It’s been quite a day. After 65 women friends of Brett Kavanaugh came out to sign a letter saying they never saw anything like what he was being accused of, the liberals went nuts with a crazy conspiracy theory.
.@ChuckGrassley releases a letter from 65 women who knew Kavanaugh in high school (showing Rs knew about this high-school rape allegation.) These women say Kavanaugh “behaved honorably and treated women with respect.”

Yeah, so basically, an ANONYMOUS woman makes sexual abuse claims against a guy, 65 women say there’s no way he did it, and liberals think that’s EVIDENCE HE DID IT.
And it’s not just left-wing nutcases tweeting this stupid theory, here’s left-wing-nutcase-that-works-for-Daily-Beast, Sam Stein:
Republicans having 65 signatories ready to go to attest to Kavanaugh’s high school conduct suggests that they too knew about the outlines of these allegations and have chosen strategically to play defense.

And other idiots:
1/ This. Regardless of how all this falls out, the fact Grassley had a list of 65 women from Kavanaugh's high school as character witnesses LINED UP is literally the biggest, dumbest tell that they knew this was coming down the pike. Even wait until Monday, for chrissake. https://t.co/opKijAUBmj

Let's pause to appreciate what a complete idiot @ChuckGrassley is.

By releasing the "65 women say Kavanaugh is not a rapist" letter within minutes of Farrow's story breaking, he proved beyond all doubt his committee sat on the allegation, and planned in advance to cover it up.
Between 5pm last night and mid day today a group of clerks made contact with at least 65 women who knew Kavanaugh in high school 35 years ago and got them to sign a letter attesting to his character. I don’t find that plausible. https://t.co/31HgXEVlD4

Of course they don’t believe it, they know government is usually so half-assed and incompetent, they can’t possibly believe anyone would actually have their business together.
Oh wait, that’s because government didn’t do this, regular people did:
A group of women who have known Brett Kavanaugh since his high school days decided Thursday to put together the letter of support for him — a day after rumors of allegations against him first became public — one of the organizers of the letter told BuzzFeed News.
“We need to rally around Brett,” Meghan McCaleb, one of the signatories, said she told people of the effort to support President Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominee.
In an interview Friday, McCaleb said the letter-writing campaign began after her husband, Scott McCaleb, got a call from a reporter following initial reporting by the Intercept and BuzzFeed News about a secret letter containing an allegation against Kavanaugh.
So it was completely a grassroots effort. No one knew about the allegations beforehand. Sorry lib idiots.
Another of the signatories, reached by BuzzFeed News, said she was contacted Thursday by McCaleb about the possibility of signing on to a letter attesting to Kavanaugh’s character. Megan Williams told BuzzFeed News that she was not aware of specific allegations against Kavanaugh when she signed the letter, but said, “I can’t even tell you how out of character” that would be and made clear that she stood behind the letter. “The guy’s a saint.”
I mean, this is just desperate and pathetic. They really are depending on false headlines to take down Kavanaugh, and the media is more than complicit. What will determine if they win or not is whether the GOP and we, the public, can rip down their false narratives quickly enough…
