The women’s advocacy group Ultraviolet played the infamous “Access Hollywood” tape on a loop in front of the Capitol on Thursday to protest President Donald Trump’s Supreme court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. The group plans to play the footage from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on the eve of the Senate’s planned cloture vote on Kavanaugh’s nomination Friday.
