I was in the Senate gallery this afternoon when Justice Brett Kavanaugh was confirmed. You would have thought I was at an exorcism in an insane asylum.
Perhaps you were watching on television and heard the disruptions, though you certainly didn’t see them. The attenuated audio probably didn’t catch the frightening, incoherent shrieking – including the lingering screaming and howling as they were being dragged down the hallways outside the gallery.
...
The first example came when Senator Cornyn rightfully railed against the mobs who spent the last three weeks assaulting and assailing Kavanaugh supporters.
“Mob rule is necessary,” one shrieking woman shouted before security personnel could settle her down.
At least she was honest. It did not appear that Capitol Police removed her for her crime, unfortunately. That would soon change.
Another crazed woman later screamed, “I will not consent, I will not consent, I will not consent, I will not consent." She was like a feminist automaton: “I will not consent, I will not consent.” Capitol Police were less forgiving and dragged her out the doors and down the hallway.
I have visited hospitals for the seriously mentally ill, and the shrieks from this woman were as odd and unearthly as anything I ever heard inside a mental hospital. They echoed off the halls and ceilings outside the gallery in decreasing but astonishing amplitude.
Then the roll was called, and it sounded like the gates of hell opened up.
Nearly a dozen women erupted in unison, shouting, howling, screaming, in an unrecognizable venomous wail. They wouldn’t stop. There was fury, rage, hate, poison in the noise.
It wasn't prose. It wasn't song. It was a swarming, shrill, swirling noise.

Pence should have had the GOP congressional baseball pitchers on the floor. They’d have had the gallery out in no time.
Revenge is a beautiful thing,
The fat lady is singing her song.
Heads of conspiracy will roll,
it shouldn't be very long.
Feinstein started the roll,
Ford was her pair of dice.
Schumer was in on the plan,
the end won't be very nice.
Call in the hounds of hell,
Give them the scent of breath,
of the words spoken that knell,
the sight of their political death.

“Love liberals. They’re always entertaining........”
Wrong venue for “entertaining”.
There was a time the Democrats vociferously objected to such freak shows as they impugned the dignity of freaks.
This howling mob should be a part of Republican campaign ads.
As I always say the 2nd worse suffering in hell besides the fiery heat is the insanity will be unbearable to the extreme. Stupidity’s warm climate paradise.
From the article:
“Senator Dick Durbin said a few weeks ago in response to the committee that these were the sounds of democracy.
No they weren’t. They were the sounds of a group of people tinkering with madness. They were the sounds of irrational, unhinged, and unmoored lunatics. These were the people who opposed Kavanaugh’s nomination. They were an embarrassment to themselves.”
“”What’s the appropriate period? A month? The rest of the session?””
Forever!!!
Soros doesn’t pick them for their intelligence. Their pay is based on how well they screech! Please - don’t anyone ask them a question. You’ll embarrass them!
“”the right to free speech doen not include yelling fire in a crowded theatre ....... nor yelling any thing in the senate gallery during proceedings””
If they are arrested, they need to be held for trial. Freedom of Speech isn’t SCREAMING in a meeting. SCREAMING isn’t saying anything. SCREAMING is SCREAMING and we can get two year olds who could do that.
“”Michelle Malkin is calling for an investigation of which Senators provided passes for the disruptors. And, boy, is she ever pissed!!””
Super...this just can’t be allowed to end because the confirmation vote was taken. It needs to be investigated and penalties handed out...
They think Sol Alinsky wrote the constitution.
And some women wonder why it took a century for American women to get to vote!
Oh, I’m OK with forever for the guests who act up.
What I was asking, is what sort of plausible penalty—suspension of guest privileges—is appropriate for the Senators. I could even see something passing, but it won’t be “forever.”
As well there should be. The disruption went far beyond a peaceable assembly to petition their representatives for the redress of grievances. It went even beyond the illegal actions, misdemeanors in themselves, which marked the protests. This was a deliberate attempt to block and prevent the functioning of a part of our legitimate Government. In other words, Sedition, a high felony. And any attempt to preplan and facilitate such a felony is criminal conspiracy. Criminal Conspiracy to commit Sedition would meet the legal definition of sedition itself. An investigation into the relationship between the Congressmen and women, into the coordination of the actions of the protesters and/or any foreknowledge by the politicians of the protesters plans and intentions is definitely called for.
Disruption from the Gallery should require at a minimum a double tazing.
“”And some women wonder why it took a century for American women to get to vote!””
Not me and I’m a woman.. I don’t think we should have gotten the right to vote. I have never had anything against men or in particular old, white men! Men were (are) men and women were (are) women and what more was necessary? People who couldn’t get a job without special consideration and someone going to bat for them? Possibly. How many of us completed our educations - either high school or college - and then looked around for someone to clear the path for us? We applied for jobs and if we didn’t get them, we moved on. I right now can’t remember NOT getting any job I applied for but if I had, I wouldn’t have looked for someone else to blame for it.
Being a woman isn’t automatically some divine right of passage. It’s not anything that we did ourselves. We will now be a minority and ostracized because we carried on with our lives and our jobs (careers) without asking that anything be GIVEN to us because we were females. It wouldn’t have dawned on us that we were OWED anything. Apply for a job, get hired and do your job. Where on earth did that go off track? I know - I saw it in the sixties - on my way to and from work in Sacramento.
BTW, I’ve had both female and male bosses. Ask me which I preferred and admired and liked the best...
Very well said.....
“I don’t think we should have gotten the right to vote.”
A woman here, too, and I agree with you. The feeeeelings of women are dangerous in the polling place. Give me brains and logic when it comes to making decisions.
It’s obvious. Same behavior as when Trump was elected.
They don’t know how to live in a government which elects its’ repreentatives.
