“showers with my dad (probably not appropriate).”
This is not a substantiated claim of abuse — it’s a snippet taken out of private writing, not evidence of any criminal or abusive conduct. There is no independent confirmation that the private diary excerpts accurately reflect reality or that they mean what you suggest. The diary’s contents were taken and distributed without consent, and context is generally lacking. Ashley Biden acknowledged in court filings that the diary was hers and that others had “grossly misinterpreted” her personal writings and spread “false accusations that defame my character.” She said the contents had been “constantly distorted and manipulated.” She did not publicly confirm any allegation of inappropriate behavior by her father. Rather, she objected to how her private words were weaponized. No credible news organization, judicial finding, or independent verification confirms that Joe Biden showered with his daughter in an inappropriate way. Ashley has not publicly accused her father of abuse.
