【White Nude Taken Down】

Christine Blasey Ford delivered gut-wrenching testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee on White Nude Taken DownThursday -- and not to the most representative audience, either.

Kavanaugh's accuser told her story to 17 male Senators and just four female Senators today. Female prosecutor Rachel Mitchell was also on the panel to assist in the questioning. The eleven Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee are all white men.

All four female senators -- Senator Klobuchar of Minnesota, Senators Harris and Feinstein of California, and Senator Hirono of Hawaii -- are Democrats.
