Hillary Clinton tweeted out a false, disingenuous, and thoroughly debunked claim about Judge Brett Kavanaugh Wednesday. Even left-leaning fact-checking sites have rated her claim false.

Daily Caller reports:

The 2016 presidential candidate claimed that Kavanaugh referred to birth control pills as “abortion-inducing drugs” and warned that it was a “dog whistle to the extreme right.”

I want to be sure we’re all clear about something that Brett Kavanaugh said in his confirmation hearings last week. He referred to birth-control pills as “abortion-inducing drugs.” That set off a lot of alarm bells for me, and it should for you, too.

Kavanaugh didn’t use that term because he misunderstands the basic science of birth control—the fact that birth control prevents fertilization of eggs in the first place. He used that term because it’s a dog whistle to the extreme right.

When Kavanaugh called birth control “abortion-inducing drugs,” he made it clear that safe and legal abortion isn’t the only fundamental reproductive right at grave risk if he is confirmed. Access to birth control is, too.

The claim that Kavanaugh called birth control “abortion-inducing” has been deemed not accurate by multiple fact-checking organizations, including PolitiFact. 

“[Kavanaugh] was citing the definition of the religious group Priests for Life” when he referred to contraceptives as “abortion-inducing,” PolitiFact explained. “He has not expressed his personal view.”

The claim originated from an edited video clip used by California Democratic Sen. Kamala Harris. Harris’ clip showed Kavanaugh stating, “Filling out the form would make [Priests for Life] complicit in the provision of the abortion-inducing drugs that they were — as a religious matter, objected to.”

So far, Clinton has not retracted her false claim.
