Rep. Ilhan Omar has declared her support for Joe Biden victim Tara Reade, warning the sexual assault allegations being made against the presumptive Democratic nominee should not be ignored.
In an interview with the Sunday Times, Rep. Omar said she trusted Reade’s claim that Joe Biden violently sexually assaulted her in the halls of Congress when she was working for him in 1993.
“I do believe Reade,” she told the British newspaper.

“Justice can be delayed, but should never be denied.”
According to the interviewer, Rep. Omar added that if it was up to her, Biden would not be the Democratic nominee.
Breitbart.com reports: Omar’s comments underlined the sharp divisions between the Democratic Party establishment and its growing number of far-left lawmakers, all of whom opposed Biden’s candidacy.
Despite being cheerleaders of the #MeToo anti-sexual harassment movement, practically all major party figures (including Biden himself) have ignored or dismissed the allegations outright, having previously argued that all women should be believed whether or not they can provide evidence.
Meanwhile Omar’s most prominent ally in Congress, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), admitted last week that it “certainly seems as though something has happened.” Both women were strong supporters of Bernie Sanders’s unsuccessful bid for the nomination.
“There have been investigative journalists that have corroborated certain aspects of her account — that is undeniable — [and] have raised questions about other aspects of her account,” Ocasio-Cortez told NPR. “I’m not sure. Frankly, this is a messy moment, and I think we need to acknowledge that — that it is not clear-cut.”
Biden, who has been accused of misconduct by seven other women, has fervently denied the allegations, and he claims not to even remember who Reade is. Last week, he even called on voters who believed her account not to vote for him in November.
“I think they should vote their heart, and if they believe Tara Reade, they probably shouldn’t vote for me,” he said on MSNBC’s The Last Word with Lawrence O’Donnell. “I wouldn’t vote for me if I believed Tara Reade.”

Since there’s no statute of limitations on murder let’s start with the boys on the tracks and work forward from there Let’s see justice being done For a change And let’s not spare all if the accessories and accomplices in their multitude of masks and disguises Let’s see the murdering drug peddling money laundering crooked corrupt most disgusting hypocrites and filthy low life scum bags locked up behind bars where they belong
Both Reade and Omar are hard-core Democrats, who have and will support Biden, inspite of his rape allegations. It did not take long for the #MeToo movement to disapear.
