Joe Biden's campaign team has vehemently denied the sexual assault allegations of a former Senate staffer who says she wanted to come forward to ensure that "powerful men" are held to account.
Last year, Tara Reade, had been among a number of women to speak out about how Biden's behavior had made them feel uncomfortable in the past.
At the time, Reade said she was still left disturbed by memories from nearly 30 years ago when, while working as a Senate staffer for Biden in 1993, the then-senator would do things like put his hand on her shoulder or run his finger up and down her neck. Other women told similar stories of shoulder rubs or nuzzling of their hair.
**SNIP**
On Friday, she told Newsweek that her primary goal in speaking out was to be able to share her story without having to prioritize the reputations of "powerful men".
"I was trying to have a deeper conversation about sexual harassment in the workplace and powerful men," Reade said Friday evening.
"I'm not going to get traditional justice, like with [Harvey] Weinstein's case," she said. "I'm looking for something more existential - to not have to keep a secret because it's somebody powerful."

Looking to ditch ol joe,
2800 viewers on his corona virus conference
None of them truly thinks there’s anything wrong with groping the help. If there were a real threat to their perquisite, party differences would disappear like a shot.
Welcome to the party pal.
It’s too late for her to get justice. Some are suggesting that party elders might use her story to take the nomination from Joe.
No doubt Dr. Jill has been in touch with Hillary for a few pointers on forming her own Bimbo Hit Squad.
she was still left disturbed by memories from nearly 30 years ago when, while working as a Senate staffer for Biden in 1993, the then-senator would do things like put his hand on her shoulder or run his finger up and down her neck...
I (and we all) have had some disturbing and difficult stuff happen in life.
If putting his hands on her shoulder is still disturbing her memories 30 years later, she’s led a charmed life or is a weak woman
I didn’t say it was right.
but it’s a insult to people who have had things happen to them that Should disturb them 3 decades later
She needs to do one of two things;
1. Report it at the time and deal with it.
2. Suck it up and get on with life.
I don’t put any faith in the credibility of decades old accusations against candidates. If this was such a big deal then report it when it happens and let the courts sort it out.
Joe should hire George Stephanopolus as an adviser. I’m sure George could offer some no-partisan, objective advise on how to handle this situation.
The more she talks the more scripted and manufactured this sounds. Biden is getting Kavenaughed.
we can thank the Cuomo crime family for digging this up.
and I can’t help thinking of Tara Reid, MTV party girl.
if you recall, Papa George Bush was playing grabsy ass with unsuspecting women who thought it was a photo op. He thought he was charming!
According to her, thats not all he did.
Thats the crux of this
However....IF....he did .......the details are too salacious to print here, imo
Where was this person in 2008? Go away, the time has passed.
Probably just Me Too Bullshit looking for a good payday. No surprise.
Existential . You are a bit late on that one lady.
Bush was probably senile at that point. Was he really doing that when he had all his faculties?
It depends on what the meaning of “fingering” is. Was it just what Biden usually does, or was it something more? Probably “something more,” but how much more? We’ll never know.
That ain’t going to happen. She should have thought of that before she sold her soul to Satan and went to work for the Democrat Party. Satan always collect his debts. She better be thankful that it is Biden and not Hillary. Hillary would send her killers to silence her permanently.
