Sen. Mazie Hirono asked Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett whether she has been the perpetrator of any sexual misconduct, a question Hirono said she asks all nominees.
I ask each nominee these two questions, and I will ask them of you. Since you became a legal adult, have you ever made unwanted requests for sexual favors or committed any verbal or physical harassment or assault of a sexual nature? the Hawaii Democrat asked during the hearing on Tuesday.
Hirono also used her time on Tuesday to criticize Barrett over her use of the phrase sexual preference instead of sexual orientation earlier in the day when the matter of same-sex marriage was being discussed.
Not once, but twice, you used the term sexual preference to describe those in the LGBTQ community, Hirono said. And let me make clear, sexual preference is an offensive and outdated term. It is used by anti-LGBTQ activists to suggest that sexual orientation is a choice. It is not. Sexual orientation is a key part of a persons identity.

“No Ma’am. Unlike you, I have never needed to beg for attention or affection. I feel your pain, though!”
Perfect description of the democrats and media in power today.
Graham should have kicked her off.
“No Senator, but I understand there’s no man alive who would want to have sex with you, due to your extreme B*TT UGLINESS.
Perhaps then it is YOU who is more likely to sexually assault someone-—cause you ain’t gettin’ anything otherwise!!”
The question is shocking and it's hard to imagine any man wanting to walk into that trap given how the Left will produce someone out there, an ex, acquaintance, etc., who will claim they were attacked.
Hirono is distilled stupid - 180 proof.
Why do they ask such stupid, irrelevant questions?
.... Sounds like a setup for the Opposition to release some kind of a line up of witnesses that will accuse ACB of "Unwanted Requests For Sexual Favors" ... That will require separate hearings .....
The question was asked because they have a dem operative willing to be like the gal in Kavanaugh’s hearing to make a charge buttressed by other Dem operatives.
That Question was meant for Biden/ Harris
Go to hell, you virtue signaling, migrant little tiki totem. Find a volcano and jump in it. Better yet, go back to Fukushima where you came from and tan your ass on a leaking reactor core. Now STFU, GTFO, and ESAD.
I haven’t seen the entire hearing days; and when I first saw this thread, I thought it must be ‘Babylon Bee’, or something similar.
Did Hirono really ask this?
If so, she must be mentally impaired.
Setting the stage to have a last minute person show up claiming she did
If they even try this on Amy they are DONE, she is a mother of 7 a devout Catholic I DOUBLE DARE THEM!!
The stupidest person ever to ask a question in the history of the Capitol building. That includes all the visitors.
Hirono is in need of help.
i get the feeling that Josh Hawley will “revisit” this question tomorrow....
Judge Barret should’ve gave a short response: “No, have you?”
But that’s just a testament to her class and self-restraint!
My answer would have been, “No, have you?” Where the hell did Hirono’s question come from? Was it a sleazy effort to suggest that accusations of that type against Barrett are actually circulating?
They have had no problems bringing up BS against every GOP nominee since BORK. Just because shes a woman should not presume they wont against her.
They know she puts the court in a more constitutional role, than it has been in several generations.. they know it, so dont think for one minute they wont try something just because shes a woman.
