Federal criminal investigation Hunter Biden focuses on his business dealings (Update: DOJ appoints special counsel) (1 Viewer)

[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.

I’m curious what you guys think is the real reason Tucker is backing off the Biden story. I don’t believe it’s because he suddenly found Jesus and discovered compassion and empathy. Tucker has no soul. So what’s the real reason?

Trump also isn’t hammering it as much. I think the FBI or DOJ knows something and they have told the Trump team, which means FOX News also knows. It’s starting to feel like folks are trying not to look like complete fools.

Tucker Carlson’s Hunter Biden Crusade Takes an Unusual Turn

After claiming a UPS package of bombshell Hunter Biden documents went missing, the Fox News host seemed to back off Thursday. “Pounding on a man, jumping on, piling on when he’s already down is something that we don’t want to be involved in,” he said.

Perhaps the FBI told them that if the story keeps getting pushed, they will come out and do a press conference saying that they have investigated everything and there is nothing to it. Fox definitely got the word to stand down (and standby?). If I had to guess, that is what I think it is. Plus, it never got any traction, so it wasn't like they were giving anything up by letting it go.

It may very well also be that Rudy has some legal exposure here, and Fox and Tucker have backed off after being warned by the FBI. This presumes that the material in question was hacked and thus obtained illegally, which is my best guess as to how Rudy got the information.

Karl Rove on Fox Sunday just said exactly what my take on this has been. It was too confusing and scattershot. Introducing all this new information and shady characters and stories late muddled the message.

If Karl Rove says you’re not doing a good job slandering someone, you should listen.

 

[MT15]

So, he didn’t really object to the misinformation and dirty tricks as much as that they were incompetent about doing it? Sounds about right for Rove.

He did note that the information from the laptop hasn’t been confirmed yet. I really believe GOP insiders have been given the heads up something is fishy. I’m noticing more and more the disclaimers from them about the laptop.

I'm not really a fan of Rove's politics, but, his commentary on the state of the election at any given point of time is actually pretty good. He knows his stuff. And he's been on point about how the administration has been bungling their messaging for several weeks now. He's pretty much cringing anytime he has to talk about it, lol.

As bad as the Administration has been, to think they're still in spitting distance is good evidence that Biden hasn't done a good job convincing people that he's ready for this. I was watching him speak yesterday, and honestly, I felt like he was trying too hard. I get why he feels like he has to press, but it doesn't look good for his delivery.

Biden should still win though. But stranger things have happened, so .

Yeah, I don't think it was ever legitimate. Just a manufactured October surprise imo.

Yeah, when Rove talks I listen. He’s slimy as a slug in the rain, but he knows his stuff.

If Rove of Swift Boat fame is saying your lies aren't up to snuff, you know you have nothing. I remember Fox News being first to call the race for Obama's reelection and Karl Rove having a "turn the machines back on" panick moment. Hope to see that with the Trump Klan.

Pretty sure Hunter Biden was responsible for me not having power the last four days.

A special kind of stupid.

Trump supporters gather in front of AG Barr's home to demand he 'lock up' Biden

A group of President Trump's supporters gathered outside the Virginia home of Attorney General William Barr on Saturday to demand he "lock up" Joe Biden.

Barr is detestable but no moron. If Trump loses handily on Tuesday, he's going to sit on his hands for the rest of Trump's administration. Why expose yourself to potential abuse of process charges when there is absolutely no gain in it for you?

 

[Foreign National]

I guess these allegations aren’t so important anymore. Or OP is still putting that list of articles together.

 

[Saint by the Bay]

I don’t know about that, but can you imagine how much hookers and blow there will be at Hunter’s victory party tonight?

(NOTE: This is only a joke. I respect the effort Hunter has put into his recovery and wish him nothing but the best. Just having fun).

I'm guessing Daddy will take care it for Hunter.

I'm guessing Daddy will take care it for Hunter.

A pardon seems in order considering his predecessor doles em out for $$$$ and family/friends.

amirite?!?!?

 

[Sandman]

I'm guessing Daddy will take care it for Hunter.

This is a big yawn. Trump being petty. Nothing more.

As for Daddy taking care of his kids, you will be seeing the pardons coming for Ivanka, Jr., and Eric pretty soon.

 

[samiam5211]

I'm guessing Daddy will take care it for Hunter.

I predict that we will see Hunter prosecuted and convicted for tax evasion while his father is the sitting president.

If that happens, you guys will still use it to bash Joe Biden.
