Brett Kavanaugh Vote Will Drive Political Backlash If Historical past Is Information | Rachel Maddow | MSNBC

He looks as if Kevin spacey's character in House of Cards had a real life political past O.o
Ford is a disgrace to REAL victims who can remember what the weather was like, distinctive smells, visuals etc no collaboration. No proof. PTSD but yet she managed to get a PhD in psychology, get married, travel ( fear of flying huh ) what a disgrace to REAL victims. Where's our million dollars?
TRUMP wins in landslide
One more reason to vote Democrat.
Al Dixon was clearly strange politician who made a personal promise and then kept it at cost to himself.
I can believe she wasted all that time telling a story when she could of just said if you dare to put this man on the Supreme Court because he “allegedly” sexually assaulted a woman who has no evidence and is reporting the crime 35 years later you will be subject to political suicide – never watching this show again

As ALWAYS, thank you for the history lesson. Much love to you and your passion for TRUTH !
Joe Biden voting for Clarence Thomas after listening to Anita Hill…..is the reason I won't vote for Joe Biden next November. First time I will choose not to vote for a President since 1960.
Just reading this in 2020, saddened by the worst news one can get, trying to think of anything but that….I decided to listen to my feed and here she reads a story about a powerful woman, women standing up for each other, justice led by a ring in the nose and the story stopped and my pain returned. I cried then, and now…..covid has hit home.
Find those 20/20 hindsight glasses you lost and answer a few questions… (1) if America and Democracy didn't take over Russia…. (2) Who is writing the script our governments leaders are acting out ? (3) Is THEY enough ?

What excuse did Joe Biden use to excuse his vote for Clarence Thomas? He lost my vote back then.
Rachel is a genius and she sure can spin a tale to make it interesting what a mind
Action and Reaction goes hand in hand is similar to what goes around, comes around.
The way people act when they are in power, is a reflection of how they should acted upon when they are not.
Forget that now. The GOP welcomes people of ill repute with open arms
There’s also some history about Dixon’s senate seat.
1998: Republicans gained Dixon’s senate seat.
2004: Democrats gained the seat.
2010: Republicans gained the seat.
2016: Democrats gained the seat.
2022: The constant change with the seat appears (as of August 2021) to be at an end. The race is seen as safe Democratic (again as of August 2021).
I would think that with 90% of the repetition in this report edited out, it would be about half as long. A strenuous watch and didn't even finish it.
The difference between then and now is the money. Collins, like the rest, bought her reelection. End of story!
It seems like sexual improprieties have become a prerequisite for a seat on the U.S. Supreme court.
The supreme court, the presidency, the Senate, and state governments Nationwide are now in the hands of power mad ideologues unconcerned about history and their ripping boot heel on its pages. If democracy lives, the Republican party is dead. If the Republican party lives, democracy is dead. So much for right wing "patriots".
When a political system loses the respect and support of its people, we have a name for it: the fall of a civilization.
Peace,
It’s so funny that they talk about every one but Trump, He has got away with it, Maybe it helps to be a Republican
It's Rizzo.
No matter who the Democrats would’ve been able to recruit a Democrat who would claim that long long ago she was attacked by the candidate with no witnesses. She said/he said. Fortunately, like the boy who cried Wolf , particularly evil scheme of the Democrats has lost its power.
Brett is has a disgusting record, the evidence was never heard but all that is ok w Republican who don’t care much about women’s rights. Perhaps Republicans would like to see only men voting again!
Are you going to tell us about the other 51 yes votes?
Ah, the misery of vows rashly made . . .
They lost the Senate because of it.
Trump couldn't get to the Supreme Court fast enough, but his nominees, including Brett, consistently voted against him when the law required it. The Chief (another Republican nominee) had previously warned Trump that having "mates" in the Court would not affect their independence. Sessions as A-G had taken the same approach, that he wasn't Trump's stooge. So why do you want to get rid of Brett? He is on your side. When SCOTUS is seen as no more than part of the political system, when each change in politics means simply enlarging SCOTUS to install one's own friends, as has been suggested, Biden is wanting exactly what Trump wanted, partisan siupport from the judiciary. Another nail in the coffin of American democracy — as if there aren't too many nails there already.
You promotes lies to the Americans
USSC Justice Brett Kavanaugh should join Samuel Chase in being impeached from the high bench.

I am so sorry Kavanaugh got in..he will be there for years along with the rest of them.
I have never heard of him so what difference does it make????
Supreme Court is corrupt, Brent Kavenaugh is sitting on the bench because of a mistake over drinking a beer & possibly smoking marijuana. Oh & Sexual Harassment.
I remember Mosley Brown stickers on the ground during a school field trip my Senior year in high school. What a cool story Rachel.
Republicans had to break multiple laws to get Kavy "I like beer" on the bench.
Susan Collins needs to be voted out! This is her fault!
Impeach him……
(FF to September 2021)
Texas has made abortion illegal. It might not stand, but it exposes certain Supreme Court Justices for what they are.
The American Taliban.
Makeup and blazer looking good Rachel! Absolutely love your amazing journalism! Great story. You teach us so much. Thank you 🙏
Thank you for the history lesson. This story is STILL relevant in 2021.
Americans must dump Republicans in 2022 and 2024 to protect democracy and individual liberty and equal rights under law for all, especially for women … for your mothers and wives and sisters and daughters and those that love them.
Women all over the country need to dump Republicans (even if they do not say so in public) to protect the right of women to make some of the most personal and consequential decisions they will ever face.
Americans, especially the youth of America, need to protect their own future in a nation of people governed by CONSENT of the governed by dumping Republicans who refuse to enact federal law to protect voter's rights and the security and integrity of elections.
History is a great teacher, thanks Rachel for your insightful research.
Women in the Australian parliament have been treated the same way by the men who rule by majority of bums on seats. If men cannot take the facts of bad behaviour by their colleagues then we will remove them through the electoral process and they can try to get a job in the general workforce. What a bunch of wankers. Well , if that floats their boat, then they can take their frustrations out on themselves and leave us alone.
Alan Dixon had no spine and did not do what was right, which was to deny anyone a seat on the Supreme Court to a sexual predator!
What kind of drugs is madcow on ?
Glad things have worked out so well for the nation with the Democrats help. Love the new Supreme Court justices!
