The ongoing confirmation process for Supreme Court nominee Judge Brett Kavanaugh recently hit a snag over sexual misconduct allegations that date back as far as 36 years to when he was in high school. Kavanaugh denies all of the accusations.
Bill O'Reilly told Newsmax TV Monday that he believes the issue of abortion is behind Democrats' opposition to Kavanaugh and the allegations that have been leveled at him.
"The Democratic Party and the progressive left is sending a message: if you oppose unfettered abortion, as I do, we're gonna destroy you. We're gonna turn American women against you because you are an abuser of women if you do not support unfettered abortion," O'Reilly said. "That's what this is all about."
