The live stream has come to an end. In the video below, watch key moments from Christine Blasey Ford’s testimony.

Earlier this month, Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh seemed to be on the fast track to confirmation and a lifetime appointment to the seat vacated by Justice Anthony Kennedy. That changed when Christine Blasey Ford, a research psychologist who knew Kavanaugh in high school, told the Washington Post that Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her at a party, when she was fifteen and he was seventeen. Today, as the Senate Judiciary Committee hears testimony about the assault allegation, Kavanaugh’s path to the nation’s highest court seems less clear—and that path, John Cassidy writes, “is one that contains great peril for the Republican Party.”

Ford claimed that, thirty-six years ago, Kavanaugh held her down on a bed against her will, groped her, and covered her mouth when she tried to scream. Ford made the allegation anonymously in a letter to her congresswoman, Anna Eshoo, and Senator Dianne Feinstein, who originally declined to share the letter and later referred the matter to the F.B.I. for investigation. Ford has since come forward publicly; her lawyer has stated that she and her family have received threats since her name became public. Kavanaugh has responded with a categorical denial, saying in a statement, “I have never done anything like what the accuser describes—to her or to anyone. . . . I had no idea who was making this accusation until she identified herself.”

The accusation has spurred an outcry on both sides of the political divide. Hundreds of alumnae of the Holton-Arms School, the all-girls high school that Ford attended, signed an open letter saying her story was “all too consistent” with their own experiences. Sixty-five women who knew Kavanaugh in high school wrote to the Senate Judiciary Committee defending his character. The following Tuesday, Senator Elizabeth Warren tweeted a video of Kavanaugh giving a speech at Catholic University’s law school. “What happens at Georgetown Prep stays at Georgetown Prep,” he said of his all-boys alma mater. Warren asked in the tweet, “Is this really what America wants in its next Supreme Court Justice?”

On Sunday, Jane Mayer and Ronan Farrow reported that Deborah Ramirez, a classmate of Kavanaugh’s at Yale, alleged that, in the eighties, Kavanaugh exposed himself at a party and thrust his penis in her face. Ramirez, who had been drinking during the alleged incident, was at first hesitant to speak publicly, but ultimately said that she is confident in her recollection. She told The New Yorker, “Brett was laughing,” and that, recalling the incident, “I can still see his face.”

In the days leading up to the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing to consider Ford’s assault allegation, there have been calls to delay Kavanaugh’s confirmation vote in order to hold a full investigation. The questions about how to proceed feel especially resonant, with the nation’s recent focus on sexual misconduct and abuse. As Jeannie Suk Gersen writes, “suddenly, Kavanaugh’s nomination is displaying many of the hallmarks of the #MeToo cases that have dominated public conversation for the past year, including the presumed relevance of decades-old events, the risk of retaliation against an alleged victim, and the threat of disgrace for a prominent accused man.”
