    BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

    HAHAAAHAHA

    Some Republicans just cannot help themselves. Why rehash what was clearly a loss for the Republicans and something that didn’t move the needle at all?? Just like the Democrats cannot help but eat each other, the Republicans cannot help but embarrass themselves.

    I am half expecting another Benghazi(!!) story to break soon!

    Maybe something will break about Dukakis soon as well. I heard he may have kicked his husky once out of anger after the Red Sox blew a 4-2 lead to the Yankees in 1968.

    excerpt

    There is nothing here that is clearly criminal. Freeh was clearly trying to tap into the Bidens for business, not that type of rainmaker dealing is common in Washington. What is most interesting about the emails (beyond the $100,000) is that Freeh understood that Hunter Biden was the window to deal with the Bidens on deals. Keep in mind that, during these years, Hunter Biden says that he was a wreck dealing with drug and alcohol abuse. Biden admits that he was still a crack addict running into his father’s last presidential campaign and the photos from China show him passed out and doing drugs as well as sexual trysts with various women, including possible prostitutes. In this book, Hunter admitted that he was still a crack addict and alcoholic: “[d]rinking a quart of vodka a day by yourself in a room is absolutely, completely debilitating” as well as “smoking crack around the clock.”

    Both Hunter and his uncle are repeatedly referenced in a variety of deals as conduits to Joe Biden. Tony Bobulinski stated that he personally met with Joe Biden to discuss the business dealings of his son and brother. Bobulinski has been supported by these emails and is repeatedly praised by Hunter Biden in the emails and identified as the person in control of transactions for “the family.” He has directly contradicted Joe Biden’s denial of any knowledge or involvement in his son’s dubious dealings. He has never been called a liar by the Biden and Hunter admits that the laptop “might” be his — or they might be entirely fake Russian propaganda. The mainstream media has no interest in determining which is true — or to recognize the fact that third parties confirmed that these emails are real.

    There are more serious disclosures raised in these emails that not only reveal influence peddling in details but contradict the repeated denials of President Joe Biden. While the Bidens are not claiming that these emails are fake, the media has a blockbuster story in either case: either this is the greatest frame up of all time or it is the greatest cover up. The problem is that, if it is a cover up, the media played a major role in it.

    While the media assigned teams of investigators and reporters to cover every possible shady deal of the Trump children, most media outlets are continuing to bury the laptop story. If they do not report on it, it did not happen. That has fueled concerns that we have a type of state media by default where reporters follow a narrative not by legal coercion but personal conviction. In the age of echo journalism and advocacy reporting, shaping the news has become acceptable, even commendable. At this point, the mounting evidence of self-dealing and influence peddling by the Bidens cannot be reported without being an indictment of not just this conduct but that of many journalists and columnists.​

    TURLEY!!!! Yes. My opinion can now be completed.

    A: If you want to be known as a serious “scholar” maybe check for typos

    B: So the point of the article is what?? That the great one Jonathan Turley is upset that the mainstream media is not covering Hunter Biden’s laptops?? Even though he admits that it’s unverified? So he wants the MSM to cover an unverified story but he’s a SERIOUS “scholar” and TOTALLY unbiased??

    New posted excerpt still has no explicit allegation of corruption. Lots of ironic condemnation of the media for pushing a narrative though. Maybe the most ironic thing of all is that we had a transcript of Trump engaging in corruption and Turley called it a paucity of evidence. But now he's making allegations built entirely in innuendo and moralizing.

    Ya
    Turley is a man of honor and is definitely not a partisan hack...o_O
    So can you specifically show me what policies Uncle Joe or Obama implemented that could be deemed as a favor for these entitites that made even Democrats scratch their heads and was against US interests like Trump lighting sanctions on ZTE against the wishes of US intellegence agencies and his own party after his daughter got trademarks approved from the CCP?

    If this is the best Turley can come up with, then it really isn't worth writing about..... he had to try and weave together various different things together, without any real evidence..... he then decides to throw in some buzz words like "state media" and wrap up the article.

    Still there is no evidence of corruption..... we all know that Hunter Biden was (and maybe still is) an absolute mess.

    It's Funny you can right the same thing and use Cohen for Hunter and Trump for Joe.

    Hunter and Cohen where getting money because people thought they had access but nothing happened because of that access we know of.

    Turley and Dershowitz are partisan whores posing as constitutional scholars.

    probably deserves its own Hunter Biden thread

    "Deal of the art: White House grapples with ethics of Hunter Biden’s pricey paintings":

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/poli...e0528c-da72-11eb-9bbb-37c30dcf9363_story.html

    excerpt:

    White House officials have helped craft an agreement under which purchases of Hunter Biden’s artwork — which could be listed at prices as high as $500,000 — will be kept confidential from even the artist himself, in an attempt to avoid ethical issues that could arise as a presidential family member tries to sell a product with a highly subjective value.

    Under an arrangement negotiated in recent months, a New York gallery owner is planning to set prices for the art and will withhold all records, including potential bidders and final buyers. The owner, Georges Bergès, has also agreed to reject any offer that he deems suspicious or that comes in over the asking price, according to people familiar with the agreement.
    lol
