Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh is providing calendars he kept in 1982 to the Senate Judiciary Committee to back up his denial of a sexual assault allegation against him, The New York Times is reporting.
Kavanuaghs team admits the calendars do not disprove the alleged assault took place, but say they also do not corroborate the allegations of his accuser, Christine Blasey Ford. Blasey claims Kavanaugh pinned her to a bed and groped her when they were at a party in high school, and that she only escaped when his friend Mark Judge jumped on them.
People on Twitter were quick to drag the nominee and his team for thinking a calendar kept by a 17-year-old Kavanaugh would be a viable defense.

(23,738 posts)If the party that he didn't go to isn't the only thing (not) on those calendars, how many details does it have?
Seems to me that if he's submitting them to the committee as sworn testimony, and if they are incorrect in any detail, he stands a chance of having committed perjury, doesn't he?

Let me get this straight: we're going to get to see the detailed calendars Kavanaugh that he supposedly kept as a 17 year-old but we're NOT going to see the hundreds of thousands of documents related to what he worked in the Bush White House?#StopKavanaugh

This is really strange. Kavanaugh claims that he kept detailed calendars of his leisure activities when he was 17 years old? And he still has them?

It just identifies clearly with Trump, the guy id'd with 22 sexual assaults, all who also never reported it to police.
Just like Ford.
