Im trying to imagine how the media would react if a Republican did this in relation to one of their allies being accused. We can ascertain fairly confidently that it wouldnt be positive, but Nancy Pelosi is a Democrat so she can get away with this.
The House Majority Leader proclaimed today that the sexual assault case against Joe Biden is closed and chastised the MSNBC anchor for asking her about it.
Daily Caller ✔ @DailyCaller Speaker Nancy Pelosi says that the Tara Reade sexual assault allegation against Joe Biden is a "closed issue" and that she "believes him when he says it didn't happen."
"I'm not going to answer this question again."
I love how after Pelosi says she wont answer the question again, the anchor just nods, lets her spew about how innocent Biden is for a full minute, and then just moves on. There was no push back, nor follow-up pointing out her hypocrisy on this issue. Lets recall that Pelosi was very rough on Kavanaugh, demanding the vote for his confirmation be delayed until there was a thorough investigation into the credible allegations against him.
Joe Biden gets a complete pass, though, because hes on her team. At this point though, its hard for me to blame Pelosi for playing hardball. No one in the mainstream media will press any Democrat on this issue, whereas Republicans were made to answer questions consistently about Kavanaugh all the way through his confirmation and even after. The double standard is stark.
If we had a media capable of being anything other than hopelessly biased, theyd be pressing hard on Democrats to explain why Tara Reade isnt credible but Blasey Ford was. In reality, there is far more corroborating evidence of Reades allegation than any made against Kavanaugh. But instead of hitting the ground running and digging for the truth, the media have actually attempted to abdicate their duty altogether, with the Times laughably suggesting the DNC investigate the matter.
Pelosi is a flaming hypocrite and she needs to be made to answer for it. Joe Biden saying I didnt do it is not at all the standard theyve held for any Republican whos been accused. They dont get to change the rules of the game now. Not even a little bit.
Clearly she doesn’t trust herself to provide cogent and consistent answers to the questions, and with good reason. Dementia loves company.
We are in a Civil War if we admit it or not. This 2020 election is not going to be pretty nor will the continuing Corona crap.
Well put.
Big Media is doing their very best for the pedophile predator.

They call it “sharply divided” when Reds and Indys are solid against him, but tell us he’s way ahead of Trump.
Who else is wondering about him sharing a “passionate” on-stage kiss with DOCTOR Jill?
Where is DOCTOR Jill, anyway?
Too bad the 25th amendment doesn’t apply for all elected and selected residents of DC’s power infrastructure.
So Joe is guilty.
Can't deny that Joe Biden molests, fondles, grooms and touches girls provocatively... and this
is what he actually does on camera... imagine what he does behind closed doors.
Trump and his team can have a lot of fun with that.
Just like settled science and global warm uh Climate Change
It seems whenever they are caught lying they resort to ‘it’s settled’ which means it’s a lie that we have to protect
If the democrats don’t treat this adequately, they will lose a lot of voters. After what they tried to do to Brett Kavanaugh with no substantiating evidence, they cannot possibly get away with just trying to let this go uninvestigated. Nancy Pelosi is a wizbang!
