00:00I just want to say to the men of this country, just shut up and step up.
00:04Do the right thing for a change.
00:19Guess who's perpetuating all of these kinds of actions?
00:22It's the men. Okay, you can see I'm a little upset by this, you know, the unfairness of it.
00:30I expect all of us, the enlightened men in our country, because there must be millions of men out there
00:50who are enlightened who also will rise up to say we cannot continue the victimization
00:57and the smearing of someone like Dr. Ford.
01:13And so this whole thing is, you have the power of the White House, Kavanaugh over here,
01:19and this totally disadvantages Dr. Ford. Not only does it disadvantage her, but it victimizes her.
01:36It's time for all of us to say, end this kind of treatment of people who come forward
01:42when they don't need to, to talk about very painful parts of their life experiences,
01:49because they truly care about who sits on the Supreme Court in a lifetime appointment
01:56to make decisions that will impact all of our lives.
01:59And I want to thank Dr. Ford. I commend her courage. I believe her.
