Actor Jim Carrey drew a portrait of the “hateful and heinous” face of Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S. C.) during Thursday’s Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, saying his anger toward Christine Blasey Ford was a disgrace.
“Ever wonder why women don’t report sexual abuse?” Carrey tweeted on Friday. “Look no further than the hideous and hateful face of Lindsey Graham who offered nothing but anger and absolute disdain to Dr. Christine Blasey Ford following her courageous, and very credible, testimony.”
“Talk about ‘a disgrace,’ ” he added.
Carrey’s portrait of the South Carolina Republican came one day after Ford testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee that Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her in the 1980s.
Kavanaugh denied the allegations in an additional hearing.
A visibly angry Graham exploded during the hearing, yelling at Democrats and accusing them of trying to destroy Kavanaugh’s life.
Graham called the fight over Kavanaugh’s confirmation the most “unethical sham” and “despicable thing” he’s seen since he’s been in politics.
“And if you really wanted to know the truth you sure as hell wouldn’t have done what you’ve done to this guy,” he said.
Carrey also took at aim Kavanaugh and Republicans earlier this month.
He released a portrait of Kavanaugh in judge’s robes wearing a mask over his face, his suggested “new uniform” for the Supreme Court.
“Colleges care more about donors than the victims of on-campus rape,” Carrey tweeted along with the picture. “That’s why women don’t report it and why ENTITLED LITTLE SHITS like Injustice Kavanaugh get to party and pillage their way to the Supreme Court. I’d like to suggest a new uniform for the highest court in the land.”
The comedian is a frequent critic of President Trump and often releases portraits of high-level administration officials including press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders and senior adviser Jared Kushner.
