YouTube Description
as posted by the channelHouse Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., offered strong support for former Vice President Joe Biden as a person of integrity as he has addressed an allegation of sexual assault from the mid-1990s.
Pelosi praised him as a "person of great value."
"I want to remove all doubt in anyone's mind, I have a great comfort level with the situation as I see it. With all the respect in the world for any woman who comes forward. I have the highest regard for Joe Biden. And that's what I have to say about that," Pelosi said.
Her comments came in response to a reporter's question on Thursday on how Democrats reconcile their support for Biden given their opposition to the Supreme Court nomination of Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
Biden's campaign has denied the allegation from his former Senate staffer Tara Reade, who has said Biden assaulted her in the basement of a Capitol Hill office building in the 1990s. But the story garnered fresh attention this week after two of Reade's associates said she previously told them about elements of her allegations.
