RED FLAG🚩Letter linked below was sent 7/24 to @ChuckGrassley & @SenFeinstein.
It references clerks/others who want to talk (tho fearing harassment) abt Kavanaugh & mentor, Judge Kosinski re: sexual & other harassment in SF appeals court where Kav clerked assets.documentcloud.org/documents/4895…

"First, if Judge Kavanaugh states that he never heard or observed anything that would suggest that Judge Kozinski behaved inappropriately, he is either lying or so willfully blind to judicial misconduct that he should not be appointed. Everyone knew..."

How hellish was it to clerk for Kozinski as a woman? Read Heidi Bond’s account of her experience in Kozinski’s chambers. She was repeatedly summoned to 'fix a problem with his computer', only to be shown porno & asked “does this kind of thing turn you on?” courtneymilan.com/metoo/kozinski…

The letter, written by lawyer Cyrus Sanai, notes a number of federal employees who are willing to testify about a vital part of Kavanaugh’s professional/legal life. Feinstein & Grassley have had this letter since July. Sanai states he's received NO RESPONSE from them. WHY NOT??

The letter may support a case (via statements from SF court clerks) for perjury in committee testimony regarding Kavanaugh's knowledge of the Judge’s misconduct. A reminder of some of the questions that were asked during hearings by Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE) :
#KavanaughLies

Highly likely the clerks/others referred to in the letter who had knowledge were TOO afraid of retaliation (which Sanai himself has experienced a great deal of). In the letter, Sanai suggests that people be subpoenaed. I'd like to better understand why that could/did not happen.

Financial Times has reported that Justice Kennedy’s son was one of Trump's "most trusted associates over a 12-year spell at Deutsche [Bank]” which has heavy ties w/ Russian $. Kav clerked under Kennedy. A Kavanaugh/Kennedy/Trump/Russia connection? If so, Mueller may bump into it.
