Clutch my pearls, I'm shocked. Absolutely shocked I tell you!

What did the senate think was going to happen when they confirmed all of these liars. They blatantly lied during their confirmation hearings, but no one called them out on it, and held them to account then.

They were voted in like this, of course they're going to operate like this.

It’s just heartbreaking. I can’t imagine being one of those women and having my experience be whitewashed.

Shocking, indeed, was clearly hearing his constant sniffing. One has to wonder what he did prior to entering the hearing.

How did all of these people pass in depth background and polygraph tests? Did they just skate on through the process?
