The #MeToo movement has culminated into one of your all-time backfires. Joe Biden, one of the main proponents of having victims speak up about being the targets of sexual harassment, sexual assault, and rape, has been accused of sexual assault by Tara Reade, a former Senate staffer who worked in Biden’s office in the early 90s.

 

My guest today is Emily Larsen, she’s a political reporter with the Washington Examiner.

 

On today’s show, we’re going to look at Reade's sexual assault allegations made against Biden, whether her account stands up to scrutiny, and what might happen going forward.
