Joe should have been ready for so obvious a question, didn't seem like he was. He stuck to his script of denying anything ever happened and saying a record wouldn't exist, but he had no explanation for why he wouldn't let a search occur
Not to mention, the obsession over whether a complaint exists seems like a red herring argument. In 1993, if a woman raised a sexual harassment complaint and got fired for it by an unethical senate office, it seems very unlikely to me they'd file a record of that complaint anyway. Why does anyone think there would be one? Has Tara Reade explicitly said she filed a formal complaint, not just 'raised it at the office and got nowhere' as it was described? It stretches credulity to figure they'd both unceremoniously fire her for speaking out against Joe, then leave a paper trail saying Joe was accused by her.

what should exist is some kind of contemporaneous record of her firing and whatever reason or excuse they used. There should exist some record in which they use at least an excuse, or spin of events at the time. It could be a feeble pretense, it could be a retelling of her story labeling it false, it could just be an intentionally vague description like 'personal issue'. But while we already have numerous witnesses recounting how she got abruptly fired, Joe's only defense was to point to people who didn't remember her at all, even though he acknowledges she worked there.

So a bare minimum would be getting the staff record. How can Joe pretend that there's no relevant staff records? Unless he destroyed them, I gues

There's a distinction between what journalists are doing and what news networks choose to devote their hours to. There's been reporting on this sexual assault case... but the reason it's not getting covered much in primetime(outside of Fox) is the coronavirus.


Let me add: if this was a Trump accusation with the same level of credibility, it would get more coverage right now than Tara Reade's accusation is getting on television news. My point still stands on coronavirus.

also journalists seem to be calling out Joe on twitter over this interview:
https://twitter.com/NicoleEinbinder/status/1256216361941872641

"Joe Biden said that Tara Reade's complaint could only be at the National Archives, at what was then called the Office of Fair Employment Practices. But, a National Archives spokesperson told me that they do not hold records from that office.
Instead, a Senate Historical Office staffer said the Fair Employment Practices records are governed by a Senate resolution mandating that "records containing personal privacy, information closed by statute, and records of executive nomination are closed for 50 years."That staffer said that rules for filing a complaint to the Office of Fair Employment Practices were complicated and that it was possible that a staffer attempting to do so without proper guidance may not have taken the necessary steps to get an investigation started.
According to congressional testimony from 1995, 479 people contacted the office between 1992 and 1995 seeking assistance. Of those, only 102 entered the office's five-step "dispute resolution" process, which included a formal complaint and hearing.
If Reade's complaint was filed to the Office of Fair Employment Practices, the record will remain closed until 2043 — more than two decades from now.
It's also important to note that Reade isn't just looking for the complaint. She has other reasons for wanting the University of Delaware to unseal the records:"



It sounds almost certain based on her description that there is no formal dispute resolution process record of her complaint, because you do not enter into that process without realizing it. If she just raised her complaint to the office and tried to talk to 'managers' about it, that would leave no such formal record in the OFEP. If she had gone through that process, she'd know. If all she did was talk to people and get fired, no such record.

you also have to give Mika some credit here
she missed some obvious bits like failing to lay out the corroborating evidence in Reade's accusation for watchers, but she definitely stuck to a hard line of questioning and didn't give Joe a free pass on his denials.
I was figuring when Joe booked this that it was going to be a complete farce. But I doubt that was scripted. She laser focused on those delaware records, even if they wind up being a big red herring, and Joe didn't seem ready

These allegations are an irrelevant distraction. All that matters is winning in the next election. People need to stick by their party when its hard as when its easy. There is NO proof of these allegations, there are inconsistencies and the evidence could have been fabricated, some journalists have investigated and found no substance to the story. And just look at the other side, they're worse. This could have been a dirty operation by them to influence the election. Our guy has a spotless record and has been in public service for decades, stuff like this never came up once. So I tell you, an accusation with no evidence, no proof and so many character witnesses against it can't destroy a man's career. Remember that the people propping up this allegation are politically motivated, that her story has been inconsistent, and most of all that the only thing that matters is voting for your party in the next election. The primary is over, the candidate has been chosen, its time to stick with him.

And that's why I proudly endorse Roy Moore for senate 2018.
