A group of Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday accused
Republicans on the panel of mishandling information related to sexual
misconduct allegations against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.
Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) led a group of eight committee Democrats in a
letter to Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), in which the minority
party members claimed the majority had shared inaccurate or misleading
information about Kavanaugh’s previous background checks.
The Democrats highlighted a tweet from the Senate Judiciary Committee
account, which is operated by GOP staff, that claimed none of Kavanaugh’s
prior six FBI background checks turned up “a whiff of ANY issue – at all
– related in any way to inappropriate sexual behavior or alcohol abuse."
While we are limited in what we can say about this background investigation
in a public setting, we are compelled to state for the record that there is
information in the second post that is not accurate. We urge you to ensure
that these Twitter posts are promptly corrected," the Democrats wrote.
It wasn't immediately clear what portion of the tweet Democrats were
referring to in their letter, which was signed by every Judiciary Committee
Democrat except Sens. Amy Klobuchar (Minn.) and Chris Coons (Del.).
A spokesman for committee Republicans did not immediately respond to a
request for comment about the letter on Wednesday, though the majority staff
issued another tweet on Wednesday evening standing by the original
statement. | l*******g
