Hillary Slips Up, Tweets Furious Screed Based On Debunked Kavanaugh Smear

 Hillary Clinton went on 6-tweet tirade Wednesday against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, citing a debunked fake news story that Kavanaugh referred to birth-control pills as "Abortion-inducing drugs."

"I want to be sure we're all clear about something that Brett Kavanaugh said in his confirmation hearings last week," Hillary confidently tweeted, adding "He referred to birth-control pills as"Abortion-inducing drugs." That set off a lot of alarm bells for me, and it should for you, too.

The rest of the screed, which you can read by clicking on her tweet, condemns Kavanaugh for making it "Clear that safe and legal abortion isn't the only fundamental reproductive right at grave risk if he is confirmed. Access to birth control is, too."

Except, Kavanaugh never said that.... And Hillary either didn't get the message, or is choosing to deceive her 23.4 million followers.

Kavanaugh was very clearly citing someone else in a response he gave to a question by Senator Ted Cruz - which California Democratic Rep. Kamala Harris's office then deceptively edited to make it appear that Kavanaugh said the quote.

Kavanaugh chooses his words very carefully, and this is a dog whistle for going after birth control.

In short, Kamala Harris - a Democratic 2020 hopeful, edited Kavanaugh's response - ostensibly to deceive people, which Hillary Clinton then repeated several days after Harris was called out by multiple outlets.
