Supreme Court Associate Justice nominee Brett Kavanaugh speaks out in an interview on Monday’s broadcast of FOX News’\u00a0The Story<\/i>\u00a0with host Martha MacCallum. Kavanaugh denied Dr. Christine Blasey Ford’s allegation that he sexually assaulted her at a party in high school.<\/p>\n
“I’m not going to let false accusations drive us out of this process and we\u2019re looking for a fair process where I can be heard and defend my integrity my lifelong record,”\u00a0he said<\/a>. “My lifelong record of promoting dignity and equality for women starting with the women who knew me when I was 14 years old.\u00a0I\u2019m not going anywhere<\/a>.”<\/p>\n Kavanaugh said that perhaps this is a case of mistaken identity. He said he is not questioning whether Dr. Ford, his accuser, had been sexually assaulted, it just wasn’t him.<\/p>\n “I am not questioning and have not questioned that perhaps Dr. Ford at some point in her life was sexually assaulted by someone in some place. But what I know is I\u2019ve never sexually assaulted anyone in high school or at any time in my life,” Kavanaugh said Monday.<\/p>\n “What I know is the truth,” he said. “And the truth is, I\u2019ve never sexually assaulted anyone in high school or otherwise. I am not questioning and have not questioned that perhaps Dr. Ford at some point in her life was sexually assaulted by someone in some place. But what I know is I\u2019ve never sexually assaulted anyone in high school or at any time in my life.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Supreme Court Associate Justice nominee Brett...<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10401","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-u-s-a"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lapost.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10401","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lapost.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lapost.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lapost.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lapost.us\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=10401"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/lapost.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10401\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10403,"href":"https:\/\/lapost.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10401\/revisions\/10403"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lapost.us\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=10401"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lapost.us\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=10401"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lapost.us\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=10401"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
