one thing we learned for certain, democrats badly want control of the supreme court and they will do whatever it takes. they are afraid the latest exhibit comes from a lawyer for pornographic actors, stormy daniels, who has a new layer tonight. her name is julie swetnick. she alleges that about 35 yearsl ago, brett kavanaugh was part of a group of teenage boys in the washington, d.c., area who committed a series of gang rapes. kavanaugh himself seem to be bewildered today when he wasas asked about the claim. he described it as being part of episode of the twilight zone. in the coming days we will have time to carefully assess all of these claims and the many counterclaims in the story and we will bring all of that to you.th but tonight we will ask you questions and several come to mind. here s the most obvious one.es what exactly is them allegation here in this new claim? richard blumenthal did not hesitate to give his assessment of what it is. watch. what we have now, for the
how dare they ask, they scold, questions are forbidden here. when you hear lindsey graham, a sitting senator, say things like i find it curious that these charges were not brought forward until 2018, come on. and it s more than that. he said, i hope people will be highly suspicious of the allegation because why would she go to ten parties, why would indicate reasonableo person continue to hang around like this ? if you talk to people in the world of the people that advocate for victims and survivors of sexual violence and sexual assault, they call this victim blaming. tucker: they call it victim blaming, but it depends on who you think the victim is. dumb people on television have already made up their minds about that and they would like you to shut up. but there s no reason you should, you re an american citizen and it s your country. it s your supreme court and your justice system.. this process does not belong to cable news anchors or creepy
either. tucker: but this is different than what bill cosby was just sentenced for. the allegation now is that brett kavanaugh participated in public rapes, he stood in line in a queue of boys waiting to rape a woman in the middle of a party,r among his peers in a very small, tightly knit community right here in washington. so is it really plausible and he did this not once, but ten times. honestly, be real with me. does that make sense to you? the answer to that is, bring her in and have her testify in public. tucker: i m uncomfortable with that. what makes me uncomfortable is that the fbi is not being brought in to investigate that. that was true with dr. ford s allegations and all these others. tucker: may i ask an obvious question? this has been going on for a month, his confirmation. it s the night before the hearing, right before the vote. why, anytime in the last 35he years, did she not report this, these multiple rapes that she saw?w?
examination not only of her, but of the new avenatti allegation. that affidavit is so deeply flawed and so open-ended thatea any good lawyer, any good defense attorney would be able to tear that apart in 30 seconds. it s an embarrassment to the law that anyone would file an affidavit like that filled with hearsay. filled with i was raped, but heated in rape, there were witnesses and people told me, i have been ten times. i went back and i knew there were rapes going on but i went this is such a deeply flawed affidavit. tucker: let me ask you about that. cross some line where there could be professional consequences? there is a professional bar association, could they act onrt that? i don t think it reaches that
and it would be shocking that it hadn t come out already. i find it shocking that any woman would see a child being gang raped and didn t do anything about it.e much less that she would continue to go to parties where this happened. it s a very difficult thing for me to believe although maybe she has evidence to support this. tucker: raising most questions, i will remind you, his victim blaming.r: you should beos ashamed. the first story that came out seems like it at least it could be a possibility but each subsequent allegation is getting more and more ridiculous and that makes it seem like the entire thing as a coordinated effort rather than a serious problem that serious people should be taking. tucker: very quickly, i hate about you on the spot, do you think that the nomination process will go forward or will this successfully do what s hidden intended to do, which is stop at? apart from the politics, it s important for i the country that we not make this the standard by w
