As Washington reels from an accusation of sexual misconduct levied against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, who has absolutely denied the allegation, those who have known him are speaking up in his defense. Rachel del Guidice scored an exclusive interview with one of 65 women who knew Kavanaugh in high school and signed a letter vouching for his character. Plus: a new study suggests that teens raised with religion have better lives.

We also cover these stories:

  • Kavanaugh says allegation of sexual misconduct against him is “completely false.”
  • Both Kavanaugh and his accuser, Christine Blasey Ford, say they are willing to testify publicly on the allegations.
  • Sen. Chuck Grassley says Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California “has had this information [regarding the allegation against Kavanaugh] for many weeks and deprived her colleagues of the information necessary to do our jobs.”
  • Retailers, as well as UPS and FedEx, are looking to make hundreds of thousands of hires for the holiday season.
