Sen. Mazie Hirono (D-HI) told men to "shut up and step up" when it comes to Brett Kavanaugh's sexual assault accusation. Asked whether her being one of four women on the Senate Judiciary Committee impacts the Kavanaugh confirmation proceedings, Senator Hirono says, "I just want to say to the men of this country: Just shut up and step up. Do the right thing for a change."
"Not only do women like Dr. Ford, who bravely comes forward, need to be heard, but they need to be believed. They need to be believed," Hirono said. "We cannot continue the victimization and the smearing of someone like Dr. Ford."
"We have to create an environment where women can come forward and be heard and be listened to. I want to thank Dr. Ford. I commend her courage. I believe her," the Senator said.
Hirono told the media that she would "expect the members of the press" to "talk about how unfair" Kavanaugh's accuser is being treated at a press conference Tuesday evening.
"I expect that from you guys," she said to the press.

Yeah, I am not listening to her.
As a man, I am not allowed to have an opinion. Got it.
Put her on ignore.
I'm trying to imagine what kind of hell would be raised if the sexes were reversed.

RUSH: Okay, folks. I want to share some things with you that may be fake news, but if they’re not fake, I want to be on record as having had them for you. There’s a Twitter thread out there. I have no idea the veracity because, as you know, I do not “twit.” But this particular thread claims that the reason that Dianne Feinstein was reluctant to go public with Christine Blasey Ford’s letter is because she received a similar letter from the woman about Judge Gorsuch. No idea whether this is fake news or true.
But given who we’re talking about here, I can believe that it would be true, ‘cause I think we’re dealing with genuinely disturbed, emotionally depraved, poisoned-with-hatred lunatics. I have no idea if it’s true. There’s another bit of news going around that has a little bit more credibility but still it doesn’t pass the “definitely happened” test. It is that Peter Strzok Smirk and Lisa Page were caught destroying evidence on their final days at the FBI. Neither two bits of news can be confirmed. But let me tell you something.
The New York Times and the Washington Post and USA Today and all the rest of them are publishing fake news and lies every damn day without one bit of concern whether they’re true or not, and half of them they didn’t even bother to correct. And it’s not something normally that I get into. But these two things have the tinge of believability to them, and I just want to get them out there in case it eventuates that they’re actually true. I can’t confirm either one.
But you know, I’m sick and tired of being hampered here. These people get to lie and distort and do whatever they want under the banner of premier journalism each and every day, making up sources, making up quotes, writing such things as, “President Trump, without evidence, today claimed” blah, blah. But they never say, “Christine Blasey Ford, without evidence, claimed today that Brett Kavanaugh pinned her down in a high school room in a house and so forth 42 years ago when they both were...” Who knows.

Want to know mor
Oh great, this hard-wired idiot is in a position of power and influence over citizens’ lives.
Cantwell apparently passed the “dumbest person in the senate” baton to Hirono.
Hirono should just say: “Unless Kavanaugh has cell phone video (from every day of the year in which this contact may have happened) proving that this sweet, innocent victim is lying, men need to shut up. If Kavanaugh does not admit and then prove that something happened and that he had signed, informed consent before any contact occurred, Judge Kavanaugh belongs behind bars.”

Many constituents only care aboutique the party of who they vote for.
“Oh great, this hard-wired idiot is in a position of power and influence over citizens’ lives.”
This is yet another reason the Constitution is a LIMITING document, to prevent nutjobs like her from tyrannizing the people.
It’s follow the Constitution or nothing. We tried the ‘middle ground’ and it does not work.
“how this moron ever became a US Senator is beyond me.”
Wow, it’s hard to believe a Democrat would tell everyone to shut up. (deadpan face)
Yamamoto is justified by this Senator.......she is destrouing America
Kavanaugh is cooked. There is an anonymous second woman who claims that he fondled her breasts and even occasionally bit them every day for months.
what?
Tomes could be written about that, as the line is quite long and as well distinguished. Maxine Waters, Babs Pelosi, Harry Reid, Cory Booker, Chuck Schumer, Every member of the Cuomo family, Cynthia McKinney, Frederica Wilson, Hank Johnson, Louie Gohmert, Barbara Boxer, Diane Feinstein, Sheila Jackson Lee, Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, et cetera, et cetera...
Who made her dictator?
