This week, the Supreme Court indicated that it may sweep away decades of pro-abortion precedent and statute and overturn the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling.

In light of this momentous and astonishing development, this was apparently what was on the mind of socialist Squad leader and New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez:

There is a lot to be analyzed in the representative's novel legal analysis ("legalize forced birth in the US"), but let us focus rather on her assessment of Justice Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation hearings several years ago, in which, she claims, he was "credibly accused of sexual assault on multiple accounts [with] corroborated details."

This is, in all the ways that matter, completely false—it is in fact so comprehensively untrue that it is virtually certain that Ocasio-Cortez herself knows it. Kavanaugh himself was not "credibly accused" of sexual assault, nor were there "corroborated details" about any of those accusations, at least not if the words "corroborated" and "details" are to mean anything at all.

Here are the facts as we know them:

• Christine Blasey Ford accused Brett Kavanaugh of having sexually assaulted her, but she never convincingly identified when this alleged assault occurred; she could not even reliably narrow down the year in question, describing the alleged incident as having occurred, variously, in the 1980s, the mid-1980s, or the early 1980s, finally settling on 1982, which she determined using "memories of when [she] got [her] driver's license."
• Ford could also not name where the attack took place, other than that it occurred at a party in a house the location of which she could not recall. She also did not remember how she got to the party or how she got home; she could produce no witnesses to either her coming to or leaving the party, and indeed neither she nor anyone else were ever able to produce any witnesses to corroborate the claim that she, or Kavanaugh, had ever been at this party.
• The only other notable claim resulting from the Dems' all-out witch hunt against Kavanaugh was made by Deborah Ramirez, who was at Yale at the same time as Kavanaugh and who claimed that Kavanaugh exposed himself to her during a drunken dorm party. The report, published in the New Yorker, relayed the incredible claim that Ramirez had only recalled the incident after "six days of carefully assessing her memories and consulting with her attorney."

Ignoring the other, even more outlandish accusations leveled at Kavanaugh—that he was a participant in a Georgetown-area drug-and-gang-rape cult, for instance—these are the two most "credible" accusations against the justice.

Do they seem "credible" to you? Or do they seem, at best, completely unprovable and even scarcely believable, far beyond the sort of thing the FBI might even consider "fully investigating?"

Ocasio-Cortez knows this. Most people do. The accusations against Kavanaugh, whatever their dubious merit, were always, primarily, a way to scuttle his nomination to the Supreme Court and to sully his legacy on the bench—the latter of which Ocasio-Cortez right now is plainly trying to do, on the eve of an historic Supreme Court decision about abortion.

Don't buy it.

I will leave you with Sen. Lindsey Graham questioning Brett Kavanaugh during his disgraceful sham of a hearing:
