Protesters object to Kavanaugh confirmation outside Supreme Court

 

Protesters gathered in front of the Supreme Court to show their opposition to the confirmation of controversial justice Brett Kavanaugh. A few weeks prior to his confirmation, Kavanaugh was accused of sexually assaulting multiple women. The primary accuser, Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, testified that Kavanaugh assaulted her while they were both students at Georgetown Prep in North Bethesda.

Similar controversy surrounded the nomination of Justice Clarence Thomas in 1991 when Anita Hill accused him of sexually assaulting her. Both Kavanaugh and Thomas were confirmed despite these allegations.
