Joe Biden knows “it takes courage to speak out against sexual assault” and once tweeted out that if any of his followers “know someone who has stepped up to the front lines of this fight, I want to hear about it.”

“Nominate them today,” he added in a 2018 tweet with a link to a Biden courage award sign-up sheet.

It takes courage to speak out against sexual assault, or to step in to stop it from happening. If you know someone who has stepped up to the front lines of this fight, I want to hear about it. Nominate them today, because #ItsOnUs to change the culture: https://t.co/BWR83Bx5FX — Joe Biden (@JoeBiden) February 28, 2018

Twitchy reports the tweet is making its rounds again as former Bill Clinton accuser Juanita Broaddrick reshared it and nominated Tara Reade, the woman who alleges Biden sexually assaulted her when she worked for his Senate office.

“Joe……I would like to nominate Tara Reade,” her tweet read.

Joe……I would like to nominate Tara Reade. https://t.co/M463n1fMXJ — Juanita Broaddrick (@atensnut) April 27, 2020

The Intercept reports:

Reade has claimed to various media outlets, including The Intercept, that she told her mother, a close friend, and her brother about both the harassment and, to varying degrees of detail, the assault at the time. Her brother, Collin Moulton, and her friend, who has asked to remain anonymous, both confirmed that they heard about the allegations from Reade at the time. Reade’s mother died in 2016, but both her brother and friend also confirmed Reade had told her mother, and that her mother, a longtime feminist and activist, urged her to go to the police. — Advertisement —

In interviews with The Intercept, Reade also mentioned that her mother had made a phone call to “Larry King Live” on CNN, during which she made reference to her daughter’s experience on Capitol Hill. Reade told The Intercept that her mother called in asking for advice after Reade, then in her 20s, left Biden’s office. “I remember it being an anonymous call and her saying my daughter was sexually harassed and retaliated against and fired, where can she go for help? I was mortified,” Reade told me.

Several people online magnified the tweet, encouraging Broaddrick for standing up to the presidential candidate:
