Kavanaugh Friend Who Appeared in Ad Withdraws Support
-----------------------------------------------------

Today's hearing comes as right-wing "dark money" groups have spent
heavily in support of Kavanaugh's nomination. The Judicial Crisis
Network spent a million-and-a-half dollars last week on a 30-second ad
featuring Kavanaugh's long-time friend, Louisa Garry. But since the ad
aired, Garry has withdrawn her support for Kavanaugh amid accusations by
Deborah Ramirez, who says Kavanaugh exposed himself and thrust his
genitals in her face during a college party in a dorm room when they
were both students at Yale University.
