Stephen Colbert 'Late Show' writer: 'I'm just glad we ruined Brett Kavanaugh's life'
Fox News ^ | 07 October 2018 | Gregg Re

Posted on 10/07/2018 2:04:57 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

In a social media post on Saturday, a writer for CBS's "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" seemingly celebrated the damage done to Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh's reputation during his bruising and bitterly partisan confirmation battle.

"Whatever happens, I'm just glad we ruined Brett Kavanaugh's life," the writer, Ariel Dumas, posted on Twitter. Dumas later briefly made her account private, preventing others from viewing her posts without her approval.

Her tweet came as the Senate confirmed Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court by a 50-48 vote, with Republicans saying that the several allegations of decades-old sexual misconduct brought against him simply lacked sufficient corroboration and credibility.

Dumas apologized on Sunday, claiming she was being "sarcastic" because Kavanaugh's elevation to the Supreme Court demonstrated that his life had not, in fact, been entirely derailed by the accusations as some Republicans had claimed.

"Whatever happens, I'm just glad we ruined Brett Kavanaugh's life."

— "The Late Show" writer Ariel Dumas (deleted tweet) "The last couple of weeks have been hard for the country and for me personally," Dumas wrote. "The complexity of frustration, anger and sadness can’t be accurately conveyed on twitter, and I regret my tone-deaf attempt at sarcasm in the wake of it."

They’ll be okay. All of his friends and colleagues stood by him and supported him.
That’s the main thing with anyone, right?
Who cares what a bunch of perverted drug addled ghouls in Hollywood think.

I’d say boycott the advertisers of the network but too many conservatives say “oh no, don’t do economic boycotts!”

The culture hates them and craps on their shoes and spits on their religion and they still handover money.

I don't even want to ruin Stephen Colbert's life.

Once you're free of that hateful burden, life is lighter and more fun.

Kavanaugh has a little daughter who wants to pray for her enemies - that's a priceless reward.

Very sad that such demented people get to work on a major TV network.

Insufferable garbage like her work in all corners of the entertainment industry.

The jerk writer has a ruined soul. All they did was put a dent in Kavanaugh’s armor. Their rotten souls face eternal ruination yet they are blind or refuse to see that reality.

Can these insane people get any more moronic? They’re running out of anti-Trump jokes so the next thing is to go after them and their families. Despicable people.

Let’s just see how much Republicans can “ruin” this TV punk’s life in November.

They aren’t even sure he is totally against them. He was a Trump appointee, and I am not sure which circles are truly anti patriot act these days. But the primary reason for being against Kavanaugh is that Trump cannot be allowed to succeed at anything. He and everyone around him have to fail.
