Sanders: Kavanaugh accusers 'have risked their lives to come forward'

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) condemned Republicans and the White House for their treatment of the two women who have accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct.

"Dr. Christine Blasey Ford and Deborah Ramirez have risked their lives to come forward and tell their stories," Sanders wrote in a tweet on Monday.

"Republican Senators, their staff and the Trump administration must stop disparaging these brave women and treat them with respect," he added.

Sanders joined other Democrats in calling for a delay in Kavanaugh's confirmation process until "a full and fair investigation" into the allegations can be completed.
