Yesterday, Ed Whelan, a former law clerk for Justice Scalia, longtime friend of Brett Kavanaugh, and the President of the Ethics & Public Policy Center, a right wing think tank that describes itself as "Washington, D.C.’s premier institute dedicated to applying the Judeo-Christian moral tradition to critical issues of public policy," sent out a lengthy Twitter thread suggesting that one of Kavanaugh's classmates was actually the man who assaulted Dr. Ford. He didn't just suggest it could have been some other student in general, but he named the man, currently a middle school teacher, and posted photos of the man and Kavanaugh from their high school yearbook, along with some detailed Hardy Boy-style sleuthing which revealed that, at that time, the man lived in a house similar to the one Dr. Ford described.
Not surprisingly, the man has kept a low profile since being "outed" by Whelan, but Dr. Ford immediately denied the suggestion, saying she knew both men from high school and could not possible have mistaken the two.
Once this blew up in his face, Whelan deleted the tweet thread and issued an online apology, but, before he posted the tweet thread, a number of right wing sources had suggested that Whelan was going to deliver some damage information about Dr. Ford's allegation.
I'm sure Flock will start screaming about right wing fake news and character assassination now.

Re: Where Is Flock's Outrage?
Well, I generally carry it in my shirt pocket, when I'm wearing a shirt that has one, but sometimes I put it in my wallet and carry it in my back pocket. I would have had to whip it out on this one, if I had ever heard about it. But I don't have a batphone.silverscreenselect wrote:Yesterday, Ed Whelan, a former law clerk for Justice Scalia, longtime friend of Brett Kavanaugh, and the President of the Ethics & Public Policy Center, a right wing think tank that describes itself as "Washington, D.C.’s premier institute dedicated to applying the Judeo-Christian moral tradition to critical issues of public policy," sent out a lengthy Twitter thread suggesting that one of Kavanaugh's classmates was actually the man who assaulted Dr. Ford.

Waldo obviously borrowed Flock's outrage because he's getting a view of something he'd rather not see...

Can someone 'sticky' Flock's outrage so it's easier to find? Maybe it can hang out with SSS's race card.
