Desert_FoxSenate Democrats reportedly investigating second sexual misconduct allegation against Brett Kavanaugh
A second woman has come forward to accuse Supreme Court justice nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct.
Deborah Ramirez, 53, told the New Yorker that Kavanaugh exposed himself at a college dorm party when they were both studying at Yale, “thrust his penis in her face, and caused her to touch it without her consent as she pushed him away.”
“Brett was laughing,” she told the magazine, which posted the story Sunday night. “I can still see his face, and his hips coming forward, like when you pull up your pants.”
Ramirez claims that a male student brought out a fake plastic penis at the party, where the group was playing a drinking game. At one point, she claims another male student exposed himself and other students encouraged her to “kiss it.”
“I wasn’t going to touch a penis until I was married,” Ramirez, a devout Catholic, said. “I was embarrassed and ashamed and humiliated.”
During the incident, she claims, she heard another male student shouting about Kavanaugh.
“Somebody yelled down the hall, ‘Brett Kavanaugh just put his penis in Debbie’s face,’” she told the New Yorker. “It was his full name. I don’t think it was just ‘Brett.’ And I remember hearing and being mortified that this was out there.”
Another Yale student, who chose to remain anonymous, said he was “100% sure” that he had heard about Kavanaugh allegedly exposing himself to Ramirez at the time.
Kavanaugh denied Ramirez’s allegations.
“This alleged event from 35 years ago did not happen,” he told the New Yorker. “The people who knew me then know that this did not happen, and have said so. This is a smear, plain and simple. I look forward to testifying on Thursday about the truth, and defending my good name — and the reputation for character and integrity I have spent a lifetime building — against these last-minute allegations.”
At least two Democratic senators are investigating the allegations, according to the New Yorker, and at least two others know about the claims, as well as some senior Republican staffers. After hearing the claims, Senate Republicans allegedly tried to push up the timing of Kavanaugh’s confirmation vote, which was already postponed once.
“This 35-year-old, uncorroborated claim is the latest in a coordinated smear campaign by the Democrats designed to tear down a good man,” White House spokeswoman Kerri Kupec said in a statement.
“This claim is denied by all who were said to be present and is wholly inconsistent with what many women and men who knew Judge Kavanaugh at the time in college say. The White House stands firmly behind Judge Kavanaugh.”
Ramirez’s claims follow those of Christine Blasey Ford, who claims Kavanaugh tried to rape her at a high school party they both attended.
Ford, who was 15 at the time, told the Washington Post that she went upstairs at the party to use the bathroom, but was pushed into a bedroom and on top of a bed. There, she claims, Kavanaugh, then 17, attacked her. He allegedly groped her and tried to pull off her clothes and a one-piece bathing suit — all while holding his hand over her mouth so she couldn’t scream.
“I thought he might inadvertently kill me,” she said. “He was trying to attack me and remove my clothing.”
Mark Judge, Kavanaugh’s high school friend, was allegedly in the room during the attempted assault.
Kavanaugh has denied Ford’s allegations.
“I categorically and unequivocally deny this allegation,” he said in a statement distributed by the White House. “I did not do this back in high school or at any time.”
Kavanaugh and Ford are scheduled to testify in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee Thursday.
Michael Avenatti, who shot into the spotlight for representing Stormy Daniels, says he represents another woman “with credible information regarding Judge Kavanaugh and Mark Judge,” but has not revealed any details.
OK Lindsey Graham, are you still so sure you’re going to vote for Kavanaugh?
