Sept. 28, 2018 Tweet - "I watched the brave Dr. Ford yesterday w tears in my eyes. The memories she recounted-- The loud music. The bed. Brett Kavanaugh--drunk, on top of her, covering her mouth.

Sept. 28, 2018 Tweet - "Yesterday's hearing doesn't have to be the final word. There is no rush. We can have the FBI investigate. We can continue investigations. We can bring in additional witnesses.
