For the first time publicly, Former Vice President Joe Biden has denied allegations from a former staffer who says the then-senator sexually assaulted her.
During a Friday morning interview Biden said, “They aren’t true. This never happened.”
Last month Tara Reade, who worked for Biden’s Senate office in 1993, alleged publicly that Biden had sexually assaulted her in an empty corridor on Capitol Hill. She previously had accused him of inappropriate touching.
During the interview with MSNBC’s Mika Brzezinski, the former V.P., Biden focused on what he described as “inconsistencies” in Tara Reade’s story, saying that her telling of what happened had “changed repeatedly in both small and big ways."
