Ronan Farrow: Accuser claims Kavanaugh tried to force himself on her (tr)

Congratulations to Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett, I guess.

No, no, wait. The offense alleged here is serious, much more than Kavanaugh and a pal locking a female classmate in a room or whatever, as was claimed yesterday. And Farrow’s track record (he co-wrote the piece with Obama apologist Jane Mayer) will lend it a patina of credibility to readers.

But the evidence is thin as can be.

The woman, who has asked not to be identified, first approached Democratic lawmakers in July, shortly after Trump nominated Kavanaugh. The allegation dates back to the early nineteen-eighties, when Kavanaugh was a high-school student at Georgetown Preparatory School, in Bethesda, Maryland, and the woman attended a nearby high school. In the letter, the woman alleged that, during an encounter at a party, Kavanaugh held her down, and that he attempted to force himself on her. She claimed in the letter that Kavanaugh and a classmate of his, both of whom had been drinking, turned up music that was playing in the room to conceal the sound of her protests, and that Kavanaugh covered her mouth with his hand. She was able to free herself. Although the alleged incident took place decades ago and the three individuals involved were minors, the woman said that the memory had been a source of ongoing distress for her, and that she had sought psychological treatment as a result.

In a statement, Kavanaugh said, “I categorically and unequivocally deny this allegation. I did not do this back in high school or at any time.”

Kavanaugh’s classmate said of the woman’s allegation, “I have no recollection of that.”

He’s not the only classmate who has no recollection of it

30 billion annoymous accusers, who have asked not to be identified, have come forward to me to report how Diane Feinstein tied them up and tortured thier puppies to death in front of them. While the weight of evidence of a single annoymous accuser might be thin, the sheer depravity of Feinsteins actions, the number of puppies she viscously murdered, and the sheer number of the anonymous witnesses is enough to prove she is 6000 percent guilty and should step down from Senate and give her seat to somebody we wont make up allegations against because we like their politics. If it goes to another leftist the blions of winesses are all prepared to tell me that the replacement was with her helping hold the puppies down.

And/or she realizes the ridiculousness of it from outside the leftist extremist circle.
