Nearly one year after Justice Brett Kavanaugh was accused of sexual misconduct during an eleventh-hour attempt to derail his nomination, a New York Times “bombshell” article was just published alleging more sexual misconduct. The piece, based on an upcoming book on the subject, was updated a day later with a rather important note that undercut the previous day’s claim: The woman in question has no recollection of the alleged assault.

Still, the intended damage had been done. Several Democratic presidential candidates such as Kamala Harris and Elizabeth Warren (but notably, not Joe Biden) called for Kavanaugh’s impeachment. Meanwhile, the usual suspects on the Left bloviated about how a sexual deviant is supposedly seated on the highest court in the land.
