The late Sen.
Lindsey Graham (R-SC) had moments that gave Republican voters heartburn, but we’re going to dwell on that today.
Graham passed away suddenly last night.
If there is an all-time great moment from his tenure on the Hill, it’s when he took a blowtorch to Senate Democrats who attempted to character assassinate then-Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh in 2018.
It led to some of the nastiest, most contentious Supreme Court hearings since Clarence Thomas.
Kavanaugh was hit with rape and gang rape allegations from some whack job women.
It failed.
He’s now on the Supreme Court, but it was an ugly battle.
Still, Graham taking a sledgehammer to his Democratic colleagues is for posterity (via Graham’s Senate Office ):
I disagreed with Senator Lindsey Graham on a number of issues, but this is how I am going to choose to remember him.

Sen.
Lindsey Graham to committee Democrats: "This is the most unethical sham since I've been in politics...
Boy, y'all want power.
Boy, I hope you never get it.
I hope the American people can see through this sham, that you knew about it and you held it." pic.twitter.com/NnpcF33smC

Are you aware that at 9:23 on the night of July the 9th, the day you were nominated to the Supreme Court by President Trump, Senator Schumer said 23-minutes after your nomination, "I will oppose Judge Kavanaugh's nomination with everything I have, I have (sic) a bipartisan -- and I hope a bipartisan majority will do the same.
The stakes are simply too high for anything less."
Well, if you weren't aware of it, you are now.
Did you meet with Senator Dianne Feinstein on August 20th?
I did meet with Senator Feinstein...
Did you know that her staff had already recommended a lawyer to Dr.
Ford?
...
I did not know that.
Did you know that her and her staff had this -- allegations for over 20 days?
I did not know that at the time.
If you wanted a FBI investigation, you could have come to us.
What you want to do is destroy this guy's life, hold this seat open and hope you win in 2020.
You've said that, not me.
You've got nothing to apologize for.
When you see Sotomayor and Kagan, tell them that Lindsey said hello because I voted for them.
I would never do to them what you've done to this guy.
This is the most unethical sham since I've been in politics.
And if you really wanted to know the truth, you sure as hell wouldn't have done what you've done to this guy.
Are you a gang rapist?
I cannot imagine what you and your family have gone through.
Boy, you all want power.
God, I hope you never get it.
I hope the American people can see through this sham.
That you knew about it and you held it.
You had no intention of protecting Dr.
Ford; none.
She's as much of a victim as you are.
God, I hate to say it because these have been my friends.
But let me tell you, when it comes to this, you're looking for a fair process?
You came to the wrong town at the wrong time, my friend.
Do you consider this a job interview?
If (ph) the advice and consent role is like a job interview.
Do you consider that you've been through a job interview?
I've been through a process of advice and consent under the Constitution, which...
Would you say you've been through hell?
I -- I've been through hell and then some.
This is not a job interview.
This is going to destroy the ability of good people to come forward because of this crap.
Your high school yearbook -- you have interacted with professional women all your life, not one accusation.
You're supposed to be Bill Cosby when you're a junior and senior in high school.
And all of a sudden, you got over it.
It's been my understanding that if you drug women and rape them for two years in high school, you probably don't stop.
Here's my understanding, if you lived a good life people would recognize it, like the American Bar Association has, the gold standard.
His integrity is absolutely unquestioned.
He is the very circumspect in his personal conduct, harbors no biases or prejudices.
He's entirely ethical, is a really decent person.
He is warm, friendly, unassuming.
He's the nicest person -- the ABA.
The one thing I can tell you should be proud of -- Ashley, you should be proud of this -- that you raised a daughter who had the good character to pray for Dr.
Ford.
To my Republican colleagues, if you vote no, you're legitimizing the most despicable thing I have seen in my time in politics.
You want this seat?
I hope you never get it.
I hope you're on the Supreme Court, that's exactly where you should be.
And I hope that the American people will see through this charade.
And I wish you well.
And I intend to vote for you and I hope everybody who's fair-minded will.
JUSTICE BRETT KAVANAUGH
Rest in peace, senator.
Last note: There is still no solid corroborating evidence that Kavanaugh ever met Christine Blasey Ford, whose attorney openly admitted Ford tried to sabotage the process because abortion rights were under threat.
