Reactions to Allegations Against Judge Kavanaugh Split

Christine Ford, who accused Judge Brett Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct, donated money to the Democratic National Committee, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, and Friends Of Bernie Sanders, a PAC that supported the Vermont senator's 2016 bid for the presidency.

Ford initially made her allegations in a letter submitted to the Federal Bureau of Investigation by Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-California). Ford came out as the accuser in a Washington Post report published on Sunday, recounting her alleged 1982 experience with Kavanaugh in detail. Per the article, Ford took a polygraph test that confirmed that she was telling the truth.

Ford's donations to Democratic causes were uncovered by Ryan Saavedra, a reporter at The Daily Wire:

Some, however, see the allegations against Judge Kavanaugh as being disqualifying. Zerlina Maxwell, an MSNBC analyst, wrote that the Senate cannot "confirm ANOTHER predator to the SCOTUS."

Please do not smear Christine Blasey Ford. What she is doing is a public service. In this #Metoo era we BELIEVE WOMEN. Her allegations come with therapists notes. No way we can confirm ANOTHER predator to the SCOTUS.
