Pretty much undoes her whole alleged story. Geez.

It didn’t go so well for him with ultra-Lib Mika.

He did fine.

And get your story straight. Is the lib press ignoring this or did (according to you) Mika crucify Joe? You can’t have it both ways.

It went fine, and Mika is really far from ultra liberal. She and Joe had Trump on speed dial for years.

Why not?

Because he's not President (yet) so he can't tell the FBI what to do.

I noticed he’s not REQUESTING an FBI investigation.

Why?

I could request the FBI look into something and they won’t do it. Why? Because they don’t report to me. They don’t report to Biden, either.

Now Trump could request an investigation, and the FBI could launch its own investigation. But they haven’t. Why? Maybe because they know they won’t come up with anything solid.

I would like to hear Joe invite an FBI investigation to clear his name.

Because the republican administration won’t do it on its own. And why is that? Because then they’d be asked to look into Trump’s accusers.

How about a deal: Biden can ask the FBI to look into Reade’s allegations and Trump will ask the FBI to look into the 24 allegations against him.

The FBI doesn’t have jurisdiction.

The Barr should give it to them and we can investigate Joe and Tara and Hunter and anybody else responsible for Benghazi and also the CareBears Massacre.

Reade herself filed a report with MPD, which is now inactive. That’s the one she preferred?

She’s all over the place about EVERYTHING. Here’s her original story about why she left Biden’s office - now she says she was fired.

The inconsistencies in her story are absurd.

It is also very common for them to remember some details vividly and other details are very hazy. People who experience trauma don't always act in the way that you might expect. There is a lot of shame and confusion and guilt and self doubt and humiliation and that impacts what someone says and does and what they share when and to whom. People also may not remember details that weren't important as when the brain is in trauma mode, it ignores certain things to focus on the threat. Sensory experiences are often clearer than other details. Timelines are often confused and changing. Some details are withheld because the person doesn't want to talk about that aspect.

Disclosure and recall are often impacted by the traumatic experience. In any case - this one or any case where someone discloses sexual violence, you can't conclude it didn't happen because s/he didn't immediately give a full detailed account that never changed in any way.

Immediately??? It has been DECADES.

And she started talking more than a month ago. That should have been enough time to get your story straight.

But when you aren't telling the truth it is hard to keep the details straight.

You should look at the case of Jian Ghomeshi in Canada. He was accused of sexual assault (and criminally charged) by 5 different women. They came forward about 10 years after the alleged attacks. There were multiple other people who had seen what they considered inappropriate behaviour and sexual harrassment by JG and some had also experienced it but didn't want to come forward publicly. It went to trial, however the alleged victims stories had inconsistencies. They forgot details and got confused. In the end he was found not guilty due to the inconsistencies of the testimonies. There was a lot of discussion by trauma specialists and experts who felt that it wasn't that these 5 women 9and the other women who corroborated their stories) all just lied and made up stories of things that never happened - it was that their recollection and ability to talk about it was impacted by the trauma.

To add, this was the process and context for complaints in the 1993 timeframe this allegedly took place
