Live stream: Brett Kavanaugh participates in swearing-in ceremony at White House

Brett Kavanaugh will be sworn in as the newest Associate Justice of the Supreme Court during a ceremony with President Trump at the White House on Monday evening at 7 p.m. ET.

Kavanaugh's nomination became a major battle when Dr. Christine Blasey Ford made accusations that Kavanaugh had sexually assaulted her when the two were in high school in Bethesda, Md.

After a tense set of testimonies from Ford and Kavanaugh, the Senate Judiciary Committee moved his nomination forward for a full Senate vote, where he was confirmed on Saturday by a 50-48 vote.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said after the final Senate vote that Kavanaugh's appointment had a "good impact" for Republicans. "Our base is fired up," he said. 

"It’s a good day for America and an important day for the Senate," McConnell said, adding the division throughout this process was something the Senate and country would move past.
