This case has been one of the hottest court hearings in recent memory. The new york times had this to say summarizing the accusations made against Brett Kavanaugh:
“Three women have publicly accused Judge Kavanaugh of sexual assault or misconduct, including Dr. Blasey, who was the first to come forward.
During a Senate hearing last week, Dr. Blasey, a university professor and research psychologist, described a chilling scene at a high school gathering more than 30 years ago, when, she said, a young, drunken Mr. Kavanaugh pinned her to a bed, tried to rip off her clothes and placed his hand over her mouth to muffle her screams for help.
Deborah Ramirez, who works for a county housing department in Colorado, accused Mr. Kavanaugh of exposing himself to her at a drunken college party.
The third woman, Julie Swetnick, who has held a variety of public- and private-sector jobs, said that Mr. Kavanaugh was “present” when she was raped at a high school party.
The allegations have raised several questions about Judge Kavanaugh, including his drinking; references to a woman in his high school yearbook; a letter he wrote to high school friends ahead of a week at the beach; and his involvement in a bar fight years ago.”(New York Times).
The questions you may want to ask yourselves and blog about on this post may be, Was/is this case about rape at all or is it about control of the supreme court? Was Donald Trump just trying to get a member into the court that supports his views without caring if he was a sex offender? Was the left just stalling until the midterm elections of 2018 so that they may once again gain majority control of senate and just block Kavanaugh completely?
