Brett Kavanaugh, President Donald Trump’s nominee to the Supreme Court, outlined in a 1998 memo a list of seriously explicit questions that he felt should be asked by an independent counsel of then-President Bill Clinton about his relationship with Monica Lewinsky. In the document, Kavanaugh also said that he was “strongly opposed” to giving Clinton a “break.” The National Archives released the memo after a Freedom of Information Act request by The Washington Post. Among the 10 questions Kavanaugh wanted counsel Ken Starr to ask were “If Monica Lewinsky says that you inserted a cigar into her vagina while you were in the Oval Office area, would she be lying?” and “If Monica Lewinsky says that on several occasions you had her give her [sic] oral sex, made her stop, and then ejaculated into the sink in the bathroom off [sic] the Oval Office, would she be lying?” Kavanaugh also wrote that Clinton “has required the urgent attention of the courts and the Supreme Court for frivolous privilege claims—all to cover up his oral sex from an intern. He has lied to his aides. He has lied to the American people. He has tried to disgrace you and the Office with a sustained propaganda campaign that would make Nixon blush.”
