Bruwin, one of the most scary trends from the media is how they focused on the respective "performances" of Christine Ford and Brett Kavanaugh.

When Brett responded in a way that didn't reflect absolute stoicism, the media had a field day.

Never mind the fact that they've been fanning the flames of the radical left and calling him a "rapist." Never mind the fact that he and his family have been constantly harassed with death threats and can't even walk in public without left-wing protesters shouting and spitting in their faces.

They create this environment of hostility, and then they express righteous indignation over the otherwise understandable reaction to this craziness.

"Oh, but this isn't a criminal trial! We don't have to prove that he's guilty!" says the mob.

That's why we have a Bill of Rights. That's why the government was explicitly set up from day one to protect against the tyranny of the majority.

Anyone who doesn't understand this is going to throw their rights away to the next charismatic leader. And it isn't going to be pretty, even compared to today.
