The Judiciary Committee Is Reviewing Third Sexual Assault Allegation Against Kavanaugh

Republicans are trying to speed the Kavanaugh nomination through the confirmation process, but they can’t outrun the mounting allegations from multiple women of sexual misconduct by Brett Kavanaugh. Avenatti and his client are demanding an FBI investigation. Dr. Christine Blasey Ford is demanding an FBI investigation. Deborah Ramirez is demanding an FBI investigation. How many more women have to come forward before Republicans stop this sham process and tell Trump to have the FBI reopen Kavanaugh‘s background check.

All the women and corroborating witnesses can’t be lying. The sober virgin version of Brett Kavanaugh is being exposed as a fraud. Kavanaugh has already lied under oath to the Senate. His has no credibility. Women have come forward with credible allegations. If the White House won’t pull the plug on Kavanaugh‘s nomination, Senate Republicans must vote him down.
