The New York Times inadvertently exposed one of their sources in their latest hit piece on Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, and several facts point to him being a Democratic state senator.
On Monday night, The NYT published an article claiming that Kavanaugh and his friends bragged about sexual conquests with a female friend in their high school yearbooks. The phrases “Renate Alumnius” and “Renate Alumni” were allegedly references to Renate Schroeder, a student at a nearby girls’ Catholic school.
The NYT cited two sources for the claim that the boys were “boasting about their conquests”; one was Sean Hagan, a former Georgetown Prep student, and the other was anonymous.
According to a report by The Federalist’s Mollie Hemingway, the anonymous source was Richard S. Madaleno Jr., a Georgetown Prep classmate of Kavanaugh and a current Democratic Maryland state senator.
Hemingway noted that an original version of the NYT report named a “Mr. Madaleno” and then quickly deleted the reference. The authors did not explain why Madaleno’s name was removed and his first name was never mentioned.
Richard Madaleno, an anti-Trump Democrat, recently lost the Democratic primary for the Maryland governor’s race. Madaleno gained national attention for kissing his husband in a campaign ad and insisting the kiss was an act of resistance against the president.
