    Democrats hit a new low in their crusade against Kavanaugh

    In the letter, originally sent to Rep. Anna Eshoo (D-Calif.), a woman allegedly claims she was the victim of some Kavanaugh “sexual misconduct” … back in high school.

    As Feinstein explains, “That individual strongly requested confidentiality, declined to come forward or press the matter further, and I have honored that decision.”

    Except that, after the Wednesday meeting, she did other Dems’ bidding by passing the letter on to “federal investigative authorities.” And some Democrat(s) quickly clued in the media.

    It’s an extremely safe bet that political operatives are now pressuring the woman to go public — against her express wishes. That, after all, is what Democrats did to Anita Hill a quarter-century ago.

    Absent that, no investigator can do a thing — the allegation runs back at least 35 years, to when Kavanaugh was a teenager. Which is surely why Feinstein did nothing in the months after she got the letter.

    The honorable thing would’ve been to respect the woman’s wishes and keep quiet, rather than feed her to the partisan wolves.

    As for the Democrats who pushed Feinstein into breaking that confidence, and then anonymously fed the “news” to the press: Congratulations, you just sank to a new low.

      Change up a few names and it sounds like how the team Kavanaugh was part of got Monika Lewinsky's friend to secretly record her talking about her affair with Clinton and then proceeded to force Lewinsky into the public eye.

        Do you take special drugs to come up with this crap?

          Here you go. Specifically:

          The White House decried the move as a desperate, last-minute campaign to tear down a qualified nominee, and the FBI does not plan on investigating the matter, which erupted publicly as Democrats complained that Kavanaugh is unfit for the high court.

          Although upon further investigation, this information is credited to "a person familiar with the matter" (i.e. anonymous source) so I may have jumped the gun a bit on declaring the part definite. I think the rest of my message is accurate, however.

            Yeah, thanks -- I found it elsewhere too.

              That all sounds fishy. What was the point of writing the letter if she didn't want it to be made public? Smells like a setup.

                It's called having some knowledge of US politics and recent political history, you should try it some time.

                  Starlight, sweetie baby honey pot, Clinton was a sitting US President who was MARRIED, having an affair with an underling less than HALF his age in the WORKPLACE....

                  As opposed to, apparently, two kids in HIGH SCHOOL!

                  You are demonstrating your incredible ignorance of US politics. I mean --- sheeesh, turtle poop knows more about US politics than you do.

                    Yeah, it's like, "how can I take this very sketchy information from DECADES ago with which I was sworn to secrecy, and force it out into the open....."?

                    But, hey, Starlight buys it!

                      So.. the horrible deed is that 17 year old K and a buddy pranked a girl by locking her in a room and making her feel "uncomfortable", but then she was allowed to leave?

                      Is that IT????

                        At this point I buy that pretty much all Republican politicans and operatives are criminals and rapists and serial adulterers because they've proved it over and over and over and over and over again. So this does not surprise me in the least. Par for the course. Specifically, par for the Donald Trump course.

                              They were only allegations of inappropriate sexual activity made by a woman against Kavanaugh, why would Trump of all people, worry about that?

                                Yet I'll still add that this was after making a big deal signing into law making it illegal sexual harassment for a boss to have an affair with a subordinate.
