Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh called Democratic opposition to his nomination "revenge on behalf of the Clintons" during an emotional and aggressive opening statement on Monday at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on his confirmation.
"This whole two-week effort has been a calculated and orchestrated political hit fueled with apparent pent-up anger about President Trump and the 2016 election, fear that has been unfairly stoked about my judicial record, revenge on behalf of the Clintons, and millions of dollars in money from outside left-wing opposition groups," a seething Kavanaugh said.
"This is a circus," Kavanaugh said with urgency. "The consequences will extend long past my nomination, the consequences will be with us for decades."
The embattled Supreme Court nominee throughout his testimony targeted Democrats who have openly opposed him, blaming them for "destroy[ing]" his family.

So the Clintons live rent free in Kavanaugh's head too.
