Washington - Brett M. Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court confirmation hearing is scheduled to last all week. Judiciary Committee Chairman Charles E. Grassley lost control after just 13 words.
She protested that the administration had dumped 42,000 pages of Kavanaugh's writings the night before, leaving no time to review them.
This time, Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., interrupted, saying the lack of documents "turns this hearing into a charade and a mockery of our norms. … I therefore move to adjourn."
There has never been a disruptive spectacle like this at a Supreme Court confirmation hearing. But then there has never been a Supreme Court nomination like this.
