Former Vice President Joe Biden said Wednesday that if he’s elected president, he will reverse a rule issued by Education Secretary Betsy DeVos aimed at bolstering protections for students who are accused of sexual assault on university campuses.
In a statement, Biden said the new rule was an effort by the Trump administration to “shame and silence” survivors of sexual assault.
“It’s wrong,” Biden said. “And, it will be put to a quick end in January 2021, because as president, I’ll be right where I always have been throughout my career — on the side of survivors, who deserve to have their voices heard, their claims taken seriously and investigated, and their rights upheld.”
The new rule issued Wednesday narrows the definition of sexual harassment and requires schools to produce evidence and allow for the cross-examination of students who say they were assaulted.
The rule is meant to ensure that those accused of sexual assault receive due process.
"Too many students have lost access to their education because their school inadequately responded when a student filed a complaint of sexual harassment or sexual assault," DeVos said in a statement. "This new regulation requires schools to act in meaningful ways to support survivors of sexual misconduct, without sacrificing important safeguards to ensure a fair and transparent process. We can and must continue to fight sexual misconduct in our nation's schools, and this rule makes certain that fight continues."

They don’t care about ‘innocent until proven guilty’.
So Biden is against due process for men when they have women accusers.
Yup that’s real justice for ya.

What "full legal adults" can't buy tobacco and alcohol?
18 - 21 year olds.
He’s always been an idiot. He’s one of those people who everyone knows is really stupid, but who like an Idiot Savant manages (with much help from the news media going back to the 70’s ... who must have been snickering in the wings) to end up as “boss”. Everyone knows the type. Maybe a third or more of the CEO’s in American companies are this type. Thank G*d he’s going visibly and irrefutably senile. Even given that, the focus should be on vote fraud in swing States in November. Left unchecked the Democrats could get Howdy Doody elected.
Guilty by female heresay is not a valid legal concept.

Meanwhile Biden was Vice President for this.

On campus = Believe all women.
Supreme Court = Believe all women.
US Senate = Women are lying, conniving, scheming, rotten people never to believed.
BS to you. They are full legal adults in the sense of full criminal liability for violent felonies they commit. If one commits a rape, the police department for that jurisdiction should investigate, not the college.
In fact, that’s exactly how it’s done in high schools. If one high school student rapes another, they call the local police. The principal doesn’t complete the investigation.
I really don’t understand this guy’s logic
Will he also go after presidential candidates accused of sexual assault?
