He’s not exactly Roman emperor Tiberius, who reportedly would swim au naturel with young boys he called his little “fish.” But whether it has been sniffing young girls’ hair, touching them oddly, delivering unwelcome kisses, or talking about children manually brushing his leg hair in a pool, Joe Biden has raised many an eyebrow. Now he’s raising them again, too, with one writer saying he took “creepiness to a whole new level when he discussed ‘a new civil rights cause of action’ for people whose naked images ended up in the hands of blackmailers.”
It wasn’t the cause commentator Andrea Widburg took issue with; it’s fine, she says, as far as it goes. Rather, it’s what Biden stated, apparently instinctively, while pushing the cause. “I bet everybody knows somebody…that in an intimate relationship, what happened was the guy takes a revealing picture of his naked friend, or whatever, in a compromising position and then blackmails [the person],” he said Wednesday at an event celebrating the Violence Against Women Act’s reauthorization.
About this Widburg states, “Biden’s assumption that we’ve all been there or know someone who has tells me he lives in a world of sexual exhibitionism and potential blackmail that is alien to most Americans.”
Some may say this is reaching, and it might not have warranted notice were it not for Biden’s history of odd remarks and behavior. But that history certainly exists, as Widburg illustrates with the following video.
What’s more, the statement in the above video that “no accusations of sexual harassment have been leveled against [Biden]” is no longer true. As the liberal New Republic wrote in 2019 in “When the Cool Uncle Becomes the Creepy Uncle,” two “women have accused the former vice president of unwanted touching: Lucy Flores said he kissed the back of her head at a campaign event in 2014, and Amy Lappos said he ‘put his hand around my neck and pulled me in to rub noses with me’ at a fundraiser in 2009.” Other women have also accused Biden of inappropriate contact.
What’s more, a young lady named Eva Murry accused Biden of having inappropriately commented on her breast-area development at a 2008 event, when she was 14.
The above does essentially accord with what we’ve witnessed Biden do in front of cameras. More seriously still, however, lifelong Democrat and former Biden staffer Tara Reade claims that then-senator Biden actually sexually assaulted her in 1993 (video below).
Returning to Widburg, she also present a 2020 video (below) dealing with the matter of “grooming” children and Biden’s on-camera behavior with little girls.
“Then there was the claim from investigative reporter Ronald Kessler that ‘Biden has a habit of swimming in his pool nude’ — despite the presence of female Secret Service agents,” Widburg reminds us.
And recognizing that the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, the commentator continues:
Knowing about Biden’s behavior, somehow it wasn’t all that surprising that Hunter Biden’s laptop revealed that Hunter had his own share of sexual weirdness. It turned out that Hunter loved videotaping himself with prostitutes as well as just struttin’ his own equipment for his video camera. It’s not unreasonable to suspect that, when the meth-addled Hunter was following his father around to places such as China, the authorities took advantage of his known preferences and arranged for a spot of blackmail.
I haven’t seen any proof that Hunter likes little girls … except for Hunter’s own anger at the fact that his brother’s widow told Hunter’s therapist that Hunter was “sexually inappropriate” around “girls.”
It is, again, in light of the above that Biden’s “new civil rights cause” comments (video below) may assume deeper, darker meaning.
As for these comments, it is true that people, eventually and always, give themselves away. Coming to mind is when I was with a man I knew and almost out of the blue — his comment really was beyond our conversation’s context — he blurted out, “What’s wrong with sex?!” Something was apparently preoccupying him, and I was quite sure I knew what it was:
I’d already strongly suspected he was cheating on his wife.
Also coming to mind is how the late Paul Gebhard — right-hand man of discredited “sex researcher” Alfred Kinsey — once addressed how the people they worked with collected “data” on the “sexual responses” of children, some in infancy. He casually explained in a 1992 interview (I’ve seen the video) that employed were “oral and manual techniques.”
Why the man I knew blurted out his question is simple: People generally have a desire to justify their wrongdoing. But what explains Gebhard’s casual reference to extreme perversion and sexual abuse?
When people engage in a behavior or entertain an idea for long enough, they become inured to it. As one man put it in an online comment years ago, “It only seems like perversion the first time.”
Oh, this doesn’t mean they’ll expound in detail upon their bizarre predilections; it does, however, mean they’ll sometimes forget themselves and reveal glimmers of what lies within, not realizing at the moment how what has become normal to them is shockingly abnormal to the actually normal.
Inurement may explain Biden’s very public inappropriate touching, and that along with a desire for justification may account for his projection-based assumption that Hunter-like lifestyles are more common than they are.
The bigger issue, given what we know about the Bidens, is what kind of blackmail material hostile foreign actors may have on the man occupying the White House.
