Dozens of Kavanaugh protesters arrested after occupying Republican lawmakers' offices

Protesters have ramped up efforts to stop Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh's nomination in recent weeks after Christine Blasey Ford accused the judge of sexually assaulting her three decades ago — an allegation Kavanaugh has vehemently denied.

Dozens of demonstrators were arrested on Capitol Hill Thursday after taking over the offices of Republican Sens. Chuck Grassley, Sen. Bob Corker, Susan Collins, Jeff Flake, among others, to once again call on lawmakers to reject Kavanaugh's nomination to the nation's highest court.

A crowd of protesters crammed into Grassley's office for most of the day — even ordering in lunch. The majority were from various women's rights groups, sharing personal stories of sexual assault in the Senate Judiciary Committee chairman's front room.

The left did the same thing to Roy Moore and it worked. Make accusations by left-wing women of something that supposedly happened over 35 years ago even if no Clinton-Weinstein style sexual contact was involved.

But don’t let the attacks come to soon - wait until the last minute. Or in Roy Moore’s case, not while he was running against Luther Strange.

I bet that what I’m thinking is worse than what you’re thinking. Times like these call for a very twisted, sadistic mind.

If Trump does not...take back our schools...

Re K-12, more federal involvement is a tricky proposition.

Most recently it was Wilson, then FDR, then Carter, then Clinton, then Obama. It seems easy to argue we are trending toward the extreme. Imagine a Hillary or Obama II sitting in the oval office deciding, or allowing her ilk to decide what is to be taught.

What are your thoughts on what Trump could/should do?

It’s not over yet. The next few weeks will consist of relentless attacks on this man. The f*ckheads never give up. They don’t care if they destroy him.

The colonoscopy called the “committee hearing” was a walk in the park compared to what they are going to do to him in the next few weeks.

The left has no principles and no conscience, so anything is possible. They want him to drop out, which will make it impossible to confirm anyone before Nov 6.

I went to a college where the ratio of males to females was over a thousand to one. We had our pick of the thousands of young men there and I had no shortage of interested ones- but frankly there was little time to date anyone because the school catered to aspiring engineers, meteorologists, and the like. There was no liberal arts program.

In spite of that male to female ratio and at least 3 of the girls on campus being attractive Americans and wearing short shorts which were in style then... and a couple Kuwaiti girls who kept to themselves and were also attractive- there was no sexual harassment. There was a noticeable military component with the ROTC crowd and they were always the most polite. In spite of a few classes being night classes, hundreds of foreign students - mostly Saudi, Iranian and Kuwaiti muslims, some Israelis, a Brit or two, and no obvious signs of security, there was no fear of accusations from women, no feminist activists, and this was well before there was anything like a PC culture - there were no rapes, not even any creepy incidents.

Which makes me wonder why these feminazi women get harassed and molested so much in schools where the sexes are 50/50 when there was none in mine? Is it lack of real competition for females because females are readily available and not picky, is it that lying feminists just make this crap up to get the coveted victim status, or are liberal males just naturally big gross dirtballs?

Every passing year it gets worse and worse. This is such a ridiculous issue, too.

I’ve no idea, maybe all of the above plus the fact many have no morals and have a hard time separating right from wrong.

I have a hunch it goes back to the family unit and how one was raised.

Give grassroots ed activists an ear-he was only hearing about Choice Charter schools.
The armies are being formed in the school system. It is a big big deal...

Agree we need Fed out of Ed but mostly we need to reconsider the entire educational system in a new and fresh way...
I’m talking about an entire rethinking from scratch- State budgets for ed dominate and all we get are communist angry social justice warriors. It’s gotta stop...
Perhaps tax breaks for single income families that are educating their own kids

I’m a woman and I agree with you.

Not only are these lying skanks hurting men, they are also hurting genuine survivors of sexual assault.
