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."

This fascist is proud of the lies he fabricated. Be proud to be Hitler’s disciple. He should be imprisoned for his actions.

I have despised Colbert for years. His nightly ridicule of almost half of the country was what got him his present gig. Interesting this creep uses the word “we”. It’s time for everyone who is not with these bastards to realize they have declared war on us.

One way or another what goes around comes around. Karma is inevitable.

They DID NOT "ruin" Brett Kavanaugh's life. He went through a trial by fire, against a savage enemy and triumph, I would say that's a character-builder.

Limbaugh always says a conservative is just a liberal who got mugged.

Brett Kavanaugh was not a conservative before, but I bet he is now

IF it was truly a “Sarcastic” comment as the the dumb RAT claimed, she would never have deleted it.

Don’t worry. he’ll have his revenge over the next 30 years.
Just like Justice Thomas.

Living well (and long) is the best revenge.

At some point, a majority of Americans will come to realize that the only way to stop these subversive commie bastards is to remove them from the realm of the living.

Stephen Colbert is a bitter and vicious person. He probably has not much of a life and takes it out on others.
