WATCH: Lindsey Graham Whines About Democrats ‘Ruining’ Brett Kavanaugh’s Life
In September of 2018, the Senate held hearings to discuss the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. During the process, a woman named Christine Blasey Ford testified about an interaction with Kavanaugh when they were teens. Despite her compelling testimony and thousands of tips, the FBI rushed their investigation, and Kavanaugh was rapidly confirmed.
Over the last month, the Senate held hearings over the nomination of Ketanji Brown Jackson. While many GOP lawmakers embarrassed themselves during the probe, there was little they could do to stop her confirmation. While whining about the process today, he claimed that Democrats had destroyed Kavanaugh’s life.
“This hearing is coming to an end,” the South Carolina Senator said. “If you compare this to Kavanaugh, you’ve missed a lot. I’ve never complained about Kavanaugh or anybody else being asked a hard question. I have complained about their lives being destroyed by a coordinated effort of Democrats and the mainstream media of trying to destroy somebody to keep a seat open.”
Graham continued by slamming Joe Biden’s first nominee. “My decision is based upon her record of judicial activism,” he claimed, “flawed sentencing methodology regarding child pornography cases and a belief Judge Jackson will not be deterred by the plain meaning of the law when it comes to liberal causes.”
