Possible big snag for Kavanaugh [View all]

https://theintercept.com/2018/09/12/brett-kavanaugh-confirmation-dianne-feinstein/

Different sources provided different accounts of the contents of the letter, and some of the sources said they themselves had heard different versions, but the one consistent theme was that it describes an incident involving Kavanaugh and a woman while they were in high school. Kept hidden, the letter is beginning to take on a life of its own.
