Wait for the investigations

M$NBComcast just played a clip

Add link, snip
President Joe Biden said Sunday he wants to see what comes of an investigation into allegations of sexual harassment against New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo when asked if the Democratic governor should resign.

"I think the investigation is underway and we should see what it brings us," Biden told reporters on the White House South Lawn, explicitly weighing in on the allegations against the governor for the first time.

Hey Joe, remember that Tara Reade fiasco. Lit up every headline & then a loud thud..aaaand silence.

Hey, Joe, remember that Hunter Biden blast from Rudy?
Me either..barely at best.

Thanks for making your statement on Gov Cuomo investigation.

As Biden rises, Lucy Flores watches from a distance

"Lucy Flores, a former Nevada state legislator, accused Joe Biden last spring of smelling her hair and kissing the back of her head at a 2014 rally in Las Vegas."
WAPO/2019

Not a murmur of the" scandal" since then, either.

There's a defining pattern here....

Funny thing, Biden is about a foot taller than Flores, he'd have to be a contortionist to do that! Yet minutes later this:

The majority of NY's congressional members have done the same. But we should not talk or post about it. Ok.....

if there is something going on with another Democrat.

They never asked Republicans how they felt about Trump paying porn stars for sex.

We Asked Republicans Why They Think Trump’s Lawyer Gave A Porn Star $130,000
They insisted they’re preoccupied with more weighty matters.
By Igor Bobic

WASHINGTON ― The personal attorney of the president of the United States acknowledged this week that he paid an adult film star $130,000 just before the 2016 presidential election. The bombshell admission would have almost certainly rocked any previous administration, raising a whole host of questions, like, “Did this in any way violate campaign finance law?” and, “Dear God, why would the president’s lawyer ever pay a porn star?”

Republican lawmakers, however, said on Wednesday they had no interest whatsoever in the matter. They ducked and dodged questions about the payment, explaining they were not closely following a story about a president and a porn star. Some begged off inquiries by saying they were wholly engrossed by this week’s ongoing debate over immigration in the Senate.

“That’s the least thing on my mind right now,” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) told HuffPost.

Graham, who was one of the House prosecutors in the impeachment trial of President Bill Clinton, added he was “not remotely curious” about why the lawyer paid a porn star $130,000 shortly before Donald Trump won the White House race.
