When I first read this Vision2020 post on these newer allegations from
Deborah Ramirez of "misconduct" by Kavanaugh, reported by the New Yorker, I
wondered if Ronan Farrow was involved in this New Yorker report, given he
was involved in the well known sexual misconduct reports surrounding Harvey
Weinstein.

Indeed, it is so, as can be read below.

Still, I doubt these allegations of sexual misconduct will block the
ascension of Kavanaugh to the SCOTUS.  There are more democrats in the
US Senate who may vote for Kavanaugh, fewer republicans who may vote
against!

Deborah Ramirez, a Yale classmate of Brett Kavanaugh’s, has described a
dormitory party gone awry and a drunken incident that she wants the F.B.I.
to investigate.
