Shortly after announcing that he is running for President, Joe Biden, otherwise known as 'creepy uncle Joe' hired a former Obama adviser who previously provided "damage control" for the accused sexual abuser Harvey Weinstein.

The news broke yesterday that Biden had officially hired Anita Dunn.

Dunn is now a managing director at lobbying firm SKDKnickerbocker, and has already been advising Biden for some time, according to reports.

It was previously reported that Dunn was part of a team of legal advisors managing "damage control advice" to disgraced Hollywood executive Weinstein, who has been accused of rape from at least 14 women.

Dunn advised Weinstein after The New York Times exposed his history of predatory sexual abuse.

According to a statement by her lobbying firm, Dunn was not officially on Weinstein's payroll, but rather was "asked to speak with [Weinstein] by a friend."

"I met with him at the request of a friend and did not work for him. Period. There is actually nothing to report," Dunn added in a further statement, refusing to answer further questions on the matter.
