I had heard that her mother had called in anonymously asking what to do (cant remember whose show) if someone was having trouble with a Senator - but didn't specify it was sexual in nature - I assumed the problem was something that had happened in her termination.

(25,111 posts)P.S. I'm pretty sure VP Biden's attorneys have a sleuth of documents pertaining to her.
Me.
(35,454 posts)They would have had to fire her from the U.S. Senate.
By the way, people passing bad checks are supposedly among the hardest to "rehabilitate".
I heard that in the past from a couple different "addiction" experts.

If so, props to Biden for not taking a cheap shot which would have totally worked for him.

" A onetime aide sometimes named Tara Reade shes changed her name several times over the years has alleged that Biden essentially did to her what candidate Trump once bragged about doing to star-struck women. This supposedly in a Senate hallway 27 years ago. Biden has categorically denied the charge and called for the release of all available records, including the formal complaint that Reade says caused her to be fired.
Except Reade has no copy of her complaint, and nobody else can find it, either. She now says it never mentioned harassment or sexual assault anyway. I doubt it ever existed. She did tell versions of her tale of woe to a few friends along the way, although apparently none in Washington. As recently as 2017, she was regularly posting tweets in praise of my old boss Joe Biden, specifically for his efforts combating sexual assault.
By 2018, she had a new hero: Vladimir Putin. President Putin, she wrote in an opinion column, has an alluring combination of strength with gentleness. His sensuous image projects his love for life, the embodiment of grace while facing adversity.
President Putins obvious reverence for women, children and animals, and his ability with sports is intoxicating to American women. Waxing passionate, she wrote that like most women across the world, I like President Putin
a lot, his shirt on or shirt off.

"Reades ever-changing stories, trial lawyers point out, would make her a cross-examiners daydream. The first thing that comes to mind
, writes former federal prosecutor Michael J. Stern in USA Today, is that Reades amnesia about specifics makes it impossible for Biden to go through records and prove he could not have committed the assault, because he was somewhere else at the time.
But this thing isnt going to trial anywhere except Fox News and MSNBC. For that matter, a crime so vaguely described is impossible to investigate. In short, its the very definition of a clumsy smear."

(3,282 posts)It would set up a timeline that looks like this...
8/2/1993: Tara Reade is charged with a criminal offense for passing a bad check.
8/6/1993: Tara Reade is terminated from Joe Bidens Senate Office
8/11/1993: Tara Reade's mother calls into Larry King to complain about Joe Bidens office
Furthermore, from the SLO Paper today we now know that Tara Reade only filed a restraining order against her ex-husband 4 days AFTER HE filed for divorce.
I really feel like we are starting to see a pattern of TR trying to paint herself as the victim of abuse to cover for things like getting fired or a husband leaving her. These become the types of lies that you have to tell forever. This is the only story that fits all of the things that have been uncovered.
Reade gets a criminal charge for passing a bad check. Bidens office is informed and they decide to let her go. Distraught at being fired and not wanting anyone to know about the misdemeanor, she tells her mother that she was fired for complaining about harassment in Bidens office. Her Mother is upset and calls into Larry king a few days later. From that point on she has to keep up that story. She tells her husband, friends, and coworkers when the subject comes up.
