The office of Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley released the unredacted initial letter that Christine Blasey Ford, who accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault in the 1980s, sent to Sen. Dianne Feinstein in July detailing her account of the incident.

The big picture: The letter's release came just minutes after Kavanaugh faced another allegation of sexual misconduct — this time from his undergraduate years at Yale — in a report from The New Yorker's Ronan Farrow and Jane Mayer.
