A former aide to President Joe Biden, back when he was a U.S. Senator from Delaware, wants the House of Representatives to open up a formal inquiry into her allegations of being sexually assaulted by Biden in 1993.
Tara Reade made headlines in 2020 with her allegations, which were denied by Biden and by multiple members of Biden’s staff. Amid a welter of claims against her credibility, that she fought back against, she ultimately dialed back her public efforts against Biden.
Now, with the House in Republican hands for the first time since she went public with her claims, she wants Republicans to launch an inquiry.
“It would be a very different thing if I could testify under oath,” Reade said in a new interview with the Daily Caller.
She said she would “provide whatever information [Congress] needed and [Congress] could ask me whatever questions they wanted.”

“I think we need to have the conversation, instead of me being erased, and other women that were erased that tried to come forward,” Reade said.

Reade claimed that Biden penetrated her with his fingers after he had her pinned up against a wall.
Although staffers from that era have said they do not recall any such incident, Reade said a formal inquiry would produce a different story.

If they “had to go under oath, I think they would have to admit something very different,” Reade said.
Reade said that she dropped her initial efforts to follow up on a claim she said she filed because of intimidation.
“I was 28 years old, it was scary to hear at the time. It was at the beginning of my political career, and it kind of shut me up,” Reade said.
Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado said she would support a formal inquiry to get at the truth.
