Fox News on Monday released a clip of the just-taped interview between the network’s Martha MacCallum and Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh and his wife Ashley Estes Kavanaugh.

MacCallum: “Did you guys ever look at each other and say, ‘I’m out, this is enough, this just isn’t worth it’?”

Brett Kavanaugh: “I’m not going to let false accusations drive us out of this process. We’re looking for a fair process where I can be heard defending my integrity, my lifelong record— my lifelong record of promoting dignity and equality for women, starting with the women who knew me when I was 14 years old. I’m not going anywhere.”

  1. He added, “So when I inevitably withdraw my name from consideration, you know it’s because the accusations are true.”

  2. Wonder if he’ll discuss all the crap in his yearbook?

  3. Seems clear to me that Kavanaugh would be calling for the FBI to investigate these scurrilous charges by now?
