TEHRAN (Tasnim) – US protesters demanded impeachment of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh on the first anniversary of his confirmation during a gathering in front of the US Supreme Court in Washington, DC, on Sunday.

Demonstrators also protested in front of the house of US Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.

Videos published on social media shows people chanting slogans ‘Hey hey ho ho, Kavanaugh’s got to go’ and ‘Tell me what democracy looks like, this is what democracy looks like’, holding different banners with some reading ‘Impeach the rapists’ and ‘We demand an investigation of Kavanaugh now’.

US Representative for Massachusetts in Congress, Ayanna Pressley, addressed the crowds, saying: “Kavanaugh may have that seat, for now. But what you, what we are fighting for is so much bigger than one insecure man blinded by his privilege.”

Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh was confirmed by the Senate last year following several sexual assault allegations hearings.
