Leader mcconnell took to a meeting in the last 24 hours. yes, it was a political meeting, but really inappropriate to throw red meat out at his fan base, his base and to say dont worry about all the chatter, dont get rattled, justice -- judge kavanaugh will be confirmed to the supreme court of the united states. hes a leader. hes a leader of the united states senate. yes, hes a majority leader and there is a minority leader and senator schumer has made his comments about how outraged hes been ab...

[boos] >> the top two issues from missouri voters this midterm are healthcare and the economy. and the deciding issue could kavanaugh. she plans to vote against kavanaughs confirmation. more than a quarter of likely voters may still change their mind before election day. 32% said they would be less likely to vote mccaskill if she opposed kavanaugh. both her opponent and the president went after her on that issue. >> ...

>> they had the opportunity to do it privately. if senator feinstein brought it up and they handled it when it first came to light, they could have handled it that way. that ship has sailed. this is out there, and the american people at this point have a right to be able to judge the credibility of both parties. it has to be done publicly now. its unfortunate for dr. ford that now her whole life has been in complete turmoil. she has death threats. she has two kids. this is awful. this is where w...

Is this really what america wants in its next supreme court justice? if you can imagine texting something like that or putting it on twitter, mindless. coulter is a writer, as ifie she needed another example of it, and she joins us tonight. so what do you make of the fact, i was trying to get this straight answer from my last guest. im not sure what i even think of it. what do you make of the fact that dianne feinstein is saying, im not sure i believe christine ford now? >> dianne feinstein has ...

Supremely confident. the very idea schumer or anyone is going to be able to get to the bottom of a 36-year-old allegation is ludicrous. and chuck, as you know, lie detectors arent admissible in court for a reason. lindsey graham made a point by the way, earlier today, he said, its a little odd that she even decided to take a lie detector test and wanted to remain anonymous. huh. the fact is, no way to ensure brett kavanaugh will receive due process here because allegations such as this, they sho...

>> yet, he has -- thats not what schumer and -- >> he walked away from it. the bigger issue this week, all of this talk about the op-ed and this book has obscured the fact that theres another rubber stamp thats coming down the pike, which is justice potentially kavanaugh. here is a man who was put on the list of trumps favored potential supreme court justices because he has an expansive view of presidential power. he doesnt believe in special counsels. he doesnt believe presidents should be subp...
