Tara Reade, who accused Joe Biden of sexual assault, is suing the Department of Justice for $10 million, alleging emotional distress and violations of her rights.
Her lawyer claims the FBI conducted suspicious activities, including disruptions in her bank accounts and the disappearance of a manuscript detailing her allegations.
Reade’s attorney argues that the FBI’s actions are an attempt to silence and intimidate her, and calls for accountability.
“The United States should not have a two-tiered justice system,” Reade’s attorney Jonathan Levy stated.
“If President Trump and Mr. Giuliani can be assessed tens of millions in damages for their words; a weaponized FBI that seeks to silence, intimidate and eliminate Joe Biden’s victim, Tara Reade, must also be held accountable; failing to do so means our justice and legal system has become an instrument of political oppression and suppression.”
Reade had accused Biden of assault in 2020, which he denied, and last year, she moved to Russia due to safety concerns.
