EXCERPT:
REID: "Charles, I was getting texts all day, and have been for the last three days, from people who, similarly to what Joyce is saying, would normally not sit there and watch all day a confirmation hearing as I would because I’m a nerd. The outrage is real. A lot of it was about the blatant disrespect. I tweeted that they were treating her like a black shopper that they were following through the store. Just the ultimate disrespect for her as a human being, as a judge, the fact that her family was there. All because, in Lindsey Graham's view, apparently this whole hearing was payback for Kavanaugh, who nobody told him to sexually violate his high school friend or those girls in college and get accused of it credibly. That is not the fault of Ketanji Brown Jackson. Apparently, according to Lindsey Graham, she needs to pay for that.”
