Federal criminal investigation Hunter Biden focuses on his business dealings (Update: DOJ appoints special counsel) (4 Viewers)

[SaintForLife]

Hunter Biden received a $3.5 million wire transfer from Elena Baturina, the richest woman in Russia and the widow of Yury Luzhkov, the former mayor of Moscow, Senate Republicans revealed in their report on the younger Biden’s work in Ukraine.

Baturina is referenced in the 87-page report, which was released Wednesday, addressing her payment to Biden’s investment firm in early 2014.

“Baturina became Russia’s only female billionaire when her plastics company, Inteko, received a series of Moscow municipal contracts while her husband was mayor,” it said in providing background on the businesswoman.

The report described her involvement with Biden as “a financial relationship,” but declined to delve deeper into why the wire transfer was made.

The probe also found that Baturina sent 11 wires transfers between May and December 2015 to a bank account belonging to BAK USA, a tech startup that filed for bankruptcy in March 2019.

Nine of those 11 wire transfers were first sent to Rosemont Seneca Partners, the investment firm founded by Biden and Chris Heinz, stepson of former Secretary of State John Kerry, before being transferred to BAK USA.

We all know their is massive corruption on both sides of the aisle. Here is an alleged allegation against Hunter Biden who was allegedly enriching himself because his Dad was Vice President.

Nope that's not what I was saying. The media has gotten so many supposed bombshells wrong during Russiagate and they all used anonymous sources. You would think after they got burned a few times they would tighten up their verification process, but they still run story after story of a supposed bombshells based on anonymous sources that fizzles out after closer examination.

You don’t even see the irony.

SFL, I told you in my post why I doubt the repair shop story. The document shown is an easy fake, why do you assume it’s real, coming from the NY Post, and Rudy Giuliani? Can’t get much less credible than that.

You can choose to ignore more than 50 former national security officials who say it looks and seems like Russian disinformation, you can choose to believe the somewhat shaky sources. You just don’t get to act like it’s self-evident that you are correct.

Okay so it's just speculation on your part that the documents are forged. I didn't see any evidence that the documents are fake. We can agree to disagree. I wonder why the press wasn't as skeptical of the unverified Steele dossier. Since Steele was working for Clinton how is he much different than Rudy's role?

That letter from the 50 intelligence officials also includes the known liars in Brennan and Clapper. Their records on Russiagate are horrible. Why would anyone believe anything they are saying? Also that letter was pure speculation and they admitted they had to evidence for their claim.

This is Leslie Stahl on an off-camera statement by Trump back in 2016. S4L he is making a fool out of you, and you are letting him do it:

Did you post that in the wrong thread? What does that have to do with Hunter Biden?

It is in the correct thread. You are complaining about media bias against Trump. I am just showing you that he complains about the media to get people like you to disregard the media. You are getting played.

Oh geez. I said the media was biased before Trump. Your reading comprehension isn't too good considering how condescending you are. I don't buy Trump's fake news shtick.

You called the media an arm of the Democratic Party. Yeah, you are chomping down on Trump’s “media bias” bait big time.

How is the supposed peddling of access that different if someone works for them or if they are family?

Conflict of interest.

Any opinion on my much lengthier reply?

So anyone who has ever criticized the media as liberally biased is only because of Trump? I've said that way before Trump although they are much more biased now.

Do you remember how the national media didn't censor or ignore the Steele dossier eventhough it was unverified? Can you point to any other instance when the national media ignored and censored a political story that hurt a Republican?

Did a Russian agent hack Hunter Biden's computer to get the photos of him?

I'd think it's more likely that someone hacked his iCloud account, copied information from it, added some "incriminating" information, and moved forward from there.

Did a Russian agent also drop off a fake computer at the Delaware computer shop

Probably, or one of Giuliani's people did. Those two ideas are significantly more believable than the story that Hunter Biden, who lives in Los Angeles, dropped his computer full of incriminating evidence, that wasn't password protected, at a hole in the wall computer shop in Delaware (instead of an actual Apple store somewhere), and then ignored multiple communications from the shop owner.

as well as forge a FBI subpoena?

I don't think anyone disputes that the suboena is legit.

I honestly don't see how Hunter leaving his laptop at the computer store & then forgetting to pick it up is a sign of a Russian disinformation campaign.

But you admit that the shop owner said he couldn't identify the person who dropped off the computer, so saying that Hunter Biden left the laptop isn't something that we can be sure happened.

The computer shop owner did state that he couldn't say for sure it was Hunter Biden that dropped off the laptops because of his vision problem.

He said that during the interview where he also said that the individual who dropped it off introduced himself as Hunter Biden, right? The same interview where he said that he called the FBI to tell them what he found on the drives and offered them copies before saying that the FBI found out what he had and called him to ask if they could have copies?

The FBI is investigating whether it's Russian disinformation according to.....anonymous sources. That seems like an easy thing for the FBI to confirm publicly without revealing anything about the investigation.

The FBI has a policy of not confirming or denying investigations. If they deny this investigation, and then refuse to comment on another anonymous report of some other investigation, that would be seen as a confirmation.

No. I am just talking about how S4L has bought into Trump’s “the media is against me schtick.” He does it so people like you will disregard them when they point out his questionable activities. It is clear that has happened in your case. I hoped you would reflect a bit on this and try to be objective having it pointed out to you. Instead, you are just doubling down. Do what you want, but don’t expect me or others to take you serious when you defend Trump from the “arm of the Democratic Party.”

We are getting ourselves down the same Rabbit Hole as the DNC and Podesta emails.

Even if it's all one hundred percent authentic, none of it is illegal and none of it implicates Joe Biden in any wrongdoing. All it shows is someone trading on his name. It's a tale as old as time, song as old as rhyme. The President of the United States would be a gas station attendant in Jersey right now if his Dad wasn't Fred Trump. Are any of us really shocked that the drug addict son of an influential person would be out getting crack money by saying "hey, my last name is Biden, give me the money"?

I find this entire topic laughable.

I have two broken laptops in my house right now that I didn't take to Billy's Puter Repair shack, I just got a new one. I am not a rich man, and I am certain that H. Biden has significantly more resources than I have and I'm quite positive that he wouldn't drop his, child porn filled, laptop off at Billy's Puter Repair shack and then leave it there. You would have to be a complete moron to do something like that and an even bigger one to believe that story.

Next thing you know, those Q idiots will claim H. Biden is the new ring leader of a baby eating cult whose main course is Filet Jon Benet.

Oh, if you think the child porn insinuation isn't a thumbs-up under the table to the QAmorons you have another think coming. No way the FBI has had a laptop full of child porn for a year and did nothing with it.

This is why I think the subpoena is bogus. It isn’t for that hardware, or it’s forged. I doubt that shop ever had any hardware. It makes zero sense.

Man, this thread is like watching a D-list movie while being high. You should probably turn it off and cut your losses but after sitting through this scene:
