    She hasn't anything of note yet. You aren't missing a thing.

    Part of the problem might be that I'm just not following this story all that closely, so some of the context she's assuming her followers would have is missing for me. But the way she tweets out stuff is still difficult to follow. Like, I find I have to read the following multiple times just to parse it.


    #HunterBiden My reporting a week before Presidential election, “The FBI interview was voluntary + the source said, the discussion included his business dealings with the Bidens on Chinese firm CEFC as well as Bobulinski's "exposure to other Biden family business deals" globally.”

    That's pretty much exactly what her reporting amounts to.

    So even if Hunter is guilty of not reporting a diamond gift and his held accountable, who cares? It isn't government corruption, and unlike the current president, Hunter isn't a part of his administration.

    So far, though, there just isn't any presented evidence that Hunter's even done anything wrong. But if he has... again (outside of the IRS), who cares? It simply isn't important.

    its pretty clear Hunter had "questionable" dealings in china, and we already are aware of the ukraine connection.

    if there's something actionable, presumably there's a trail that a tax audit would uncover.

    on va voir.

    you're very impatient, and quick to judge.

    for those of you uncertain, in the other thread there's plenty of fire. we'll see whose house is burned down.

    here? there's a lot of smoke; we shall see where it leads.

    I'll just judge by the evidence presented. I'll be happy to change if there is ever any evidence presented.

    But like I said, it isn't very significant even everything implied actually was true.

    It doesn't implicate government corruption or Biden corruption so I'm not really going to be up in arms if Hunter didn't claim a bazillion carat diamond that was given to him as a gift.

    The other thread has neither smoke nor fire. This thread has two day old ash.

    Are you talking about the state of New York looking at Trumps tax returns? Yeah there’s definitely a lot of smoke and fire there...

    One of the things I notice about these right wing conspiracy theories is they never provide intent.

    For example, with Trump and Ukraine we can explicitly hold your hand and show you step by step how there was mutual benefit for both parties. I can show policy changes. Same with China, Russia and Turkey. All countries Trump has done illegal quid qo pro. And in all of those cases we can show you policy changes he did that benefited those countries. Many of those policy changes his own party disagreed with such as Erdogan and the Kurds.

    So can you show me the quid pro quo. What policy changes have Biden and Obama performed that were against US interests even from their own party because they were bribed from a foerign country.

    it's not about Trump, about whom i could give a damn.

    you know who it's about, and we shall see what comes of it.

    Exactly. You don't care about the crimes or cases of corruption. You only care if it might possibly incriminate someone you disagree with.

    Thank you for admitting that. I hope that if anyone is in doubt they read your post and erase themselves of any benefit they were willing to extend to your posts.

    "Justice Department’s interest in Hunter Biden covered more than taxes"



    The federal investigation into President-elect Joe Biden’s son Hunter has been more extensive than a statement from Hunter Biden indicates, according to a person with firsthand knowledge of the investigation.

    On Wednesday, Hunter Biden said he had been contacted about a tax investigation out of the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Delaware.

    In addition to Delaware, the securities fraud unit in the Southern District of New York also scrutinized Hunter Biden’s finances, according to the person with direct knowledge of the investigation. The person said that, as of early last year, investigators in Delaware and Washington were also probing potential money laundering and Hunter Biden’s foreign ties. The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to discuss the matter publicly.


    In addition to the probe into Hunter Biden, federal authorities in the Western District of Pennsylvania are conducting a criminal investigation of a hospital business in which Joe Biden’s brother James was involved. Federal officials have asked questions about James Biden's role in the business, according to a second person with direct knowledge of that investigation, who said it remains ongoing.
