Went back to the transcript to read Judge Kavanaugh's then-answers to the Ramirez allegations. I'll save you a step and post the replies in sequence here ...
First to ask was Senator Diane Feinstein
Republican Counsel Rachel Mitchell followed
Senator John Cornyn had more a comment than a question ...
Cornyn continued ...
Senator Hatch asked his own questions rather than defer to Counsel Mitchell
This next is from Senator Ted Cruz
John Kennedy, R-LA:
Senator John Kennedy again in summation, and that was that

There's nothing furtive about Trump. He relies for self-protection not on his own concealment, but on the omerta of his supporters and the weakness of his opponents
He asks Russia to hack emails on a public platform. He tells the press yes he asked Ukraine to investigate Biden. He collects pay-offs not in some lonely wood in the suburbs, but in big building on Pennsylvania Avenue with his name on the front door.
Trump challenges America with the same question Boss Tweed challenged New Yorkers when they complained about his rule: "Well - what are you going to do about it?"

#Kavanaugh tweet storm beginning now:

1/
Today’s confirmation of Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court is the most significant judicial victory for conservatives of my lifetime. All conservatives should thank @SenMajLdr & @ChuckGrassley for their extraordinary leadership through a grueling battle.

2/
Moving the court from 5-4 liberal to 5-4 conservative will have sweeping ramifications for the country. Most importantly, it will restore the rule of law & the Constitution. Democrat efforts to end run state legislatures, Congress & the executive branch will now be fruitless.

Sen @JeffFlake said Kavanaugh wouldn't be confirmed if he lied to the Senate. Well @WeDemandJustice counts 20+: medium.com/@demandjustice…

Needs more attn, so I made a thread of 20+ sources proving his lies. Cont⤵

Lie: Kavanaugh said “When this allegation first arose, I welcomed any kind of investigation."
Fact: “Kavanaugh did not publicly welcome an investigation in two public statements denying the allegations and an in-depth interview with Fox News."

2/
 Lie: Kavanaugh said he “never attended a gathering like the one Dr. Ford describes in her allegation.”
Fact: Kavanaugh admitted that his calendars “show a few weekday gatherings at friends’ houses after a workout or just to meet up and have some beers. washingtonpost.com/politics/2018/…

I'm betting that the FBI is in the process of getting a hold of these people now, if they haven't already. There was some clarification necessary, which came from Trump today regarding how far the probe could go.
3/"NBC News reached out to Berchem for comment after obtaining a copy of a memo she wrote about the text messages. In a statement to NBC News, Berchem, a partner in the law firm Akin Gump, said: “I understand that President Trump and the U.S. Senate have ordered an FBI

I'm a sociologist who studies adolescent sexual violence. On this thread, I will be live tweeting the #Kavanaugh hearing, chiming in with sociological insights and research findings.
Full disclosure--I will probably step away for parts of it. While many conservatives have cast feminists as people who rejoice at allegations of sexual assault against powerful men, this is a painful process for us. We know survivors. We are survivors. And I will need breaks.
It does not bode well that the beginning of this hearing is starting with equating #Kavanaugh and #Ford's experiences with harassment following Dr. Ford's allegations. They are absolutely not the same.
