Gillibrand calls for Kavanaugh nomination to be withdrawn
By Emily Birnbaum - 09/23/18 10:35 PM EDT

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) is calling for Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh's nomination to be withdrawn following two sexual misconduct allegations against him.

Gillibrand on Sunday tweeted her support for Deborah Ramirez, the woman who hours earlier went public in The New Yorker with her accusations against Kavanaugh. Ramirez is alleging that Kavanaugh exposed himself without her consent when the two attended Yale University together in the 1980s.

Her account comes one week after Christine Blasey Ford claimed in a Washington Post interview that Kavanaugh forced himself on her when the two attended neighboring high schools in 1982.

"Senate Republicans were trying to rush a vote while they knew Deborah Ramirez would come forward with her story," Gillibrand wrote, referencing the New Yorker's reporting that indicates GOP staffers knew about Ramirez's accusation as they tried to push Kavanaugh's confirmation process forward last week.

Trying to rush a vote?  He was nominated two and a half months ago.  These women had ample opportunity to come forward.  By the time CBF drives her liquor-cycle across the country, we could interrogate his entire graduating class.

This Kristan Gillibrand?
