Woman angry at Biden buys $500,000 in ads against him
MSN News ^ | August 28, 2019 | Bo Erickson, CBS News

A wealthy private citizen named Shirley Shawe has purchased $500,000 in ad time in early-voting states to slam Joe Biden over a business dispute that negatively affected her son's company years ago. The ad, which has little to do with 2020 issues, instead focuses on a bit of business arcana, the Delaware Chancery Court system, which was formed to adjudicate business disputes involving Delaware-based corporations.

"The Delaware court is too male, too white and anything but open," the ad's narrator says of court system.

The ad, shown here, bashes the Chancery Court and ties Biden to them, highlighting snippets of a 14-minute exchange in a 2005 Senate hearing between then-Senator Joe Biden and Elizabeth Warren, who was a Harvard law professor at the time. Shawe's ad accuses Biden of corruptly defending the system as Warren attacks it.

During the 2005 hearing, Biden and Warren argued over the openness and accountability of the bankruptcy courts, which are separate from the Chancery Court, as Warren pointed out to Biden, according to the transcript. But in the ad, the soundbite from the exchange on bankruptcy courts is spliced into criticism of Delaware's Chancery Court, making it seem as though Biden was defending its openness as Warren disputed it.

Maybe it should be called the Chicanery Court.

In other words, she is buying ads for Elizabeth Warren.

Wish I was wealthy enough to be that mad at someone!

She’d get more mileage though if she just claimed Bider felt her up.

Why would I read anything MSN publishes?

Not interested. Fake news, trying to manipulate.

It’s just more white, and white male bashing, as if alleged corruption would magically disappear if “minorities” ran it.

Biden, Warren, and Dershowitz involved in this kerfuffle.

These people are one huge daisy chain.
