about this person getting to the supreme court. maryland has eliminated the statute of limitations for kidnapping and for sexual assault of a minor and i think that is still out there. there may be an investigation along those lines. i think this is a situation that will not go away p people from the federalist society and the heritage foundation and they've spent decades and millions of dollars to lay the groundwork for people like judge kavanaugh and everybody else to get on the court with their very outcome-driven agenda that will not support women's right to choose. basically judge kavanaugh, in particular, very expansive views predicting a sitting president for criminal or civil proceedings and this president, in particular, is aware of that. his mission is self preservation every second, minute, hour of the day. >> senator hirono, thank you.
