Biden sexual assault allegation roils #MeToo movement

"When I pulled away, the anger kind of emanated from him," Reade said in an interview with POLITICO. "He pointed his finger in my face and said, 'You're nothing to me. You're nothing.'"

Some worry about inadvertently advancing the political fortunes of a president who has been accused of sexual assault himself.

"In 2017, actress Alyssa Milano became one of the early advocates for the #MeToo movement when she tweeted, “If you’ve been sexually harassed or assaulted, write ‘me too’ as a reply to this tweet.” Legions of women went public with their stories in response.
"Two-and-a-half years later, Milano took to Twitter again — this time, to explain her self-described “silence” over sexual assault allegations against presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden made by ex-Senate aide Tara Reade.
“ 'I just don’t feel comfortable throwing away a decent man that I’ve known for 15 years in this time of complete chaos without there being a thorough investigation,” Milano said in an interview to which she linked. The backlash was swift: Progressives and feminists accused Milano of being a hypocrite and turning her back on Reade because she supported Biden." . . .
Biden is in the hot seat now, according to this Politico article. Now we wait to see what CNN will report on this:

When Milano explained this month why she had been silent about Reade’s allegations, before several traditional outlets reported on them, she said, “I’m sure that mainstream media would be jumping all over this as well if … they found more evidence.” Her remarks sparked a fight with another high-profile advocate for victims of sexual misconduct.

 Actress Rose McGowan, who accused Weinstein of rape, tore into Milano on Twitter, saying, “You are a fraud. This is about holding the media accountable. You go after Trump & Kavanaugh saying Believe Victims, you are a lie. You have always been a lie. The corrupt DNC is in on the smear job of Tara Reade, so are you. SHAME.”

. . . "Afterward, she said, she was stripped of most of her duties, and later given a month to find another job at the instruction of Kaufman, who denies her account, along with Toner and two others in the office. No other Biden staffers have corroborated the assault and harassment allegations to the media.

Then, the friend said, Reade told her that she was physically assaulted by Biden. The friend said she told Reade not to report the sexual assault to the police because it would have ruined her career. After the story broke, Reade filed a police report.

Lucy Flores, a former Nevada lawmaker who accused Biden of inappropriately touching her in a creepy way, said she’s not surprised that his supporters, like Milano, are standing by him. She said she blocked the actress on Twitter last year for Milano’s statements of support for Biden that indicated she doubted her. Flores said she did not consider Biden’s touching of her sexual. 

Hollywood "victim" advocates and Joe Biden fans, we wait to hear from you. Alyssa Milano? Gloria Allred? Joy Behar?

This newly discovered video is of the mother of Tara Reade calling Larry King about the matter in 1993.  She called from "San Looees Obeespo", CA.

Andrea Widburg: A 1993 Larry King show supports Tara Reade’s claim that Biden assaulted her

Ryan Grim, to whom Reade told the story about her Mom’s embarrassing call to Larry King, repeated the story to Katie Halper, who had first broadcast Reade’s allegations. One of Halper’s listeners managed to find a Larry King show from August 1993 during which a woman identified as “a caller from San Luis Obispo,” asked for advice about help for her daughter, who had been victimized by a “prominent senator,” but had been unable to get anyone to act on her complaint. Reade has since confirmed that the voice belongs to her mother:

CNN avoids on-air coverage of Biden accuser Tara Reade nearly one month after making assault claim 

"Biden has made three separate appearances on the liberal network since Reade came forward. Between the two interviews with CNN anchor Anderson Cooper during individual virtual town halls and a separate interview with anchor Brooke Baldwin, the former vice president was never asked about the alleged incident."

"CNN has continued its bizarre on-air blackout of Tara Reade nearly one month after she came forward accusing former Vice President Joe Biden, the Democrats' presumptive presidential nominee, of a sexual assault in 1993.
"Reade, a former staffer for the then-senator, spoke out about the alleged assault during a podcast interview on March 25. She previously came forward last year with claims of inappropriate touching as a wave of women made similar allegations against the former vice president around the time he entered the 2020 presidential race.
"For nearly three weeks, the mainstream media largely avoided Reade's allegation. The tides began to shift following Rich McHugh's report in Business Insider the Friday before Easter that Reade had filed a criminal complaint against Biden.
"The New York Times, The Washington Post and NBC News published their first reports on Easter Sunday. ABC News and CBS News followed suit that Monday and Tuesday. CNN waited until Friday to issue its first report about the allegation on its website.
"Meanwhile, there has been no mention of Reade's claim on-air." . . .

CNN Slammed For Treatment Of Biden Sexual Assault Allegations After Old Larry King Clip Surfaces

“ 'I remember it being an anonymous call and her saying my daughter was sexually harassed and retaliated against and fired, where can she go for help? I was mortified.' ”

Is This the Mother of Joe Biden's Accuser Talking to CNN in 1993?  . . . "Journalists have largely buried this story. ABC, NBC and CNN have not reported on it AT ALL. CBS, PBS and MSNBC have offered very minimal coverage. How long will journalists keep covering up this explosive story?

"For more on how journalists have (or have not) covered Tara Reade, go here. 

"UPDATE: 7:12 p.m. Eastern. The Daily Caller News Foundation’s Mary Margaret Olohan published a story that not only featured both The Intercept’s original item and our video, but a statement from Reade:

Reade reminded the DCNF that she had told reporters that her mother called the Larry King show about her alleged assault.

“I just heard audio, my mother died and hearing her voice made me cry. She was such a good mom and always watching out for me even now,” she said, adding that the video proves what she has been saying: “that I was forced out and wanted to come forward in 1993.”

‘You Are A Fraud’: Rose McGowan Rips Alyssa Milano For Supporting Biden Despite Sexual Assault Allegations (UPDATED 4/9)

COTR

"Alyssa Milano is a liberal idiot that mercilessly attacked Brett Kavanaugh during his Senate confirmation hearings. Her stance was, “ALWAYS BELIEVE WOMEN.”
"Always believe women, that is true, of course, if the man accused is not Joe Biden.
"This woman accusing Joe Biden has a far more credible case against him than Christine Blasey Ford had against Kavanaugh.
"For starters, Tara Reade could prove without a doubt that she knew Joe Biden. Tara Reade had proof that she had to take the gym bag over to Biden at the capital that day. She has two witnesses that remember her telling them of the sexual assault when it happened.
"I wrote about the assault here. Please read the original post. I do not believe this is an instance where a woman is going after a powerful man for notoriety. I believe that she is a true sexual assault victim, and we need to be her voice.
"An exert from my original article is important to remember timeline and context surrounding the lack of support from the Times Up and Me Too movement:

You are a fraud. This is about holding the media accountable. You go after Trump & Kavanaugh saying Believe Victims, you are a lie. You have always been a lie. The corrupt DNC is in on the smear job of Tara Reade, so are you. SHAME https://twitter.com/alyssa_milano/status/1247217322542002177 …Alyssa Milano
@Alyssa_Milano
I explained my silence on the allegations against Joe Biden in this clip.
I am still endorsing @JoeBiden. Listen to this clip to find out why. #MeToo #TimesUp https://youtu.be/tcNx_nD6Bi4

I cannot forget Milano's great photo op, set up with the help of Sen. Feinstein and keeping her on camera at the expense of Brett Kavanaugh and his family. She even had a political sign on the back of her clipboard. Publicity for Milano with praise at Hollywood parties and TV talk shows. TD

UPDATE: Milano Utterly Destroyed By #MeToo For Saying: ‘Don’t Believe Biden’s Accuser’  . . . "She sought to explain her “silence” in the face of mounting criticism by supporters of Sen. Bernie Sanders, a Vermont Independent and Biden’s primary opponent.

“I never thought [Me Too] would be something that would destroy innocent men,” Milano said on SiriusXM’s Radio Andy. “We don’t want that to happen either. So we have to find this balance in the Believe Women movement and also giving men their due process and realizing that we’re destroying lives if we publicly don’t go through the right steps in order to find out if an accusation is credible or not.”
“ 'It’s got to be fair in both directions,” she added.

Milano's obviously sincerely devastated by her accuser,
 but as an actress, she is good at acting "obviously,
sincerely devastated". TD

"While Milano is refusing to believe Biden’s accuser without a “thorough investigation,” she believed Christine Blasey Ford’s allegation against Kavanaugh the same day the doctor came forward in the Washington Post.
"On September 16, 2018, after the Post named Ford, Milano went beyond merely calling for an investigation, instead, tweeting out her categorical support for Ford:" . . .

Rose McGowan Rips Media for ‘Covering Up Creepy Joe Biden’ Assault Allegation  . . . "The fact that Reade’s accusation is more credible than the accusation made against then-Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, is not in dispute. For starters, there’s no proof Blasey Ford even knew Kavanaugh. Secondly, Blasey Ford’s own “witnesses” not only said they didn’t witness anything, more than one said the event never happened.

"Nevertheless, actress-activists like Milano and the establishment media ripped mercilessly into Kavanaugh while they now hang Reade out to dry." . . .  (Emphasis added by TD)

Pelosi and Schumer, get out of the President's way and let him run the country

*Amid the confusion, fear, and uncertainty surrounding the outbreak of the Chinese coronavirus pandemic in the United States, one thing is obvious: this country is astonishingly fortunate to have Donald Trump as our president.

Unhinged: Pelosi Claims She Knew About Coronavirus Threat, Defends Prioritizing Impeachment…

So then the N.O. mayor should blame Pelosi instead?

"You may recall that the most dangerous place on earth, Bob Dole wisely observed, is between Chuck Schumer and the TV cameras".
“If you spent less time on your ridiculous impeachment hoax … and instead focused on helping the people of New York, then New York would not have been so completely unprepared …. You have been missing in action, except when it comes to the “press.”

But the left never gives up:
Pelosi Forms Committee to Investigate Trump Handling of Coronavirus Pandemic
"Committee focus supposed to be on spending of stimulus funds, but has broad enough scope and subpoena power to turn into another impeachment-style fiasco in the middle of a national crisis."

*President Trump Stands Tall

Amid the confusion, fear, and uncertainty surrounding the outbreak of the Chinese coronavirus pandemic in the United States, one thing is obvious: this country is astonishingly fortunate to have Donald Trump as our president. . . .

. . . In stark contrast, national Democrats and national liberal media figures look small.  Chuck Todd of NBC tried to toss poor Joe Biden a softball by asking him if "Trump has blood on his hands for his initial slowness to react to the crisis."  Once he understood the question, even Biden wouldn't agree with Todd.  But rather than acting like a statesman — an American statesman — and publicly supporting the president, Biden has instead either been silent (offering nothing constructive or supportive) or made 8th grade–style snarky criticism from the safety of his unaccountable sidelines.  Biden has confirmed his smallness. . . 

The bottom line of all this: The greatest worry of most journalists and other Democrats is not the virus, it is that Trump might win reelection
We must place our country into the hands of those who love this nation, not those who are the choice of Bett Midler, Maxine Waters, AOC, Rashida Tlaib, Bill Maher, Mazie Hirono, Nancy Pelosi, Megan Rapinoe and most of the US Women's soccer team, Stephen Colbert, anyone now at CNN and MSNBC, Alyssa Milano, Headhunter Griffin, Robert DeNiro and, well... you can name many others, can't you?  The Tunnel Dweller

"Lookatme!" Megan Rapinoe and her "endless spew of self-righteous drivel" . . . " Perhaps she really is “iconic” if your political and personal views align perfectly with Rapinoe’s. Surely, though even her allies must cringe occasionally at her antics, and pretending she is some unifying figure of diversity, rather than a polarizing loudmouth, particularly grates."
The Guardian loves her, hates Trump, but which one would you want beside your son's flag-draped casket?


https://www.usapoliticstoday.org/kamala-harris-money-funneling/"Sunday’s BET Awards saw rappers calling police murderers and California Congresswoman Maxine Waters and California Senator Kamala Harris were applauded and praised as social justice “superheroes.” Harris once asked, "someone who is about to become the head of one of the largest intelligence services in the world if they believe in climate change." Blaze TV’s Deneen Borelli has something to say about Louis Farrakhan, Kamala Harris, and Al Sharpton. They are toxic and dangerous.

Senator Mazie Hirono. . . “Of course it helps that there are women on that committee, but you know what? I expect the men in this country and the men in this committee … to demand an FBI investigation,” Hirono said. “But really, guess who’s perpetuating all of these kinds of actions? It’s the men in this country! And I just want to say to the men in this country — just shut up and step up! Do the right thing for a change.” . . .

Chuck Schumer is a thug  . . .

PARODY: Still waiting: Alyssa Milano Confirms FBI Investigators Have Not Reached Out To Her To Get A Celebrity's Opinion On Kavanaugh Yet

Milano's publicity shot in 2018

Babylon Bee  "LOS ANGELES, CA—Charmed actress and all-around knowledgeable person about politics Alyssa Milano confirmed Tuesday that FBI investigators still have not reached out to her to get a celebrity's opinion on Kavanaugh.
" 'This investigation is a sham!" she wrote on her Twitter account. "How can FBI investigators possibly get to the bottom of all this stuff Kavanaugh definitely did if they don't talk to a woman who acts in movies and stuff?"
"Milano further stated she did try to contact a local FBI field office to let them know she was available for an interview, but the agents said they liked Buffy The Vampire Slayer a lot more than Charmed back in the day and so would not be talking to her.
"At the end of the 122-tweet long thread, Milano demanded the FBI talk with the entire cast of Dawson's Creek before coming to any kind of conclusion. "It's only fair that the FBI be thorough and take in a bunch of celebrity opinions to unveil the truth."
"At publishing time, Lena Dunham had also come forward to confirm no FBI investigators had asked for her input." . . .

‘American Hero’: Hollywood Sold On ‘Rockstar’ Schiff’s Impeachment Screenplay

Gabriel Hays  "Impeachment circus ringleader Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) may find his Hollywood screenwriting aspirations fulfilled after all.

"Many of tinseltown’s leading players have been so enamored with Schiff’s fictional impeachment arguments in the Senate trial that they are calling him a “rockstar,” an “American Hero,” and the key man for such an “historic moment.”

"Rabid Bernie supporter and once-relevant actor John Cusack revealed he’d drank the entire kool-aid punch bowl, heaping lavish praise on Schiff for taking a stand against GOP corruption. He tweeted, “@RepAdamSchiff I applaud you - the tremor in your voice matches the historic moment your describing - he’s angry - and rightfully so - We need to make the gop afraid of us - they are trying to coronate a king while killing the rule of law.”

"He added, “go straight to hell gop.” Whatever, John. Maybe you should worry about the establishment Dems who want to tank your guy for a more electable candidate. By the way, put your money where your mouth is. Use some of your $50 million net worth to pay off some student loans.

"Pro-abort activist and Charmed actress Alyssa Milano couldn’t resist some emotional leftwing grandstanding. She provided a resounding declaration on how well Dem Impeachment managers are presenting the farce. She tweeted, “This trial is a ‘great’ campaign ad for the 2020 Democratic ticket. If the @SenateGOP were smart, they would allow evidence and witnesses. Trump’s defense team can’t compete with what’s going down on record.' ” . . .

Hollywood Leftists respond to Soleimani's death by attacking America

Andrea Widburg "Hollywood has distinguished itself during the Trump era by flinging itself headlong into high altitude Trump Derangement Syndrome. With news that President ordered the targeted assassination of one of the world’s most prolific terrorists when the latter landed on Iraqi soil, Leftist Hollywood celebrities have reacted predictably.

"The award for most over-the-top reaction has to go to Rose McGowan, who gave Iran a groveling apology. In true Hollywood fashion, she called America under President Trump “a terrorist regime,” an interesting point from a woman who’s been unfazed by Iran’s deadly contempt for its own citizens and its brutal repression of women and homosexuals:" . . .

. . . 

"Alyssa Milano, showing her fealty to the Democrat primary candidates, retweeted their pronouncements on the targeted strike, all of which echoed Rep. Chris Murphy to the effect that America should never kill bad guys because other bad guys might get mad:

"Several celebrities were very excited that President Trump, in 2011, predicted that Obama would start a war with Iran to get reelected. Alyssa Milano, who can always be counted on to come out against Trump, was one of those:

. . . 

"The Hollywood left never disappoints. Because it's still early in California as this post goes up, we can expect that Hollywood celebrities will provide us with more amusement today as they make other over-the-top pronouncements about President Trump's decisive response to Iran's targeted attack against America." . . .

Death Star Trump slays constellation of terrorists, leaving Democrats stamping their feet and wagging their fingers "Following that sleazy little Benghazi redux act, President Trump came down down like a slaying angel on terrorists across the Middle East, fat comfortable ones who'd always gotten away with what they've always gotten away with, counting on U.S. fear and appeasement to Iran. Ace of Spades has a magnificent list of how many turned into grease spots on the desert floor. In the ruins of the airstrikes, the terrorists now know that when Trump said 'this is not a warning, it is a threat,' it meant their best course of action was to run screaming for the hills, not thumb their noses, posture for the press about being unafraid, and plot another one. The other message they took from the glowing rubble is that the era of Jimmy Carter and Barack Obama is over." . . .

Alyssa Milano’s Call For Abortion Stories Provokes Astonishing Pro-Life Testimonies

"Milano’s tweet reads, “If you’d like to share your personal abortion story on my podcast to help shine a light on the importance of bodily autonomy, please record story on your voice memo app and email it to below address. If you’d like to remain anonymous please say so in your email. #SorryNotSorry”

"Milano retweeted a post from her “Sorry Not Sorry” podcast account, which is below her original tweet. The tweet reads, “Nearly one in four women in the United States will have an abortion by age 45. Do you want to share your story on #SorryNotSorry? /  Email Submissions@sorrynotsorrypod.com”
"While the post generated a variety of responses, it also caught the attention of pro-life women, including women and men suffering from previous abortions."

Wolf: Abortion Gave Her A God Complex   You recall Wolf's insulting speech against Sarah Huckabee Sanders I'm sure.
"How a man could get past the screechy nails-on-a-chalkboard voice that comes out of this woman’s mouth is beyond me let alone impregnate her.

"We have Alyssa Milano shouting about being an angry premenopausal woman and Michelle Wolf discussing great comedic topics to tickle the funny bone such as period equality and abortion. Oh, yay. Now comes Wolf’s latest on her Netflix comedy special, The Joke Show:

You can feel any way that you want after an abortion,. Get one! See how you feel! You know how my abortion made me feel? Very powerful. You know how people say you can’t play God? I walked out of there being like, ‘Move over, Morgan Freeman. I am God!'”-Michelle Wolf

. . . "Do it, see how you feel! This is what passes for comedy amongst the liberal left. Women discussing period equality and how they felt powerful and God-like after getting that “whoops” from a night of indiscretion taken care of once and for all. Hilarious. So damn funny, my sides are splitting and I nearly wet my pants.

It’s so ironic that Trump could be the guy who ends legal abortion. That dude has been responsible for more abortions than the invention of back alleys. Look, access to abortion is good and important. Some people say abortion is ‘killing a baby.’ It’s not. It’s stopping a baby from happening. It’s like Back to the Future and abortion is the DeLorean.”-Michelle Wolf
