process? if you look at all of those tweets, absolutely. you can see the sentiment running through those tweets. julian castro was the very first one to tweet his support for impeaching judge kavanaugh, shortly after the new york times excerpt was released last night, and then kamala harris who questioned judge kavanaugh during his confirmation hearing in the senate, she tweeted this. she tweeted, i sat through those hearings, brett kavanaugh lied to the u.s. senate and most importantly to the u.s. people. he was put on the court through a sham process and he must be impeached. senator elizabeth warren then also tweeted her support for impeachment. if you look at the second half of her tweet, she writes, these newest revelations are disturbing. like the man who appointed him and she s talking about president trump there kavanaugh should be impeached. i mentioned julian castro, broubeto o rourke and pete buttigieg also support impeachment.
the 2020 democrats are pouncing on new reporting today in the new york times. the paper printed excerpts of a new book detailing a new allegation of sexual misconduct against supreme court justice brett kavanaugh. julian castro, kamala harris, beto o rourke, and pete buttigieg all tweeted their disapproval and say kavanaugh should be impeached. bernie sanders says he favors a constitutional mechanism to hold kavanaugh tweeted this photo. quote, let us never forget what courage looks like. and you can see a picture there of miss ford. the president went to bat for him, saying that the justice department should rescue kavanaugh. kung lau is cnn s national correspondent. some very strong words today, kyung, evidence that there are still some strong feelings about the kavanaugh confirmation
introduce articles of impeachment. ed: so, interesting. on one hand there you have a democrat perhaps being consistent going back to kavanaugh in terms of their position. pete: sure. ed: in saying look there is credible allegations in his mind so you have got to go. to your point, jed, what about due process. justin fairfax the democrat has no due process. just has allegations out there. he has denied them. there hasn t been any sort of investigation. yet it s not just a democratic delegate teeing off on justin fairfax a fellow democrat. you have a litany of 2020 democratic hopefuls who do not appear to have learned anything from the kavanaugh situation because are immediately saying get out. pete: they have no other choice. they have set such a standard they have no other choice. elizabeth warren, kamala harris, kristin gillibrand cory booker, castro, bernie sanders. these folks all lining up saying he has got to go. i will say this about the number one, northam, the governor, they ha
she did tell people at the time and ran across the hall crying. people on the left do deem it kavanaugh allegation. pete: unlike kavanaugh because facts do matter. ed: facts matter and we want to be clear that the democratic lieutenant governor of virginia justin fairfax put out this statement i deny this latest unsubstantiated allegation. it is demonstrably false, he says. i have never forced myself on anyone, ever. i demand a full investigation into these unsubstantiated and false allegations. but, again, that is not stopping some in his own party who are saying get out. jedediah: some have been consistent on this issue. deserve due process talking about kavanaugh at the time saying let s investigate it and give them due process and let s not jump to a conclusion. many folks on the left. folks will remember did jump to conclusions when it came to kavanaugh. pete: leaped. jedediah: when christie blasey ford did not have confirmation. people contradicted her story or supported
kavanaugh s character at the time. so this is a little bit different. but, i support the consistency of people on both sides of the aisle who have said, you know what? let s investigate it and give it due process. pete: pretty much the only consistency has come from conservatives and republicans who say kavanaugh was so unfairly treated we are going to give deference enough to democrats. if he says it s demonstrably false means he can demonstrates it is false. jedediah: some democrats not tolerating it. hope from virginia saying he will file articles of impeachment if fairfax doesn t resign. take a listen. as the father of three young girls, i cannot stand by silently while the lieutenant governor is facing multiple, credible allegations of sexual assault. i believe these women. he needs to resign immediately. should the lieutenant governor fail to do so, on monday, i intend to
