There was a lot of tweeting Thursday about the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing with the calm, controlled, articulate, emotional Dr. Christine Blasey Ford and the loud, shouty, accusatory, self pitying Brett Kavanaugh. The resulting reactions have caused at least one person losing their job. That person is Kevin Jackson, a now-former Fox News contributor who went far beyond the realm of good taste, even for the network that once employed him.
Jackson went on a Twitter tirade during the hearing, in which he criticized the three women who have publicly accused the Supreme Justice hopeful of, at the very least, sexual misconduct. In one post, he decried all feminists in general and then called the three accusers “lying skanks.” The tweets are still live, by the way (at least as of this writing):
I disagree. Feminists are their own worst enemies, and enemy of women.
Also, they want men to NEVER be believed. I'm not succumbing.
TO HELL with the notion that women must be believed no matter what. Lying skanks is what these 3 women are, and we ALL know more#TeamKJ https://t.co/qGVJLTv6QI

“I disagree. Feminists are their own worst enemies, and enemy of women. Also, they want men to NEVER be believed. I’m not succumbing,” Jackson tweeted. “TO HELL with the notion that women must be believed no matter what. Lying skanks is what these 3 women are, and we ALL know more.”
He then doubled down on “skank”:
It wasn't challenged, because Leftist women are skanky for the most part.
More will be sued and made to pay for their lies

Jackson also made fun of Ford’s looks:
Wow, #ChristineFord looks rode hard and put up wet, as we say in the country. Just peeked into this FARCE.#ConfirmKavanaughNow #TeamKJ

He also claimed men have to have “the talk” with their sons, who he believes are now open game by feminists:
.#Democrats declared a WAR ON MEN long ago.#Kavanaugh FARCE is just more proof of their derangement
I have 4 sons with whom I have to have "the talk": Have 100% proof of whereabouts at ALL times#TeamKJ

And he said the real victim is Kavanaugh, not the woman whose trauma about a sexual assault at 15 was so powerful it was buried deep inside her until a 2012 therapy session:
Hey #Democrats, #Kavanaugh is what a VICTIM LOOKS LIKE!#TeamKJ

According to Variety, Jackson has since been shown the door. “Kevin Jackson has been terminated as a contributor,” a Fox News spokesperson said in a statement. “His comments on today’s hearings were reprehensible and do not reflect the values of FOX News.”
Jackson has been a Fox News contributor for several years, and has a bestseller with a book entitled Race Pimping: The Multi-Trillion Dollar Business of Liberalism. He continued tweeting his support of Kavanaugh, undeterred, even after the news broke that he’d been fired.
