Democratic senator asks Amy Coney Barrett if she has ever sexually assaulted someone

Sen. Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii, asked a question pertaining to an issue that came up quite a bit during Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearing but had yet to come up during Judge Amy Coney Barrett’s hearing: whether the Supreme Court nominee had ever sexually assaulted someone.
Citing a statement from Chief Justice John Roberts in 2017 in which he acknowledged that the judiciary “is not immune” from the problem of sexual misconduct, Hirono said it is her duty “to ensure the fitness of nominees” for positions that have lifetime appointments.
“Since you became a legal adult, have you ever made unwanted requests for sexual favors, or committed any physical or verbal harassment or assault of a sexual nature?” Hirono asked.
“No, Senator Hirono,” Barrett replied.
Senator Mazie Hirono asked Amy Coney Barrett if she sexually assaulted anyone.
Kavanaugh’s 2018 confirmation process was marked by an allegation from Dr. Christine Blasey Ford that he had attempted to sexually assault her at a party while he was a teenager. Other allegations of misconduct then followed. Kavanaugh vehemently denied any wrongdoing, and was narrowly confirmed with a vote of 50 to 48.

It's a sad state of affairs when I read something like this, and my reaction is basically "Well, yeah, because Mazie Hirono."

Mazie is nothing more than the Leftist Useful Idiot der Woche.

One knew who the senator was even before reading the story.
And I used to think Patricia Murray was (is) stupid.

They call her Crazy Mazie for a reason.

I wonder who is crazier. :mental:

I believe the purpose of the question was to get someone to claim sexual-harassment, to slow down the confirmation hearings. It seems it did not work.
