There's not nearly enough attention paid to the very prominent role David Brock plays in Democratic Party messaging & dark operations, given that he's one of DC's sleaziest scumbags.

That's why Dems are doing to Tara Reade what he did to Anita Hill: they are the party of Brock:
In 2016, @LAtimes -- under the headline "Be Nice to Hillary Online or Risk a Confrontation With Her SuperPAC -- reported Brock was spending $1 million for an online army to attack Clinton critics. latimes.com/politics/la-na…

The Atlantic also reported it theatlantic.com/politics/archi…
That the Dem Party today has as one of its most well-funded & influential operatives the single sleaziest GOP operative - who earned his wings trashing Anita Hill as "a little bit nutty and a little bit slutty" - sheds much light on who Dems are & how they're attacking Reade.

Associated Press has found more corroborating evidence of Tara Reade's accusation against Biden: two more people who say she told them about it -- one when it allegedly occurred, the other in 2008. This is way more corroboration than many accusers have.

As for the omission of the assault in Reade's complaint, this has long been known, as @RyanGrim noted.

But I thought a main point of #MeToo was that victims often don't report at the time? Dr. Ford never did about Kavanaugh: even when he was nominated to the DC Court of Appeals.
Are we now back to presuming a female accuser is lying about her rape and/or assault if she did not file a criminal or otherwise official complaint at the time or shortly after the incident occurred? Because if that's now the standard again, it doesn't bode well for Dr. Ford.

That was a good interview of Biden by @morningmika: persistent, fair, with most relevant questions asked and asked again.
I would have liked to have heard what Biden thinks is the difference between Kavanaugh's case and his. Why should Christine Blasey Ford have been believed to the point of keeping Kavanugh off the Court, but not Tara Reade? I haven't heard anyone with a coherent answer to that.
As a reminder: here's what Brett Kavanaugh said when categorically denying the allegations of Christine Blasey Ford. It's very difficult to think of a cogent reason why those allegations should have been believed to keep him off the Court while Tara Reade's should be disbelieved:
