This sounds like a joke or a prank. Why would she even bring it up to Feinstein in a letter. 50 years later?

Now they are claiming attempted rape...
Details on a claim of sexual assault allegedly perpetrated by Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh are now coming to light, thanks to out journalist Ronan Farrow and his colleague Jane Mayer of The New Yorker.
Reports on Thursday indicated Senator Dianne Feinstein forwarded a sexual misconduct claim leveled against Kavanaugh to the FBI. Farrow and Mayer now offer details on what exactly Kavanaugh is accused of.
In a letter first sent to California congresswoman Anna Eshoo, and then forwarded to Feinstein, a woman says that Kavanaugh and a male classmate of his at a Jesuit high school in Maryland attempted to sexually assault her at a party in the early 1980s.

"thanks to out journalist"
eta never mind. I thought they misspelled "our" -- They meant he is "out" as gay.
This seems to be a pretty low rent rag judging by the other articles. No real source to the information other than some implied connection to the letter that Feinstein had. How would this low budget reporter get that?Last edited by Sparko; 09-14-2018, 01:51 PM.

OK looks like that rag just stole the news from the New Yorker and tried to make it sound like their reporter had something to do with it when all he did was copy it from the New Yorker.

Okay, so if it has an actual allegation, that's at least something. Before people were in a tizzy about a letter they didn't have information on. That said, the story of what the letter actually says seems to keep shifting slightly and information on its content seems to largely come from anonymous sources, so it's hard to be sure about exactly what it says without seeing it.
So ultimately, the only bit of evidence here is an unreleased letter written by an anonymous person that apparently accuses Kavanaugh of sexual assault in high school. I have difficulty finding this credible based on that.
Additionally, I have some questions. If Feinstein had this for months, why did she sit on it for so long? The cynic can claim "oh, she's just using it to smear Kavanaugh" but she didn't even share it with the other Democrats who would have had an interest in finding things wrong about Kavanaugh. It's all very confusing.
