MADISON DIBBLE - Independent Journal Review
The swift response from Democrats on the accusations against Judge Brett Kavanaugh has some Republicans wondering where their response to accusations against Democratic National Committee (DNC) Deputy Chair Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.) went.
California professor Christine Blasey Ford accused the Supreme Court nominee of sexually assaulting her during a high school party more than three decades ago.
Many Democrats jumped on the allegations, demanding that Americans listen to Ford's testimony and delay the vote to approve Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court.
Despite these sentiments about believing women, none of these Democrats have tweeted their support for the women who have accused Ellison of domestic violence.
The domestic abuse claims against Ellison come from his ex-girlfriend, Karen Monahan, as well as 911 calls from another ex-girlfriend.
DNC Chair Tom Perez called for a thorough investigation of Kavanaugh, but his investigation into the claims against Ellison seems to have disappeared.
This apparent hypocrisy did not go unnoticed:
Ellison is still the DNC deputy chair and has the Democratic nomination for attorney general in Minnesota. According to a recent KSTP poll, Ellison and his competitor, Doug Wardlow, are tied.
