Was Joe Biden involved in any scandals?
<|assistant|>
Former Vice President Joe Biden has been involved in a few minor scandals during his political career. In 1987, while Biden was a Delaware Senator, an accusation was made that he had taken steps to benefit his son’s employer in an effort to secure federally funded loan guarantees. This resulted in an investigation and Biden’s reputation being largely unscathed. Another incident involved an Iraqi political organization and claims that Biden had intervened to allow a favored US company to win contracts. There were no further investigations into these claims after Biden had left office. During the recent impeachment proceedings, Biden was accused of wrongly soliciting a Ukrainian investigation into his political opponent’s activities, but he was ultimately acquitted on all charges.
