"This is Married Women's Sex Party (2025)ridiculous and from the Twilight Zone."

In a Friday tweet, Anne Serling -- an author herself -- pointed out that her father wouldn't have appreciated the present day face of the GOP, which has descended into mudslinging and a partisan gaming of the system.

"My father believed in decency, integrity, and justice," Serling wrote. "Had he written this, I assure you--there would indeed be a further FBI investigation along with some cosmic justice."

The cosmic justice she spoke of may still come, now that the FBI has reopened its background check on Kavanaugh. (Serling's tweet posted just a few hours before that happened.)
