Twenty-two people were arrested Tuesday morning after they protested Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation hearing, U.S. Capitol Police said.
Protesters could be heard urging senators on the Senate Judiciary Committee to vote against Kavanaugh's confirmation and to adjourn Tuesdays hearing.
Senators, we demand you vote no, one protester yelled.
Another urged senators to "be a hero and cancel this year."
"This should be an impeachment proceeding and not a confirmation hearing," another said.
The womens rights group UltraViolet confirmed that its executive director and co-founder, Shaunna Thomas, was among those arrested on Tuesday.
The group argues that Kavanaugh would be the deciding vote to gut Roe v. Wade and criminalize abortion if confirmed.
Senators, on behalf of the millions of women across the country whose rights will be stripped by a Kavanaugh court, I demand you reject this nomination, Thomas said during the hearing.
The protesters were charged with disorderly conduct, according to a Capitol Police spokeswoman, who said that an update would be provided at the end of the day.
Democrats on the Senate panel also attempted to have Tuesdays hearing adjourned over documents related to Kavanaugh that they say they havent had sufficient time to review.
Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) ultimately denied the move to adjourn.
"Senators have had more than enough time ... to adequately assess Judge Kavanaugh's qualifications," he said.
Take them all to Gitmo, wrapped in heavy chains.
>> Community organizers agitators, similar to union thugs, cant be tolerated as part of our governing processes. They will disrupt them so the government as we know it cant function.
FTFY
These people would not have been admitted to a hearing in a county courthouse just about anywhere else in the United States. What were they doing in a meeting of a US Senate committee?
Somebody let them in, knowing the chaos that would ensue.
How is this Muslim allowed any say on women or “women’s issues” at all? She is on record promoting FGM and threatening FGM for those whom she hates.
She’s a terrorist.
You need to catch up on current events and the position that Trump has stated of all that has been happening because Sessions is acting as he is.
Huber would not exist unless Sessions was in place, and any attempt to pull all of this back into DC as many subversively do is to put it on hold or strangle it in the crib
There are over 50,000 indictments through the efforts of Huber who works for Sessions, and some here seem to support a few “high level perp walks” and let the rest go free
We see what you are really about, by your words shall you be known
This is Global, not a local nothing to see here, and it is leading right up to Obama and all of his minions

I keep hearing about enormous numbers of indictments.
Where are the arrests and trials?
It is time for the next steps.
“They were not protesters...They were disrupters!”
Difference being?
All in good time, do not want to scare the fish out of the net.
We are not talking about a recent plan that they put into action, it is Global in nature and scope and I say be patient, there are no intermediate steps in this plan. Note all of the changes underway in high places, do you have any idea of the numbers of politicians and company leaders who have suddenly quit their positions. The Executive order that takes not only them but all they own if involved in Pedophilia is in effect
The first to leave, Eric Schmidt of Google and thousands more
I am all in, and patience will be rewarded with long term results
DEMONRATS protesting for the right to murder their own children, their own flesh and blood. This is a sick, sick society.
Q is the biggest BS
Anyone know exactly What happens to these creeps?
They go before a sympathetic judge who dismisses all charges?
Did code pink show up?
Seems these demented groups woke up from an eight year liberation.
Funny that
One can protest silently by being present, wearing a color or button, or holding a sign, etc..
As it has now been discussed, this was a coordinated effort including democrat committee members to try to upset, delay, stop the hearing.
That is the difference.
Yeah...49,000 drug cases and the remainder blank ones ready to fill in the names of the top 1,000 Trump supporters. What was Sessions' former nickname...Silent Ass?
Oh yeah, the code pink crazies were there, they specialize in hearings.
leftsis hate Due Process
Lets see how far their criminality extends itself
We keep hearing that we should be patient and wait, while nothing happens.
It is looking more like Sessions is what he appears to be - namely part of that "insurance policy" taken out by the Deep State people in order to stop Trump from displacing them.
I will be very pleasantly surprised if I am wrong in that assessment.
It is time for the next step if there is going to be one. "Shortly after the mid-terms" is the last period where anything effective can still happen.
The left is so filled with hate, it’s sad.
“I demand.”
Who are you, precisely, Shaunna to demand anything?
