Tara Reade was once a worker on the Joe Biden staff. She was and remains a Democrat and consequently loathes Trump. She claims that back in the early 1990s, Biden accosted her, pushed her against a wall, put his hand under her dress and inserted his finger.

She told quite a few people about this over the years. Her mother knew of it and a recording of her ringing into Larry King to ask advice about how to proceed has now been unearthed.

Yesterday , a neighbour of Reade's has confirmed that a distressed Reade had told her the story at the time. Quite a few others have also come forward although some don't confirm the assault, just the harassment.

This is, of course, a disaster for the Biden campaign and the legacy media that supports all things Democrat. What's to to be done.

Well firstly the media simply ignored it in the hope it'd just go away.

But new evidence kept popping up and the utter hypocrisy of the media in ignoring it in light of #MeToo and #BelieveAllWomen was too much. Finally the NYT was moved to cover it - on page 28 on the weekend. After it was published the Biden camp was allowed to make changes to the article to make it even more favourable to Biden. (Imagine if Trump was allowed to edit Fox content!!)

The recording of Reade's mother was in the CNN archive but somehow they didn't find it. Someone else did so. Now it seems Google might be trying to restrict access to it.

Reade hasn't been mentioned on (y)our ABC.

Much has been made about MeToo and the need to believe the victim. When the target was prominent members of the right or even Trump, it was treated as pure blasphemy to not believe the 'survivor'. But now that the alleged assailant is of the left, the victim is being ignored, at best, and treated with disdain, at worst.

Some of those on the left who retain a modicum of integrity are hinting that Biden might have to go.

Interesting times.

regressive women are known for lying. Just look at the constant lies told by the abc about Pell. The problem is they are never held to account. The lying left liberal media will only 'believe all women' if its one of their own no matter if true or not.

Who cares what the Yanks do. Biden can’t even complete a sentence, and was probably away with the fairies already at the time of the ALLEGED offence.

All these ‘historical’ cases of sexual abuse have bored the shoes of most people for a long time now. Only a rampart, raging feminist would take any notice.

And the ALLEGED victim is still “distressed” 30 years later! She need not have tried to queer Biden’s pitch at the Presidency after all this time because his non compis state won’t get him past Donald Trump. And this woman hates both of them. A crazy, mixed up woman. But, that’s the Left for you, no matter where they live.

mhaze,

There's so many other US president's who were caught in
salacious sex scandals even before Trump's Stormy Daniels
saga.

Trump is no stranger to such scandals but neither is
the US Presidency - so I doubt if this recent attempt at
stirring will make any difference to Biden's aim for
the top job.

There have been at least 15 US Presidents who were caught in
salacious sex scandals ranging from the very first president -
George Washington onto Thomas Jefferson, Andrew Jackson,
William H. Harrison, John Tyler, James Garfield, Grover
Cleveland, Warren Harding, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Dwight D.
Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson,
George H. W. Bush, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton.

It's part
of the "boys will be boys" or "men will be men"
American scenario. Just like the deep belief of
gun ownership being an individual right.

Foxy,

For all that, the Democrats will probably have to junk Biden and ASAP. Ideally, they should be looking for a better candidate, none of those last year were much chop although some will be formidable given a few more years.

Perhaps what they need is a woman, African-American or Hispanic, extremely savvy, not aligned to any particular faction of the Dems, and with immense political experience and personal charm and warmth.

Love,

Joe
