The White House and Senate officials knew of this other accusation last week. It’s just only now leaking to the public

Debbie Ramirez is accusing Kavanaugh of sexual assault when they were both freshmen at Yale. Kavanaugh was over 18 and would have lied under oath already if this is true. There are others, including at least one male, backing up Ms Ramirez story at Yale. The accusation is that Kavanaugh stuck his p3nis in her face when she was drunk, during a drinking game at a dorm party. He and another male laughed about it. It's in the New Yorker as posted below by uggabugga. This story will be all over the news tomorrow.


Kavanaugh is toast.

I wonder how much they are paying this one and how many more they have lined up? Dems have very deep pockets with many being elitists and all

More woman starting to come out. A Yale grad and Michael Avenetti (Story's Lawyer) says he has clients willing to open up about Kavanaugh.


Time for him to withdraw.

"In a statement, two of those male classmates who Ramirez alleged were involved the incident, the wife of a third male student she said was involved, and three other classmates, Dino Ewing, Louisa Garry and Dan Murphy, disputed Ramirez’s account of events"



Lmao!

What remains to be seen is how many people think it's a serious enough incident to make a difference. I don't see this going well for Republicans OR Democrats. R's will be flirting with danger if they keep trying to push him through, D's are going to have highly motivated and energized Republicans showing up for the midterms if he's removed from consideration.
The problem is not with Kavanaugh and if the Republicans cannot confirm him, the will not be able to confirm whoever the next person is either. The Democrats will lie, slander and smear literally anyone the Republicans nominate at this point.

If they abandon Kavanaugh, they will be conceding that the Republican party has run it's course and that there is no moral justification in them continuing to exist as a national party. I do not believe they will do that.

Good luck smearing Barrett. She has some moral issues that they’ll hate but I don’t think she has anything like this. I think we need to face that Kavanaugh was a wild child in his younger years

Exactly. And, mother of a God, who would voluntarily allow themselves or their family to be put through such an ordeal anyway? If he is not confirmed I want senators held to the same standard, starting with Corey Booker.

You know that's not going to happen. If Dems are successful at smearing anyone and everyone that is nominated by Republicans then we spend the next 2 years without anyone new on the Supreme Court. If Ginsberg resigns or dies while on the bench, then there will be even one fewer.
