Handmaids Tale Protest Over Abortion Rights

The confirmation hearing for the man who could become the country’s next supreme country justice is off to a combative start. Check out what happened when senators grilled Brett Kavanaugh about abortion on Tuesday, in the video above. More than a dozen women dressed in red gowns and white bonnets from the Handmaid’s Tale, showed up int eh balcony. They say kavanaugh views mirror those in the novel and Hulu series about female oppression. Kavanaugh is getting slammed online for snubbing a father of a high school student murdered in the Parkland School Shooting. The dad tired to shake hands, but Kavanaugh turned his head. The White House says, security simply kept the two men a part.

And Twitter is also going crazy over this video from the hearing. US Attorney John Bash is defending his Mexican-Jewish wife after liberals accuse her of flashing the white power signal. He calls the comments idiotic and sickening. From those viral out takes, you can see this hearing is being closely watched. But are all the extra eyes a help or hindrance?
