Thursday morning began the Senate Judiciary Committee’s hearing of Brett Kavanaugh’s first accusor, Dr. Christine Blasey Ford. Dr. Ford recounted in graphic detail how when she was 15, a then 17-year-old Kavanaugh attempted to sexually assault her at a party. This hearing is coming in preparation of the Senate’s vote to confirm Kavanaugh into the Supreme Court.

Dr. Ford, I am in awe of your bravery. — Ellen DeGeneres (@TheEllenShow) September 27, 2018
I’m in awe of Dr. Ford’s bravery. This Kavanaugh response is insultingly bad. I hope this is the last time this unqualified & immoral man has our country’s attention. We have enough of those men to deal with right now, none of whom deserve to be hired FOR LIFE. Least of all him. — Ben Platt (@BenSPLATT) September 27, 2018
Out of the blue, a hero steps up and I’m in awe. I know the pain of these kinds of memories, Dr. Ford. Memories that are indelibly imprinted on your brain no matter how many years go by. I, like millions of women across America, are behind you and thank you profoundly. — Sally Field (@sally_field) September 27, 2018

Today's hearing reminds us that to really tell a woman's story, one must begin with a 15-minute preamble from an elderly man about why her story is suspicious. #KavanaughHearings — Full Frontal (@FullFrontalSamB) September 27, 2018
Following the testimony by both Kavanaugh and Dr. Ford, the Senate Judiciary will vote on Friday as to whether or not Kavanaugh will be appointed into the United States Supreme Court.
