Hunter Biden to plead guilty to federal charges

Old news. From an article dated back in May:

The foreign payments raise questions about Hunter Biden’s business activities while his father was vice president, but the committee does not suggest any illegality about the payments from foreign sources. The bank records by themselves also do not indicate the purpose of the payments that were made.

The memo marks Comer’s most direct attempt to substantiate his allegations that Biden family members have enriched themselves off the family name. Comer has suggested that Biden may have been improperly influenced by the financial dealings, particularly by his family’s foreign business partners.

But the latest report does not show any payments made directly to Joe Biden, either as vice president or after leaving office.
​

Has any new evidence of Joe's involvement been uncovered since then? The answer as far as I know, is no. Not only that, Archer's testimony confirmed Joe had nothing to do with Hunter's business dealings.

Now is Hunter clean? At best, he operated in the margins selling foreign investors that through Hunter, they'd have access to Joe. But again, to date, no evidence that Joe ever did anything wrong. Or Joe himself took any money, or knew that any of his family members might be profiting off the family name.

 

There is a ton of evidence implicating Joe.

 

Only you and few other far lefties think this. The rest of us know he lied. It’s ok, you can’t help it, too far left to think rationally.

 

I'm willing to concede that Joe Biden lied. One question for you, did he lie about receiving payments through Hunter to influence policy? Joe Biden's veracity isn't the issue, it's whether he received bribes from Ukrainian and/or Chinese sources and so far there is absolutely no evidence to that effect.

 

Sure. If innuendo, hearsay, and conjecture were admissible in court. But none of that is. And hard evidence implicating Joe? Still waiting. "Crickets chirping"

 

The better question would be what evidence is there that doesn’t implicate Joe?

 

And from the USA Today:

The committee, led by Chairman James Comer, said in the report that it plans to continue to investigate Biden to find evidence of corruption, even as it acknowledged that it had no evidence that he financially benefited from the myriad foreign business dealings of his son Hunter. [Emphasis added]
​

I ask again. Where's the hard evidence that implicates Joe? (More and more crickets chime in)

 

Thanks for admitting Biden lied. Took long enough but at least you saw the light. I don’t know why Biden lied. Would like to know the answer.

 

It’s in the same place where all the evidence is of 2020 election fraud.

 

It's there just like Comer was there in the room for the closed door testimony with Archer..., wait, no he was on the phone listening in...wait, no he was talking with his constituents...it would be comical if not for the fact they are wasting taxpayer dollars on nonsense and doing nothing for the country.

 

Don't worry, the pillow guy is on it.

The Biden's take bribes from every country and they love their Russian money. And free sports cars.

 

There is nothing new there. It's all tied to Hunter's business we already know about. Nothing related to Joe Biden. It's hilarious folks are shocked people use their name as if Hunter invented nepotism.

Republicans:

 

I mean, you're right. We don't have Hunter saying he paid his dad money. Oh, wait...

Hunter's text about Biden making him fork over half his salary resurfaces amid new Democrat talking point.

"I hope you all can do what I did and pay for everything for this entire family Fro (sic) 30 years. It's really hard. But don't worry unlike Pop I won't make you give me half your salary," Hunter wrote. According to The New York Post, who reported on the texts last year, "Pop" is Biden.

 

Just a reminder... this deal with Clarence Thomas is NOT his son grifting off his name....it is him directly taking benefits from billionaires with cases pending while they claim "we never discussed cases". Where is the right wing outrage that has 45 pages on Hunter? I'll tell you, it is stuck in hypocrisy-ville.

ProPublica report offers broadest look yet at Clarence Thomas' luxury travel bankrolled by wealthy friends reveals private jet and helicopter rides and VIP sporting event tickets | CNN Politics
The latest investigation unearths a pattern of gifts to Thomas from Crow and three other billionaires who have been major contributors to Republican causes: David Sokol, the former heir apparent of Berkshire Hathaway; the late H. Wayne Huizenga, who made his vast fortune in his ownership of Blockbuster, Waste Management Inc. and other major companies; and Paul “Tony” Novelly, who formerly owned an oil company.


In this 2012 photo, H. Wayne Huizenga stands on the field before an NFL football game between the Miami Dolphins and New York Jets in Miami.
ProPublica interviewed more than 100 people, including staff that would have worked some of the trips that Thomas took. It also reviewed records obtained from the US Marshals Service, tax court filings, and personal photographs.

Thomas did not respond to ProPublica’s detailed list of questions for its report, nor did Novelly. Huizenga died in 2018, and his son, who leads the family business, also did not respond to ProPublica’s inquiries.


In this 2010 photo, David Sokol speaks to shareholders on the exhibition floor prior to the Berkshire Hathaway Inc. annual meeting in Omaha, Nebraska.
Sokol acknowledged in a statement to ProPublica that he hosted the Thomases. “We have never once discussed any pending court matter,” Sokol said. “Our conversations have always revolved around helping young people, sports, and family matters.”

 

Cool story bro. Maybe go put it in the Clarence Thomas thread. Try to focus on Hunter/Joe here.

 

This thread is about Hunter. There is no focus on Joe here. Certainly nothing you posted.

 

Where’s the evidence though? Other than that if you or I did this, we’d be going to federal prison? But I suppose when you are “access”, things like prison are avoidable.

 

Good try. If I were you I'd want to avoid talking about Hunter/Joe as well. You already admitted Joe lied. We have Hunter saying he paid pops half his salary. But you and the other far lefties are like Sgt Schultz.
