UK Daily Mail  "Brett Kavanaugh's daughters were escorted from his confirmation hearing on Tuesday as protestors drowned out senators with shouts against president Donald Trump's Supreme Court nominee filling the room.


"One by one, the protestors took turns shouting and being removed by U.S. Capitol Police as Kavanaugh's hearing got off to a contentious start. 
"A Republican senator described the hearing as 'mob rule' while another GOP senator complained about being shouted down, asking for the 'loudmouth' to be removed.
"Kavanaugh's children were escorted out of the hearing room, according to a reporter in the room
"Daughters Margaret and Liza had joined Kavanaugh and his wife Ashley at the hearing's start with younger daughter Liza holding Kavanaugh's hand as he entered the room.
"Kavanaugh was supposed to introduce his family early on in the hearing but the interruptions from protestors and senators delayed that part of the proceedings. " . . .
Democratic Sen. Dick Durbin acknowledged the protestors in the room.
'What we heard was the noise of democracy. This is what we hear when free people stand up to speak,' he said. 'It's not mob rule.'

Kavanaugh Confirmation Hearing Becomes A Joke In 10 Seconds
. . . "Within ten seconds of Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation hearings, Democrats immediately began to showboat.
"Before Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley could even finish his opening sentence, Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) immediately interrupted to ask that the hearings be delayed in order to review 42,000 documents pertaining to Kavanaugh that were dumped on the Senate last night.
" 'We cannot possibly move forward," Harris said, prompting applause from the audience." . . .
