Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) is encouraging the Senate Judiciary Committee to move forward in the process to confirm Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh as a third woman has emerged with sexual misconduct allegations regarding him.
"It's amazing to me that these kinds of things have come up way after the fact, way after the end of the committee hearings," Hatch said regarding the most recent allegations, according to CNN. "It shows there are people who would stop at nothing."
"I don't think it's fair to Brett Kavanaugh, I don't think it's fair to our system, I don't think it's fair to the process," Hatch said.
"I don't think we should put up with it, to be honest with you," he added.

You're in a safe state though I'm beginning to wonder if those Mormon women will continue to put up with you.

Don't allow them to lay their incompetence, lack of judgement and corruption on our side. They steam rolled the process and now want to complain that their candidate turns out to be a deviant at best and criminal at worst? They can kiss my a**.

(6,358 posts)...he needs a 5th conservative on the court in three weeks to sit for the oral arguments in Gamble v US. As it stands, hes got a 4-4 at best and that wont overturn it. If kavanaugh isnt seated by orals he cant vote. Hatch want 5-4 to overturn because it alone can moot anything mueller has done or will do to the trump crime family.

Of course, they are not at all concerned with fairness to the women coming forward or to the nation.
