As Twitchy told you earlier, a woman named Cristina King Miranda tweeted that she graduated from Holton Arms, that she knew both Brett Kavanaugh and his accuser Christine Blasey Ford, and that she remembered the alleged incident being “spoken about for days afterwords [sic] in school.” She subsequently deleted the tweet:

Miranda’s latest tweet, which has also been deleted, clarifies that she doesn’t know what she told everyone she thought she knew:
