Democratic Hawaii Senator Mazie Hirono claimed on Sunday that there was no corroborating evidence to back up Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s claim that he never assaulted Christine Blasey Ford and that there was corroborating evidence supporting Ford’s story.

Appearing on CNN’s “State of the Union” with host Dana Bash, Hirono said that anyone who watched Ford’s testimony “would conclude that she was being very truthful” and that Ford “recollects with 100 percent accuracy is that Judge Kavanaugh, Brett Kavanaugh, assaulted her.”
