Eric Holder says

Why wasn't she in the witness protection?

"“She was the wife of the former owner who died under suspicious circumstances." -- The only former Burisma co-owner who died was this guy and it happened in 2011, i.e. long before Bidens entered the picture:

I'm amused people still don't believe our government isn't simply a mafia.

Seriously, that's what it's about.

Our research group has been working hard to achieve our goal of building a permanent repository of the data on the Biden Laptop. As you’ll recall, we launched https://bidenlaptopemails.com/ in May 2022. On June 1 of this year, we launched https://bidenlaptopmedia.com/ The feedback & coverage has been overwhelmingly positive. For the first 96 hours after the launch, we were DDoS’d into oblivion; however, we haven’t had a complaint since & the site has been running like a well-oiled machine. Fox News, the New York Post, & many other outlets have written about the launch of the site & the insane pictures on it. For a full list, click here: https://marcopolousa.org/features

Haha. I am incapable of believing that. Maybe as a result, I have the same problem.

If people just need to FEEL better about truth than fiction, then there's no solution. I'd rather believe the, perhaps, fiction that people can be made to believe reality than they simply won't. I may be unfixable in this viewpoint. Anything else seems hopeless.

You have to know that there is a movie about Cheetos for this to make sense, but still.

Photos on Hunter Biden’s Laptop Place Him at Father’s Home on Day He Texted Chinese Business Partner

Photographs on Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop place him at Joe Biden’s home in Wilmington, Delaware, on the day he sent his Chinese business partner threatening text messages wherein he referenced his father several times, according to a report.

Biden had sent his Chinese business partner Henry Zhao, a Chinese energy conglomerate linked to Chinese intelligence, an aggressive text message on Juley 30, 2017, that said:

I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled. Tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand, and now means tonight. And, Z, if I get a call or text from anyone involved in this other than you, Zhang, or the chairman, I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not following my direction. All too often people mistake kindness for weakness — and all too often I am standing over top of them saying I warned you. From this moment until whenever he reaches me.

He sent a subsequent message that said:

I am sitting here waiting for the call with my father. I sure hope whatever it is you are doing is very very important.

The text messages were released Thursday by House Ways and Means Committee Republicans, as part of transcripts from IRS whistleblowers who had investigated Biden and alleged they were retaliated against by the Biden administration for looking into the president’s son.

https://patriots.win/p/16bPnvBXK0/this-is-why-they-are-talking-abo/c/

In congressional testimony publicly released on Thursday, two IRS whistleblowers who worked on the probe alleged to lawmakers that the president’s son had been given preferential treatment by the Justice Department. The whistleblowers made several explosive allegations, including that the IRS had recommended far more serious charges for the president’s son, that US Attorney in Delaware David Weiss was blocked from bringing charges in other states and that Garland denied a request from Weiss to be named as a special counsel.

That's a felony. And him expensing them is proof he committed a crime (prostitution).

AmericanKulak says

That's a felony. And him expensing them is proof he committed a crime (prostitution).

The problem is those career bureaucrats in charge of investigating and prosecuting are Democrat hacks like Andrew Weismann and Bruce Ohr types.

So that is why they are dragging their feet toward statute of limitations finish line or trying to self sabotage the investigation.

Look at how the Democrats self sabotage their cases against Democrat golden boys John Edwards and Andrew Gillum.

President Donald Trump didn’t hold back during a speech in New Hampshire on Tuesday. ...

Trump also read out the bombshell text messages that were allegedly sent by Hunter Biden to a Chinese Communist Party business leader.

As Trump noted, the threatening message implicates Joe Biden in Hunter’s shady foreign business deals.

Focusing on the scandal that broke last week, Trump called it “100 times bigger than Watergate.”

Labelling Biden “the most corrupt president we’ve ever had,” Trump further noted “Five days ago, the IRS whistleblowers revealed that Crooked Joe sat in the room while his son Hunter messaged a Chinese Communist Party official, a leader, a top person, and said: ‘I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled.‘”

“In other words, where the hell is the cash?” Trump added. ...

Trump continued by reading out the message:

“’If we get a call or text from anyone involved in this other than you, Zhang, or the Chairman -‘ That’s pretty high up! ‘- I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me -‘ His father. ‘- and every person he knows, you will regret not following my direction. I’m sitting here waiting for the call with my father.’

“What the hell is going on?” Trump asked the crowd.

“Within ten days, the Bidens got $5.1 million from China for doing absolutely nothing,” Trump accurately noted.

“Joe Biden is a compromised president.

“And that’s why nothing happens with China because China knows how compromised he is.

“They have full control over our president,” Trump asserted.

“He’s owned by China. Biden is owned by China. Think of it, we have a president — and that’s just one of them, that’s $5.1 million, but there’s more from other different countries.”

“You can’t drain the swamp if you’re part of the swamp, and Biden and other opponents, many of them are owned,” Trump further emphasized.

“They’re bought, controlled, and paid for 100%. Our country is controlled by other countries.

Breitbart ran a story this week, ignored by corporate media, headlined, “Hunter Biden’s Attorney Confirms WhatsApp Text Shaking Down Chinese Businessman Is Real.”

Well how about that. On Friday, Hunter’s attorney issued a statement attempting to explain away the WhatsApp bribery message as a coke-fueled mistake, and to put Joe Biden in the clear, even though Hunter’s extortive text message clearly claimed Joe was “sitting right next to me.” Actually, the attorney’s statement didn’t quite claim Hunter was non-compos-mentis when he typed the text, which itself was pretty coherent for something allegedly written by a person under the influence:

“The DOJ investigation covered a period which was a time of turmoil and addiction for my client. Any verifiable words or actions of my client in the midst of a horrible addiction are solely his own and have no connection to anyone in his family.”
It’s weak. The attorney is crafting a new type of insanity defense, craftily turning Hunter’s widely-publicized drug problems into an asset. But it is a stretch too far. For one thing, there is no “drugs made me do it” defense when your actions are coherent, intelligible, and consistent with furthering a criminal act. For another thing, the lawyer is not denying that Hunter didn’t mean every single word of that text message.

The problem is that, within ten days from Hunter sending that message, the Biden Family Business mysteriously got $5.1 million from a CCP-linked energy company. On which no taxes were paid. Starting the same day, Hunter’s company began receiving regular “consulting fees” that nearly totaled another $5 million.

It’s good money if you can get it.

The IRS whistleblower who has been cooperating with the House said that FBI investigators sought to use location data to confirm that Joe Biden was in the room, but their investigation was shut down or otherwise buried under the Potomac river.

There’s a lot more detail. The House Oversight Committee has now traced millions from the same energy company to various Biden family members, including Hunter, James, Hallie, and a fourth unidentified Biden.

Which is why this proposed defense is paper thin. Nobody is going to believe that the smoking gun of a WhatsApp message — a message that explicitly seeks a bribe from a foreign national and simultaneously implicates Joseph Robinette Biden, the old pony soldier himself — nobody will believe that was a random one-off event provoked by a night of orgiastic recreational drug use.

Don’t blame the attorney. He could have lied and denied the message was verifiably true. But he hewed to his ethical duties and admitted the message was real. So far, he’s just seems to be trying to make the best case he can out of a very, very bad case.

https://babylonbee.com/news/7-simple-ways-to-get-away-with-a-massive-foreign-bribery-scheme

As we all know firsthand, maintaining an international bribery operation is hard work. Keeping the money flowing in without getting busted by the authorities can be tricky.

Fortunately, The Babylon Bee has compiled the following list of helpful tips to get away with your foreign bribery scheme scott-free.

Use your kindergarten-level painting skills and sell art as a cover: Nobody will ever suspect anything.
Take an entire hard drive's worth of pictures of yourself committing disgusting acts: Might be embarrassing if someone finds it, but at least it distracts from the bribery.
Get one of your immediate family members elected to a powerful office: Like your father, for one completely random example.
If anyone accuses you of anything, just tell them you're a drug addict: They can't come after you if you're the real victim.
Always have a global pandemic, war, or tragedy on hand: Creating a diversion is the key to staying under the radar.
Have the capability to make any potential witnesses "disappear": Nobody can blow the whistle on you if they're... um, "disappeared."
Be a Democrat: Being a member of the right party means you'll never be held accountable.

It's that easy. Follow those suggestions, and you'll never get caught — but rest easy, even if everyone finds out what you've been doing, you'll never face any consequences whatsoever! Have fun, kiddo!

Happening Now: New emails reveal that Hunter Biden invested in a pandemic preparedness company while his dad was VP and after his investment they received millions in taxpayer funding.

According to public information records the company Metabiota received a $250,000 investment from Hunter Bidens company before requesting his help with Ukraine relations.

The company then received over $18 million in taxpayer money with some earmarked for Ukraine relations.

How was Hunter so smart that he invested in a pandemic preparedness company before Covid?

Finally, the Hunter Biden prosecution is showing some signs of life. Special prosecutor David Weiss, who’d been written off by most conservatives as a lost cause, send a letter to Congress yesterday responding to a request for information.

The letter didn’t get off to a great start. Weiss refused to provide Congress with the requested documents. But then, unlike the usual bureaucratic word salad, the short one-and-a-half page letter stated at least three firms facts:

1) Criminal investigations of Hunter Biden continue, notwithstanding the recent plea deal over his tax fraud.

2) Weiss clearly stated that he has full, independent authority to bring any charges that he determines appropriate, resolving a controversy over whether he’d been shackled.

3) Weiss promised he would brief Congress in more detail soon.

I’ve been doing this long enough that I’m not holding my breath or kicking any placed footballs. But it is a tiny glint of promise. Maybe the Biden family’s fat lady hasn’t sung yet after all.

If the establishment want to nudge Birdbrain Biden out cause they do not want him to run again in 2024, then expect the justice system to actually be fair in regards to investigating Hunter Biden.

And that means also the media will at least not try to ignore, distract or outright lie for Birdbrain Biden.

One:

In 2013, Hunter flew to China with Vice President Joe Biden aboard Air Force Two. During the excursion, Hunter introduced the vice president to his business partner Jonathan Li, the CEO of a company linked to Chinese intelligence.

Ten days after the visit to China, Hunter secured a ten percent interest in BHR Partners, a Chinese state-backed investment fund co-founded with Li. The fund’s capitalization was $1 billion.

The Bank of China, a state-owned bank, controls BHR Partners. BHR Partners’ website boasts 15 billion RMB (renmibi, the official Chinese currency) in various portfolio companies, translating to more than two billion U.S. dollars.

Hunter Biden held a ten percent interest in BHR with the entity Skaneateles LLC. He controlled Skaneateles, according to Chinese public records from Baidu, as the sole governor until its dissolution in September 2021, a Washington, DC, registration indicated. Documents obtained by Breitbart News, first revealed by the nonprofit Marco Polo, show the control of Skaneateles LLC is held by Kevin Morris, Hunter Biden’s top attorney, who also paid Hunter Biden’s IRS debts.

Two:

Photos from 2014 reveal Joe Biden met with Hunter’s Mexican business associates, billionaire Miguel Alemán Velasco and his son Miguel Aleman Magnani, in the vice president’s office.

“The then-vice president also flew Hunter and his partner Jeff Cooper on Air Force 2 to Mexico City in 2016 where Hunter arranged to meet Alemán’s son for meetings over a ‘flippin gigantic’ business deal,” the Daily Mail reported.

Three:

In 2016, Hunter and Joe Biden flew aboard Air Force Two to Mexico, where Hunter met with a business associate from Mexico City. On the trip, Jeff Cooper, who ran a large litigation firm, SimmonsCooper, invested $1 million in Hunter and James Biden’s now-defunct hedge fund. The New York Post reported:

SimmonsCooper also put up $1 million in investment capital for Hunter and his uncle Jim [James] Biden’s abortive attempt to run a hedge fund in 2009. When the venture ended, the Bidens returned the money.

Cooper joined the VP’s entourage on Air Force Two to Mexico in 2016, when he and Hunter were trying to negotiate an ill-fated petroleum deal with Aleman Magnani.

At 6 p.m. on Feb. 24, 2016, about an hour after “wheels up” from Joint Base Andrews on the five-hour flight to Mexico City, Hunter wrote a plaintive email to Aleman Magnani using Air Force Two’s secure, high-speed satellite communications channel. He blind-copied Cooper.

Four:

A photo reportedly taken in 2014 shows Joe Biden golfing with Hunter and Devon Archer, Hunter’s fellow board member at the Ukrainian gas company Burisma. Archer, who was imprisoned for fraud, is in talks to comply with the House Oversight Committee’s subpoena regarding his knowledge of the Biden family’s alleged $10 million Ukraine “bribe” and additional Biden family business transactions.

“The photograph includes a fourth man who has not been identified. However, he is not Burisma’s top executive Taras Burdeinyi or founder Mykola Zlochevsky. Photographs of both men can be seen here and here,” Reuters reported.

Five:

In 2015, Burisma was under suspicion of money laundering and public corruption. Prosecutor Victor Shokin was investigating the case before his termination due to pressure applied by then-Vice President Joe Biden, who threatened to withhold $1 billion in U.S. aid from Ukraine if the Ukrainian government did not fire Shokin.

Joe Biden later bragged about the firing during a 2018 appearance at the Council of Foreign Relations.

“I said, ‘I’m telling you, you’re not getting the billion dollars.’ I said, ‘You’re not getting the billion. I’m going to be leaving here in,’ I think it was about six hours,” Biden told the audience. “I looked at them and said, ‘I’m leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not getting the money.’ Well, son of a bitch. He got fired.”

Six:

An FBI informant claims to possess two pieces of evidence that show Joe Biden received $5 million after threatening to withhold aid to Ukraine until Shokin was fired, House Oversight Committee Republicans told reporters after reviewing the bureau’s informant file.

Seven:

In 2015, the day after Joe and Hunter Biden met with foreign business partners at Cafe Milano, one of the men emailed Hunter Biden his thanks for the “opportunity to meet your father.”

The New York Post reported:

The never-before-revealed meeting is mentioned in a message of appreciation that Vadym Pozharskyi, an adviser to the board of Burisma, allegedly sent Hunter Biden on April 17, 2015, about a year after Hunter joined the Burisma board at a reported salary of up to $50,000 a month.

“Dear Hunter, thank you for inviting me to DC and giving an opportunity to meet your father and spent [sic] some time together. It’s realty [sic] an honor and pleasure,” the email reads.

An earlier email from May 2014 also shows Pozharskyi, reportedly Burisma’s No. 3 executive, asking Hunter for “advice on how you could use your influence” on the company’s behalf.

Eight:

Hunter and Joe Biden allegedly “coerced” a Burisma executive into paying them $10 million in bribes, a source familiar with the FBI’s informant document confirmed to Breitbart News.

According to Grassley, the FBI informant document said the founder of Burisma, Mykola Zlochevsky, who allegedly paid Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden, kept 17 audio recordings of his conversations with them as an “insurance policy.”

Nine:

In 2015, Hunter and Joe Biden met with business associates from Ukraine, Russia, and Kazakhstan at a popular Washington, DC, restaurant. Joe Biden was then vice president.

The New York Post reported:

Online photos of the interior of Cafe Milano match the background of the shot that shows the Bidens smiling while flanked by Kazakhstani oligarch Kenes Rakishev and Karim Massimov, a former prime minister of Kazakhstan.

Ten:

In 2017, Joe Biden penned a college recommendation letter for a child of Hunter’s Chinese business partner, Jonathan Li, with whom Joe Biden met in China.

Eleven:

In 2017, Hunter Biden stated in an email that Joe Biden was one of his “new office mates” after he “went into business with the CEFC executive,” according to the Washington Post. Hunter also made a key for Joe Biden to use at the House of Sweden in Georgetown.

Hunter Biden appeared to cancel his lease with the House of Sweden in 2018 after the CEFC energy deal failed in 2017. The Biden family had previously negotiated a deal with CEFC whereby Joe Biden (Big Guy) would receive a ten percent equity stake in the joint venture, Hunter’s former business partner Tony Bobulinski.

Twelve:

In 2017, whistleblower Tony Bobulinski, one of Hunter Biden’s many business partners, twice met with Joe Biden to discuss a business deal in China.

“I directly dealt with the Biden family, including Joe Biden,” Bobulinski stated.

After Bobulinski dined with former Vice President Joe Biden, his brother Jim Biden, and Hunter to discuss their deal in China, Bobulinski messaged James, telling him to “thank Joe for his time.”

Thirteen:

Between 2009 and 2017, Hunter’s business partner, Eric Schwerin, met with Vice President Joe Biden at the White House 19 times, White House visitor logs obtained by the New York Post revealed. Schwerin was the president of the infamous but now-dissolved investment fund Rosemont Seneca Partners.

Fourteen:

In 2017, Hunter Biden demanded payment from CCP-linked Chinese businessman Raymond Zhao, while Joe Biden was “sitting next to” him, according to a screenshot of a WhatsApp message from an IRS whistleblower.

“I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled,” the screen capture shows. “Tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand, and now means tonight.”

The captured transcript of the call continues:

And, Z, if I get a call or text from anyone involved in this other than you, Zhang, or the chairman, I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not following my direction. I am sitting here waiting for the call with my father.

Fifteen:

Just days after demanding to be paid by a CEFC associate in a WhatsApp text with Joe Biden “sitting” next to him, Hunter Biden asked a second CEFC business associate, Gongwen “Kevin” Dong, for $10 million in another WhatsApp text, noting the Biden family is best at “doing exactly what the chairman wants.”

In a message dated August 3, 2017, Hunter Biden told Kevin he wanted to quit squabbling “over peanuts” and settle on a firm deal by putting “this to bed tonight … and get to work. I am tired of this Kevin. I can make $5M in salary at any law firm in America.”

“Very simple,” Hunter wrote. “10 M per annum budget to use to further the interest of the JV. This move to 5M is completely new to me and is not acceptable obviously.”

“If you think this is about money it’s not,” Hunter added. “The Bidens are the best I know at doing exactly what the chairman wants from this partnership … let’s not quibble over peanuts.”

Chris Clark, Hunter Biden’s attorney, admitted the 2017 WhatsApp text demanding money from a CCP-linked businessman while “sitting next to” his dad was indeed Hunter’s message.

“The DOJ investigation covered a period which was a time of turmoil and addiction for my client,” he wrote. “Any verifiable words or actions of my client in the midst of a horrible addiction are solely his own and have no connection to anyone in his family.”

Sixteen:

In 2018, two years after Joe and Hunter Biden flew to Mexico to meet with Cooper, Hunter texted Cooper about a deal he had in the works with a business partner named Slim, the New York Post reported. “Spoke to my dad about ‘Slim ask,’” Hunter said to Cooper.

“Oh that sounds SO F’ING GOOD,” Cooper responded.

Seventeen:

In 2018, Joe Biden called Hunter Biden and left a voicemail about a business deal with the Chinese energy company CEFC. The voicemail revealed the Biden family’s concern that sensitive information was included in a New York Times article about Hunter Biden’s involvement with CEFC’s chairman Ye Jianming.

“Hey pal, it’s Dad. It’s 8:15 on Wednesday night. If you get a chance just give me a call. Nothing urgent. I just wanted to talk to you,” Joe Biden said.

“I thought the article released online, it’s going to be printed tomorrow in the Times, was good. I think you’re clear. And anyway if you get a chance give me a call. I love you,” the message concluded.

Eighteen:

In 2019, Hunter Biden revealed to his daughter that Joe Biden collected “half [my] salary” for 30 years. Hunter reportedly paid thousands of dollars for Joe Biden’s house repairs from the money reportedly obtained from selling access to Joe Biden.

“I hope you all can do what I did and pay for everything for this entire family for 30 years,” he texted. “It’s really hard. But don’t worry, unlike Pop [Joe], I won’t make you give me half your salary.”

Nineteen:

In 2023, Former Obama White House stenographer Mike McCormick alleged that the FBI has ignored Joe Biden’s role in the family’s foreign influence-peddling “conspiracy” in Ukraine.

McCormick, who told the New York Post he has relevant information implicating Joe Biden in the family’s business affairs in Ukraine, submitted a tip to the FBI in February. McCormick said he never heard back from the FBI — the same law enforcement agency which allegedly “shut down” the investigation into Hunter’s abandoned “Laptop from Hell.”

According to McCormick, Biden’s former national security aide, Sullivan, told reporters on April 21, 2014, on Air Force Two as an anonymous “senior administration official” that the United States intended to help Ukraine’s natural gas industry.

Unknown to the public at the time, Hunter Biden was already a board member of Burisma, a Ukrainian natural gas company. Hunter’s position on the board was not disclosed by the company until May 12, 2014, nearly a month after Sullivan’s statement to reporters.’

Polling service Rasmussen ran a story yesterday headlined, “BidenGate: Most Voters Don’t Believe President’s Denials.”

Weird!

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey found that 58% of Likely U.S. Voters think Joe Biden is a big fat liar. They responded to the survey saying it is likely the Resident was involved in Hunter’s foreign business deals, including nearly half (44%) who believe it’s Very Likely he was involved. A third (33%) say it’s not likely Biden was involved in his son’s business deals, including 19% who think it is Not At All Likely. Presumably those are the hard-core democrats

Another 10% — who haven’t been paying attention and don’t know how to read the time from a round clock — said they are just not sure.

https://nationalfile.com/horse-fisting-ex-goper-nsa-snoop-working-for-hunter-bidens-legal-team/

Disgraced ex-GOP Congressman Denver Riggleman, who has bragged that he “fists” horses in the rear end and snooped through the private messages of American citizens while working for the NSA, has joined Hunter Biden’s legal team. Since losing the support of his own party at Virginia’s 5th District Convention in 2020 and being bounced from Congress, Riggleman appears to have developed a historically bad case of sour grapes and has dedicated his existence to attacking his former colleagues and voters, having also worked as an unelected “advisor” to Nancy Pelosi’s J6 Committee.

Horse-fisting?
