<Start of discussion> I'm proposing that the Sexual assault allegations be moved to its own article given the notability of the subject and the length of the section in general. Quidster4040 ( talk) 23:15, 9 November 2018 (UTC)

The New York Times made a correction to one of its stories about Kavanaugh. This should be mentioned [1]
Given subsequent developments regarding Avenatti, should this section either be removed, edited, or at the least have some caveat's regarding statements from Avenatti put in? The stetements of a now disbarred lawyer, convicted of fraud, embezzlement, extortion, etc should be taken with a very large grain of salt, if at all. Especially when that lawyers own clients said that he lied about what they said, it really reduces the encyclopedic value of the entire section. ResultingConstant ( talk) 14:00, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
I inserted the following. And it has been rejected, and it seems after over a decade and hundreds of edits to articles, I'm on the Sh-t list. I do have opinions but followed the rules ,including valid references. I've been one Wikipedia's strongest advocates, and fear something has changed. The following is my edit, that is referenced with a CNN video.
Senator Amy Klobuchar, began her questioning by descriing her own father having a drinking problem. When questioned about his, Kavanaugh said he "liked beer" and asked if she had a drinking problem herself. "Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh combatively responded to questions from Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) about his drinking habits. He apologized after the committee took a short break." [1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Arodb ( talk • contribs) 20:46, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

I feel the article right now explains the facts and details of what happened, but doesn't really give the political context - i.e. the "Kavanaugh effect" and why the Republicans (allegedly?) got a boost in the Senate races. Someone who isn't super familiar with US politics won't really understand what happened.
I'm gonna work on adding some of that, but I figured I'd post in here first in case others had opinions on it as well. - Jushyosaha604 ( talk) 03:07, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
Bret Kavanaugh he if you read Wikipedia on Christine Blasey Ford her age was 15 so he was 14 physically younger. I remember during hearings he was a few grades behind her . Seldom do older students hang anyplace younger students are Tinylp ( talk) 16:59, 8 February 2021 (UTC)
seems like the wrong term? This isn't about who voted for him but about his anticipated rulings. 149.103.10.5 ( talk) 15:25, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
