In Washington, Garten worked in the White House while earning an MBA[2] at George Washington University; Jeffrey worked in the State Department, completing his graduate studies. Garten was originally employed as a low-level government aide, and climbed the political ladder to the Office of Management and Budget. Eventually she was assigned the position of budget analyst, which entailed writing the nuclear energy budget and policy papers on nuclear centrifuge plants for Presidents Gerald Ford and Jimmy Carter.[10][11]
Another person claimed by Christine Blasey Ford to have attended a gathering during which she claims she was sexually assaulted by Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh denied any recollection of having attended the party.
In an email to the Senate Judiciary Committee on Saturday, Leland Ingham Keyser, a former classmate at the Holton-Arms all-girls school, said she doesnt know Kavanugh or remember being at the party with him.
Simply put, Ms. Keyser does not know Mr. Kavanagh and she has no recollection of ever being at a party or gathering where he was present, with, or without, Dr. Ford., Keysers lawyer Howard J Walsh who communicated with the committee on behalf of Keyser.
Politico reported that the email was in response to a letter from a lawyer for the GOP majority staff, which said: “I understand that you have been identified as an individual who was in attendance at a party that occurred circa 1982 described in a recent Washington Post article.”
In his 2015 memoir I Should Be Dead: My Life Surviving Politics, TV, and Addiction, Beckel described meeting Keyser while playing golf at Columbia Country Club Golf Course in Maryland with two friends. He had no idea that she was already a pro golfer when she asked if she could play with them.
When Beckel saw that she was using a mens tee, Beckel wrote that he asked her if she ought to use a ladies tee. She looked at me like, You dumb sonofabitch, and then, ba-boom, she blew past me by sixty yards on the first drive, Beckel wrote.
