Calls for Kavanaugh's impeachment as new allegations surface

New allegations of sexual misconduct against Brett Kavanaugh have come forward this week, and calls for his impeachment have started from several Democratic candidates. The alleged assault, once again, took place during his college years and has been uncovered by The New York Times.

This weekend, Presidential candidates Elizabeth Warren, Kamala Harris, Julián Castro and Pete Buttigieg said Kavanaugh should be taken off the nation's highest court after the latest accusation, which comes nearly a year after other misconduct allegations roiled Kavanaugh's confirmation hearings.

Harris tweeted, "I sat through those hearings. Brett Kavanaugh lied to the U.S. Senate and most importantly to the American people. He was put on the Court through a sham process and his place on the Court is an insult to the pursuit of truth and justice. He must be impeached."

Castro tweeted, "It’s more clear than ever that Brett Kavanaugh lied under oath. He should be impeached. And Congress should review the failure of the Department of Justice to properly investigate the matter."

"Last year the Kavanaugh nomination was rammed through the Senate without a thorough examination of the allegations against him," Warren tweeted. "Confirmation is not exoneration, and these newest revelations are disturbing. Like the man who appointed him, Kavanaugh should be impeached."

The man who appointed him, President T-rump, stood by Kavanaugh.

"Brett Kavanaugh should start suing people for libel, or the Justice Department should come to his rescue," T-rump tweeted.

What a surprise there!
