Matt Damon, long-time friend of Harvey Weinstein, has targeted Brett Kavanaugh in his latest ‘Saturday Night Live’ sketch. “I’m here tonight because of a sham, a political con job orchestrated by the Clintons, George Soros–Kathy Griffin and Mr Ronan Sinatra,” Damon said as he parodied the Supreme Court nominee. “Now, I’m usually an optimist.
