Charles Ludington, Lynne Brookes and Elizabeth Swisher attended Yale University from 1983 to 1987 with Supreme Court nominee Brett M. Kavanaugh.
We were college classmates and drinking buddies with Supreme Court nominee Brett M. Kavanaugh. In the past week, all three of us decided separately to respond to questions from the media regarding Brett’s honesty, or lack thereof. In each of our cases, it was his public statements during a Fox News TV interview and his sworn testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee that prompted us to speak out.
We each asserted that Brett lied to the Senate by stating, under oath, that he never drank to the point of forgetting what he was doing. We said, unequivocally, that each of us, on numerous occasions, had seen Brett stumbling drunk to the point that it would be impossible for him to state with any degree of certainty that he remembered everything that he did when drunk.
Since coming forward, we each have received numerous angry messages accusing us of attempting to ruin a man’s life because of his drunken antics as a college student. In fact, none of us condemned Brett for his frequent drunkenness. We drank too much in college as well. It is true that Brett acknowledged he sometimes drank “too many beers.” But he also stated that he never drank to the point of blacking out.
All of us went to Yale, whose motto is “Lux et Veritas” (Light and Truth). Brett also belonged to a Yale senior secret society called Truth and Courage. We believe that Brett neither tells the former nor embodies the latter. For this reason, we believe that Brett Kavanaugh should not sit on the nation’s highest court.

The washington pest once again embarrasses the 1st Amendment. It is a crime against nature that even one small sick twig is murdered to provide them with newsprint.
where were you a few days ago , drunk ?
Not a single woman has spoken or said a thing, (myself a woman), I could support......nothing!.... They're all a HUGE embarrassment to the female population. They will never recover from how stupid, foolish and idiotic they have shown themselves to be....never. It was never about them, it isn't now, Nor will it be tomorrow nor there after....
You can bet they’re Democrats just helping the angry mob...and counting the money they’ll get.
About time we had a Justice to represent beer drinkers!
So what they are saying is he could have been messing with a Unicorn, and wouldn’t remember.
Yeah, this is a pressing matter. It’s so pressing they’ve waited until the day of the vote to come up with it.
Old drinking buddies don’t do this.
Old asshole acquaintances do.
None of them are willing to state that he passed out drunk. That says a lot.
I think most “frat boys” and heavy drinkers as the say he was would have had at least one episode like that.
Can you imagine the bitterness that must exist in these three liberals to want to be a part of this type of character assassination? Some “friends.”
If Kav is so bad after his escapades in high school and college, how bad a person am I? Me and my buddies were much worse and I can guarantee you I have better morals than 99.9% of DC.
I must add, I went to a prep school, and went to a reunion this summer. I was the turd in the punch bowl. Everybody is a Lib., to find a few that would say this would be easy.
I’ll bet Kavanaugh never passes out at a State of the Union speech
It is certainly the predatory media and grease of politics. That being said, i have life-long friends with differing political bents than I. The idea that one of us after near fifty years would say such a thing in a highly charged atmosphere is revolting.
Remember, Trump will not always be POTUS. We need this sort of Judge to help carry on his work well into the future. Vote dammit! Vote!.
Whether or not he was drunk in college—and who hasn’t been?—how do they know what he remembers?
Guess Soros is going all out. Just a guess as to who is behind this.
Ye Senators who are without college drunkeness, cast the first stone.
Obviously Kavanaugh’s “drinking problem” didn’t prevent him.from graduating from Yale,completing law school and becoming a successful and until this recent feces fest, a repected jurist. Gee anyone remember Ted Kennedy?
The next time a drunk guy hugs you while sobbing “You’re my best friend ever,” take it with a grain of salt.
“Liberals too, without a doubt.”
Who voted for the dope smoking, cocaine using, six-pack before class a$$hat ineligible British subject, possible Indonesian citizen Obama.
“. . . prompted us to speak out.”
Where?
“We each asserted . . . “
Where?
“. . . that Brett lied to the Senate by stating, under oath, that he never drank to the point of forgetting what he was doing. We said, unequivocally . . . “
Where?
The elite leftists can afford to disparage college beer drinking - most were doing lines of coke.
