This happened in the u. S. Senate while that nominee was being assessed for the job. My family and my name have been totally and permanently destroyed. By vicious and false additional accusations. You have replaced advice and consent with search and destroy. Since my nomination in july there has been a frenzy on the left, anything to block my confirmation. People have been willing to do anything to make any physical threat against my family to, send any violent email to my wife, to make any kind of allegation against me and against my friends to blow me up and take me down. You sowed to the wind. For decades to come, i fear that the whole country will reap the whirlwind.

The democratic side

We are also going to talk to a senator calling on her republican colleagues and the president to recognize the value of women and end this nomination even before the hearing. We are 13 hours from history. What do you say . Lets get after it. Another wild day, cracks in the dam you could say tonight as Brett Kavanagh fights to keep his Supreme Court nomination alive.

They are anonymous. Its hard to put weight on those the
Swe swetnick says she witnessed inappropriate behavior by Brett Kavanagh and mark judge. Swetnick is being represented by Michael Avenatti, the same attorney representing stormy daniels. President trump latching on to that detail and reacting just moments ago with this tweet. Avenatti is a thirdrate lawyer who is good at making false accusations like he did on me and like he is now doing on bridge Brett Kavanagh, he is just looking for attention and doesnt want people to look at his past record and relationship.
