WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump rejected Democrats' calls for impeaching Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh on Sunday after a new report involving sexual misconduct allegations, encouraging Kavanaugh to sue for libel and suggesting the Justice Department could"rescue" him.

Kavanaugh did not comment to the Times on the allegations. The Supreme Court press officers did not immediately return a request for comment. "The revelations today confirm what we already knew: During his hearing, Kavanaugh faced credible accusations and likely lied to Congress," US Senator Bernie Sanders said.
