She was such a great listener. Kindness and empathy throughout. Of course, lets dont forget the notepad moment im here. Ask your questions, all i need is my United States senate notepad and Starbucks Coffee and were doing great. Thanks to all of you. Stand by. Senator graham gavels to order. Women conservatives have had a hard time. Some want to marginalize the contribution because you come out on a different side of an issue, abortion. This hearing is not to punch through a Glass Ceiling but a concrete barrier around conservative women. Youll shatter that barrier. Ive never been more proud of a nominee than i have of you.

Both gorsuch and kavanaugh sworn in at the white house at big, lavish events mar
Sworn in in august 2010. Neither Justice Sotomayor nor Justice Kagan was sworn in at the white house, though. They were both sworn in at the court, at the Supreme Court, as a gesture of respect for the independence of the judiciary, for the fact that a justice of the Supreme Court should never be primarily known for his or her association with the president who gave them their appointment. Again, both elena kagan and Sonia Sotomayor sworn in at the court, not at the white house. The Trump Administration does not have those same sensitivities.
