“The Devil’s Triangle is a drinking game”
“Okay, will you describe it to us?”
Right?? He said it was a quarters game lmao
i cant believe this show of all shows skipped over Boofing. or butt chugging.. talk about comedy gold
It's a Threesome. 2 guys and a girl
I'd pay money to see Kavanaugh make up a drinking game that fits the name "Devil's Triangle"
3 shot glasses placed in a triangle at one end of a table and quarters or ping pong balls used to try and shot them in to win. not real hard to explain some call it quarters some call it devils triangle. there ya go
"What do you mean by 'attractive'?"
-"Oh..."
Said a man who sometimes thinks he is wearing his glasses and isn't, and has to have his notes for his say in the hearing printed up in large print because he can't see small print! He was turning the pages of notes so fast , Chuck Grassley's hair was blowing in the wind!
She's attractive and therefore believable. If she were uglier, I wouldn't be so inclined to believe her testimony. His thought process, probably.
lawyers use the term "attractive" when selecting jury personal. man or woman can be an "attractive juror/witness" so its not really out of place in legal setting. even pleasing; use to describe how a witness did on the stand. terms like "I like" or "he's good" is implicit in personal bias. using 3rd person adj's is preferable. even though, it standsto be said he was not talking to other lawyers or peers when he said this.
@@digitalsaint2040 yeah, attractive alone would've been fine but 'pleasing' is pushing it
He may just be the next one on trial. Lol what a complete dick head. Lol
This feels like it happened 10 years ago.
Yeah... and you're not even in the corona pandemic / botched crisis mgmt era yet with that comment from your 6 months younger self... 😷🤯😷🤯😷🤯
Wish time machines exist?
@@H-to-O Yeah
Florian Adolf Oh, you sweet sweet 3 week old younger version of me... you have no idea how much worse things got. Truly another world, a better world, was the one 3 weeks ago.
Coming from May 2020, it’s been a fucking lifetime
It feels like Donald Trump has been President for decades. There's just so much _shit_ to talk about...
3 years later, and he has been thoroughly redeemed, he proved wrong everyone who doubted him, the ones who detracted him and all those who mischaracterized him. John Oliver should issue a formal apology.
I'm talking about Gritty, of course.
Had us in the first part
You had us in the first half I am not going to lie!
You are bad 😅

Well done!!
"We believe you, we just don't care". An American tradition passed downed for generation s
How funny is it that this is popping up in my recommendations now with Biden’s accusations of much worse. I wonder how last week tonight covers Tara Reide? And I’m a democrat :( so sad, very bad, not great
@@SAFbikes Less credible accusations.
teamSAF bmx I’m also curious how they’re going to speak on this. But I don’t really trust her accusations because of how much she’s lied in her life. So it makes it hard to know whether this is another lie or not
@@hanaomer4419 Could you specify what lies she's told previously?
spongeintheshoe she lied about receiving her bachelors degree at antioch university when she didn’t and then she got into law school based on that lie. Even her own autobiography is filled with some big embellishments. Seriously read up on her, even some of her friends had some concerning things to say about her. I’m not saying she lied about the assault because the things that happened are known only to them. But I’m also not ready to condemn him without any sort of evidence and without really knowing anything.
just to be clear "Did you ever have a blackout?" "I DON"T KNOW" is 'yes'
if you hadn't had one you'd know the answer was 'no'
and to ask the questioner if she ever had a blackout? Insolence!
Patricia O'Hare I mean it was Klobuchar
@@justsomeoneelse5942 Yeah, not that it weighs on the hearing itself but I'm pretty sure Klobuchar used to have some trouble with Alcoholism. Then again, alcoholism is pretty prevalent among politicians. Especially among politicians who have been in the game at a local level for a while, simply look at Iowa's Governor Kim Reynolds whose had several DUI's throughout her career
@@spacecadet9663 the "trouble" that Klobuchar had with alcohol is that her father was an alcoholic that destroyed their family and she never drank because of it.
Nice try though
I don't know but smirking asking a female senator if she ever gets black out during a rape inquiry feels a little rapey in itself lol
I found it very odd as well. It had tones of him hitting on her and at the same time finding another victim (or potentially victim blaming?)
Seriously. It is humiliating watching this 5 years later knowing he not only got the SC seat but still has it. A total embarrassment.
what makes it worse is the fact that amy klobuchar's father was an alcoholic
@@winonafrog
The US has really gone down the gutter
Unfortunately they all ignored the warning signs, and Roe v. Wade was overturned, with his vote. The Republican party is a scourge.
One of the most tragic aspects of John Oliver's Last Week Tonight pieces is the fact that it becomes increasingly relevant by each passing year.
It horrifying that Tootle Turtle senator Mitch McConnell told news reporters that he and the repugnants are going to ram this thing thru .....
True. Just rewatching it on the backdrop of the entire Justice Alito / Justice Thomas double shitshow unfolding... Things went pretty downhill from thereon out...
Well said. It's a little haunting.
"Hey Brett, what day is it?" Brett tears up, "It's August 26th. My dad once went to the store on August 26th and wrote it in his calendar and then told me about it one year later on Christmas."
“I was 43 that Christmas”

Theory: Kavanaugh is actually Calendar Man from the DCU
I love how done her lawyers were with the questions about the polygraph
they had her back.
I mean.. it's their job and why they got paid
"As is standard procedure" was such a slam dunk lmfao
@@andrewbledsoe131 They represented her pro bono. The male lawyer, Michael Bromwich, resigned from his law firm to do so.
@@alyxwarner2984 If you quote, quote correctly. He said ''as is routine''. But great nonetheless haha
It’s crazy how similar his testimony was to R. Kelly’s meltdown looking back years later. Funny how one was rightfully shat on and sent to jail while the other is a SC Justice now.
white male privilege
Whatever the reason could be, I am pretty sure it has definitely nothing to do with skin colour /s
(Looks left, right, left)
Hey wait a minute!
The accuser's story had a billion holes in it, and none of her own witnesses didn't corroborate it (some even openly contradicted it). He could've dropped his pants and shat on the judge's desk, and there would've been exactly the same amount of credibility in the case against him.
Sounds about white.
The entire time kavanaugh was on the stand, it felt like an snl skit
I believe SNL did a skit after this aired.
Patricia O'Hare I know it’s just scary how they didn’t even have to parody it, it was already so ridiculous
Yeah it absolutely feels like he not Matt Damon should have said " live from New York, its Saturday Nigh live".
I watched the snl version before I watched this, the studio audience makes it eerily similar to the performance
@@AdumbDriver I saw the snl skit first too and watching the actual version, I am applauding Matt Damon. He nailed it!
This episode is attractive, in other words pleasing.
Oh...
Hussam noooooo
still hilariouslysad
1000th like.
Jeri Johnston nobody cares
I really think he should have talked more about beer. I dont think he was clear enough.
TvTrollByIvy did he say he liked beer?
let's all thank Brett Kavanaugh for putting the PUB in Republican, but he doesn't belong on SCOTUS... I'd be honored if some fellow concerned citizens would check out my acoustic piano & vocal covers of 80s/90s classic songs on my channel. Covers include Sting, Prince, George Michael, Radiohead, Tom Petty, Phil Collins, the GooGoo Dolls, Sarah McClachlan, Billy Joel, Earth Wind & Fire, plus a couple of '010s classics from Bruno Mars and Coldplay. Live acoustic with no autotune. Thanks and peace.
the dude clearly said that he likes beer and that he's not a sexual predator.
Do you think he likes it and/or drinks it? I just couldn't tell
gentleman oni I couldn’t tell either. He either really likes it or really really likes it.
"As is routine."
That is the most subtle, perfect, truly savage thing to say in a courtroom, to someone questioning the validity of your _polygraph._
you've heard "i can't be racist, i've had black friends", not see "i couldn't have sexually assaulted a woman, i have female friends"
Especially since that one manages to make less sense.
@Football Tactics racism is more than just "i hate black people," its a series of internalized prejudices and beliefs that one must self check for, you can be personally nice to a few individual black people and still have negative biases toward black people as a whole
Football Tactics if someone, in their heart of hearts, believed that you as a person were inherently dumber, lazier, and more violent, based solely on how you look, would it matter if they were attacking you physically or not? Biases are important to self check for, and your last statement is kind of a blanket statement, not everyone who has implicit biases is going to be super cognizant of them or be open about them toward people of color they befriend.
Football Tactics If you think about it it’s not complicated because you don’t really need to think about it very much
I see liberals are still butthurt over the fact that this man will be making decisions on important matters for the next several decades lol
Rewatching this in June 2020. Forgot there was a studio audience.
What's a studio audience?
@@jamesiyer4937 you got me!
What's that noise in the background?
It sounds like white noise.....but with sporadic vocalizations and rhythmic pulses of hand noises.
It sounds so strange.
Does anyone know what it is?

Rest In Peace, RBG 😢
When you look at how _different_ this episode of John Oliver’s show was compared to his 2020 episodes in general, but *especially* the Supreme Court one he just put out, the contrast is just utterly staggering.
It’s like, yes, Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation was completely terrible, and a disgrace to the Senate as institution (as if they needed any more help with that at that point), but you can CLEARLY tell that as a society, we still had some glimmer of....I don’t know, hope? I’m not sure if hope is the right word though. It might be more accurate to say that we all knew we weren’t at rock bottom YET, and things weren’t yet as bad as they could be. We were headed that way, and it’s clear we both knew it, and felt a strong sense of urgency that it was imperative to stop the bleeding/devolution towards full on fascism.
You could see it in John’s eyes. But now? Now we know that there’s legitimately *no further down* we can go, without what’s left of our democracy completely collapsing, once and for all, like all democracies have done eventually. We also know that under this government, you and I *and every one of us* have no Constitutional rights assuming we’re deemed to be political enemies by the state (which, spoiler alert, if you watch John Oliver you 100% count, and as such will be treated like a treasonous domestic terrorist if you protest the government, the police, etc) Dissent is not permitted publicly, protests of any kind (EXCEPT for white supremacist, fascist, extreme Christian fundamentalist, and anti-Black Lives Matter protests-OH, and deranged anti-mask/conspiracy theory protests) are _violently crushed_ by militarized police no matter where you live, and in many cases, those police forces are actively, and unapologetically coordinating with _armed far right extremist militias,_ who have been fed/brainwashed with lies, conspiracy theories, and dangerous propaganda by Fox News (and much, MUCH worse) for YEARS, which has predictably and tragically led to the murders of unarmed peaceful protestors in the streets.
Not only THAT, which is _more than way too f#%king much already,_ we’ve also watched our entire economy collapse in a matter of MONTHS!
Not the stock market, because the US stock markets have become completely socialized (propped up by us, the taxpayers) and unable to fail, but the economy that affects the working class. We’ve watched jobs being lost, wages being slashed, and 60% of small businesses in America PERMANENTLY close, because of a virus. A pandemic that our government was both UNWILLING, and INCAPABLE, of protecting our people from, has proven to all that the US government is akin to a government of a failed state. Because America IS a failed state. No civilized, developed country, would allow people to suffer on a nationwide scale like this.
*And you can see it all like a living history book if you just scroll through John Oliver’s episodes over the last four years, but especially from 2019 to 2020.*
There’s only a microgram of hope we can latch onto at any given time, and things are horrific, yet we just have to _keep fighting_ anyway. It can always get worse, and we could all be dead.
Be strong, friends. That’s all we can do.
@@realzachfluke1 We have one more chance this November. If we don't save it, America is done.
Rewatching this after roe v wade was overturned makes me that much more sad. Thank god that john is so funny
Ford lied, i can tell, just by how she told the story, im used to hearing poeple lie and she sounded like someone who was told to embellish on a story
I cannot believe this is where we are in 2022
Shocking that one President who never won the popular vote, wound up stealing 3 seats and tearing rights away from women across the nation.
A couple of lines (including RBG) hit different now and it hurts
So true. My heart breaks for the backwards spiral the US is on.
"I hate to say it, but I'm starting to think that men might be too emotional for the supreme court." ICONIC.
@SuperCorrector1 I have absolutely no idea what this means. Are you using the "Ok, boomer" format for a "gestapist," whatever that is? I am legitimately confused.
@SuperCorrector1 Wait, wasn't the Gestapo the secret police of Nazi Germany? I definitely support Nazis as much as I support Trump, considering the fact that they are both racist and have/will lead to the death of hundreds, if not thousands. As for Kavanaugh, I would say allegedly assaulting Dr. Ford (and two other women) definitely isn't all that great. You know, I would have loved to hear a verdict from a jury or judge, but since there wasn't a full trial, I guess we'll just have to decide for ourselves to believe three people over one.
@SuperCorrector1 I have no idea what you're talking about. Dr. Ford's Statement: www.npr.org/2018/09/26/651941113/read-christine-blasey-fords-opening-statement-for-senate-hearing. She remembers it in great detail, including the names of Kavanaugh's friends at the time.
As to why sexual assault victims don't go to the police should be pretty f*cking obvious: no one believes them. How many people of power are currently in office despite many claims of inappropriate behaviour? This was a long time ago, where sexism - believe it or not - was worse than it is today. Even if she went to the cops, they would likely tell her not to press charges - then or now. You, yourself, don't believe her. Why would anyone else?
Also, google is free. Search it up yourself if you really want to know. I don't have to spend my time educating you when you probably don't even think women are equal to men. If you did, you would take the time to consider Kavanaugh, a man, is lying instead of multiple women.

If listening to facts makes me an Islamo-Marxist troskist, then so be it. I prefer to treat women as people, so I can see if you can't quite understand it.
@@bohrium1501 Amazing assumptions! The easiest way to identity a crazed leftist is usually their reaction if you disagree with them. A leftist will somehow decide you must me SOME kind of bigot or evil thing. Even over a he said she said thing like this. Innocent until PROVEN guilty doesnt exist anymore for a leftist. Which is concerning. If I were a woman could I accuse you of rape? Itll ruin your life, even if you're innocent, because of people like you. Just food for thought.
"As is routine," is like... the best shutdown/clap back I've ever seen. And like... it literally followed a statement that was already a great shutdown, in itself.
Delivered in the best deadpan "here, pass me the mic for a moment" way. Lawyers really know how to do this.
OrigamiMarie being friends with a lawyer is so awesome because you just see the way they just shut down conversations. They’re so good. I have never seen anyone with a greater ability to come up with a response/rebuttal than a lawyer
@@OrigamiMarie sounded more like in exasperation to me rather than deadpan.
It was the only response that was challenging Kavanaugh's serial lying.
@@OrigamiMarie He shoulda dropped the mic after that.
I will not tolerate this slander against an american hero

You had me scared there for a second.
Lol he's good man! Leave him alone! Haha

Matt Damon nailed his Kavanaugh impression on SNL so hard after this hearing, down to every single aggressive sniff.
I’m from a coastal community in RI and I’ll give you my expert opinion here: if he didn’t get in a fight on a boat in RI, he at least got in a fight on a boat in Connecticut
Whoever made that accusation did so to the Senate and is being investigated by the FBI for lying to Congress. That ought to be funny
If Kavaknob was in a fight, on a boat, on land or in the air, there was definitely a whole lot of bitch-slapping, biting and hair pulling involved.

The pause before “drinking game” was basically a confession right there...
When all you have is a story about an event that took place 30 years ago, it's no surprise you take to pseudo psychology to prove someone else is guilty.
You are so right about that
@@colzbroeffectboss4619 Let's be clear: as far as the "Devil's Triangle" thing, no reasonable person cares what Justice Kavanaugh got up to in his personal time 30 years ago -- indeed, we shouldn't care if he were still having Devil's Triangles every week to this day. Sex is not unethical, and while the media would surely make a whole scandal of it, it really wouldn't matter. No one should be mortified at the thought that he might have had a threesome in high school.
The problem comes from the fact that he tried to fib about it. We now have a Supreme Court Justice who is willing to deliver false testimony under oath, and *that* is disgraceful.
@@FatedHandJonathon But now you've shifted the goalpost. The whole "Devil's Triangle" was not, by anyone, presented as a harmless orgy between consenting adults. We were sold some narrative that it's some sick gang rape ritual, to which, of course, Kavanagh denied partaking in. Of course, no reasonable person would care about Kavanagh's sex life, but people obviously cared to know whether or not he was a rapist or partook in gang rape, which is why he was asked about the "Devil's Triangle" thing.
@@colzbroeffectboss4619 Then he should have said that instead of committing perjury. I'm not weighing in on the rape question here. I am discussing the very real crime he committed in front of Congress. We have a Justice with so little respect for the sanctity of a court of law that he is willing to lie under oath in order to save face.
The Devil's Triangle is not a drinking game. Justice Kavanaugh knows it is not a drinking game. And yet he wilfully testified that it was one, because the alternative might make him look bad. That is inexcusable, and as a trained and appointed judge, he knew it was inexcusable.
Politicians can tell little white lies. Judges testifying in court absolutely cannot.
When he said 'Devil's Triangle' is a drinking game, the Senator should have asked him how it's played...
Carolyn's RV Life He did. Brett said it had three cups and was like "quarters".
Maybe you should have watched the hearing yourself instead of being told what to think by a third-party, then you'd know he was asked and as he started answering Senator Whitehouse told him to stop.
Saiyan MGTOW P funniest part of the whole hearing quarters my ass
do more
Provided the FBI isn't hog-tied by the Trump Admin., they should interview Brett's graduating class to see if, what everybody and their grandma called "quarters" back in the '80s, was called "Devil's Triangle" at their school.
The sad thing is not just that this is now a Supreme Court justice, but that this Man has been a judge for decades! Terrifying!
She could have come forward decades ago and he may have not become a judge. But she chose to keep quiet for 40 years…

@@einsame_Maria Assault, you mean. Sexual assault.
@@totallynameless8861 yes, I meant assault, of course
Astro Wolvez How do you feel about Tara Reade and Joe Biden?
Einsame M Yes, since this wasn’t a trial, it doesn’t matter if it’s “fair.” It was a hearing to just hear testimony, not to make a clear judgement.
I'm re-watching this in June 2021 and it's still stunning. He was belligerent, so freaking weird and entitled. The fact that he brought a calendar from 1982 to refute Ms. Ford's claim is so unbelievably insane. Like who keeps calendars for more than 30years? Where does he keep them? How many calendars does he have?
yeah, this one was truly wild. also, tf does he supposedly write on the calendars? personally my calendar has doctor’s appointments, meetings with friends, and work schedules on it. don’t tend to write “party where i didn’t sexually assault *specific individual*”
Watching this is Jan 2022 and its insane to comprehend this man is on the SC. Even if he was innocent, his entire demeanor is bizarre. Judges expect you to maintain demeanor when you are in their court. Agreed that you might be upset if wrongfully accused of something, but in their court you would not be allowed to behave this way. Blows my mind.
" Like who keeps calendars for more than 30years?
The kinda people who end up on the Supreme Court.
But it's cute that you can actually declare someone is "entitled" when he's being falsely accused of horrific crimes. Here's hoping you never end up that entitled.....

I could apply for a job at McDonalds, screech and cry, and then scream "Do you have a drinking problem?!?" at the interviewer, and McDonalds would have every right to turn me away as unfit for the job. The fact that Kavanaugh is sitting on the Supreme Court is reprehensible!
A job interview in Washington dc can not ask about any accusations that did not result in conviction. You would be right to be pissed they illegally accused you of bring a drunk gang rappist
Jason Bolding the comment had no reference to his indignance. The comment took issue with the socially unacceptable act of dodging a question in a congressional hearing by asking whether the person asking the question had a drinking problem. They then went on to show that on a small, low stakes job, his behavior classifies him as unfit, much less a job at the highest court in the country, a very high stakes job that impacts the lives of Americans across the country (overturning legislation, determining the rights of American citizens, etc.). What legitimate issue do you have with this?
@@mcswashbuckler3833 no they didn't, McDonalds can't ask how much you drink due to ADA, this job interview argument fails on every level
Jason Bolding the point was that the sort of behavior that is unacceptable in the setting of a low stakes job should not be acceptable in a high stakes job
@@mcswashbuckler3833: I'm pretty sure jason bolding is special needs....he lacks the capacity to understand.

If someone says you raped them and didn't give any evidence and yet people believe you are a horrible rapist based on the vague recollections of a woman who should have come out years before but didn't, how would you feel.
@@naturallyartificial4090 no.
Caleb Conway false allegations are so rare they should (almost) never Be given time to change opinions on rape allegations also I doesn’t matter a Supreme Court Justice should be calmer regardless
@@ryanjapan3113 False rape allegations are rare, yeah, because contrary to the paranoid fantasies of Right-wingers, there aren't millions of women sitting out there plotting how to frame innocent men for money and attention. Which makes sense, really, because being a rape accuser, especially in a high-profile case, tends to mean not easy money, but having your life destroyed as you have to go through the courts while being dragged through the mud and getting death and rape threats from Alt Reichists. Plus, let's say, for the sake of argument, that Kavanaugh is innocent of rape. Great. That means that all we have is a partisan conspiracy theorist perjurer on the Supreme Court.
"Yes we drank beer, my friends and I, boys and girls. Yes, we drank beer.

"Not the tone of a man who hopes to one day have the honor of one day serving on the supreme court, but the tone of someone who feels ENTITLED to be on it."
And that was my takeaway from the whole Kavanaugh debacle. Its why I had to wait a full 6 months to watch this episode because the man infuriates me so much. Even putting the allegations aside, he was NOT qualified for the position and only got it because he was young and conservative. If you recall, those were the only qualifications Trump was talking about before the nomination. "We want someone young, who's going to be there a long time." Or something to that effect.
I'm STILL pissed Kavanaugh got confirmed.
The only qualification to being the court is to be an American citizens. Not even an age litmit like the rest of the govt so fuck off. And even then so what only reason keagan was put on was because she was Obama’s SG and young and liberal.
Thomas Bedient After spending a couple of weeks being accused of being a gang rapist and having himself and his family receive death threats, he was pissed off. Wouldn’t you be? And if he hadn’t been, you would have said he was cold and emotionless. And by the way, if Ford had spoken in a perfectly calm voice, you would speak about how strong and confident she is. There’s always a way to spin a person’s demeanor the way you want it, which is why conservatives keep talking about the need for EVIDENCE, for fuck sake! You know, evidence? Like what we used to use to make important judgements before we started letting twitter mobs make decisions by who can scream the loudest.
Getting upset isn't proof of innocence, any more than anxiety is a sign of dishonesty. All hypotheticals aside (especially the ones about gender bias, power differentials, and whatever else we throw into the mixing bowl today), we have a credible accusation from a credible witness and we have a douchebag of an accused who seems more interested in playing the victim than addressing the accusations. If he wants to be taken seriously, he can start by acting like a judge.
Even if he's innocent, he's so mercurial that I wouldn't want him anywhere near the Supreme Court.
@V. V God had nothing to do with it. ;)
John Rabson Jr You’re right that the demeanors of Kavanaugh and Ford can’t tell us whose telling the truth or whether Kavanaugh committed sexual assault all those years ago. Which is why we should look at the evidence.
You say that there’s a crredible accusation by a credible witness. What’s your basis for saying her and her accusation are credible? My basis for saying it’s not credible include:
1) The suspicious timing of it. She didn’t accuse Kavanaugh for over 30 years, only for it to surface after his confirmation hearings but before the committee voted. This was calculated for maximum delay. If the Democrats could delay until the midterms, they believed that they could derail Kavanaugh’s nomination altogether.
2) The whole business with her fear of flying again seemed like a delay tactic. She supposedly has a fear of flying, so she has to drive across the country. “Fine,” the committee says, “we’ll come to you in California.” This offer receives no reply. But it turns out that she gets to the hearing by... flying. She just waits a few days before doing so. Then it turns out that she flies a lot. She flies for work. She flies across the Pacific Ocean to go on vacation on remote islands. She flew to Hawaii with a boyfriend. The boyfriend says that she went on a tour with him flying over mountains in a small plane (which most people with a fear of flying would find terrifying) and showed no sign of fear whatsoever.
The fear of flying story is a lie to delay Kavanaugh’s confirmation in the hopes that the Democrats could take the Senate and stop his confirmation altogether.
3) She can’t remember any details except the assault. She doesn’t know where it happened (except she said it was near a certain club which would put it several miles from her home), she doesn’t know when, she doesn’t know how she got to the party, she doesn’t know how she got home. But she’s sure that it happened and that she had 1 beer. If she knew how she got home, there would have to be witnesses who saw this extremely upset girl walking several miles by herself, or someone who drove her home who could testify about how upset she seemed. Nope.
4) Of the people who she said were at the party, none of them recalled such an incident. Some of them said they don’t recall being at a party with Brett Kavanaugh. Her close friend said that she never met Kavanaugh and Ford never told her about this incident, although she did say that she believes Ford.
5) If it was simply about Ford’s testimony, I wouldn’t find it credible for the reasons listed above. But the Democrats took anything and everything seriously if it meant sullying Kavanaugh’s reputation and of course delaying the proceedings. Julie Swetnick had ridiculous stories about gang rapes. They brought out yearbooks and dissected what Kavanaugh wrote. There was discussion about what the phrases in the yearbook meant and whether he was lying about them. And of course, his demeanor during his testimony was seen as proof of his guilt. I mean, how dare he be angry after being repeatedly accused of gang rape in a proceeding that seemed to be calculated for political putposes?
6) You will notice that I’ve never said that Kavanaugh is innocent. How would I know? I wasn’t there. But many many people have stated that he’s a rapist even though they weren’t there either. The current theory is that you must believe any women who makes such an accusation because “women don’t lie about rape.” This means in effect that you have to convict any man who is accused, regardless of evidence or lack thereof.
There was also a constant call for the FBI to investigate. So they did as best as they could. They interviewed the witnesses (again). And what else is there to investigate? There’s no crime scene, there’s no evidence to analyse. But there’s this perception that if the FBI just were able to “do a real investigation” they’d be able to find evidence that Kavanaugh’s a rapist. I swear some people have seen too many episodes of CSI or Criminal Minds if they think that law enforcement can investigate a non existent crime scene.
You say that Kavanaugh is too mercurial to be a justice. I contend that you only saw him under very unusual circumstances, after he and his family had spent the last two weeks getting death threats.
TL;DR John Rabson Jr. is full of shit.

Kailey Gray, he called her "attractive" and then to clarify said "she was pleasing", that's not very ambiguous. If he's still living in the forties than that it makes sense why he makes such incredibly sexist and just moronic comments.

I was sexually assaulted over the course of a year and when I told my school about it, I gave specific dates that they could look ok their cameras and find him groping next or forcing me against a wall.
I did not press charges since that would force many of my friends to get involved (some who even told the school that I was correct and they had seen the guy aggressively assault me and talk about wanting me dead after I reported him).
The guy’s testimony was a lot like Brent’s.
Guess what my school said?
“It’s a he said she said situation.”
I’m sorry this happened to you. Your school sucks. Your friends were trying to help you, let them. It’s okay to ask for help, it does not make you weak or anything less. We have to create an environment that is healthy for everyone and that includes getting boys to know that that behavior is not okay.
Best wishes from a stranger. Trying to send some strength your way. I hope it finds you well.
You should've gotten your friends involved, if they don't want to support you in that situation they aren't real friends. Also any witnesses and additional voices will help
Maybe you should have done something about it. You have arms, you can use them, you know? To hit or stab people? To choke people? To punish people who have hurt you?
@@benp9793 This is classic victim blaming. It is a bad thing. Sexual assault victims often have feelings of self guilt which internally complicate their responses. It can take a very long time to come to terms with what happened. Even then, there's the constant public discourse of "he said she said" which permeates all discussions. You're making excuses for a sexual predator. You should be ashamed.

Latest Urban Dictionary: Devils Triangle
A made up game of quarters with three cups arranged in a triangle. The rules are unknown because the inventor of the game, Brett Kavanaugh, could not explain them under oath.
"Hey Renate? Want to play devils triangle with Mark and I?" Brett asked.
bullshit I lived the 80S its a 3 way with a whore and two guys asshole
Instruction not clear, sausage stuck in beer bottle.
do you always miss the joke?
I think our guy PT H here was being sarcastic man...
I don’t know if it’s just a Midwest thing, but I remember playing the Devil’s Circle about 5 years ago. It’s basically a game where you sit at a table and you hold a quarter against the table and flick it, then the next person has to flick it again and keep it spinning, and the last person to flick it before it falls over has to take a drink. I think the Devil’s Triangle might have been the original name, I’m not sure. But it’s definitely a drinking game. The Devil’s threesome is a sex act, not the Devil’s Triangle

You're going to accuse this guy of vicious crimes, based on what you think was his wife's facial expression?
Well, I suppose that's the kinda thing the Left does.....
Regardless of the personal views one may have, the fact that Kavanaugh was so disrespectful and poor at answering prepared questions should concern everybody. As his job requires him to be better prepared and more composed, regardless of how targeted the allegations would be. Furthermore, he must try to at least appear unpartisan. As it is now his confirmation would further call into question the validity of the supreme Court.
Incredible. Who answers "I don't know, have you?" like a rebel teenager in a trial like this?
@Joe Blow
And if she called him a gang rapist falsely she should be punished. But accusations must be looked into to find out if they are true or false. If they are clearly false then steps should be taken to punish the person clearly spreading false accusations. But that does not mean to dismiss every allegation on face value because no hard evidence is present. Investigations are meant to find that evidence

Apparently you’ve never worked in a highly competitive field. As an interviewer after seeing this do you still believe he’s the best applicant for the position? That under duress he’s displayed the proper characteristics that will best serve the position?
Alen Saric Thanks for reply btw I enjoy a good dialogue
No. I'm not an interviewer, anyones boss or in a position to interview someone, yet the answer is still no. If I were in such a position I would not hire someone like Brett Kavanaugh & that's regardless of whether he actually committed the crime he's been accused of in his teenage years. That said, I do think he's guilty of rape & not just because of Dr. Kristine Blausie Ford's compelling testimony.
In my opinion no, due to how he was highly emotional about the calendars, that would have made more sense if his father was dead and not sitting behind him, along with how he said he was innocent but refused to take tests that would prove his innocence. In a work place it would be similar to a store employee doing everything to prove they didn't steal from the store except look at the security tapes.
Watching that hearing was one of the worst experiences of my life. I can only imagine how it was for Dr. Ford. She knew going in that it would be rough, and then it was worse than she ever imagined. My daughter, 34 at the time and in another state, and I were texting throughout. We were both horrified. That evening, she called to tell me about being sexually assaulted in her twenties by a close friend that our family had known since they were in preschool. Dr. Ford's courageous testimony compelled her to share that and begin to try to deal with what that had done to her. And so it goes.
Not completely relevant, but when this was all over the news, it made me remember a repressed memory of sexual assault during college 15 years ago. My young mind at the time convinced itself that it was mutual because I couldn't stand the thought of being a victim. All this Kavanough crap made me revisit it and realize I was straight up raped. I just wanted to share because I get annoyed when people question why it took so long for the victim to speak up. Sometimes they repress that shit
So at the time it was consensual sex, but now upon reflection you decided it was a rape. Jeez, it's almost like you change your mind or something.
@@gettothepoint_already3858 No, Not how that works. She was raped. Numerous studies are coming out showing women repress and reframe because "it's my fault" or "I don't want to have been raped" is still a theme. It's like refusing to accept someone is assaulted because someone suckerpunched them at a bar instead of violenty beat them in a back alley, and they're insisting they didn't get in a fight for the same reason. If you're going to hold on to the whole "If you didn't report it then, it wasn't rape," I worry about your past and current partners mental health.
Paul Apollonio a way the human brain deals with trauma is by masking it repressing and hiding it
Thank you for sharing your story. I experienced trauma as well and although it wasn’t sexual assault the effect on my thought process was to reframe it as something that was my fault. Traumas effect on your brain makes it really hard for victims to come out with their stories because of fear or even repression or reframing of the memory of the traumatic event. Stay strong. Women and trauma victims appreciate your strength and bravery.

@@robbiesilverwolf Not sure why everybody seems to think that's the case. Congress required states to raise their age to 20 by 1986, and 21 by 1987, but Maryland notably had already raised theirs to 21 in 1982.
If they "Seniors" were 18 already, they were grandfathered in, AND it was still 18 just miles down the road in DC.
So they put seniors in a blender?
Aside from all the objections brought up here, let's not forget that Kavanaugh is on the record with the opinion that a sitting president should not be subject to subpoena, prosecution, or indictment while in office. He also refused to state whether or not he believes a president can pardon himself. I presume these facts were not unknown to President Trump when he selected him.
He's a raging hypocrite. When Clinton was president, he was all in favor of it, and wanted questions so in depth that Ken Star refused to ask them.
You are talking out of your ass. He does believe that sitting presidents should not be subject to all of that but he also believes they should be impeached first.

The best part is that each woman in this shot has the same reaction. Look at Amy Klobuchar, then the woman behind her, then the woman behind Kavanaugh. And even vaguely you can see the eyebrows of the woman behind the woman behind him raise up in shock. The implications of that moment are incredible, thanks for pointing it out @Matthew Herring!
I know that this is old, but I’m rewatching this and I feel like people don’t care much if someone gets felt up in high school because the idea is that teenage boys are Just Like That... which is not true??? Like there is such thing as a respectful, kind teenage boy, and Kavanaugh was clearly never that
Thank you. I cannot tell you how many people assumed that I was like this in high school. Too many people have this image of every teenage boy in their head without actually knowing anything about the person in question, and that leads to actual sexual predators being let off the hook
To be honest, I can’t think of one teenage boy who felt up girls, had crazy sexual experiences each weekend, used girls like Kleenex, etc... I am a few years younger than BK, so perhaps AIDS made our sexual experiences a bit different. To me it sounds more like these young men were from a very wealthy and privileged life where they could act like dogs and get away with it because daddy was rich / powerful and could clean up and messes these boys made.

Kavanaugh was not proven guilty that means that in the eyes of the law he is not guilty which is what really matters.

Scrolling through the comments while watching and I reached this comment just as he said it hahah
Jesus Christ, how was he ever appointed
Who the hell knows it's the government.
They said so: They had twenty names of judges, who would rule as the Republicans wanted and Trump picked one at random. (Or more likely, was given a large sum of money, because the dude is loaded.)
These proceedings are pointless. Who ever the president appoints to the Supreme Court always gets accepted. These hearings are just for formality reasons but are meaningless.
I dont understand why Hatch had to say Ford was "attractive" and "pleasing". I understand that he was put on the spot by the reporters, but those are the wrong words to say about a possible victim of sexual assault.
Even weirder is that practically all senators are lawyers. How do they screw up talking, when their training is entirely in talking.
because he thinks it's still 1953
The "attractive" followed by "pleasing", couldn't express more the "respect" those old GOPers have for women.
Agreed. I high key expect that a few of them want this buried so no one gets any ideas about digging up their own monstrocities from the past.
claude, we can't expect much from old man Hatch. After all he thinks common pedestrians when given a little more money only spend it on booze & women. Meaning - he doesn't naturally consider women as anything other than objects to obtain. Happy that fool is leaving american politics.
claudemiropacheco don't forget to vote this year
Exactly!
Me: A woman has come forward to share the pain of her dealing with sexual assault. Is there anything we can do to help her?
GOP: First question, how hot is she?
Boy, if this ain't the truth.
Y’all are forgetting kavanaugh got what he wanted and Dr fords life will never be the same
Steve White money is definitely no substitute to closure. Publicly coming out like that and having Republicans berate her for the rest of life now is not thing even millions of dollars could fix.
Steve White same question to you. How old are you and how much money do you make? Maybe someone like you really does need the money but us middle class folk have no need for that quantity of money. And as for her being a “hero”, a quick google search yielded that she is no longer working at Palo Alto university and had to move four times due to harassment. So either you are purposefully omitting facts, which a man of your caliber I’m sure you wouldn’t, or you are just saying what you want to hear. So good day to you
Steve White until I see an empirical article by you with cited sources and actual facts, I cannot take your “research” at face value. Insulting your intelligence you say? More like your ego.
@Steve White "There is no way Ford could have been motivated by money?" Are you real?
@Steve White I just did a quick google search "where is Christine Ford now?", and found several articles stating that she faced harassment and had to move 4 times. What sort of research are you doing?
Her courage is outstanding. And the disdain the Republican senators showed for women, yet again, is so depressing.
The way he focuses on beer suggests that he went a lot further than beer.
It made me wonder what was really in that glass that he needed a gulp of every time he got emotional.
You people are morons, right?
You're doing what, judging people on drinking beer?
Blowjob Bill, sexually black mail and abuse people, there's a whole impeachment process, actual crime.
Hussein Obama, serious drug abuse, he admitted it. Why don't you go back to school, kids?
Pathetic!
@@markarmage3776 have you watched the video through? lmfao...
its quite obvious this dude was lying through every hole in his body..
@@deadgaming20 Now that's the point, you used a comedic nonsensical video to judge a serious case of human rights violation. And that's violation of due process, go back to school, pal.
alright, have fun thinking whatever you want to think, and being the minority on this issue :)!
That is a supreme court judge? That is the best the USA has to offer? I seriously would not hire him to deliver pizza.
Then you’d be sued for wrongful termination
@@asher8754 Wrongful termination before I even hired him?
@@asher8754 yeah totally can be terminated BEFORE hiring. clearly you arent very employable
Have you seen our president?
I wouldn't trust him near the sausage.
18:10 “This is the most unethical sham since I’ve been in politics!” Does this guy forget he was in the Senate voting to fund the war in Iraq even AFTER it was proven there were no WMD’s?!??
Also, he is not in politics. He is a friggin judge. That is not a political position and I don't think he gets that.
moral is only an argument for the GOP if it serves their narrative.
Dont forget that McCain was one of those who was pro-war too.
Clorox Bleach no smart people here please leave Clorox!
But there were WMDs .... Try Google.
Brett Kavanaugh should Not be on the SCOTUS. Lindsey Graham should not be in the Senate. These two people are a stain on this country.
Just searched what happened after the trial and it's so sad to see that he did get the position and is now the associate justice of the supreme court, even after two additional women accused him of sexual assault. And to see that those very credible accusations were just regarded as "conspiracies"?
Same with biden but ohhh it only matters against non democrats
Jorge O. obviously it doesn't matter for democrat or republican men bc they get away with it anyway!
@@TheGeorgeee13 Biden said that even though it was false, she still deserved to have her argument heard and the facts examined. Kavanaugh said that investigating a false claim would be an insult.
Jorge O. Dumbass
He was cleared by the FBI
Old guy says"I think she's pleasing"...oh the cringe
He is commenting on a woman's appearance in the 21 century. Thats basically rape.
They are basically the same age, so what
fuck you. In this context it is extremely inappropriate and gross and if you can't see that then I do know what to say to you other than reconsider everything that led you to being so dumb.
@@Fankas2000 Nah, bro. Her appearance has nothing to do with her testimony being credible. And him calling her pleasing is NOT the same thing as calling her pretty. "Pleasing" has some pretty freaking strong implications. Just admit he's a creeper.
Sparksterchan "Pleasing" has some pretty freaking strong implications
There is such a thing as reading too deep.
“THIS IS THE MOST UNETHICAL...” **looks at script* “... SHAM...” **script check* “...SINCE I’VE BEEN IN POLITICS.”
He was thinking about Trumps balls on his chin that's why he kept forgetting the script
Did anyone else read this like graham? 😂
Anyone else stare at his teeth flare up and remember that scene from the office where Dwight says that when you show your teeth you are afraid.
Really comes from *looks at script* THE HEART. *looks for cameras to make eye contact with viewer*
Joking aside, if one cannot remember a single sentence, especially when spoken aloud, as a proclamation and denouncement of a particular process...It needs to be said in one go and memorized. Graham look to have been channelling Christopher Walken with that speech.
Alex Muncatchy I thought I read Hitchens the first three times I read you but you're alright
Make one woman's life miserable you say?
