Tuesday marks the first day of Judge Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation
hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee, as Republicans aim to
swiftly confirm President Trump's second Supreme Court nominee and
Democrats demand more answers and more time.
The hearing is expected to be grueling, as Democrats insist on obtaining
and reviewing more records from Kavanaugh's tenure in the George W.
Bush administration, and question whether he believes a sitting
president can be indicted. Some Democrats have called for a delay in a
vote on the nominee until after November's midterm elections.
Republicans, on the other hand, largely satisfied with Kavanaugh and
looking for another win before the November midterms, want a speedy
confirmation process.
