Article here. Excerpt:

'Former vice president Joe Biden promised on Wednesday that as president he would reverse new due process protections that Education Secretary Betsy DeVos put in place to protect university students accused of sexual assault, saying they “shame and silence survivors, and take away parents’ peace of mind.”

Biden, who has recently been accused of sexual assault in 1993 by a woman who worked for him, said the new rules give colleges and universities a “green light to ignore sexual violence and strip survivors of their rights.”'

He's certain to lose. Why is he bothering? Really if he wanted to be sure a Dem will win in Nov. he should step aside and let the Dem Party elders decide who they think is electable in Nov. then run them. Biden has way too much baggage and is heading into dementia.

Sad to watch it really. Like watching a train wreck in slow motion.
