Someone tell the GOP all the old white men yelling about Kavanaugh isn't cute
Breaking: Old white guys are yelling on TV again.
Republican senators (yes, them) gathered on Capitol Hill to make individual statements about the FBI investigation into Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. During the press conference, the group of overwhelmingly old white men ranted about the "public circus-like atmosphere" and called the hearings about Kavanaugh allegedly sexually assaulting Dr. Christine Blasey Ford a "search and destroy mission."

Meanwhile, Twitter users criticized the way the press conference looked, given its subject matter: After all, it's not a great look when a group of guys continues to aggressively push for an accused sexual assaulter to land a spot on a Supreme Court which, by the way, has the power to limit women's rights.
