@SenatorCollins floor speech in a word – wow. It will go down in history as one of the most thoughtful, reasoned explanations of support of a Supreme Court nominee.

Unlike most Kavanaugh critics, she actually took the time to do her job. She read his opinions, she had in-depth interviews, she listened to the accusers, and she applied a process of the rule of law versus the rule of the mob. She rose to the occasion.

If we had legitimized the coordinated efforts at character assassination, it would have destroyed the Judiciary over time and eroded constitutional principles that protect every American.
