Hillary Clinton on Tuesday scoffed at Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s claim that there was a political hit job being carried out against him “on behalf of the Clintons” — saying the accusation “deserves a lot of laughter.”

“Boy, I’ll tell you, they give us a lot of credit,” Clinton said while speaking at The Atlantic Festival in Washington.

“For anyone who believes there’s such a thing as judicial temperament and that we want judges, particularly those on our highest court to approach issues, approach plaintiffs and defendants with a sense of fairness — there’s a lot to be concerned about.”

The former presidential candidate went on to voice her support for Kavanaugh accuser Christine Blasey Ford, calling her sexual assault allegations from 1982 “very credible.”

“You have to ask yourself, why would anybody put themselves through this if they did not believe that they had important information to convey to the Senate?” Clinton said, noting how she found her “willingness to say I don’t remember that, but I remember this, to be very convincing.”

“I felt a great swell of pride that she would be willing to put herself out there under these circumstances,” Clinton added. “I think what is happening is that on many, many fronts women, and young women and girls, are saying you have to hear our stories too. We have the right to be heard.”

Kavanaugh has denied the allegations.

Clinton said that when it comes to the Kavanaugh probe, she expects the FBI to “conduct as thorough an investigation as they possibly can, within whatever restraints are imposed on them.”

Asked once again about the Supreme Court nominee’s claims that the Clintons want to exact “revenge” against him, the former first lady said: “It would had to have happened starting 36 years ago — and that seems a stretch even for the vast right-wing conspiracy.”
