    We knew he was a garbage human being during the Anita Hill hearings.

    That he’s still a garbage human being now that he had even more power shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone with any understanding of how people work.

      Man, if only the head of that committee was a real leader. One willing to stand up for what is right, defend the victim, keep decorum, and allow the multiple other woman with similar complaints to testify…

      Imagine if Clarance could have been kept off the court

      I guess it would be pointless to look up who that was, it was 30 years ago and the Senator would have already been pretty senior to head that committee…

      I’m sure he’s far a way from modern politics by now, hell, he’d have to be like 81 years old now!

      No reason to disturb his likely retirement enjoying his time with his family.

      I vividly remember a newspaper clipping about the Anita Hill hearings being displayed at my school in 10th grade. If only I knew that POS would not only still be there 33 years later, but would be actively trying to destroy democracy.
