Judiciary Committee members have set a 1:30 PM vote on Friday to send Brett Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court confirmation to the full Senate. The walkout came hours after Republican Senator Jeff Flake confirmed he will vote for Kavanaugh.
Democrats, including Congresswoman Kamala Harris (D-CA) and Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) got up and walked out in protest after it became clear that the Republicans had the votes necessary to confirm Kavanaugh.
The Democrats filed into the hallway and voiced their disappointment to reporters gathered in the hall. Senator Harris elbowed Senator Richard Blumenthal out of the way so she could speak at a microphone.
Harris complained that the Republicans are “pushing and pushing and ramming this thing through!” She called the vote a failure to protect victims.
Senator Flake was accosted in the elevator by two sex assault survivors who urged him to change his “yes” vote to no.
“I was sexually assaulted. Nobody believed me,” one survivor told him. “You’re telling all women in America that they don’t matter. They should just keep it to themselves.”
Senators Flake, Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins were holdouts following emotional testimonies given by Kavanaugh and his accuser Christine Blasey Ford before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday.
They all confirmed their plans to vote for Kavanaugh hours ago.
The Democrats continued to call for an FBI investigation into Ford’s allegations that Kavanaugh groped her at a house party 36 years ago.
The Republicans have the majority members in the Senate and the House. The Democrats hope to reverse the power after the upcoming midterm elections.
Collins and Murkowski get to look like “moderates” by being secretive, then do what they always do vote on party lines when it counts. They’re milking the optics here for all it’s worth.
This shouldn’t even be able to go down… very sad:(
I was going to type something about race, but I forgot they let Clarence get through too. The repubs are just a dirty and perverted party.
One thing is for sure America don’t give a damn about nothing and nobody but the white man. Kids shoootin up the school, so what…women being assaulted, so what. They voted for this administration and this is their prize.
Rubs hands together and smdh…it’s like watching the Young & Restless these days…..
They care about power and control!
Sad day for ALL women, esp the ones that support this shit. All these white women who support Kavanaugh are past child bearing years, but apparently, they forgot about their grand daughters. And for black women who support this mess…smh…no words…
I don’t ever wanna hear again in life how the Republican Party is the party of “family values” or so morally strong. They will do ANYTHING as long as it serves the party. 293 days the Senate wouldn’t even hold a hearing or vote on Merrick Garland’s nomination. But they want to rush this guy through in 2 months with all these accusations looming over his head? Why not wait for an investigation? Just disgusting.
You have to been blind,not to see this coming…The Republicans minds were already made up. The hearing was a form of formality
Kavanaugh is a weasel but the Democrats have only themselves to blame. They opened the door when they utilized the same tactics to ram through the Affordable Care Act. They opened this Pandora’s Box and it is now biting them in the ass
Two crazy liberals verbally assaulted Flake on the elevator and held him hostage. Can we have a Senate hearing on that? Glad this is over. It’s time that Roe vs Wade is reviewed. Funny that the women behind the law says she wishes she never supported abortion. That tells you something.
Well stated.
I’ve been saying since before the election, Hilary Clinton’s ego put Trump in the white house. Instead of sabotaging Bernie Sanders, she should have strategically appealed to run as his running mate as had she done that Bernie & Hilary would be in the white house today. First woman VP wasn’t good enough for her, the vote got split, and Trump seized the loophole.
Hilary Clinton’s ego put Trump in the white house.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So very true!!! The people wanted Bernie but she insisted that it was her ‘turn to be president’. Hillary and the Dems brought this travesty upon themselves.
BD: They opened the door when they utilized the same tactics to ram through the Affordable Care Act.
What????
It took almost two years to pass the ACA. Stop being misinformed.
Yeah Collins and Flake were both lying and we knew it.
A loophole he didn’t even want in the first place…now look what we got. A gov’t full of pervy rapist and assaulters.
The white man.
You mean 9.
There’s nothing ‘moderate’ about Murkowski or Collins.
After they voted to remove the fillerbuster for Supreme Court nominees they lost the appearance of being considered moderates.
Democratic plantation or Republican plantation. It’s all the same damn plantation and we the people are the ones who suffer. We really do need a multi party system because the game is rigged against us.
Politics is so trashy. There is no respect for the violation of women. No one drags men, who come out 55 years later to share being abused my a priest. No one makes an effort to absolve the priest from sin & a crime. No one calls those men gold diggers.
HATEFUL MEN & SELF HATING WOMEN.
No surprise here! We have a rogue president! For all the women, liberals, minorities, immigrants, those living below the poverty line, and conservatives who voted for Trump, continue to love it [MAGA] or deal with it!
The lower courts are a joke, and the Supreme court will usually side with them! The American people are being played and used, but too dumb to know it!
TEAM GOD, ALL THE WAY!
Exactly. Bernie’s campaign was on fire and Hilary’s campaign had no soul. With all of her years of political experience, it’s crazy how no one in her camp thought to switch gears and instead beat a dying horse.
The gender specific I’m With Her slogan was bad strategy. They could have come up with something fresher. But people want to be with the winner no matter what gender. Obama was a winner. Bernie was winning. Hilary wasn’t and it wasn’t because she’s a woman. She just lacked the spark.
Right (duh, my bad) only 8 right now because of Kennedy..
But yeah, agree completely.
Good Point.
Those same republicans that voted him in are the same republicans that are turning a blind eye while these priest fukk their kid’s.
I know. It is sickening. Old Grown people. Educated and monied & still silly.
Get the popcorn.
No one makes an effort to absolve the priest from sin & a crime.
_______________
Just said something similar.
You ain’t lied!
These same hypocritical white men will send their Mistress or daughter who they are having incestuous relations with to an abortion doctor.
It’s all the same damn plantation
_______________
NO LIES TOLD HERE!
Yup smdh… I feel for future generations. This nomination will be a huge setback.
Smdh!
You know it! Just about a year ago, a “pro-life” Republican congressman quit after it was discovered he asked his mistress to have an abortion. Hypocrites down to the bone.
I said this yesterday when they had this plastered all over the tv yesterday. Interrupting shows and they knew all along they were still going to nominate Kavanaugh anyway. I missed the Young & the Restless for nothing.
and soda
This the kind of shit that make you wanna Omarosa they ass….we definitely cant beat em…but join em and beat em at their own game…..?? maybe their was method to her madness
Judge Judy was interrupted!
All those tax dollars wasted. A slap in my face. My hard earned money being wasted.
This whole episode reflects poorly on Republicans though. They could have allowed for an FBI investigation, but didn’t, which is nakedly partisan and makes the SC look partisan.
Interesting thing is, usually it’s more conservative voters who care about the SC, but this has drawn so much attention that it’s polling near the top of ALL voters’ concerns. And Kavanaugh is the most unpopular nominee since Robert Bork,
That’s the American way. We can do it but you can’t.
Hypocrisy is one of the key principles of this country. They call it government regulations.
After Roe v. Wade is eventually overturned, it’s going to be the minorities who are affected, not these white women because they white boyfriends, fathers, sugar daddies, and such will still get them those abortions if they want or need them. Just because they try to make it illegal, it wont be illegal for them, but it will be for us.
If she never got let go her position would have remained the same.
Smiling and going with the flow. She just know her time was coming. She felt unwelcomed but she wasn’t going to leave on her own.
If the end game is to be like Omarosa, the terrorists have won. lol
Thank you.
?
!!!!!!
And maybe some Merlot. Just sayin since it’s Fri and all.
Lol
Well than…scratch the soda…..and pure me a glass (leave the bottle) of Merlot…..lol
??chile …Lol
but are Victor and Jack brothers though???..the damned power went out during that episode and i never got to find out
I guess I don’t see why anyone is surprised, Lindsey and Mitch flat out said that they would push for the vote and confirmation regardless of Ford’s testimony. Here we are. All I can say is for those that blew off the 2016 because of some stupid emails, take a bow.
Incorrect….if, and thats a big IF, Roe v Wade is overturned, it wont make abortion illegal, it will send it back to the states to decide whether or not they will allow it. So basically it will be legal in blue states, and more than likely illegal in red states. Personally, I feel the govt shouldnt have a role in what a woman does with her uterus….im just against the govt subsidizing it.
Lmaooooo…ya’ll are mess
I don’t know…….wouldn’t it be funny if they were? lmbo
Here for it all…… : }
Did you read the story about the mom (Trump supporter) that was on the news saying groping “is no big deal”? She had her teen daughters behind her.
https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-supporter-tells-daughters-groping-205025189.html
LMAO
She’s an idiot for that
Cheers!..?
If her daughters ever got sexually assaulted/raped, she’d be the reason they wouldn’t speak up about it till later down the line. With her mentality of “it’s no big deal”, she’s probably instilled it in them as well, just accept it, no biggie. Smdh..
Lindsey Graham is so full of shit. He pretends to have morals, but doesn’t.
Number 45….
Controls Executive Branch, Legislative Branch, Judicial Branch.
This was not the way it was supposed to work.
I wonder how We The People can change “lifetime” appointments?
ALL jobs should have term limits… including Legislative.
Nothing I said was incorrect. Take what I said and still apply it to individual states.
Yeah his true colors came out right after his best buddy John McCain died and he threw him under the bus! Talk about a snake!
I freaked out when they said they were discussing it in the strom thurman room. Must b nice being a racist.
The basically ignored a rape accusations and pushed him threw anyway. Anybody still believing the people’s voice or opinion matters is just willfully ignorant. These people do what they want, we are just spectators at this point.
Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins are 2 Republican women who haven’t said how they’ll vote, so we still dont know if the Republicans have the votes they’ll need when this goes to the Senate floor.
Indeed. His buddy John Mccain would be so disappointed to see him acting like this.
Victor is stilllllllllll on Y&R?? Cotdamn I know he old as hell by now! He & Jack still fugging on the same womens? LMAO – I haven’t watched in ages, but Y&R was my shat!
I thought he was gonna have a anurism yesterday. I was looking for a nose bléed busted vein or something.
*through
Saw this on Twitter and I thought it was funny..

Thank you for giving me hope…at this point I’m too sad to be scared :”(
Amazing to look at all these comments and the views from so many so-called black folks.see the usual suspects still drinking that CNN dem kool-aid instead of looking at the facts in the matter.You people still think dems are good for the advancement for blacks are kidding yourself.GET OFF THE PLANTATION AND BECOME AN INDEPENDENT THINKER for once in your life..
Sad day for being a male in this country when accusations without proof is all you need to damage a reputation..
Anyone with a husband,son,brother,father,uncle should be very concerned and worried going foward after this.
Oh shut your ass up lying like a coon
BWAHAHAHAHAHA….the demented DemoCraps thought this last-minute coup was going to work. What they are really concerned about is the unleashing of the FISA warrant that was illegally given to spy on an American citizen Donald Trump and more.
They wanted in exchange for “pulling back from exposing the FISA warrant files” stop the Kavanaugh hearing with this foolish woman Ford. It failed. If any of you didn’t know, the FISA warrant was illegally obtained. Not only that, the Obama administration including the usual crew like Hillary, Comey, Loretta Lynch and others are all conspirators.
It is a huge scandal that the vast, frightening surveillance powers of our intelligence agencies, normally forbidden from snooping on American citizens, were used to spy on a presidential campaign antagonistic to the elected president. Far too slowly, the underlying documents that permitted this are coming to light. The FISA warrant relies on the discredited Steele dossier almost entirely. It is the first evidence cited and forms the bulk of the evidence. (Steele is a British spy they hired to create the dossier.) Yet they tried to claim that Trump was colluding with foreign entities like Russia to interfere in US elections. BWAHAHA…
The identity of the FISA court judge or judges who approved these warrants remains secret. He or they have a lot of explaining to do. “Former British spy Christopher Steele visited the State Department in October 2016 and briefed officials there about his work on the infamous anti-Trump dossier.” Obama administration’s State Department bore equal responsibility for presenting the FISA court unverified hearsay to justify spying on the Trump campaign. It has long been known that the Clinton campaign and DNC paid Steele to compile the dossier.
TRUMP HAS ALL THE GOODS It may appear that he’s “unhinged and don’t know what’s going on” but Trump is calling the shots, for the most part. He let the liberal-libtards act the fool in the media while he does what he needs to do in the background. The opening of the files of the FISA warrant is heavily damaging and the DemoCraps and some RepubliCons are running scared. Get ready because they will do just about anything and I mean ANYTHING for Trump not to reveal what he knows to the public. And it’s much more than the FISA warrant files.
GET PREPARED FOLKS…something drastic could happen before the mid-term elections. Get all your ducks in a row because the DemoCraps will destroy this country to try and retain power. Check the Trump Emergency Alert Test on October 3rd. He’s testing the waters. Pay attention….Trump is getting ready to expose all and there’s no telling what the cabal, establishment, Deep State might do…! The alert is a test, of the U.S. government’s expanded emergency alert system. Trump is NOT DOING IT FOR NOTHING…he knows how crazy these fools are and he needs to be able to warn the populace….!!!!
I’m not responding to imbeciles and delusional individuals who have ABSOLUTELY NO CLUE what the phawk is happening…Good Luck
Lol Oh my goodness. You are beyond disturbing.
Having Trump as the Republican party leader reflects poorly on the GOP but all they care about is power.
It was the height of irony and projection by Lindsey Graham when he claimed that Democrats were going hard on Kavanaugh because we want power.
GTFOOHWTS Lindsey and take your vapors and fainting couch with you.
These people who command a six figure income from tax payers walk out of work on paid time…what is this suppose to mean and do?
this is what Sandra and these fools really believe….you see how crazy he sound…WOW…In reality everything in that dossier , except the pee tape, has come to light as being true
What is a nicca like you doing being worried about immigrants and liberals? You one of the useful idiots white liberals love because you don’t have a dam clue what’s going on.
Amen now you speaking some truth here. We need some alpha males to reign in these women or they are going to continue to bring this country to ruin. It’s a war on men for sure.
All of Ford witnesses denied her story. It was a setup and failed.
“Two of them are male. Mark Judge and Patrick Smyth have both provided letters, via their attorneys, to the Senate Judiciary Committee denying any knowledge of any party such as the one Ford describes.
There is a third witness, the young woman that accompanied her to the alleged party and who the young Christine Blasey abandoned in a house filled with drunk males who, according to Ford, had rape on their minds. Now the young woman has been located. And she has provided a statement, by way of her attorney:her lawyer, Howard Walsh, released a statement to the Senate Judiciary Committee..“Simply put,” Walsh said, “Ms. Keyser does not know Mr. Kavanaugh and she has no recollection of ever being at a party or gathering where he was present, with, or without, Dr. Ford.” The lawyer acknowledged that Keyser is a lifelong friend of Ford’s.”
This woman is a psycho.
They always grandstanding .Dems are out of touch with their base .Thats why they lost. Always crying protesting resisting and failing. Winners are at the cook out, fish fry, schools, etc. Show your face rev up your base. These paid protesters winning though .Get your bills paid 4get who paying .
Preach. Vote em out. They comfy term after term flying and lying around DC
These fools are still mad because Donald J. Trump won the Presidency in 2016.Democrats aka The Alt-Left aka Globalist puppets are protesting Kavanaugh because they care more about killing the unborn,than politicizing rape/ sexual assault. They parade liars who are only credible to Alt-Left zombies…
so sad but true…
get married if single close your legs and you will be alright..
karma is interesting…..
we really dont know what happened. devil fienstein could have prevented all of this crap…
Yep that sounds like hellery… I want the real power not the vice power
2 sides of the same coin. During the last presidency, the democrats had both houses and still produced no bills to protect and serve black voters.
I’ll reply. When and where did they say the made-up dossier was true? Nothing was proven true that’s why you don’t hear anything more about it. Get schooled moron with your crazy behind
The Donald is a real man. We need more of those today to get these crazy azz women in line.
Do you know that Odumba was good friends with Harvey Weinstein and he visited Odumba in the white house at least 13 times and then Odumba sent his daughter to him for an internship?
Odumba sent his daughter to Harvey Weinstein for an internship now she smokes drugs. Are those two correlated.
This stuff was happening way before The Donald got into office. He’s just bringing the roaches in the light. Black folks killing up black folks by the thousands each year. What about that?
And your behind wouldn’t have a check every month whether it’s welfare or a job either if it wasn’t for the white man. You wouldn’t even have a computer. Go to Liberia or Haiti if the white man bothers you so much.
How did you come up with the repubs are a dirty and perverted party when it was the demoncrats Odumba that pushed the phag agenda on society and fought for men to use the little girls bathroom. The Demoncrats are the one created this farce not the republicans. Child go take a seat
I thought he said he has his vote but is still wanting an FBI investigation on Kavanaugh to prove his innocence????
That’s why I blocked that annoying troll a long time ago.
A BIG HELLO, AND THANK YOU!
Funny, that’s some kind of protocol!
This is so true! A lot of Blacks to this day do not know that the Democratic Party defended slavery, started the Civil War, founded the KKK, and fought against every major civil rights act in U.S. history. We fail as a people when we fail to learn and teach our children their history. Take a moment out of your busy day and learn just how corrupt the Democrats are and how we should NOT be supporting them. Every Black person should be an Independent and MAKE each person running for office EARN our Vote.
https://youtu.be/g_a7dQXilCo
But she is white so she must be right!
PREACH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
This is NOT TRUE! The reason the democraps are freaking out is their LIE about the dossier is being EXPOSED! You should be “PISSED” that the FBI or any organization can string you or anyone you know up with a lie. When are We The People going to stop believing everything we HEAR and learn how to READ with comprehension. These white folk stay believing that we won’t read!
https://youtu.be/g_a7dQXilCo
Everyone but the SCOTUS are expendable as they do have TERM LIMITS it is called voting them out of office!
I pray NO WOMAN is ever able to dismiss any male you know with just a conversation and NO PROOF for this is what you are fostering by believing any of this mess! Black people are already considered guilty until proven innocent and now we want to empower them even more by allowing them to not need PROOF? Really? I pray it never happens to you.
So now all a woman has to do is accuse you and you’re guilty. Good luck because believe me that day is here!
Lindsey was absolutely correct and one day you will see just how corrupt the democraps are. REading is fundamental but they TRUST (even black politicians) that we will not read to reproof for ourselves.
https://youtu.be/g_a7dQXilCo
And so you are fighting Kavanaught so that you are able to commit murder on an innocent child conceived by irresponsible people? This is so sad. I wish I could share with you the picture of my 26 week grandson that was born w/o lungs too soon. His heart was beating for over 3 hours AFTER he was prematurely born. Shame on you!
Omarosa was FIRED from 3 different positions under Clinton (a democrat) before she was hired/fired by Trump. REading is fundamental!
You are right – you probably would have been better off watching the young and the restless.

ABSOLUTELY! Sometimes it would have been better if their father had allowed the ability to procreate to just hit the sheet!
https://youtu.be/g_a7dQXilCo
You are really clueless!
https://youtu.be/g_a7dQXilCo
Sometimes women just LIE!
https://youtu.be/g_a7dQXilCo
Sometimes this is correct. We vote against our own interest because we are party affiliated. Every Black person should be an Independent and make the person running for office EARN our Vote but by claiming to be a democrat they KNOW they don’t have to do anything for us but provide a few freebies.
https://youtu.be/g_a7dQXilCo
He is actually telling the truth! Kamala laid on her back for the married Wilie Brown for YEARS!!!!!!!! He is actually stilled married to the same woman to this day. No woman is going to support Kamala’s adulterous azz for president.
https://youtu.be/g_a7dQXilCo
They stated themselves they didn’t even read it. The Democrats are nothing more than modern day KKK hiding behind their racism.
https://youtu.be/g_a7dQXilCo
So now a woman can accuse you of a crime and not remember anything or provide any proof that you did anything but that she said it is true. You really want to live in that world?
https://youtu.be/g_a7dQXilCo
https://youtu.be/g_a7dQXilCo Lean your history!
Ignorance is not an excuse not to know your history.
https://youtu.be/g_a7dQXilCo
PREACH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
https://youtu.be/g_a7dQXilCo
I pray you don’t have a male relative that is ever accused of committing a crime and all they need to convict him is the word of an unstable woman who can’t even tell you how she got to a party that everyone she named (including her BEST FRIEND) says did not happen.

Black lives don’t matter unless they are killed by the police.

And she STILL wouldn’t have done a damn thing to make our community better.

Or you could have voted for your better interest!

Really in all actuality – the democrats are the perverted party.

I don’t follow her like that. My fundamentals are fine.
I’m pretty sure you don’t know what the fuc you talking about.
Fuc you. I don’t need a bunch of white men telling me what I can do with my body.
So very true…
Hey Rhyme! ?
I know my history.
I live in the present. Now go troll someone else.
Wow you’re quite stupid.
Keep parroting that line after it’s been proven false.
He makes my skin crawl. So disturbing.
AMEN
So the truth bothers you? Thats why when the shish hit the fan black folks will be crying and hollering that it’s a conspiracy against black folks when The Donald tried to alarm everyone but dummies like you don’t pay attention. You better listen
Unless you saw her taking the peen, i call bullshat
