I’m trying to imagine how the media would react if a Republican did this in relation to one of their allies being accused. We can ascertain fairly confidently that it wouldn’t be positive, but Nancy Pelosi is a Democrat so she can get away with this.
The House Majority Leader proclaimed today that the sexual assault case against Joe Biden is “closed” and chastised the MSNBC anchor for asking her about it.
Daily Caller ✔ @DailyCaller Speaker Nancy Pelosi says that the Tara Reade sexual assault allegation against Joe Biden is a "closed issue" and that she "believes him when he says it didn't happen."
"I'm not going to answer this question again."
I love how after Pelosi says she won’t answer the question again, the anchor just nods, lets her spew about how innocent Biden is for a full minute, and then just moves on. There was no push back, nor follow-up pointing out her hypocrisy on this issue. Let’s recall that Pelosi was very rough on Kavanaugh, demanding the vote for his confirmation be delayed until there was a “thorough investigation” into the “credible” allegations against him.
Joe Biden gets a complete pass, though, because he’s on her team. At this point though, it’s hard for me to blame Pelosi for playing hardball. No one in the mainstream media will press any Democrat on this issue, whereas Republicans were made to answer questions consistently about Kavanaugh all the way through his confirmation and even after. The double standard is stark.
If we had a media capable of being anything other than hopelessly biased, they’d be pressing hard on Democrats to explain why Tara Reade isn’t “credible” but Blasey Ford was. In reality, there is far more corroborating evidence of Reade’s allegation than any made against Kavanaugh. But instead of hitting the ground running and digging for the truth, the media have actually attempted to abdicate their duty altogether, with the Times laughably suggesting the DNC investigate the matter.
Pelosi is a flaming hypocrite and she needs to be made to answer for it. Joe Biden saying “I didn’t do it” is not at all the standard they’ve held for any Republican who’s been accused. They don’t get to change the rules of the game now. Not even a little bit.
The Queen has Spoken.
Don't try, the media is a Left wing activist group.
The seriousness of the charges only goes one way.

The Founders passionately believed in a free press. Hence the First Amendment, designed to protect the press from external attacks. Little did the Founders know that the press would destroy itself from within.
Same result, though. When the free press dies, democracy dies.
WTF?
The utter gall and hypocrisy of these people and she’s rumored to be leading the charge on extending the lockdown by the blue state governors and mayors to further damage the economy.
F’em - vote em out. Volunteer at all the polling centers and places and ensure there are no voting shenanigans this year.
If they will act this blatantly about our economy and about their own ideology they claim to hold dear - you cannot trust them with the ballots.
Keep asking anyway.
Pelosi is a flaming hypocrite and she needs to be made to answer for it.

She was never made to answer for falsely certifying Obama to Hawaii and not certifying him eligible to any other state

wow. just wow.
Really!!!!!!!!! Her and her ilk shows us how hypocritical the left are. So now they do not care about women, think women lie, and now attack her.
And just like that...
Did her lapdog press agree with that?
They are trying to suppress the truth but I think even the high and mighty globalist combine is biting off more than it can chew.
Look at what is happening concerning some of the top media guys who sexually exploited women who were their co-workers. They may have exploited the issue against Republicans while arrogantly believing that it would never bite them in the butt, but they were blinded by their own power and conceit.
There is now a split in the Democrat party between women and men. Women who were dedicated Democrats have been victims of the lechery of the Democrat power structure both in politics and the media. The chickens have come home to roost.
Sounds like at least NBC is finally getting looked at for their criminal behavior.
“It’s over when I say it’s over”
“But but..”
“Don’t force me to restore order”
Newsom’s aunt
Basically she has told the media to not ask her, and the media will not ask her now.
It is truly disgusting how hypocritical the left are.
Everything is political for them, whether this virus, border, illegals, killing a terrorist from Iran etc.
All you socialist lurkers out there who are reading this then you are pathetic, and disgusting, get a grip of yourselves and see you are nothing but a drone for that party
Soon the parrot media will start calling the Tara Reade charges a “conspiracy theory”.
There are millions of feminist activists and they will not keep their mouths shuts.
