NEW: Two officials familiar with the matter say the incident detailed in the Feinstein letter involved possible sexual misconduct between Judge Kavanaugh and a woman when they were both in high school.

nytimes.com/2018/09/13/us/…
The information came in a letter, which was first sent to the office of Representative Anna Eshoo, Democrat of California. Feinstein shared its details with other Democrats on the Judiciary Committee Wednesday evening.
“Sen Grassley is aware of Sen Feinstein’s referral,” said George Hartmann, a Grassley spox. “At this time, he has not seen the letter in question, and is respecting the request for confidentiality. There’s no plan to change the cte’s consideration of Judge Kavanaugh’s nomination”

Anndd Alex Jones is here outside the Senate Intel heading room. He’s drawn quite a crowd. Police just ushered him away from a nest of cameras.
“They can say all day I violated their terms, but Jack Dorsey did not take me off Twitter.”
@JackPosobiec is also now here. And a Kavanaugh protester has temporarily joined the mix.

New with @SherylNYT: House Dems are discarding the lessons of successful midterms past (think “Contract With America,” and “Six for ’06.”) and pressing only a bare-bones national agenda as they head into the closing stretch.

nyti.ms/2MNCKTf
@SherylNYT The bet is that w/anti-Washington sentiment simmering; a deep divide between mods and lefties; and Nancy Pelosi's brand toxic in large sections of the country, a unified campaign framework emanating from Capitol Hill would do more harm than good.
@SherylNYT But it is a risky strategy, essentially putting off answering one of the most immediate questions facing the Democratic Party after its losses in 2016: What does it stand for?

Senate Democrats are DESPERATE SCUM

⁦@SenFeinstein⁩ sent a letter to the feds that reportedly included allegations of sexual misconduct between Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh and a woman when they were both in high school.

nypost.com/2018/09/13/sec…
The White House issued a furious response.

“Throughout his confirmation process, Judge Kavanaugh has had 65 meetings with senators—including with Senator Feinstein—sat through over 30 hours of testimony, addressed over 2,000 questions in a public setting...”
“... and additional questions in a confidential session. Not until the eve of his confirmation has Sen. Feinstein or anyone raised the specter of new ‘information’ about him,” the statement read.

Sounds serious.

A letter, authored by someone affiliated with Stanford University, describes an incident involving Brett Kavanaugh and an anonymous woman.

"BuzzFeed News contacted the woman believed to be the subject of the letter at her home last week. She declined to comment"
"Different sources provided different accounts of the contents of the letter ... but the one consistent theme was that it describes an incident involving Kavanaugh and a woman while they were in high school." theintercept.com/2018/09/12/bre…
More clues: The anonymous woman who is the subject of the letter is being represented by Debra Katz, a whistleblower attorney who works with #MeToo survivors.

This article works really hard to imply, without directly saying, that Feinstein is sitting on a letter that implicates Kavanaugh in a sexual harassment or assault scandal from his youth. theintercept.com/2018/09/12/bre…
