New York House of Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, otherwise known as AOC, had a ‘messy moment’ when she dropped a bombshell about Joe Biden on National Public Radio’s Morning Edition, “It certainly seems as though something has happened. I’m not sure…frankly, this is a messy moment, and I think we need to acknowledge that — that it is not clear cut.”
Tara Reade has accused Biden of a sexual assault while she was a staffer for Biden when he was a Delwarae Senator in the early 1990s. While this moment might simply seem messy for Ocasio-Cortez, this event haunted Reade for decades, culminating in her revealing her horror with Creepy Joe Biden.
Reade’s fearsome moment occurred in the spring of 1993. She was assigned to deliver a duffel bag to then-senator Biden on Capitol Hill. Reade claims that Biden pinned her against the wall and penetrated her with his fingers without her consent. ‘At the time, Reade says she told her brother, her late mother and a friend,’ according to NPR.
Democrats Doubt Reade’s Moment
Ocasio-Cortez is not the only Democrat to doubt Reade’s frightening moment on Capitol Hill. Liberal Dianne Feinstein has also attacked Reade’s credibility. Feinstein told CNN’s Manu Raju that Reade’s accusations are “totally different” than Christine Blasey Ford’s allegations against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. Feinstein had provided Ford’s letter of allegations against Kavanaugh to the FBI.
Dianne Feinstein, ranking Democrat on Senate Judiciary, argued to us that the Kavanuagh situation is “totally different” than the Tara Reade allegations against Biden. "Kavanuagh was under the harshest inspection that we give people over a substantial period of time.”

In regards to Reade’s alleged moment, Feinstein stated to the press, ““And I don’t know this person at all who has made the allegations. She came out of nowhere. Where has she been all these years? He was Vice President…(and) to attack him in this way to me is absolutely ridiculous.”
You would assume the party that supports the #MeToo movement would support Reade as they supported Ford. However, Ocasio-Cortez and Feinstein are not the only female Democrats defending Creepy Joe.
Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi vindicated Biden’s response regarding Reade’s moment. Pelosi, who has endorsed Biden for president, spoke to CNN’s New Day host Alisyn Camerota and acknowledged being a “big, strong supporter of the #MeToo movement.”
Pelosi defended Biden by saying, “I am impressed with the people who worked for him at the time saying that they absolutely never heard one iota of information about this, nobody ever brought forth a claim or had anybody else tell them about such a claim.”
The Speaker of the House had an opposite attitude towards Kavanaugh during his hearings.
This morning, I took time to watch Christine Blasey Ford’s deeply moving opening statement. Thank you for your bravery, Dr. Ford. #BelieveSurvivors #KavanaughHearings pic.twitter.com/3IzD4TsVCU

Seems like a #MeToo moment predicates on whether the accused is a Democrat or Republican, according to the left. Just appraise comments from liberals such as Ocasio-Cortez, Feinstein, and Pelosi.
