He’s expected to speak about Reade’s accusations for the first time since the incident took place back in 1993, when Biden served as a senator. Reade claimed Biden pushed her against the wall and put his hands under her clothes in an unwelcome sexual advance.
Props to @chrislhayes for being the first person on msnbc to cover Tara Reade. Please listen to her in her own words.

According to critics, MSNBC may create a more favorable setting for Biden to speak on the matter, due to a left-wing bias in its programming.
This came after Reade announced she would be willing to testify under oath. She has said Biden must be held accountable for his actions, including bullying and sexual harassment.
She’s called on the former vice president to release all documents related to his tenure as a senator. She’s also demanded a public apology from Biden for calling her a “Russian agent” to cover up his alleged sex crimes.
