Joe Biden has been accused of sexual assault. Or, as the media would say if he were a Republican, he has been “credibly accused” of sexual assault. But he is not a Republican. And so, of course, the media isn’t saying anything at all. If you don’t read The Daily Wire or a site like it, you may not have even heard that the soon-to-be Democratic nominee for president once allegedly pushed a woman against a wall and violated her.
The accuser, Tara Reade, says the assault happened in 1993 when she briefly worked as a staffer for then-Senator Biden. She contends that Biden was very “handsy” in general (evidence of which we’ve all seen on video), and his constant harassment and inappropriate behavior made her feel more like an object than a human. She did, she says, report the harassment through the proper channels. However, out of fear of reprisal and other concerns, she did not report the time when he allegedly shoved his hands up her skirt against her will. She told a friend and her brother about the incident — a claim which they have both confirmed — but that was it until a few months ago when she brought her story to Time’s Up, the leading organization behind the Me Too movement. She thought they would help her pursue a case against Biden, but instead they stonewalled her. Finally she had to go on a podcast called The Katie Halper Show to get her story out.
