The crucifixion of Brett Kavanaugh continues ...

Article from Pluralist.com:
Washington Post Passed on Thinly Sourced Kavanaugh Story Before NY Times Published It

Original article from "Democracy Dies In Darkness":
Democratic candidates demand Kavanaugh’s impeachment after new allegation in Times piece
The Washington Post last year confirmed that two intermediaries had relayed such a claim to lawmakers and the FBI. The Post did not publish a story in part because the intermediaries declined to identify the alleged witness and because the woman who was said to be involved declined to comment.
So what changed from last year, when "Democracy Dies In Darkness" first got wind of this accusation, and today, when the NY Slimes decided to publish it? Two hypotheses:

1) The two accusers have a new book that is about to be published. Gotta gin up the controversy to sell those books, no matter how flimsy the evidence is.

2) RBG's health is failing and may croak at any given moment. This is a shot across the bow to any potential nominee that will be replacing her.
