Washington, D.C. residents, including students, can soon read a book by Tara Reade, who has accused the president of sexually assaulting her.
“I was asked to respond to your inquiry about Tara Reade’s book Left Out: When the Truth Doesn’t Fit In,” a D.C. Public Library staffer wrote to me on Wednesday. “I was able to find it listed in one of our vendor’s ordering databases, so [I] have placed an order for this title.”
The purchase finalizes a quest that began in September 2022 when I first sought to see if the D.C. library would expand its offerings, given First Lady Jill Biden’s statement that “all books” belong in libraries.
The comments were presumably in reference to states like Florida that have sought to protect kids from being exposed to pornographic materials in school libraries or in the classroom.
