GOP Senator Bill Cassidy of Louisiana was prepared with a quick-witted response when an anti-Kavanaugh protester confronted him on Tuesday.
The protester, Alethea Torrellas Shapiro, brought her children to the Senate hallways to “birddog” politicians over Kavanaugh’s confirmation.
“Senator Cassidy, can you please apologize to my children for ruining their futures?” Shapiro asked as Cassidy walked toward her.
Quickly taking out his earbuds, Cassidy looked directly toward the children and said, “Hey, guess what? I know your parents are using you as tools, but if in the future if somebody makes an allegation against you & there’s no proof for it, you’ll be OK.”
He then put his earbuds back in and calmly walked away.
Protester demands that GOP Senator @BillCassidy “apologize to my children for ruining their futures.”

Earlier this month, Cassidy debated with another anti-Kavanaugh protester and asked the woman, “are you OK as a person to go ahead and to accept a non-corroborated charge to destroy someone’s life?”
