Biden’s sexual assault accuser calls for complaint records to be released: ‘Why are they under seal?’


Joe Biden’s sexual assault accuser, Tara Reade, is calling for the presumptive Democrat presidential nominee and former senator to authorize the University of Delaware to release locked-away staff records pertaining to his 36 years in the Senate.

In interviews this week, she said these records may contain the official complaint form she filed after Biden allegedly sexually assaulted her in 1993.

“I’m calling for the release of the documents being held by the University of Delaware that contain Biden’s staff personnel records because I believe it will have my complaint form, as well as my separation letter and other documents,” she said Tuesday to Fox News.

“Maybe if other staffers that have tried to file complaints would come to light — why are they under seal? And why won’t they be released to the public?”

Tara Reade says she filed a sexual harassment complaint with a senate personnel office. Biden’s camp denies this ever happened. If a record exists, it would be housed at @UDelaware but they are keeping Biden’s records sealed. https://twitter.com/RichMcHugh/status/1252683468007407619 …

And @UDelaware -- which houses the collection of Joe Biden's senatorial papers -- just confirmed to me that the papers "will remain closed to the public until two years after Mr. Biden retires from public life."

She’s maintained that after Biden allegedly assaulted her in ’93, she complained verbally to three fellow Biden staffers and then filed an official complaint with the “Senate personnel office.” While she doesn’t still have a copy of the complaint, she’s confident it may be tucked away in Biden’s official Senate records.

“Joe Biden, I want you to release all the personnel records from 1973 to 2009 and be transparent about your office practices,” she added in a statement to The Daily Caller.

“I would like to hold you accountable for what happened to me, to how your staff protected you and enabled you, bullied me multiple times into silence. You ended my career. You ended my job after you assaulted me. You claim to be the champion of women’s rights, but your public persona does not match your personal actions.”

The University of Delaware has thus far refused to provide anybody with access to the former senator’s records.

“The collection of former Vice President Biden’s senatorial papers is still being processed, with many items yet to be cataloged,” a spokesperson said this week in an email to Fox News. “The entire collection will remain closed to the public until two years after Mr. Biden...

FED Insiders Blow Roof Off Massive Harvard-China Medical Scandal; Obama Justice Dept. Killed & Covered Up FBI Probe of Harvard’s Lieber — The Top Chemist Recently Indicted as Chinese Agent




The Obama Justice Department scrubbed and covered up an FBI investigation into Harvard University’s top chemist Dr. Charles Lieber, years prior to the embattled professor’s recent January arrest by the FBI for secretly operating as an agent of the People’s Republic of China, according to high-ranking FBI insiders.

FED insiders are blowing the roof off the massive Harvard-China national security scandal stretching from Wuhan, China to the prestigious Ivy League, as detailed on the new episodes of the Moore Paine Show on Patreon and the Thomas Paine Podcast Ep. 21. The FBI could have put the brakes on Lieber’s crime spree that ultimately prospered wildly and kicked into high gear after Obama-era Attorney General Eric Holder shut the federal probe down. It must be noted: Barack Obama is a Harvard law school alum.

Years later, Lieber is now under indictment and Harvard is under a microscope. Paine said the FBI and Justice Department have grossly under-reported the illicit amount of cash Lieber was paid by...

FNC’s Carlson: ‘As We Fight This Virus, We Are Becoming Far More Like the Country That Spawned It’



Tuesday, during his show’s monologue, Fox News Channel’s Tucker Carlson decried Big Tech, as YouTube removed a video earlier in the day of two doctors from Bakersfield, CA, who held a press conference calling for the reopening of the country.

According to the Google-owned platform, the video violated its community guidelines. Carlson likened its removal to what might happen in China and argued that in the name of fighting the virus, the United States was becoming like China.

Partial transcript as follows:
CARLSON: Big companies partnering with the government to spy on you without your knowledge. Americans locked in their homes, banned from going to church, placated with sedatives like beer and weed. Anyone who speaks up is silenced. Political demonstrations are illegal. Organizers are arrested. Only opinions approved by unelected leaders are allowed on information platforms. Sound familiar? It sounds a lot like China. Of all the many ironies of this moment, so many of them bitter, the hardest to swallow is this: as we fight this virus, we are becoming far more like the country that spawned it. We’re becoming more like China. It’s horrifying.

It tells you everything that our professional class enthusiastically welcomes this. Over the weekend, The Atlantic magazine published an article by two academics calling for an end to freedom of speech in America. Their model for an idea system: the totalitarian government of China. Quote: “In the debate over freedom versus control of the Internet, China was largely correct, and the U.S. was wrong.” End quote. Read the whole thing. You should. It’s the future. We could quote from it for the rest of the show. But just one more. Quote: “Significant monitoring and speech control are inevitable components of a mature and flourishing internet, and governments must play a large role in these practices to ensure that the internet is compatible with a society’s norms and values.” End quote.

Norms and values? Whose? Our leaders’ norms and values, of course. But mostly their interests. Those in power are the ones that our...

Cattle Prices Plunge To GFC Lows Amid Soaring Food Prices















US live cattle futures plunged last week to levels not seen since the 2008-09 financial crisis as impacts from the coronavirus pandemic are being realized.

Livestock traders continue to exhibit concern that uncertainty for meat demand is a full year story as restaurants remain closed, and meatpacking facilities have shuttered operations leaving farmers with overcapacity among herds. 


Over the next 6-8 months, some form of social distancing will remain in place that will likely result in operation limitations for restaurants, plus consumers will live in fear of going out to their favorite eatery as there is still no adequate virus testing for the entire population and no proven vaccine. Also, concerns of a second virus wave materializing in the fall will keep people confined to their homes.

The closure of meatpacking plants has weighed on spot cattle prices as the rash of COVID-19 outbreaks at dozens of meatpacking plants across the country has quickly transformed into a crisis.

Around 150 of these facilities operate within counties where virus cases and deaths are exceptionally high.

A virus outbreak has been reported at many of these plants, resulting in the closure of at least 10-12 in April.

Every virus-related closure limits the ability for farmers to sell their animals and leads to overcapacity of herds at farms that now have to be culled. 

And while spot cattle prices are dropping, food prices are soaring. This dynamic has been explained in a prior piece titled "Hog-Culling Next As Meatpacking Plants Shutter Operations Stoking Food Shortage Fears In Weeks."

Misinformation Isn’t the Only Danger









Who gets to determine what’s “misinformation” and what’s not?

As social media companies, under pressure, move in a direction of imposing stricter rules about permissible content on their platforms, this is the question users should be asking.

Earlier this month, YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki said the video giant would be removing videos that go against World Health Organization recommendations on COVID-19.

Referring to “removing information that is problematic” and “anything that is medically unsubstantiated,” Wojcicki specifically called out certain suggestions of vitamins or other nutritional supplements as a treatment.

“So people saying, like, take vitamin C; you know, take turmeric, like, those are—will cure you. Those are the examples of things that would be a violation of our policy,” Wojcicki told CNN’s “Reliable Sources” April 19.

“Anything that would go against World Health Organization recommendations would be a violation of our policy,” she said.

Nor is YouTube the only social media organization deferring to the WHO. Facebook’s vice president of integrity, Guy Rosen, announced the social media site would direct people “who have liked, reacted or commented on harmful misinformation about COVID-19 that we have since removed” to a page with “myth-busters” by the U.N. agency.

But the World Health Organization has hardly been a stalwart fount of truth during the coronavirus crisis. Notably, it seemed all too willing to echo China’s talking points during the critical early days of the virus outbreak.

The WHO also has come under fire for its treatment of Taiwan. Taipei is not a member of the organization, due to pressure from China, which does not acknowledge Taiwan as an independent country.

Taiwan says a Dec. 31 email it sent to the WHO should have made clear there was a real threat of human-to-human transmission.

“To be prudent, in the email, we took pains to refer to atypical pneumonia, and specifically noted that patients [in China] had been isolated for treatment. Public health professionals could discern from this wording that there was a real possibility of human-to-human transmission of the disease,” said an April 11 release from the Taiwan Centers for Disease Control, which notes that Taiwan had not at that time had any cases of COVID-19.

Yet, on Jan. 14, the WHO tweeted, “Preliminary investigations conducted by the Chinese authorities have found no clear evidence of human-to-human transmission of the novel #coronavirus (2019-nCoV) identified in #Wuhan, #China.”


The WHO wasn’t claiming it had independently verified China’s claims. But given China’s incentive to portray COVID-19 as being under control and manageable, the world health body certainly should have taken Beijing’s claims with a grain of...

Oyster flatulence worries climate scientists


Please Note: This Is NOT Satire...

Plans to expand aquatic farming could have a serious knock-on effect on climate change, climate experts have warned after new research revealed that underwater shellfish farts produce 10% of the global-warming gases released by the Baltic Sea.

A study published in the Scientific Reports journal shows that clams, mussels and oysters produce one-tenth of methane and nitrous oxide gases in the Baltic Sea as a result of digestion. Therefore, researchers have warned that shellfish “may play an important but overlooked role in regulating greenhouse gas production”.

Methane and nitrous oxide gases have a far greater warming potential than carbon dioxide so bodies of water without or with fewer shellfish record lower methane release rates.

Increased synthetic fertiliser use and agricultural activities are known to have caused extensive nutrient enrichment in coastal waters and the study highlighted how this has been recognised as “the principal driver for the enhanced GHG flux from aquatic environments”.

Native European oysters that are certified as sustainable have gone on sale for the first time in the UK.

Shellfish in these ecosystems process the nutrients and release the gases as part of their regular biological processes. Farming of these organisms has been touted as a solution to nutrient pollution in bodies of water.

Recent figures estimate that around 10% of nitrous oxide emissions could come from shallow aquatic systems, while anything up to 40% of methane could come from shallow sediment, although there is no clear consensus on this aspect, due to huge variability.

The study authors insisted that although these creatures have been releasing greenhouse gases for millions of years without a noticeable impact on the climate, things could change now because of the growing human population, its impact on the environment and the plans to increase...
