Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, has rebuked Sen. Chris Coons, D-Del., after Coons submitted new allegations to Grassley involving Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. Grassley, the Senate Judiciary Committee chairman, said the allegations had "all the makings of a tabloid headline" and deserved "unqualified condemnation."
The accuser claims to have hosted a party in the late 1980s, during a time when Kavanaugh would've been in his first year at Yale, and claims that the party had "salacious behavior." The accuser claims that the party, which he hosted, had a local prostitute come and perform a public sex act to a "semi-circle of cheering frat brothers."

This could be the big one! Yalie sends Sen. Coons a new Kavanaugh allegation. Coons forwards to Chairman Grassley...
The accuser, according to Grassley, "freely admits" to not having any evidence that Kavanaugh was present at the party, writing in his original letter that he couldn't "say for certain that Judge Kavanaugh was present in the frat house during the event." The accuser provided "investigative advice" in the form of recommending investigators comb through Kavanaugh's submitted calendars, which Grassley noted that Democrats had "dismissed and derided."
