As Judge Brett Kavanaugh and Christine Blasey Ford testify today before the Senate Judiciary Committee regarding Ford’s accusation that Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her at a high school gathering in 1982, people across the country are gathering together to watch the hearing.
Many viewers have uploaded photos of groups of people gathering around television screens on in offices, classrooms, and public spaces to hear Ford tell her story.
Here are a few of those amazing images:

Sound waves from NYSE trading post TVs resound in unison at higher than usual decibel levels as traders watched Christine Blasey Ford testify. Could decipher nearly every word of the hearing anywhere I walked, competing only with ringing phones at times. #KavanaughHearings pic.twitter.com/6UREse8hjW

Kavanaugh is up for a vacant seat in the U.S. Supreme Court. The judge appeared to have cleared his earlier nomination hearing before the committee, with a vote in his favor likely, but news of Ford’s allegations sent the nomination process into chaos.
Other women have since come forward with their own allegations against Kavanaugh.
His future with the Supreme Court depends on whether or not Republican senators will decline to vote for him in light of the allegations against him.
