His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco) expressed alarm about the report.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"By defining gender as birth-assigned gender only, the Trump administration is trying to erase transgender people out of existence — consistent with the Administration's effort to erase LGBT people from health surveys and the census,\" Wiener said in a statement late Sunday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This action will have profound consequences. More trans children will commit suicide. More trans people will be assaulted and murdered. Trans people will be less healthy and less visible,\" Wiener said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Trump wants us to be invisible — to go away. We won't go away. And, California will continue to fully embrace our trans brothers and sisters and LGBT people generally,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chung said the impact of the move would be blunted in California due to protections for transgender people in health care, education, employment and housing that are enshrined in state law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, according to Chung, it could have other impacts, like making it harder for transgender people to access health services, such as HIV prevention and treatment. She said the Department of Health and Human Services allocates resources for those services based on which groups are most affected and changing the definition of gender to exclude transgender people would make it harder for them to be counted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't think that it would make us extinct, but it would certainly make us more invisible,\" Chung said, \"and in that case, it becomes an equity issue because you can't allocate resources to an invisible community.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chung said the potential change is most likely to have an impact in counties and cities that are more traditionally conservative, where schools in particular are less likely to have strong protections in place for transgender students.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said the Transgender Law Center is willing to go to court if the policy leads to discrimination in California schools against transgender kids, and she's confident that the change would be deemed unconstitutional based on previous court rulings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think the best analogy I can give is to see the administration as this big bully, and since the transgender and gender non-confirming community is a minority, that sets up this whole David and Goliath dynamic,\" she said. \"But of course, in the end, we know that David wins. We are very confident that justice and the constitution are on our side.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Diane Ehrensaft, director of mental health at UCSF’s Child and Adolescent Gender Center Clinic in San Francisco, said the administration’s stance would end up harming transgender children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“To tell them ‘You don’t exist and you can’t live your life accordingly, like using the bathroom to match who you are,’ is to increase the alarmingly high rates of risk that are there already,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ehrensaft said transgender kids who are not supported will frequently experience anxiety, depression and impulses to self-harm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s not because they’re transgender, it’s because of how people treat them. This draft will ensure they are not treated well and their risk rates are going to go way up.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On surveys, U.S. transgender adults have reported attempting suicide at a \u003ca href=\"https://williamsinstitute.law.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/AFSP-Williams-Suicide-Report-Final.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rate of around 40 percent\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One local parent of a 7-year-old transgender girl said she was \"horrified\" by the language of the administration's memorandum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"For [transgender children] to have to hear the words coming from their government that were sent out yesterday is heartbreaking,\" said Molly, who lives in the East Bay and didn't want her last name used for reasons of privacy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I just want them to know that they are seen and celebrated and loved, and they exist, and that there is no way they're going away.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story has been updated.

Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco) expressed alarm about the report.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"By defining gender as birth-assigned gender only, the Trump administration is trying to erase transgender people out of existence — consistent with the Administration's effort to erase LGBT people from health surveys and the census,\" Wiener said in a statement late Sunday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This action will have profound consequences. More trans children will commit suicide. More trans people will be assaulted and murdered. Trans people will be less healthy and less visible,\" Wiener said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Trump wants us to be invisible — to go away. We won't go away. And, California will continue to fully embrace our trans brothers and sisters and LGBT people generally,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chung said the impact of the move would be blunted in California due to protections for transgender people in health care, education, employment and housing that are enshrined in state law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, according to Chung, it could have other impacts, like making it harder for transgender people to access health services, such as HIV prevention and treatment. She said the Department of Health and Human Services allocates resources for those services based on which groups are most affected and changing the definition of gender to exclude transgender people would make it harder for them to be counted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't think that it would make us extinct, but it would certainly make us more invisible,\" Chung said, \"and in that case, it becomes an equity issue because you can't allocate resources to an invisible community.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chung said the potential change is most likely to have an impact in counties and cities that are more traditionally conservative, where schools in particular are less likely to have strong protections in place for transgender students.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said the Transgender Law Center is willing to go to court if the policy leads to discrimination in California schools against transgender kids, and she's confident that the change would be deemed unconstitutional based on previous court rulings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think the best analogy I can give is to see the administration as this big bully, and since the transgender and gender non-confirming community is a minority, that sets up this whole David and Goliath dynamic,\" she said. \"But of course, in the end, we know that David wins. We are very confident that justice and the constitution are on our side.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Diane Ehrensaft, director of mental health at UCSF’s Child and Adolescent Gender Center Clinic in San Francisco, said the administration’s stance would end up harming transgender children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“To tell them ‘You don’t exist and you can’t live your life accordingly, like using the bathroom to match who you are,’ is to increase the alarmingly high rates of risk that are there already,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ehrensaft said transgender kids who are not supported will frequently experience anxiety, depression and impulses to self-harm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s not because they’re transgender, it’s because of how people treat them. This draft will ensure they are not treated well and their risk rates are going to go way up.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On surveys, U.S. transgender adults have reported attempting suicide at a \u003ca href=\"https://williamsinstitute.law.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/AFSP-Williams-Suicide-Report-Final.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rate of around 40 percent\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One local parent of a 7-year-old transgender girl said she was \"horrified\" by the language of the administration's memorandum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"For [transgender children] to have to hear the words coming from their government that were sent out yesterday is heartbreaking,\" said Molly, who lives in the East Bay and didn't want her last name used for reasons of privacy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I just want them to know that they are seen and celebrated and loved, and they exist, and that there is no way they're going away.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story has been updated.

Three of them — Daley and Gillen, of Redondo Beach, and Miselis, of Lawndale — were expected to make initial court appearances later Tuesday, while White, of Clayton, was due in court Wednesday, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It wasn’t clear if the men had attorneys who could comment on their behalf, and attempts to reach their relatives were not immediately successful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cullen said each defendant faces up to 10 years in prison if convicted on the two counts they each face: traveling to incite riots and conspiracy to riot. However, defendants often get less than the maximum under federal sentencing guidelines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The arrests come more than a year after hundreds of white nationalists descended on Charlottesville in part to protest the planned removal of a statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clashes erupted Aug. 11, 2017, as a crowd of white nationalists marching through the University of Virginia campus carrying torches and chanting racist slogans encountered a small group of counterprotesters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The following day, more violence broke out between counterprotesters and attendees of the “Unite the Right” rally, which was believed to be the largest gathering of white nationalists in at least a decade. Street fighting exploded before the scheduled event could begin and went on for nearly an hour in view of police until authorities forced the crowd to disperse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cullen said investigators sifted through “an incredible volume” of video and still photographs to review the movements of the four men and determine whether they could claim they were only defending themselves after being attacked by others at the rally. He said prosecutors believe there was “no provocation” for them to engage in violence that day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The four, he said, went to the rally with their hands taped, “ready to do street battle.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then they engaged in punching, kicking, head-butting and pushing, assaulting an African-American man, two women and a minister who was wearing a clerical collar, Cullen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In our view, these four committed particularly violent acts in Charlottesville.

The news outlet reported in July that the group was founded in early 2017 and had a relatively modest core membership of 15 to 20 young men.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ProPublica and Frontline also reported in July that Miselis was a member of RAM, worked as an aerospace engineer at defense contractor Northrop Grumman’s facility in Redondo Beach and held a government-issued security clearance. A company spokesman later said Miselis was no longer employed by the company but didn’t say whether Miselis was fired or resigned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After authorities forced the rally to disband on Aug. 12, a woman was killed when a car that prosecutors say was driven by a man fascinated by Adolf Hitler plowed into a crowd of peaceful counterprotesters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11696058\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11696058\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/CarCharlottesvilleScene-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"People receive first-aid at the scene where 21-year-old James Fields Jr. plowed his car into a crowd of peaceful protesters in Charlottesville on Aug. 12, 2017.

However, defendants often get less than the maximum under federal sentencing guidelines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The arrests come more than a year after hundreds of white nationalists descended on Charlottesville in part to protest the planned removal of a statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clashes erupted Aug. 11, 2017, as a crowd of white nationalists marching through the University of Virginia campus carrying torches and chanting racist slogans encountered a small group of counterprotesters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The following day, more violence broke out between counterprotesters and attendees of the “Unite the Right” rally, which was believed to be the largest gathering of white nationalists in at least a decade. Street fighting exploded before the scheduled event could begin and went on for nearly an hour in view of police until authorities forced the crowd to disperse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cullen said investigators sifted through “an incredible volume” of video and still photographs to review the movements of the four men and determine whether they could claim they were only defending themselves after being attacked by others at the rally. He said prosecutors believe there was “no provocation” for them to engage in violence that day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The four, he said, went to the rally with their hands taped, “ready to do street battle.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then they engaged in punching, kicking, head-butting and pushing, assaulting an African-American man, two women and a minister who was wearing a clerical collar, Cullen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In our view, these four committed particularly violent acts in Charlottesville. Secondly, they committed violent acts in California at other rallies. Therefore, in our view, they were essentially serial rioters,” Cullen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The testimony from both Ford and Kavanaugh — accuser and accused — comes after a year in which the rise and the cultural influence of the #MeToo movement has raised sensitivity to the accounts of sexual assault victims, a significant cultural shift since 1991 when Anita Hill testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee about her allegations of sexual harassment against Clarence Thomas during his confirmation process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Watch Kavanaugh's opening statement:\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=6&v=lL94tAsjYfk\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/09/26/651545283/watch-live-trump-holds-press-conference-at-u-n\">Speaking Wednesday during a press conference\u003c/a>, Trump said the allegations against Kavanaugh \"are all false to me.\" But the president indicated he would be watching Ford's testimony to determine whether she is believable, and even suggested he might withdraw the nomination based on what occurred Thursday. In the same remarks, the president also defended Kavanaugh and criticized the multiple allegations against the judge as a \"big, fat con job\" perpetrated by Democrats trying to stop the confirmation of a conservative judge to the Supreme Court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kavanaugh's initial indignant approach stood in stark contrast to Ford's testimony earlier in the hearing.

One point where he was especially emotional was in talking about the toll the accusations have taken on his family, particularly his two young daughters. He teared up as he said his 10-year-old daughter, when saying her bedtime prayers, said they should pray for Ford. \"We mean no ill will,\" \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YK_6j-Kc-3I\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kavanaugh said\u003c/a>, and he said he believed Ford may have been a victim of sexual assault at one point in her life — just not by him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ford said she didn't remember all of the specifics such as the date or place of the alleged attack, which has led some to question the veracity of her claims. But, with her voice cracking, she did recall certain vivid details, adding: \"Indelible in the hippocampus is the laughter, the uproarious laughter between the two and their having fun at my expense.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ford also said the details she does remember \"about that night that bring me here today are ones I will never forget. They have been seared into my memory and have haunted me episodically as an adult.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Watch Ford's opening statement:\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJORwf3izUU\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When she was 15 and Kavanaugh was 17, the two ended up at the same party. Ford said she had one beer, while Kavanaugh and his friend, Mark Judge, \"were visibly drunk.\" When she went upstairs to use the restroom, Kavanaugh and Judge pushed her into a bedroom and locked the door. Ford claimed Kavanaugh pushed her onto the bed and \"began running his hands over my body and grinding his hips into me.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I believed he was going to rape me. I tried to yell for help. When I did, Brett put his hand over my mouth to stop me from screaming. This was what terrified me the most, and has had the most lasting impact on my life. It was hard for me to breathe, and I thought that Brett was accidentally going to kill me,\" Ford said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kavanaugh admitted that he drank in high school — \"sometimes I had too many beers. I liked beer. I still like beer\" — but said he \"did not drink beer to the point of blacking out, and I never sexually assaulted anyone.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If every American who drinks beer or drank beer in high school is suddenly presumed guilty of sexual assault in high school, it will be an ugly place in this country,\" Kavanaugh said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/AOr808UXOgE\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also presented calendars he kept during high school — a practice he compared to a diary that he modeled after his father's own habit — and said they showed he was often out of town during the summer in question when Ford alleges the assault occurred.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ford also insisted she had no political agenda in coming forward with her accusations, telling lawmakers, \"I am an independent person and I am no one's pawn.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The hearing got off to a tense start, exposing the deep partisan divides that have colored the accusations from Ford and other women. Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, first acknowledged that Kavanaugh, Ford and their families have \"received vile threats\" since the allegations became public.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"What they have endured ought to be considered by all of us as unacceptable and a poor reflection on the state of civility in our democracy,\" Grassley said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But then he went on to chastise the committee's ranking member, Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., for a delay in giving the full committee the private letter setting forth the allegations against Kavanaugh that she received back in July from Ford, who is a constituent of Feinstein's in California. Ford had first requested that her allegations remain private, but as she later told the committee, when it became clear her name would be public, she then told her story to \u003cem>The Washington Post. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Grassley also pointed out that many of the witnesses Ford has identified deny that the party in question took place. He also defended hiring an outside attorney to assist with questioning during Thursday's hearing, saying he saw \"no basis for complaint [from Democrats] other than just plain politics.\" Rachel Mitchell \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/09/26/651735137/sex-crimes-prosecutor-picked-for-kavanaugh-hearing-brings-decades-of-experience\">is a sex crimes prosecutor\u003c/a> from Arizona who has pushed for best practices in investigations to protect and serve victims of assault.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Feinstein pushed back during her subsequent remarks, pointing out that most sexual assaults go unreported and that 1 in 3 women and 1 in 6 men will experience some form of sexual violence in their lives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She warned colleagues that \"the entire country is watching how we handle these allegations\" and she criticized a \"rush to judgment\" on the allegations and quick push for confirmation, calling it a \"real question of character for someone who is asking for a lifetime appointment on the Supreme Court.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is not a trial for Dr. Ford. This is a job interview for Brett Kavanaugh,\" Feinstein said, asking, \"Is he the best we can do?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/uIbxZ_96BZo\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The hearing pivoted somewhat awkwardly between Republican senators ceding their time to Mitchell, who questioned Ford about her past statements to the media and her specific memories about the circumstances of the alleged assault. Among her questions, the prosecutor tried to poke holes in Ford's fear of flying, which Ford said was triggered by PTSD following the alleged assault. And Mitchell pressed Ford about the polygraph she took to back up her claims — and which Ford revealed she took outside Baltimore just after she had attended her grandmother's funeral.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ford explained how the incident had affected her throughout her life — from struggling academically during her undergraduate years at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, to difficulty in forming relationships and friendships, and ultimately pressing for a second front door during a remodel of her California home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Near the end of her questioning, Mitchell reminded Ford that the other people she identified as being at the party have told the committee, under penalty of felony, that they did not remember the gathering or the incident in question.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't expect that P.J. and Leland would remember this evening,\" Ford responded. \"It was a very unremarkable party ... because nothing happened to them that evening.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democratic senators used their time to largely reiterate their support for Ford, bemoan how she was being treated and criticize that a further probe by the FBI — as Ford has requested — was not undertaken.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You have given America an amazing teaching moment,\" Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., told the college professor. \"You have inspired and you have enlightened America. You have inspired and given courage to women to come forward, as they have done to every one of our offices and many other public places.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., noted he was also in the Senate during hearings that have drawn obvious parallels to this one — Hill's testimony during the Thomas confirmation hearings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leahy said the Senate \"failed\" Hill back in 1991, and \"I am concerned we are doing a lot less for these three women today.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Watch Sen. Leahy's questioning:\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/mhxpuj32ERg\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., a former district attorney and state attorney general, told Ford that, \"I believe you, and I believe many Americans across this country believe you.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When it was time to question Kavanaugh, Democrats pressed him about the contents of his high school calendars and yearbook quotations, which had references to drinking games and partying.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Senate Minority Whip Dick Durbin, D-Ill., grilled Kavanaugh on whether or not he would submit to an FBI investigation into the charges, as Democrats want. He said he would go along with whatever the committee wants — which the Republican majority does not think is necessary — but never said on record that he would call for an FBI investigation himself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Watch Sen. Durbin's questioning:\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/s6pVXCVPJzU\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., pressed Kavanaugh about his drinking habits, he tried to turn the question back on the lawmaker and ask about her drinking. After a recess, Kavanaugh apologized for how he handled that line of questioning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Grassley ceded his questioning time to Mitchell, who forcefully pressed Kavanaugh on his denials and his drinking habits, but then several others — unlike with their opportunity to question Ford — took their allotted time to condemn how Kavanaugh has been treated. It was a marked shift from Republicans' hesitancy to question Ford, cognizant of how a group of men pressing a woman on her claims of sexual assault might come across. (There are six GOP women in the Senate, but none sit on the Judiciary Committee.) Through the final stretch of the hearing, Mitchell was not given the opportunity to probe his testimony, as she was with Ford's.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham became the first GOP senator to use his time to address Kavanaugh, and he angrily lashed out at Democrats on the committee for stonewalling the nomination.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You've got nothing to apologize for,\" Graham told Kavanaugh. \"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.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Graham accused Democrats of simply trying to keep the vacant Supreme Court seat open until at least the midterm elections, when they hope they might gain control of the Senate, exclaiming, \"Boy, y'all want power. I hope you never get it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is not a job interview. This is hell,\" Graham said, riffing on an earlier comment by Feinstein. \"This is going to destroy the ability of good people to come forward because of this crap.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Senate Majority Whip John Cornyn also used his time after Graham to talk to Kavanaugh, comparing the allegations and questions that the Supreme Court nominee has had to face to the infamous 1954 McCarthy hearings that were purportedly aimed at rooting out communism in the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, said, \"this is worse than [failed Reagan Supreme Court nominee] Robert Bork and I didn't think it could get any worse than that. This is worse than Clarence Thomas, and I didn't think it could get any worse than that.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Retiring Arizona Sen. Jeff Flake — a frequent Trump critic who has shown sympathy toward Ford — is a critical swing vote on both the committee and in the full Senate. The Republican's comments toward Kavanaugh were brief and he gave no hint of how he might vote, simply saying that, \"In the end, there is likely to be as much doubt as certainty\" about whether Ford or Kavanaugh is telling the truth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Watch Sen. Flake's statements:\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/AheUQbKjiC4\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Judiciary Committee released a timeline late on Wednesday night that indicated it had interviewed two men who believed they, not Kavanaugh, were the ones in the episode described by Ford.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ford categorically denied that could have been possible, saying she was \"100 percent\" certain that it was Kavanaugh who allegedly assaulted her.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The psychology professor sometimes explained clinically how what happened to her more than three decades ago was \"seared\" in her memory — especially the laughter as Kavanaugh and Judge allegedly held her onto the bed, trapped.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Indelible in the hippocampus is the laughter, the uproarious laughter between the two and their having fun at my expense.\" Ford said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thursday's hearing on Capitol Hill drew widespread, passionate interest. Both actress Alyssa Milano — who has been an advocate for sexual assault survivors after speaking up about her own assault — and New York Democratic Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand are in the hearing room as guests of Democrats on the Judiciary Committee in the Dirksen Senate Office Building.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There were protesters and demonstrators next door in the Hart Senate Office Building — mostly women with some men, the majority of whom are opposing Kavanaugh's nomination.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just after the hearings concluded, the full Senate GOP conference was set to meet, likely to decide whether the committee would go ahead with a vote on the nomination as early as Friday morning. Republican leaders are eager to move ahead on the nomination and get it to the Senate floor quickly. Democrats have continued calling for delays to the hearing and the committee vote until the FBI investigates the allegations against Kavanaugh.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>NPR's Scott Detrow and Art Silverman contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2018 NPR.

Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, first acknowledged that Kavanaugh, Ford and their families have \"received vile threats\" since the allegations became public.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"What they have endured ought to be considered by all of us as unacceptable and a poor reflection on the state of civility in our democracy,\" Grassley said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But then he went on to chastise the committee's ranking member, Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., for a delay in giving the full committee the private letter setting forth the allegations against Kavanaugh that she received back in July from Ford, who is a constituent of Feinstein's in California. Ford had first requested that her allegations remain private, but as she later told the committee, when it became clear her name would be public, she then told her story to \u003cem>The Washington Post. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Grassley also pointed out that many of the witnesses Ford has identified deny that the party in question took place.

Among her questions, the prosecutor tried to poke holes in Ford's fear of flying, which Ford said was triggered by PTSD following the alleged assault. And Mitchell pressed Ford about the polygraph she took to back up her claims — and which Ford revealed she took outside Baltimore just after she had attended her grandmother's funeral.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ford explained how the incident had affected her throughout her life — from struggling academically during her undergraduate years at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, to difficulty in forming relationships and friendships, and ultimately pressing for a second front door during a remodel of her California home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Near the end of her questioning, Mitchell reminded Ford that the other people she identified as being at the party have told the committee, under penalty of felony, that they did not remember the gathering or the incident in question.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't expect that P.J. and Leland would remember this evening,\" Ford responded. \"It was a very unremarkable party ... because nothing happened to them that evening.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democratic senators used their time to largely reiterate their support for Ford, bemoan how she was being treated and criticize that a further probe by the FBI — as Ford has requested — was not undertaken.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You have given America an amazing teaching moment,\" Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., told the college professor. \"You have inspired and you have enlightened America.

After a recess, Kavanaugh apologized for how he handled that line of questioning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Grassley ceded his questioning time to Mitchell, who forcefully pressed Kavanaugh on his denials and his drinking habits, but then several others — unlike with their opportunity to question Ford — took their allotted time to condemn how Kavanaugh has been treated. It was a marked shift from Republicans' hesitancy to question Ford, cognizant of how a group of men pressing a woman on her claims of sexual assault might come across. (There are six GOP women in the Senate, but none sit on the Judiciary Committee.) Through the final stretch of the hearing, Mitchell was not given the opportunity to probe his testimony, as she was with Ford's.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham became the first GOP senator to use his time to address Kavanaugh, and he angrily lashed out at Democrats on the committee for stonewalling the nomination.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You've got nothing to apologize for,\" Graham told Kavanaugh. \"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.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Graham accused Democrats of simply trying to keep the vacant Supreme Court seat open until at least the midterm elections, when they hope they might gain control of the Senate, exclaiming, \"Boy, y'all want power. I hope you never get it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is not a job interview. This is hell,\" Graham said, riffing on an earlier comment by Feinstein. \"This is going to destroy the ability of good people to come forward because of this crap.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Senate Majority Whip John Cornyn also used his time after Graham to talk to Kavanaugh, comparing the allegations and questions that the Supreme Court nominee has had to face to the infamous 1954 McCarthy hearings that were purportedly aimed at rooting out communism in the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, said, \"this is worse than [failed Reagan Supreme Court nominee] Robert Bork and I didn't think it could get any worse than that. This is worse than Clarence Thomas, and I didn't think it could get any worse than that.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Retiring Arizona Sen. Jeff Flake — a frequent Trump critic who has shown sympathy toward Ford — is a critical swing vote on both the committee and in the full Senate. The Republican's comments toward Kavanaugh were brief and he gave no hint of how he might vote, simply saying that, \"In the end, there is likely to be as much doubt as certainty\" about whether Ford or Kavanaugh is telling the truth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Watch Sen.

Hosts Ki Sung and Katrina Schwartz introduce listeners to educators, researchers, parents and students who are developing effective ways to improve how kids learn. We cover topics like how fed-up administrators are developing surprising tactics to deal with classroom disruptions; how listening to podcasts are helping kids develop reading skills; the consequences of overparenting; and why interdisciplinary learning can engage students on all ends of the traditional achievement spectrum. This podcast is part of the MindShift education site, a division of KQED News. KQED is an NPR/PBS member station based in San Francisco.
