There is a disdain for women that is emanating from the U.S. Senate that has a pungent, rotten odor. pbs.org/newshour/polit…
There is misogyny in the U.S. Senate pure and simple, whether it’s trying to undercut the CAA Reform Act or the way that Dr. Blasey Ford is being treated. And women across the country know it when they see it.
It’s no mystery why @POTUS @SenateMajLdr & GOP @senjudiciary members don’t want Mark Judge, an admitted peeping Tom, misogynist, racist, & homophobe who pines for the days of Jim Crow & wants people w/diseases to stop trying to find cures, to testify. mediamatters.org/research/2018/…
This is a railroaded nomination process and @senjudiciary and @SenateMajLdr had better put a stop to it. Women are outraged, and unlike what happened with the Anita Hill hearings, we’re going to do something about it! washingtonpost.com/video/politics…
That includes @POTUS, who has scorned a survivor of sexual assault for not going to the police when she was 15-years-old to report a traumatic and humiliating crime! #WhyIDidntReport
According to @TheJusticeDept, 2 out of 3 sexual assaults go unreported to the police. And it’s no wonder. Look at the way this distinguished professor, who has a sterling reputation, is being hung and crucified by @POTUS, the U.S. Senate, and GOP Members of @senjudiciary.
No matter how malignant or vicious they are, @POTUS believes the men because he has a history of doing the same thing.
He bragged to Access Hollywood about “grabbing them by the pussy” and getting away with it. He paid off numerous women he had sex with even though he was married with a newborn baby at home.
Who knows how many sexual assaults he’s committed in his lifetime? At least 19 women have publicly accused @POTUS of sexual assault, harassment, or having extra marital affairs with them. chicagotribune.com/news/nationwor…
Grabbing a woman under the table at Sardi’s, groping women sitting next to you on flights, and forcing your tongue down someone’s throat is sexual assault!
These aren’t cases of misunderstandings or political attacks. There is an undeniable, severe, and pervasive pattern with this President and it’s time that @POTUS, and everyone like him, be held accountable. #MeToo #MeTooCongress #TimesUp #EnougIsEnough

Trump also said the supplemental investigation, which he called an "update," must be "limited in scope and completed in less than one week." Will the FBI be allowed to talk to Judge, Tom, PJ, Bernie, Squi and Timmy?
“Skis” is short for “brewskis,” or beers. The entry was July 1, a Thursday. And Sen. Mitchell asked him about it.
MITCHELL: The entry says, and I quote, go to ‘Timmy’s for skis with Judge, Tom, P.J. Bernie and ... Squi?’
KAVANAUGH: Squi. It’s a nickname.
MITCHELL: To what does this refer, and to whom?
KAVANAUGH: [after explaining the “Tobin’s House” part] It looks like we went over to Timmy’s. You want to know their last names, too? I’m happy to do it.

.@POTUS has been the Maligner-in-Chief recently. Here are all the people and groups he has attacked in just the past seven days:
#PuertoRico, which he threatened to abandon as thousands of our fellow American citizens face starvation & fatal illness;
2) @NBCNews, which he threated w/retaliation for exercising its first Amendment right and duty to report on his wish for 10x more nukes;
