are bias for Mrs. Ford, but sorry. Most people side with kavanaugh, and he's going to be a judge. I am a indepdent, but the democrats have been acting disgraceful.
Wouldn’t you focus on how it has affected your life? To have a pristine reputation torn to pieces through unreliable accusations? Don’t even pull the self centered card
But the lady who doesnt remember when, who drove her home(she was 15 no uber back then) where or what but was convinced its "him". He has a life and family too.. if this is a lie its just as bad... remember she isnt claiming he raped her, she claimes he dry humped her while he was drunk 35 years ago.
You have a great point. Even if he didn't do it, his behavior and disposition imo is not that of a Supreme court justice. This is the highest court of our land and it requires that person to be better than us, more composed than us, more social minded than us. He doesn't have the ability to remain judicious in difficult situations, and that is normal for most of us, but that cannot be the a trait of a SCJ.
I have an incredible amount of bias, reasons other than sexual assault, disdain for this guy as to why I dont want this guy as a Surpeme court justice... But... what does this mean for anyone accused of sexual assault? What level of evidence should there be in order for a person's life to be changed? I dont know and can't make that call myself consistently and without so much bias but THIS will likely set precedence for how these events may be handled... this is tough.
never seen someone innocent NOT want a investigation, why wouldnt he want his name to be COMPLETLY cleared by this investigation? wth is he hiding?
I like how people keep talking about Ford as if there weren't 3 more women who have come forward against Kavanaugh.
Holy crap he is GUILTY AF. Can anyone else see the million signs of lying he shows each second?
you are wrong idiot
Interesting how everyone that the Democrats have an issue with turns out to be a “graper”
No good reason an innocent man is so damn nervous, defensive, and evasive.
How anyone of his supposed stature could get this far is beyond understanding! He is a weak, spoiled little boy who has ridden the coat tails of his parents. His body language and speech tells us of his guilt. Supreme Court Judge..... UH.... NO !
This man can't control his emotions but we gonna appoint him to judge laws that can affect my life. Nope!
A NATION MORE DIVIDED. GOOD LUCK AMERICA. Watching from Sydney Australia.
Same here watching from Pakistan.
Thank you for your concern. We'll be okay.
It really is a shame to see how much the liberal democrats have divided this country the last several years.
Same here from India
Vivien Armstrong this liberals are cause
If Kavanaugh is not lying then let the FBI get involved and investigate !!
Why don't they press charges now
His opening statements were emotional and relatable, but after that Judge Kavanaugh comes across as uncooperative and defiant. Dodging questions, deflecting, and filibustering answers. I fully appreciate that his reputation, and the emotional stability of his family is being affected by this whole process. But he's given every opportunity by the Dems to clear his name by calling for an FBI investigation, and asking that witnesses be heard, and he keeps saying the FBI investigation is meaningless, and it's up to the committee. Not once does he show he's willing to do anything to clear his name. It just comes across as he's got something to hide.
Matt Damon did a very good portrayal of this man on Saturday Night Live. Kavanaugh is not an appropriate judicial nominee. And, yet, there he is, sitting on the SCOTUS.
He said too much and should have just answered the questions. He talked his way right out of the Supreme Court. He falls apart way too easy and gets flustered and angry too easy. He's not fit to be a Justice on the highest court in the land. He also seemed uncomfortable talking about beer and alcohol and said he still likes to drink. For someone versed in the justice system he doesn't know how to handle himself on the stand and should have had legal counsel at his side.
And not to mention the allegations of sexual assault. A sad and cautionary tale.
Ur sick
If he would take the silver spoon out of his mouth long enough, maybe he would be able to speak something resembling compassion.
How did she know about his friend who clearly had issues, then them together. Why has no one asked this.....How did she know...
Kavanaugh kept ducking out of asking for an FBI investigation, he was given multiple opportunities to ask for them to be brought in but he dodged them every single time, he also dodged the question when asked about it on Fox News I would have thought that if the damage to his reputation and to the peace of mind of his family had been as great as he claimed that he would have demanded that the FBI be called in to clear his name-but no, he dodged the question by disingenuously claiming that he would abide by the recommendations of the panel even though he well knew-as do we all-that the very last thing that the Republican judges would ever allow.
I want to be entirely even-handed in this and have no wish for him to be found guilty but I must say that I do think that his responses to this and his combination of aggressive contemptuousness towards the Democrats and unconvincing ( overdone) tearfulness make me believe Dr Blasey Ford over him every single time.
No physical evidence, no crime scene, no actual witnesses, no real timeline, and no corroboration. No reason to believe anyone is guilty.
It would be nice to get that through a libtards brain.
Lots of reasons... did you not hear the spells of the media? Read the comments from team evil's shills making it sound like he's guilty?
Stebbins there are witnesses.
J K Yeah... witnesses who refuted all the accusations
@@larrylinwick1243
Put them on the stand, have the fbi interview them and investigate.
Kavanaugh said he was a saint, he was probably a boozer.
did it really end on kavanaugh being asked to swear to god?? i can't believe this
This is incredible. When the nominee answers question to Republican friends, he answer quickly and in one word. However, when the other party (democrats) asks a question, the nominee spins a yarn, perhaps to waste the other party’s time. People will see through that.
He sniffles and tongues his lies on the left side of his mouth. His left, our right.
Wow he didn't hold up to questioning at all. Ford was unflinching.
Graham's speech was absolutely disgusting. Totally uninterested in the guilt or innocence at hand, only playing politics. Sickening.
Kananaugh is Writting down the Names of all the Senators that Fucked with him... 😂
Honestly after seeing his testimony, I find him extremely obnoxious and rude. He doesn't seem like a judge that would be fair in trials.
Whether or not he is guilty is irrelevant. What's important is his behaviour in the face of these allegations. Rather than acting like a mature adult worthy of sitting impartially on the highest court in the USA, he acts like a four-year-old who has been told he cannot have a new toy. To me that's the really important part. Rather than say that he doesn't remember and that he's sorry for anything he might have done or any pain he has caused, he has a temper tantrum and threatens to use his seat on the SCOTUS to take revenge on those who have supported his accusers. This is not the kind of person who should be a judge of any kind, let alone the SCOTUS.
If you have nothing to hide why not do everything to prove otherwise? If you know he’s not lying then why not have an investigation? No one is perfect but doing everything instead of an investigation to prove otherwise is common sense he’s lying. My three year old niece acts like this when she lying to not get in trouble. But when he gets the job, and people’s rights start to disappear, then those who back him will be crying foul.
Thought he didn't listen to Dr Ford's hearing? Then how did he know that she can't remember how she got to and from the house. She only mentioned that today in her hearing. Such unnecessary lies!!
I don't CARE if you are guilty or not, you cannot yell over a soft spoken woman (Feinstein 1:05:00) just because you can. God he's so entitled, just his mannerisms.
His mannerisms are so much like Trump-the sniffling, the scowling, that pursing of the lips. It's uncanny!
He already lied under oath before
In summary folks, what I’m trying to say is “I’m guilty as hell and this is my Hail Mary!!”
Kavanaugh reminds of Saul Goodman from Better Call Saul, with his mannerisms and his voice... am I alone?
How did this guy even make it to Judge in the 1st place?
I do think there are a few holes in Dr. Ford’s story but it happened so long ago I can’t imagine it can be rock solid. But the fact that he’s going full victim mode screams he’s desperate. And I can only wonder why if he claims he’s innocent? He’s dodging questions too and that doesn’t sit to well either
Hey if you think so, let's lock him up! Shut up moron
Of course they wouldn't remember some small gathering, nothing significant happened to them there, he has been to hundreds of parties, and likely so have his close friends, do you think they remember every single one from 36 years ago? Of course she remembers because she has thought about it everyday since it happened
This is ridiculous! Kavanagh avoided all questions and just rambled. Dr. Ford answered every single question and even took a polygraph test... even though it's not admissible in court! She covered her ass unlike this man here
Yet ,..hey want to call her out bc she didn't go to a forensic person ...she even asked for an investigation ....
Polygraph tests aren't reliable.
You didn't watch all the testimony if you think he avoided all questions and rambled. He said he wants his name cleared. He welcomes it!
@@tw5904 I know they're not reliable that's why I said they're not admissible in court!!...Duh!🙄
Do you or do you not want the FBI to investigate? Yes or no.
It's a loaded question most of the time. There is no yes or no when you have double negatives and/or several questions rolled into one. It's a political tactic.
Do you want the FBI to investigate? Dodges question
Do you want mark judge to testify?
Dodges question
Was this person in the book “wasted” you?
Dodges question
Just because you hire women and champion their success, does not mean that there is still a possibility of things like what he is accused of not happening. If he is innocent, then the truth will come out in the end.
Hawks Fan agreed
Obviously we don't know for sure yet, but this clown's emotional and unprofessional demeanor shows guilt. Or at least that he's unfit to be a SC justice.
@David Davidson cute retort. How many minutes did it take you to come up with that one, halfwit?
@David Davidson The clown is the one in the WH. The fool is you for believing a word he says.
@David Davidson were you born yesterday or what? A judge with his credentials is the LAST person who should lose their shit in a hearing like this. He had plenty of time to piss and moan and blubber about this in private but he saves it for the hearing because he's a gutless coward, plain and simple.
He never answers the question he just reminds us the court made him wait 10 days boo hoo
obstruction of justice, or in contempt of court. This is no Supreme Court Justice!
He filibustered and dodged every question Dems asked. That makes me doubt his honesty. The line about wanting to testify to Congress but not wanting an FBI investigation is ridiculous. As a judge he should know you need an investigation BEFORE the hearing.
CNN productions remind me of Chris Angel productions... where they create an illusion (that there's any validity to these absurd allegations against the Judge), then stack the audience with their own shills to comment like the illusion was real. lol
WHAT PART OF I WILL DO WHAT EVER THIS COMMITTEE WANTS TO DO ( DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND)
He’s had six investigations
Your Twisted ideas will not change my America we will be stronger than ever because now we see those that are in the dark
No he was dodging their attempt to frame him as an alcoholic and a rapist. Soo have you had a beer in your life? Have you touched a woman before? You're an idiot if you think this guy who has lived the life he has is a secret rapist based off no evidence what's so ever. Again you're an idiot, and a moron.
Starts at 13:34. He’s a judge, why can’t he understand answering a question with a yes or no? Comes off as belligerent. After seeing this, I don’t believe him.
OMG, this is the only point we should be looking at now. Regardless of his guilt or innocence, which we may never find out, his behavior, demeanor, and partisan views are below the Top job in justice.
justme that’s right.
justme truth
Because they were trick questions and most questions required more then a simple yes or no. One of the many trick questions was “do you wish she never came forward?” Lol if he answered that question it would be self incriminating
Ford didnt answer yes or no
At the very least he has an alcohol problem.
You are the WORST possible thing that could happen to the SCOTUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@3:25 when Senator Booker questioned Mr. Kavanaugh, He admitted the witnesses were there but said the witnesses said he didn't do it. He places himself there😱😱😱
He’s gives me an intense vibe. I wouldn’t want him to be my judge if I’m on trial. 😄
Even if he's not guilty, his opening statement shows he's not impartial when he blamed the democrats for Dr Ford coming forward and his belligerent temperament and emotional state show that he's not qualified for the appointment.
How would you feel if you did everything right and something like this happens because youre a nominee of someone that people dont like.
He's stating facts. If hes not impartial because he stated the facts of the situation, perhaps he isn't the problem
Well if they held the information till the correct time and went agaings the accuser's wish to remain anonymous then yes it was done on purpose
Apparently Trump said he expected Kavanagh to respond to the allegations more vehemently than in his luke-warm Fox interview. But right out of the gate, Kavanagh overdid this performance, yelling at Feinstein when she was asking quite a simple, benign question aimed at the Committee Majority's refusal to order an FBI investigation.
Impartical??? Really? After what they did? What world do u live on?
Kavanaugh is so theatrical. He even shed a few tears. Academy award winning performance. He is auditioning for the wrong line of work.
65 chickens can testify that I didn't eat them.
Did you eat chicken?
You mean to say. "If 65 chickens can testify, I can't even eat them."
Yeah but did anyone accuse you of trying to fuck them?
So much for #believeallwomen
nice!
They need to bring in Mark Judge, plain and simple. He needs to be under oath, and asked questions about this supposed night, otherwise this is just gonna keep going round and round...
Absolutely
He wrote a book. About this situation
His writings about misogyny and personal history are so disturbing that he cannot be allowed to testify before the committee without him also damning drinking pal Kavanaugh by association. Instead, Mark Judge, the key witness, has conveniently been sent into hiding where he cannot be cross-examined.
His book is sketchy asf.
Yeah, I don’t necessarily think his book should be taken for truth, I just wanna hear him answer questions about that night, and his and Kavenaugh’s relationship with Ford.
Wow, what a show he performed!! He lost me at his long opening statement, praising all of his lifetime judicial accomplishments.. Sounded so much like Trump. The constant breaking in tears, drinking water and saying the same thing over and over again. I do understand trying to defend himself and feeling emotional about this but As a high ranking judge, you would have thought he could have held more composure and an even tone. Honestly he seemed very scared by the constant use of self praise and work accomplishments deflecting what this hearing was really about but more trying to convince the senate that he's such a great guy. Not trying to be rude but I didn't by into this at all.
Julie Townsend
Get underneath that spotlight: your family, name and career tarnished after a few weeks. Tell me if you wouldn’t be emotional. Btw I lean neither left nor right.
Manuel Iglesias: Please read my post thoroughly. I'm also not with either party, I am an independent and choose to think for myself and not follow either party.
Zachary James Short: Thank you 😊
Zachary James Short
Yes. I did read it. I find it confusing that she mentions how she understands how he can be emotional but that him tearing up and needing time to pause to drink water to compose himself is somehow beneath a high ranking judge. We are human. Yes as a professional he is expected to keep himself composed. However; he is being accused of three serious crimes all of which only have testimonies of said victims. If you read my post you would note that i said its hard for anyone to be in that spotlight. Especially if you worked as hard as he did to get to where he was/is.
Julie Townsend
I have. Please note that I mention my political affiliation not to point out yours not even to imply it. This should have been clarified on my end. It was to clarify that my response was not politically motivated.
Boy, you can tell how pissed he is in his opening statement. He was basically ranting against everyone.
Do you really need an FBI investigation after these hearings? This is ridiculous.
His crying and facial expressions kinda makes you NOT believe his statement.
His filibustering reminds me of Will Ferrell's character on SNL that kept screaming "I DRIVE A DODGE STRATUS! I'M IMPORTANT AT WORK!"
He answers everything but the question.
I stand with Brett... He can prove where he was, she can not even provide a specific date, time, location of where or when this was to have happened... Dems tried to frame a good man...
finally a comment that makes sense
did you listen to her questions? if so then you will know that your comment is false!
virtuous woman Doula... i watched the entire hearing...
virtuous woman Doula looks like she lied about the reason for the door... It was installed in 2008. She claims it was put in in 2012... She lied about the polygraph... She said she never helped anyone with a polygraph... She lied about her fear of flying... She has flown in and out of the country multiple times... I still stand with Brett....
Nathaniel Kirk how did he prove where he was. All he said was
that he wasnt there. She said that she saw Judd later on which she can give her more of a timeline on when this happened. She hadls documents of her talking about this sexual assault. His testomony, was unprofessional, abrasive, filibustered, and all over the place. He couldn't answer one question. Not one yes or no. If you were accussed wouldnt you wNt someone to investigate you so your name is cleared? I am just saying.
Also, why did these men hide behind a woman when questioning Ford, but suddenly got feisty and found their voice to "question" kavanaugh?
So wtf happened to every senator getting just 5 minutes? The republicans (in particular: graham) ceded their time to the prosecutor, and then take the opportunity to grandstand for an additional 5 minutes? That's bs
He didn’t bother to watch her testimony, since he already knew what she was going to say, because he was there and he already knows what happened. Coming out angry just displayed he is guilty of her accusations.
this man is incredibly talented (as most politicians are) at giving this must idiotic answers to simple questions in a convoluted way to make it appear that what hes saying is intelligent.
truth will surface: one of them is lying.
Agreed. But it's only professor Ford who took a polygraph test.
In 2016 the DC Circuit said lie detector tests are *"Credible for law enforcement agents to use in criminal investigations and background checks."* The judge who gave that ruling was....... *Brett Kavanaugh.*
Sorry but "credible for use" does not qualify them as evidence. They can only support existing evidence.
You also have to know what questions were asked. If she was asked "did Brett kav do these things to you?" Or "are you lying about the allegations against kav?" And it showed that she wasnt lying, then I would be far more on fords side.
. Or one of them is telling the truth and the other is deluded. Why has she not been asked if her memory of the incident is consecutive through time or if it was "recovered" at some subsequent date?
Apparently after FBI investigation it was Ford.
They should just pick somebody else. This is crazy. Lose him and just pick another person.
He's acting like a petulant child. It is pretty obvious his wife doesn't believe him. She's seen him drunk and belligerent.
I can't believe this dude is gonna be a supreme judge. If he acts like that sober, I hate to see him drunk
What pissed off his name and family is being destroyed before his eyes with no evidence. God forbid he ever got drunk in his lifetime. Have you ever drank before, are you stupid.
@@devilmonkey to answer ur question no I don't drink. Only because I know what it does to people. Who acts like that on a job interview. I guess he feels entitled.
@@devilmonkey no I don't drink my dad was an alcoholic, and beat on my mom so I never touched the stuff. Makes people do stuff they wouldn't normally do
All politicians should recluse from their jobs because they drink.
Trump should nominate himself as a judge because he doesn't drink and doesn't throw ice at people
@@devilmonkey no, I haven't had a drink. I dont drink.
Whether or not he is innocent, the question is should this be the temperament expected of a judge of the Supreme Court ?
Considering that his reputation was tarnished and people hated him over no evidence, yes I think that is an appropriate reaction.
This was just sad... this is a hearing on serious charges and yet both sides failed horribly. Kavanaugh had such an emotional outburst that it was embarrassing to watch, not the sort of character I wanted to see in a supreme court nominee. Ford, on the other hand, played nothing but sympathy to the letter. No substantiating evidence whatsoever, just her tale which for all we know could be a fairy tale. This important legal meeting devolved into a simple he said she said and now I've lost respect for both parties involved. Democrats need to watch The Crucible sometime, they could learn a few lessons about how being guilty until proven innocent is the most unamerican garbage in existence. Kavanaugh had 6 FBI investigations already how many more do they want? Even Joe Biden back in 1991 made fun of that. And the magical polygraph test which she answered all of 2 questions to.. They keep having women cry wolf like this than Duke University is going to look like a picnic and no woman will ever be believed on sexual charges again, not a world I want. Kavanaugh and Republicans in general need to learn some manners and respect. I understand he is angry about these accusations but any woman that thinks she has been sexually assaulted, no matter when and where, whether truthfully or not, deserves to be heard. She is an american citizen with just as much value to the country as Kavanaugh in the eyes of the constitution. For some one seeking to be appointed to the highest court in the land he sure lacks the demeanor I'd expect and as a judge he should be ashamed. He should know full and well already that justice requires listening to the accused and the accuser with a calm mind and careful evaluation of the facts and evidence. Seems to me he was so used to judging other people that he is too high and mighty to be judged himself with the attitude he showed; Judge Dredd comes to mind. Sigh, dumbocrats and repugnicans will never change.
kosher dirty tactics, spewing unsubstantial sexual filth at a white male running for an office yet all sexual predators revealed by the radical deranged feminazi # me too insanity one of the cultural Marxist tentacle are almost exclusively Jews
Where can I find these documents Mr. Tillis talks about at 3:18:00? The chronology of the investigation and the URL (or whatever this second paper is)?
"Did you drink alot" I guess people who drink alot are now possible rapist lol 😂
Like you
Nathaniel Yee it was a sarcastic comment dont know if your being sarcastic too lol
@@lobster420x8 people who drink in highschool are small minded losers.
One can drink A LOT and commit an assault and tell oneself “I would never do that”.
i guess it just might be possible but i was to drunk to remember
Kavanaugh, I wonder if you could even pass a drug test Mr. Sniffles?
Finally, there will be an FBI investigation for proper due process.
That's what they want you to think.
How do they know he didn't write up them calendar entries last week
Easily checked by forensics.
Your roommate in college said you were a nasty drunk, who became abusive. Which one called you a blackout drunk? You are not telling the truth about what you CAN’T remember. Renate will never forgive you. She knows what you all meant. I also believe that your friends who were girls might not know what you were like with girls who were strangers and didn’t travel in your social circle. Mention the women who wanted their names removed from the letter. Why aren’t any of the women who sent you texts, speaking on the record. Where are the conservative protests for you like the progressive protests for Dr Ford? Enough
I think he lacks intelligence, the actions he made before this hearing such as releasing a calendar to prove his innocence said a lot about him.
What do you expect him to say? "Yeah, I sexually assaulted Dr. Ford."???, with his wife sitting there and in front of the world, while wanting a lifetime appointment to the supreme court???
Once a rapist always a rapist. Even his roommate spoke against him!
He sure knows an awful lot about DR. FORD. TO NOT REMEMBER any of her ALLEGATIONS. Also he knows A lot about that area. Wow...................
Oh my word!! I thought I saw inconsistencies in HER questioning, lord have mercy he is something else! I have never seen anybody turn things around and ask irrelevant people if they like beer or have been drunk. Just what in the world..
he is doing it on purpose... they have 5 minutes to ask questions. . he is wasting their time.... watch how he is so silent and reserved when republicans are asking him questions
@@sibonelo01 Exactly.
Why take a polygraph test? I'm going to get voted in anyway. I just need to endure this a little longer.
All those talking about the judges demeanor clearly have no clue about how his life has been destroyed.. especially if this allegation is false.. what is he supposed to be? Calm? Happy? Be for real
They can't be for real, they have no real empathy, like normal human beings.
No I don’t care. I don’t give a single solitary fuck about him when he hasn’t proven himself to have an ounce of integrity, he couldn’t even hold his composure, he was disrespectful, narcissistic, he couldn’t answer any questions that were challenging, he whined and bullshitted his way through this entire hearing. I believe the story of professor Ford. She was willing to answer every question, she was polite, she held her composure and she’s clearly been traumatized.
He doesn't have to prove anything. That's the Italian court system. In American, crazy concept, you are innocent until PROVEN guilty. He shouldn't have anything to prove.
Then why wouldn't he agree to an FBI investigation to clear his name once and for all?
How dare you accuse him of having no integrity. His whole life has been described by those that know him as one of honesty and fairness. His life is his defense, 30 years in public service. To judge him based on this questioning where he was facing smears and attacks on his character is ridiculous. He was rightfully upset and his opening statement and following behavior reflected everything he has gone through. Basing your opinion on the two questionings by how they reacted and their "composure" instead of on facts and by whose story can be corroborated and whose cannot demonstrates that you cannot look at the stories objectively. When livelihoods and immediate futures are at stake, more thought and deliberation should be taken.
Best opening speech ever in this corrupt institution. Thank you honorable Mr. Kavanaugh for your incredible courage and truthfulness and refusal to be intimidated by viscious democrat politics.
He was so worried about his wife, kids, and his good name. Yet he couldn't say yes to a FBI investigation. He was asked over and over. Dodging the question. This is not human nature. Clear my name, hell yeah dig into anything and everything. Guilty as hell.
+Bryan Halstead he clearly didn't say that.....he said like a little bitch that has his ass covered " I'll do what the committee wants me to ". .....he knows he committed will block any attempts of an investigation lol,that's why he didn't say outright ..yes I want an FBI investigation . And I love how the old turtle was quick to,chime in to Brett's defense ❤️❤️❤️to DR.Ford ...she is a true lady....she didn't even start a show by starting crying ad playing the " victim"
piglette0928 The FBI would not find anything anyway, the FBI are not time lords, or gods.
I think u don't have a social circle. If u do can u subject all yo friends, college classmates and family to an FBI investigation. U have a small brain. Do u know the torture they would go through. U must be a low achiever in life if u think an investigation is fun
I'd like the FBI to investigate you, you seem kinda strange. If you don't agree your guilty to something. The logic of a dim witted zombie
Kavanaugh would be more credible if he'd agreed to an FBI investigation, or takes a polygraph like Ford did. In 2016 the DC Circuit said lie detector tests are "Credible for law enforcement agents to use in criminal investigations and BACKGROUND CHECKS." The judge who gave that ruling was....... *Brett Kavanaugh.*
I know this isn't a trial but this man is a judge and yet he is terrible at answering questions. I'm sure he would not be so gracious with witnesses in his court behaving like this.
you know how sometimes you can just tell that someone is an asshole or a pig just by looking at them and hearing them talk? That's the feeling I get when I watch Kavanaugh
this guy loves himself... he get so emotional and cries when talking about how good of a person he is
My friend was assaulted so I’m not an assaulter 😂 what a character
He is beating around the bush like crazy. He prepared for this because he know they only get 5 minutes at he trying to take up the time. He look like a liar to me cause Dr. Ford answered everything quickly cause she was being honest. He also got the biggest attitude and is very condescending, for someone who is supposed to be a supreme court judge.
I Remember Dr.Ford ...She is a very Intelligent Lady...Kavanaugh needs to be Booted out...He was a Drinker and Party Boy..😈
Dr Ford really didn't want protection, she wantes to get this traumatizing embarrasment story of her life out. I walked in the shoes as I've said n if this man went on with his life n now I see him trying to get this seat I to would say something. Let me ask did she mrs Ford know where Kavanaugh was all this time?
If this man is sober and be that pumped up yelling and screaming oh boy I don’t want to see him when he’s not Who’s at loss in all this shenanigans?The America people!
What questions is he dodging? I'm hearing very direct and concise answers to the questions being asked. Also the calendars are used as alibis as to where and what he was doing 30 years ago. That's very admissible in court. Does it prove his innocence? No. But it's evidence nonetheless and that is more than his accuser has.
Who do you know that keeps 30 year old calendars? LMAO
"Listen to the people I know!" Oh my word. ;)
There is a BIG difference between the witnesses saying “no it didn’t happen” and “i don’t remember it happening”
Regardless of the accusations, the very foundation of obtaining a Jurist Doctorate, is that law is void of emotion. I was for him until he lost his shit. A judge at the highest court can not have a grudge based on partisan, he ruined it all when he started yelling and throwing veiled threats. A judge is simply a referee between the prosecution and defense. A Supreme Court Judge is to interpret the constitution, not to create laws. That is what congress is for but they no longer do their jobs which is why this fiasco has become so political. We need to do away with this broken two party system so that we vote for people that fight for what the voter is wanting to change, in other words, vote who is like minded on as many SUBJECTS as you are. There may be some that differ, but you choose the person that will fight for as many as they can. NO ONE WILL EVER BE FOR 100%, but that is what compromise is which is why DC has fallen (Along with lobbyist, they need to go!) but we now vote on party lines and/or who has the best commercials. We no longer vote for the person that is MOST like minded. Also, we need term limits across the board. Too much time goes by where politicians begin to "owe" this person or that lobbyist favors. One more thing (Sorry) I understand a fifteen year old keeping sexual assault to themselves. HOWEVER, when you become 18..19...20..23..28... The statue of limitations would still be valid. If this is affecting someone all this time, up to 36 years, why did they not go to the authorities at say, 24, around the time this person obtained her doctorate in PSYCHOLOGY!... Of all people, I would think she would have went to the police back then. Now is not the time. Personally I think it happened, but they were just playing around like teens do and when she started to reject it as no longer teenage play, they got up and left. I think it clearly bothered her more then they assumed. I think she freaked out because she wanted to tell her parents, to see if her fear was valid, but she was more upset for her parents finding out she was there and drinking. That would have scared the shit out of me at 15. Anyway, regardless, he shouldn't be on thr bench, he ruined it. They need to nominate someone new and get it done.
the crying game is what i don't get. did he want to come off sensitive cause he came off like an unstable man. crying and sniffling at every turn was stranger than him swearing under oath that he had never been to a house party.
Jordan Burnham
He was talking about old emotional memories to make himself cry... soon as he’s ask questions he got attitude mean and angry.
I just have one question....did they drink and/or like beer???? ROFL
I cannot believe this guy's temper. It is absolutely unacceptable especially when he wants to be elevated to the Supreme Court. He is attacking his questioners with such defensive behaviour. Makes me wonder, what does he have to hide?
pseudointellectuable Wow and how would you have reacted it if you thought the charges were I thousand percent false
Its funny how hypocritical you guys are, Democrats go to massive lengths to make sure not a single one of Trump's judges are appointed that they go making false accusations that even the most simple minded can pick up. Its happened before in the past, it crazy how you guys don't pick up the bullshit they keep conjuring. That makes me wonder what shit these Dems have to hide...
If you were falsely accused would you set down and take it OR WOULD YOU FIGHT BACK? Righteous indignation was what he showed.
I watched every minute of testimony yesterday btw. With a clear conscious I can say this man is guilty of drinking beers (as I am) but he did not assault Ford. Also guilty of boofing.
Probably because they're attacking *him* and trying their hardest to make him seem guilty, they're making it almost impossible for him. Dunno, just a guess.
Kavanaugh does not sound credible. Belligerent retorts to answers; Evasive; Distracts attention; Mainly concerned with himself/how it affected his life rather than be empathetic or compassionate, or remorseful on how this event has impacted Dr. Ford and her life and family. He had a much longer, angrier and even louder opening statement as to overpower and shut down voices of Dr. Ford and any opponents. Kavanuagh had a really Well-rehearse inauthentic opening statement. He tries to rile up the audience so that we would also be as blinded by rage and disgust as he is, in order to further evade questions, filibuster senators and openly disrespects a senator when she talking about her father who struggled with Alcoholism. Does he really think that his performance at this hearing would silence all of his critics? If his reputation is truly important to him and if he truly didn't do it, then a polygraph test and an FBI investigation would only help him to prove his innocence, Right?
Why should he? It's a STALL tactic by democrats that they had planned for MONTHS!
But kavanugh did say his family holds no "ill will" against ford,
He said how sexual allegation is a serious matter
and even said he does not question on wether ford got raped.
He used examples of how he has been affected by sexual assult as his close friend was and used him for emotional healing,
he raised his daughter to pray for the woman who MAY be hurting and destroying their family...
Such actions were in NO WAY recipcated by ford's testimony.
2nd, the problem with an FBI investigation is the democrats could have asked for it A long time ago in where it wouldn't mess up with the hearings, but they chose to hold it until they could delay it until after midterms HOPING by then they'd have a majoriy senate and then basically block the seat until they hopefully win the 2020, then nominate a democratic judge.
It seems YOU are bias for Mrs. Ford, but sorry. Most people side with kavanaugh, and he's going to be a judge.
I am a indepdent, but the democrats have been acting disgraceful.
Wouldn’t you focus on how it has affected your life? To have a pristine reputation torn to pieces through unreliable accusations? Don’t even pull the self centered card
But the lady who doesnt remember when, who drove her home(she was 15 no uber back then) where or what but was convinced its "him". He has a life and family too.. if this is a lie its just as bad... remember she isnt claiming he raped her, she claimes he dry humped her while he was drunk 35 years ago.
You have a great point. Even if he didn't do it, his behavior and disposition imo is not that of a Supreme court justice. This is the highest court of our land and it requires that person to be better than us, more composed than us, more social minded than us. He doesn't have the ability to remain judicious in difficult situations, and that is normal for most of us, but that cannot be the a trait of a SCJ.
A true PREDITOR. A judge. Can someone ask him 1 Question does he believe that JUDGES DONT LIE?.
Ho Lee shittt! Mr. Graham the Keebler Elf got heated AF lollll
Hard to not watch Alyssa Milano’s reactions the whole time he is talking.
The Liberal Media and Democrates just gave America her First Red Pilled Supreme Court Justice!!! 😂 #MGTOWJustice
This DUDE CANT STOP CRYING BECAUSE HES LYING.
OH WHAT WORLD HAVE YOU BEEN LIVING IN!!!!! NEVER NEVER LAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm gonna wake up any minute from this freakin nightmare.
I have an incredible amount of bias, reasons other than sexual assault, disdain for this guy as to why I dont want this guy as a Surpeme court justice...
But... what does this mean for anyone accused of sexual assault? What level of evidence should there be in order for a person's life to be changed? I dont know and can't make that call myself consistently and without so much bias but THIS will likely set precedence for how these events may be handled... this is tough.
