THE NEW YORK TIMES WAS UNABLE TO CORROBORATE SECOND KAVANAUGH ACCUSER’S STORY
The Daily Caller ^ | 10:12 AM 09/24/2018 | Amber Athey | Media and Breaking News Editor

The New York Times reported on Sunday that it was unable to corroborate the claims of a second accuser who says Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh exposed himself to her in college.

Deborah Ramirez alleges that Kavanaugh thrust his penis into her face while she was drunk at a Yale University dormitory party. The New Yorker ran with Ramirez’s allegation on Sunday despite being unable to produce any firsthand witnesses or confirm that Kavanaugh was at the party where the incident was said to have occurred.

The New York Times noted several paragraphs deep in a report that it chose not to report on Ramirez’s allegation because of a lack of corroborating evidence.

“The Times had interviewed several dozen people over the past week in an attempt to corroborate her story, and could find no one with firsthand knowledge,” the NYT’s Sheryl Gay Stolberg and Nicholas Fandos reported. “Ms. Ramirez herself contacted former Yale classmates asking if they recalled the incident and told some of them that she could not be certain Mr. Kavanaugh was the one who exposed himself.”

The Times interviewed dozens to corroborate 2nd allegation against Kavanaugh and could find no one with firsthand knowledge. Ramirez told ex-classmates she couldn’t be certain Kavanaugh was the one who exposed himself. ⁦@SherylNYT⁩ ⁦@npfandoshttps://t.co/lGVc4hJzEU

NYT also noted, “The New Yorker did not confirm with other eyewitnesses that Judge Kavanaugh was at the party.”

In an interview with CBS’ “This Morning” on Monday, Jane Mayer, a co-author on The New Yorker piece, admitted that they had no firsthand witnesses who could confirm Ramirez’s account.

A third accuser will likely involve him peaking under a classmate’s dress when they were in kindergarten.

Deborah Ramirez suffers from a really overactive fantasy world, in which the election of Donald Trump to the Presidency of the United States is somehow reversed, and Hillary (with the blessing of both the Soros shadow government apparatus and the Russian Federation) assumes the office if Trump can be summarily removed from office.

“IN-conceivable” was a term often repeated by Vizzini in “The Princess Bride”, to which Inigo Montoya replied, “You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.”

So much of imagined “history” just never happened.

Hasn’t stopped ABC radio news, vile scum that they are, from saying every half hour that Judge Kavanaugh is now facing accusations from two women.

The New York Times is mad because this essentially proves the Fake News claim. They want their media partners to be a little more discreet in their false stories. This one is blatantly sloppy.

The times has no standards.

During the Gulf war, they released GW Bush’s war plans which could have or did get some of our guys killed.

And now they won’t touch this?

something’s up here.

From Paul Sperry’s piece in the NY Post:

“This spring, Hillary Clinton’s former campaign press secretary Brian Fallon hired one of Feinstein’s top aides on the Judiciary Committee to help tank Trump’s Supreme Court picks from the outside. Together, he and Feinstein’s aide — former deputy general counsel Paige Herwig — launched a liberal nonprofit group called Demand Justice to lead the left’s attack on GOP nominees....”

“Blasey Ford’s lead attorney, Debra Katz, at the same time heads a leftist advocacy group funded by liberal megadonor George Soros, who also is funding Demand Justice, which has raised $5 million to sink Trump’s high court picks...”

https://nypost.com/2018/09/22/how-feinstein-is-conspiring-to-destroy-kavanaugh/

So Soros funded “Demand Justice” last spring no doubt got an email list of possible Kavenaugh classmates, and probably emailed each asking for rumors. Some responded with rumors, made up or not. Then they went digging, and set this whole thing up. Spent 6 days working on the drunk Peurto Rican anti-Trump social justice warrior.

Remember the name, Soros funded, and Feinstein staffer organized, “Demand Justice.” Behind it all. Founded 5 months ago, to kill the next SC Judge.

Every TV channel, national as well as local news are droning right along, presenting it as a done-deal fact. Can't get away from it.

But they made sure to report the story by reporting why they didn’t report the story.

Remember.....for Kavanaugh to sail thru, they only need about 5 iffy votes.

This isn’t about swaying the entire voting public or winning the battle with the slimy media. It’s just 5 measly votes.

Don’t lose sight of this. That’s why Grassley and the GOP have played this correctly. Collins, Murkowski, Flake, and a few others have been provided cover by the rational way this incredibly irrational circus has been handled.

No, this is the dildo chick

Creepy Porn Lawyer claims to have women who witnessed Kavanaugh drugging women and lining up men to gang rape them. I think Creepy Porn Lawyer watches too much porn.
