Original Note:
This video from 1985 has been misleadingly cropped to appear as if these are Biden’s own opinions. Biden (D-Del) was reading a memo at Wm Reynolds’ nomination hearing for Assoc AG, 6/5/85, using racial slurs attributed to LA legislators re: the New Orleans mayor. https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1985/06/24/reynolds-foes-claim-moral-high-ground/2eedf0ef-fa4e-4f35-9a61-ef8662dcd974/ https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSKBN2426G5/ https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSKCN24N2ZS/
