Of weeks. we went on to clear, much as make it clear for anyone tuning in, you re talking about your colleague of new york who i was just speaking with, talking about the divide in this country and the vitriol and sometimes even the danger and people coming together but their anger. congresswoman, you talk about where the women s voices are right now. dianne feinstein sat on some information, she said she wanted to keep the anonymity of dr. ford but would have forced the process to is an 11th hour view of something that i just want to hear for you. reserve time for both of the people being considered and their stories, both judge kavanaugh and dr. ford. i don t know all of the circumstances of why this got released when it did. i do understand the desire of someone not to have their name public. i have stories that to this day i would never make public ....
