You knew this was coming next after tonight’s new allegations against SCOTUS nominee Brett Kavanaugh from Ronan Farrow and Michael Avenatti:

Or maybe Sen. Feinstein can produce actually evidence? Just a thought:
No. Feinstein needs to produce evidence, not two claims from 30 years ago (one which she purposefully hid during the hearing) where the witnesses named contradict the claims. https://t.co/Cc2bBDEEMA

There’s also reportedly another letter that Dr. Christine Blasey Ford sent to Sen. Feinstein, but it hasn’t been released yet:
Christine Blasey Ford sent a letter directly to Grassley this weekend, according to two sources familiar with the matter, which her camp has consented to release. It hasn't been released yet.

Update. Sen. Grassley will investigate the claims made in the New Yorker article:
Grassley staff plans to look into the allegations in the New Yorker article, according to a spokesman for the senator, who also denied that Grassley or his office had any prior knowledge of the allegations before they were published tonight.

The aide said it’s premature to say whether the woman will be called as a witness or how it would affect the Thursday hearing
