Ellen Degeneres tweeted support for Christine Blasey Ford yesterday.
Ford told her story in the Senate about how she was sexually assaulted by Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh yesterday.
Since she has come forward, Ford has received death threats, been harassed, and been attacked constantly in the media. She was forced to leave her home out of fear for her safety.
She also got Ellen’s “awe.”

Dr. Ford, I am in awe of your bravery.

It’s understandable why Ellen would commend Ford, since she has also been the victim of sexual harassment or sexual assault.
