Tucker Carlson said Hawaii Sen. Mazie Hirono has become a left-wing “folk hero” for inventing a new system of justice in the United States, where men are presumed guilty and the accused must prove their innocence.
Carlson also ripped Senate Republicans, saying their actions show they “don’t care about you,” the citizen.
Hirono threw her support behind Christine Blasey Ford, who accused Judge Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault, allegedly during a Maryland party in 1982.
Speaking at a press availability last week, she told American men to “shut up and step up.”
“Not only do women like Dr. Ford, who bravely comes forward, need to be heard — but they need to be believed,” Hirono said.
Carlson “translated” Hirono’s rhetoric as “all men are guilty, not because they’ve been proven guilty, but because they are men… they are inherently guilty.”
He said that under Hirono and the Democrats’ new justice system, a person is preordained to be innocent or guilty based on birth.
“All women are to be believed… Evidence is irrelevant,” Carlson said.
Hirono, who faces Republican engineer Ron Curtis in November’s election, said Kavanaugh has been judged negatively in what she called a “court of credibility.”
“Look, we’re not in a court of law. We’re actually in a court of credibility at this point. And, without having the FBI report or some semblance of trying to get corroboration we are left with the credibility of the two witnesses,” Hirono told MSNBC.
Let’s see. Is Senator Hirono married? Has she filed charges against her husband? Why not? Or… is she lesbian?
I refuse to cede the moral high ground to someone who does not honor their oath to the Constitution, an example of which is abdicating the responsibility the Congress has to coin money and “…regulate the value thereof…” to the opaque, unelected, and unaccountable Fed…permitting wholesale violation of citizens’ Fourth Amendment rights…undeclared war/kinetic military action/what-have-you. I could go on and on. What this woman thinks is utterly irrelevant.
