NBC晚间新闻 大法官提名人卡瓦诺面临新指控

Let's get right to NBC's KASIE HUNT on Capitol Hill. Casey, what are you learning? Lester, tonight NBC News has learned that the Senate Judiciary Committee is probing an additional anonymous¹ allegation of physical assault against Brett Kavanaugh, a charge that he tells the committee he denies.

It came in a letter. The sender saying the woman involved, her own daughter who witnessed Judge Kavanagh shove a woman up against a wall in a sexual manner when he was drunk in 1998. So while in public it's full speed ahead on the Kavanagh nomination², behind closed doors some Republicans are starting to worry that things might be moving a little bit too quickly. And my sources tell me that if there's another allegation Republicans might start voicing doubts and that would be especially true if it were proven that he is not telling the truth.

我们连线NBC在国会山的记者卡西·亨特。卡西，你得到了什么消息？莱斯特，今晚，NBC新闻获悉，参议院司法委员会正在调查另一项匿名指控，即布雷特·卡瓦诺(Brett Kavanaugh)人身攻击的指控，他否认了这项指控。指控来自一封信。发件人说，这名女子是她自己的女儿，她亲眼目睹了1998年卡瓦纳法官醉酒后将一名女子推到墙上意图不轨。因此，尽管表面上看，卡瓦纳的提名过程正全速前进，但一些共和党人私下却开始担心事情可能进展得太快了。有关人员告诉我，如果再有一项指控，共和党人可能会开始表示怀疑，如果事实证明他没有说实话，那就更是如此。
