Claim: Dr. Blasey works for a pharmaceutical company that makes “abortion pills,” and she is bringing accusations against Judge Kavanaugh to preserve abortion rights and protect her firm’s profits.
Verdict: Mostly false.

One of the more elaborate misinformation campaigns against Dr. Blasey involves claims that she worked for a pharmaceutical company that made abortifacient drugs. Because of these ties, the claims say, she was financially motivated to keep Judge Kavanaugh — who abortion-rights advocates worry would reverse Roe v. Wade and end legalized abortion in the United States — off the Supreme Court.

This theory unspooled on Facebook and Twitter, as well as on right-wing websites like Gateway Pundit and World News Daily. Operation Rescue, the anti-abortion group, called Dr. Blasey an “abortion pimp.”

The claim revolves around Corcept Therapeutics, a pharmaceutical start-up where Dr. Blasey worked several years ago.

Conservative activists singled out a drug made by Corcept Therapueutics — Korlym, also known as mifepristone — that the activists said was an off-label “abortion pill.” Mike Adams, a far-right blogger who is known for his promotion of pseudoscientific conspiracy theories, wrote on the website Natural News that “Blasey is a paid researcher for an abortion pill company with a lot to lose if Kavanaugh is confirmed to the U.S. Supreme Court.”

Dr. Blasey did, in fact, work as the director of biostatistics for Corcept Therapeutics. And mifepristone can, in fact, be prescribed in combination with another drug, misoprostol, to terminate pregnancies.

But Korlym, the drug made by Corcept Therapeutics, was developed to treat Cushing’s syndrome, a rare, potentially deadly condition that causes the body to produce excess cortisol. It is not promoted for use in medically induced abortions, and it is far more expensive than the usual drugs used in those procedures.

In addition, there is no evidence that Dr. Blasey ever researched the drug’s use in terminating pregnancies, or has anything to gain financially from court rulings on abortions.

The unfounded theory about Dr. Blasey’s ties to an “abortion pill” provider is still traveling on Facebook. Gateway Pundit’s post has been shared nearly 20,000 times on Facebook, according to its website.

This started out with an incident that took place in high school and they said how could they hold Kavanaugh responsible for something he did in high school? The next incident took place in college where he tried to molest a student who had to work her way through school. Since she was hired help and worked cleaning dorm rooms she would have been beneath Kavanaugh whose parents were paying his way through school. That makes him better than her and trying to stick his penis in her mouth was alright in his mind.

This is much like the Bill Cosby story or the Roy Moore saga first one accuser comes out and everybody dismisses the accusations then another victim comes forward and another. Kavanaugh third accuser went public today with allegations of gang rape with trains of boys waiting in line to take their turn. A portrait of a bunch of spoiled rich kids doing their level best to get teenage girls drunk or drugging them so they could gang bang them. You need only look to Kavanaugh’s yearbook with a picture of Kavanaugh and eight other football players with the inscription “Renate Alumni.”

Kavanaugh has a strange mind and we all know alcohol kills brain cells and it looks like in his case it has killed a few too many. His first proof that he didn’t do was to get 64 women to say that he had not molested them even Renate signed the letter, but she was absolutely horrified to find the yearbook references. She said, “She had no idea what was in the minds of 17-year-old boys.” She should have said 17-year-old perverts. Today he produced a calendar from when he was in high school with what he was going to do that day like go to the movies. There was not one entry that said go rape girls like he would actually put down on calendar that Saturday was rape night. I don’t know what passes for proof in his court but I can imagine a burglar using the defense it couldn’t have been me it wasn’t on my calendar.

The fourth incident was referred to the Judiciary Committee and this takes place in 1998 in front of several witnesses. All of incidents have one thing in common Kavanaugh is always drunk. In this incident Kavanaugh slams a woman up against a wall and then is all over her like a cheap suit. He is no longer a teenager. But of course, if you’re drunk it can’t be your fault it is the alcohol’s fault. The pieces of the puzzle fit together to form a real nasty picture of a spoiled rich sociopath.
