Actually that’s not the latest. The latest is video showing the bastard coaching one of his whores to keep saying that she’s “okay,” and keeps asking her to affirm that he never hit her – on camera. Then he paid her off. Looking at other language in the video – “I didn’t hurt you.” “I didn’t bruise you.” “I’m offering you water. Who are you calling?” “I treat you better than other clients do.” – It’s pretty clear that he physically abused this woman and is trying to coach her into saying “he never hit me, your honour, and if he did, I was asking for it.“

All this is just more stuff from the laptops that Joe Biden’s drug-addled, boozehound, prostitute-using ne’er-do-well  son, Hunter Biden, in his permanently trashed state, abandoned after he dropped them off for repair. It adds to the emails, photos and recently even a voicemail from dear old Dad himself.

But before we get to the rest of the news of America’s premier political crime family – the Clinton’s having fallen far behind (Ethics Experts Alarmed By 93% Decrease In Clinton Foundation Donations Since $250 Million Peak In 2009) – take a look at this list.

Once those folk are out of politics I’m sure Wall Street will want to snap them up as traders. But maybe they just had a good year. It’s year-on-year consistency that truly tells how good you are.

Here’s another example of the corruption: Former head of the Federal Reserve and now Treasury Secretary, Janet Yellen was paid $7.2 million in total for speeches given to financial firms. Due to the lockdowns they were all done via Zoom. Nice work if you can get it.

But you need to understand that this is not exactly secret. Yellen disclosed these as part of her applying for the job of Treasury Sec. It’s transparent, and was met with a shrug of the shoulders by GOP and Democrat alike, because they’re the same (see above), or hope to be one day.

And it’s systemic corruption rather than just a few people: that’s what makes it so bad. Yellen is already paying off for the Biden family:

Suspicious Activity Reports (SARS) are generated by banks whenever there are suspicious transactions from shady people — usually foreign criminals, terrorists, or gangsters. In case you’re wondering, “Maybe people routinely get hit with a lot of SARs,” Rep James Comer, (R-Ky) who has a background in banking, says it’s very unusual for an American citizen to get hit with “more than one” SAR in his lifetime. And he says that if someone gets multiple SARs, the bank usually tells the client, “Find another place to do business.” They don’t need the problems associated with providing banking services for criminal enterprises.

Hunter Biden and Joe’s brother James have racked up one hundred and fifty SARs in the last few years, most of them tied back to transactions with Ukrainian, Russian and Chinese businesses. This is known because the Treasury department had to hand them over to the Senate Finance Committee and the House Oversight Committee when they were controlled by the GOP. But now the rules have been changed; to get the SARS requires majority consent in Congress – meaning the Democrat Party has to approve.

Who put this rule in place? Janet Yellen of course.

Back to the laptop contents. More important than the sex and drug videos were emails showing that Hunter and his family were and are up to their eyeballs in crooked deals with Ukranians and Chinese businesses, who paid Hunter a fortune for nothing but his family name and access to his dad. In Miranda Devine’s book is this exchange:

As [Joe Biden’s brother] Jim talked, [Hunter’s business partner Tony] Bobulinski marveled at the political risk to Joe’s career if his family’s flagrant influence peddling during his vice presidency came to light.

“How are you guys getting away with this?” he finally asked. “Aren’t you concerned that you’re going to put your brother’s [2020] presidential campaign at risk? You know, the Chinese, the stuff that you guys have been doing already in 2015 and 2016, around the world?”

Jim chuckled and looked knowingly at Bobulinski.

“Plausible deniability,” he said

No wonder that Democrat allies reacted as they did. In one of the most extreme example of media bias in US history, the rest of the US MSM simply refused to cover the story. In this they were aided by the New Media of Facebook and Twitter, which did everything they could to bury what was undoubtedly a story that could have killed Joe Biden’s election chances.

Moreover they went to the extent of pushing back on the news, even bringing back the old Russian Collusion bullshit, claiming that the whole thing was Russian disinformation, a claim made courtesy of 51 former Intelligence officials.

As none other than former Rolling Stone editor and reporter (and solid lefty) Matt Taibbi said about the belated confirmation that the laptop and its data was real (read that entire TownHall article):

In a just world this would be career-altering news for the parade of media figures who spent months loudly insisting the opposite, cheered the unprecedented decisions by Facebook and Twitter to restrict access to the story, and repeated the Langley-driven fiction that it was a Russian smear. The fact that none of them are bothering to comment on any of this shows that the line between the intelligence community and commercial media has blurred to the point of meaninglessness. They know everyone knows they screwed this up and are long past pretending to care.

Of course, as former Democrat Senate leader Harry Reid said years later of his 2012 smear job about Mitt Romney’s taxes: “I don’t regret that at all. Romney didn’t win did he?”

Liberal reporter Michael Tracey had much the same reaction at the time of the original story:

As he points out in that series of Tweets, reporters used to condemn censorship whereas they now demand it from the likes of Facebook and Twitter.

They also went after the man that Hunter had abandoned the laptops with and who had given them to the FBI, foolishly thinking they’d investigate the contents.

As big an outfit as NBC went after the relatively minor Right-wing media site RedState when they released an equally explosive report based on other investigations (separate from the laptop) of the Biden clan’s connections with China:

The week before Election Day, RedState published a series of articles about Joe Biden and Hunter Biden, based on a 64-page report from researchers who combed public records to reveal how compromised the Biden family is to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). You can read Part 1 here. The four-part series lays out deeply disturbing connections between Hunter Biden, Joe Biden, John Kerry, and the CCP.
…
The pro-democracy news outlet Apple Daily, based in Hong Kong, used an earlier 40-page version of the report and was the first to report on its findings. In response, NBC News launched a coordinated attack on one of the publishers of the report, Christopher Balding. This attack had all the appearances of being coordinated with the Biden campaign and it had the effect of benefiting the CCP.

The report goes into intimate detail about the deep connections between the Biden family and the CCP. In fact, Hunter Biden’s company BHR is listed as a subsidiary of the Bank of China, owned by the CCP.

There’s a massive amount of detail at that link but, like the NYT/WaPo approach to the NY Post, NBC simply went after the one of the publishers and ignored everything else.

But that was before the election. The truth can start to be allowed to leak out, courtesy of the announcement that Hunter is under criminal investigation by the Delaware AG for tax problems and other financial fraud. Understand that this is more than just tax, which would be handled by the IRS if it were. No, there’s a lot of heat here for Hunter, and by extension his father. Hence this cartoon’s joke about the phone call from dear old Dad to Hunter talking about an NYT report on some aspects of the China links and how Hunter is now “in the clear”.

Joe Biden has said repeatedly that he never spoke to his son about his business dealings. In particular, he denied that his son ever made money related to China.

We’ve shown in the past how both of those statements were lies.

Joe met with several business partners of Hunter’s while he was vice president. That included when he met with business associates from Russia, Ukraine, and Kazakhstan at a dinner at the Cafe Milano in Georgetown, in 2015.

The voicemail is thus merely the latest evidence showing that President Biden has long known all about these business deals between China and his son. But even the Delaware AG-IRS investigation stinks:

Last summer [2020], federal officials in Delaware investigating Hunter Biden faced a dilemma. The probe had reached a point where prosecutors could have sought search warrants and issued a flurry of grand jury subpoenas. Some officials involved in the case wanted to do just that. Others urged caution. They advised Delaware’s U.S. Attorney, David Weiss, to avoid taking any actions that could alert the public to the existence of the case in the middle of a presidential election.

“To his credit, he listened,” said a person involved in the discussions, reported here for the first time. Weiss decided to wait, averting the possibility that the investigation would become a months-long campaign issue.

To his credit? Are you fucking kidding me? AYFKM? To make this even juicier Weiss was appointed by Trump and although such people are usually fired by incoming administrations, Biden has left this Solid Citizen in place.

Trump sure has great instincts when it comes to personnel, doesn’t he? FFS!

Miranda Devine (author of The Laptop From Hell) sees the Politico piece as a guide to where this will go:

Hmmm. Politicized inaction is now a virtue? Tigani case went nowhere and not because Delaware is squeaky clean. Politico the go-to outlet for regime Hunter Biden narrative: eg John Brennan’s letter trashing laptop as “Russian disinfo”. Prelude to whitewash

She thinks that the they’ll come to some arrangement with Hunter that sees him pay IRS fines – while also sealing the investigation so that nobody can see all the other stuff they would have found. The sort of stuff that RedState and Apple Daily found and that investigative reporter Peter Schweitzer’s new book, Red-Handed, has dug up more of:

The Biden family scored $31 million from five deals in China, all with individuals with direct ties to the Chinese spy apparatus…Multiple financiers with direct ties to Chinese intelligence partnered with Hunter Biden during and after his father’s time as Vice President — including the former head of the Ministry of State Security and the head of foreign intelligence recruitment — and some of those relationships remain intact… Schweizer explains that Beijing saw a financial relationship with the Bidens as an opening for “elite capture,” which allowed Hunter Biden to secure meetings and score major deals with people in the highest levels of Chinese financial institutions and the Chinese Communist Party — and in return they would be able to leverage the Bidens’ power for their interests.

The same type of influencing crap that the CCP has tried to pull here in New Zealand with both the National Party (Jian Yang) and the Labour Party (Raymond Huo).

To that end I find I found this final paragraph from that TownHall article sad in its optimism:

There’s only so much you can sweep under the rug, and even if you cover it, the stench of the crap fills the room. It’s unavoidable. Joe Biden and his son did dirty deals. The emails shine a light on this web of deceit and corruption. Recently, we learned that Modest Joe is rolling in it with $5.2 million in undisclosed income. So many questions will rope in Hunter Biden and eventually lead once again to the emails on his laptop and the deals that were reportedly hashed out. 

You can’t keep this game up forever, guys. 

Oh I think they can – because so many of them are up to their armpits in this shit.
