A House Democrat called on his colleagues Wednesday to "rise up" if Republican senators push forward with Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation without hearing from his sexual assault accuser, Christine Blasey Ford.
"For the men and women of the House of Representatives, we must rise up in disgust and anger and make certain that our voice is clear," Rep. John Garamendi, D-Calif., said during an interview with CNN. "Get the facts out. Give this woman the benefit of the doubt. Don't treat her as so many women have been treated time after time in courtroom after courtroom."
Only the Senate has advise and consent responsibilities under the Constitution, rendering the House powerless to express any concerns over nominees named by the president for certain administration positions.
Instead, Garamendi suggested that he and other House lawmakers march over to the Senate because Kavanaugh's nomination was a "defining moment in the #MeToo movement."(continued)

Give this woman the benefit of the doubt.
If they do it with enough participation, think of all the things that the GOP can pass while they are having their tantrum.
Yes, please do have an uprising.
Raise hell.
Pitch a daily hissy fit on the house floor.
Make it last through 6 November.
PLEASE.
Democrats don’t want facts when it comes to rape. They just want conforming narratives.
If they riot, treat the Congresscritters like any other rioters.
Uh, she’s refusing to testify.
“I hope they do,what a bunch of idiots;)“
It would make the best campaign commercial ever. If any republicans had the balls to use it.

There’s just no reasoning with these leftist radicals. They are purely emotion driven creatures.
The low hanging fruit has weighed in ....
So simple even a caveman can understand it (but apparently not dhimmicrats)
Do these worthless aholes realize how moronic they are because none of them ever said this about clinton?
Notice that all three Democrats now involved with this woman have been from California?
Just saw Blumenthal whining about Judge Kavanaugh and all I could think of was ‘gosh Dem men are d***less’. Hate to be crude, but Dem men are an embarrassment to MEN and women.
That’s the Duluth Model speaking, not the Congresscritter.
dickhead..and I don’t use that sort of language often...but that’s what this joker is. Guess they want to top the lynching they gave to Clarence Thomas.
Will it be as dramatic and awe inspiring as the dopey looking Dem hags all wearing one color pantsuits at the Trump State of the Union Address in 2017?
Wide Load signs had to be put up as the chamber aisles became One Way. Threw a lot of weight around, let’s just say.
Well there are two quintiles below the mean on the intelligence IQ scale.
errr, who?
.
Ford’s lawyer says she won’t testify until a thorough investigation has been done. Grassley says no go on that.
Next move will be to insist that if she testifies, dozens of character witnesses must be permitted to testify as well.
The goal is to delay, delay, delay - by whatever means.
Who gives a rip what a democrap from California thinks? They’re ruining their state. Why let them do the same thing to the rest of America?
I wonder where the first shots will be fired?
