who knows the real truth but we do know that Biden has a habit of touching young girls (and women) in ways that are cringeworthy. Whether or not that's sexual or not I don't know if even Joe knows. He likes to be nude in the pool as we learned when he was VP and this was disturbing to some female SS members.
I'm saying I would not be surprised at all if this was true given the behavior he's displayed.
Sorry, it’s The NY Times.You must be talking about this opinion piece from Maureen Callahan. She hasn't fact checked the story. She just repeats what National File has said about the contents of Ashley Biden's diary.., but in the text of her column, she makes it clear that she has not verified the validity of the story herself. She is simply taking their reporting at face value.
Bidens as dysfunctional as the Kennedys — and protected by the press
About halfway down Maureen Callahan writes this :
"If these entries aren't Ashley Biden's why not publicly say so?"
^^^ That ^^^ is not confirming a report. That is taking a report from National File at face value, just because Ashley Biden hasn't publicly denied it. That is not a fact check... and her reasoning is terrible. She is basically saying that anything is true, unless it's denied. It doesn't work that way.
No, that is not how it works. How do you prove a negative? You can't. So she is better off not saying anything about it. The burden of proof rests with those who are making the allegations. The burden of proof rests with Project Veritas and National File.Ashley Biden seems to be pretty solid. She wrote it until proven she didn’t. If she didn’t write it, why the all in on getting the diary back?
It's sad that your political affiliation has you in such denial. I agree with you that the diary was obtained in an illegal manner. It was left behind, abandoned, and apparently not secure, by Ashley Biden, but it was still not their property to take. It seems they tried to sell it to the Trump campaign, but the Trump campaign actually encouraged them to take it to the FBI. But as you continue to say Ashley hasn't come forward to verify she said those things, I also can't find where she's said she didn't say those things. The diary has been verified as belonging to her, and she hasn't come forward to say the published excerpts are false. It seems you're willing to overlook possible child molestation to support your political beliefs. You're proving everything I've told you in other threads about how you put your politics above all else. You're showing yourself to exactly what you claim Trumpers to be, but for the Democrats.I would have concerns for Ashley Biden, if she had actually written those things in her diary ... but she didn't.
Not at all, but this logic that something is true until it's denied is ridiculous.It seems you're willing to overlook possible child molestation to support your political beliefs.
The diary is real, but it has not been verified that Ashley Biden wrote passages concerning sexual abuse at the hands of her father. If you know of a source that isn't National File, Project Veritas, or The Gateway Pundit, which has verified the contents of the diary then post a link to that source. I've looked hard for a source and National File and The Gateway Pundit are all I can find.Facts ...
The diary has been confirmed as real.

The "source" is a diary that's been acknowledged is hers. She hasn't come out and denied it, thus far. Even if she does, I hope it's investigated to prove one way or the other. I actually hope it's not true but combine this with his creepy actions towards women and little girls, and yes, I have serious doubts. Child molesters are the most evil people among us, IMO. I hope our POTUS isn't one, even if I'm not a fan of his. But if he is, he should be put down like a dog. And yes, I think all child molesters should be put down, this isn't singular to Biden.Not at all, but this logic that something is true until it's denied is ridiculous.
I doubt the validity of this story for 2 reasons :
1) The sources aren't credible. Everyone should be familiar with Project Veritas and their agenda.
2) It's too similar to PizzaGate, and too convenient to a narrative that these sources have wanted to advance - that Joe Biden is a child molester.

PV has exposed a lot of the protections/corruptions in Washington. You don’t have to believe them, the video speaks for itself.Not at all, but this logic that something is true until it's denied is ridiculous.

Because these claims have been made by very low profile sources which are not credible. If she was to "go on every liberal news network" denying that she wrote those things, she would be bringing attention to a story that not a lot of people are aware of = giving it oxygen. If Fox News was to report this as factual, then yes, she should speak out against it if it isn't true.If it's false, why isn't Ashley Biden on every liberal news network saying such?
Okay, why not go on one network, CNN, and categorically deny everything. Why not nip it in the bud before it turns into a raging fire?Because these claims have been made by very low profile sources which are not credible.

Fox news did report on it. There 40 different entries reporting on it. You must have missed them all.Because these claims have been made by very low profile sources which are not credible.

It won't turn into a "raging fire" as long as it stays in the realm of sources like Project Veritas, National File and The Gateway Pundit. However, if a more high-profile source picks it up, then you have to act ... assuming it isn't true.Okay, why not go on one network, CNN, and categorically deny everything.

There is not a report in The New York Times which has confirmed that Ashley Biden wrote passages in her diary about being molested by her dad. There are reports in The New York Times that have confirmed the existence of the diary, but not its contents. You are dead wrong. On other sources, you might have a chance here... but not The Gray Lady. I read it every day.Fox news did report on it. There 40 different entries reporting on it. You must have missed them all.
