Senior Republican staffers also learned of the allegation last week and, in conversations with The New Yorker, expressed concern about its potential impact on Kavanaugh’s nomination. Soon after, Senate Republicans issued renewed calls to accelerate the timing of a committee vote.
The big thing I noticed in his statement is that it’s all about self protection. It emphasizes a lack of knowledge on the committee’s part...not innocence on the nominee’s.tragabigzanda wrote:my immediate reaction is that this headline very late on a Sunday night is a test to see if they can spin a narrative of "Ok we'll withdraw his nomination but it's the Dems' fault for withholding information that we never had"*

Grassley: Dems 'withheld information' on new Kavanaugh allegation
https://thehill.com/business-a-lobbying ... llegations
Montgomery County investigators confirmed Monday they’re aware of a potential sexual assault complaint in the county against former Georgetown Prep student and Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.
While investigators weren’t specific and spoke on background, they said they are looking at allegations against Kavanaugh during his senior year in high school after an anonymous witness came forward this weekend.
This would potentially bring the number to four women accusing Kavanaugh of wrongdoing and comes after Deborah Ramirez, a former Yale college student, stepped forward this weekend to accuse Kavanaugh of exposing himself to her in college, and after attorney Michael Avenatti tweeted out a message saying he represents a woman with “credible information regarding Judge Kavanaugh and Mark Judge.”
Provided Democrats get the numbers they need (and the White House) in 2020, this would seem to me to be a near-certainty.Green Habit wrote:Republicans have to be aware that Democrats are going to be more eager to pack the court if they do plow it through.tragabigzanda wrote:Plowing right through is what these guys do best.
I know like twenty girls who said they were raped by him in grade school. This brings the potential rape count to twenty-four!McParadigm wrote:Montgomery County investigators confirmed Monday they’re aware of a potential sexual assault complaint in the county against former Georgetown Prep student and Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.

Montgomery County’s Prosecuting Attorney John McCarthy confirmed this weekend he would direct the Montgomery County Police Department to investigate any complaint brought against Kavanaugh, “But no complaint has been filed or forwarded to this office,” he explained.
Montgomery County Police Chief Tom Manger said, “We are prepared to investigate if the victim wants to report to us, and we can determine it occurred in the county.”
