The Washington Examiner reports:
The mystery of where Harris came up with her question was solved later on. It turned out that Kavanaugh does actually know someone at Kasowitz — Edward McNally, whom he had worked with many years ago in the Bush administration. On Thursday, after having a chance to study the firm's roster, Kavanaugh was able to testify under oath that he definitely had not discussed the Mueller investigation with McNally or anyone else at the firm.This Edward McNally.
At this, Harris folded her hand instantly, declaring bitterly that Kavanaugh could have put the matter to rest with a clear answer on Wednesday. And the speed with which she did so was very telling. Harris had been on a fishing expedition. She had pretended to have a big one on the line. What she might not have realized is that although such a bluff might work in getting some nervous half-wit to plead guilty to something he didn't do, it isn't going to derail a Supreme Court nominee who knows the confirmation process about as well as any living human being. This isn't a police station interrogation room — here, you have to reel that fish in before you can brag about catching it.
