Hunter Biden (1 Viewer)

[FullMonte]

Lost in all the news coverage about what's going on in the US right now is this bit of information.

The Ukrainian government has completed an audit of thousands of case files related to Burisma. Ruslan Ryaboshapka (the prosecutor general), described by Zelenskiy as "100 percent my person" in the July phone call with president Trump said "I specifically asked prosecutors to check especially carefully those facts about Biden's alleged involvement. They answered that there was nothing of the kind."

Not that anyone SHOULD be surprised to find out that Hunter Biden was not implicated in something that was done by the CEO of Burisma in his role as a government employee, that happened two years before Biden joined the board.

The special counsel has released "devastating evidence regarding Hunter Biden and a Foreign Official."

In short, the Special Counsel made a court filing that included evidence that a Romanian businessman paid Hunter Biden $3 million to influence US government policy.

In long, the Special Counsel made a court filing that a Romanian businessman wanted Hunter Biden to help quash an investigation into the businessman. The evidence included information that Hunter Biden and his partners thought that would cause negative political ramifications for Joe Biden."

Of important note: "This evidence will not include evidence that the defendant performed lobbying activity in exchange for this compensation."

Well what do you know. How convenient that we find this out only after Biden isn't running anymore.

They still won't charge him with FARA violations eventhough it's obvious he committed them.

I thought yall said this wasn't happening?



TURLEY: "It's very frustrating for many of us who have been writing for years that we don't understand why there was not a charge under FARA for being an unregistered foreign agent... With Hunter Biden, they have consistently ignored overwhelming evidence that he was receiving millions to influence policy. So now, after all that time, Weiss files this with the court, saying, oh yeah, we know he was directing this stuff because he was getting money to influence U.S. policy from this Romanian."

The @MarcoPolo501c3 Report on the Biden Laptop documents numerous FARA violations by the Biden family and their associates that would put any ordinary American citizen in prison for decades.

The corporate media and the DOJ have ignored the overwhelming evidence of FARA violations because it leads directly to President Biden.

Still refusing to actually read, huh. You even quoted the post that shows there is no “there” there in this filing. Just a bunch of nothing, yet again.

Show exactly what policies Hunter Biden impacted or shut up about it. Turley has failed and you have failed.

I think the reason it’s not getting traction is because the statute of limitations has run. It’s just another crime that Trump got away with now. Maddening.

For Trump, the worst time for this story to go viral is between the middle of Sept and election day. That's when it will lose him the most votes.

Right, but the part where barr intervened, pretty much prevented further investigation, is the problem.

Edit: from the wa post article.

By late 2019, Liu’s office was poised to make sentencing recommendations for high-profile senior Trump advisers it had prosecuted, Michael Flynn and Roger Stone — cases that could tarnish Trump and his campaign. That December, the White House nominated Liu to be an assistant secretary of the Treasury Department.
Barr seized the moment to make a change. Breaking with the tradition of allowing White House nominees to remain in their current posts until confirmed for new ones, he ordered Liu in early January 2020 to step down by the end of the month, people with knowledge of the matter said. The White House later withdrew Liu’s nomination.

Further since you made this point, I had forgotten to point out why I placed that story in this thread. I wonder, for a person who's ruthlessly anti-corruption with great focus on Hunter Biden, why haven't Trump's profits while he was in office brought up?

https://www.politico.com/news/2020/01/20/trump-businesses-empire-tied-presidency-100496

Trump’s early decision to maintain his grip on his sprawling real estate empire — despite his pledge to put his business aside while in the White House — has created a vast web of potential conflicts of interest, accusations about his policies being driven by his business interests and even possible violations of the law, according to documents and interviews.

Is there a statute of limitations on hypocrisy?

You know you've lost the argument when you are ignoring the recent news about Hunter and posting about Trump in the Hunter Biden thread.

No, there is nothing there because Hunter Biden influenced nothing. Now, Trump’s kids? Well, they grifted just like their old man. I assume you were thrilled that Trump reaped the money from forcing people to stay and pay exorbitant rates at his dump golf course when they were flying to Europe.

There is no argument. We may as well post about anything we want here, because there is no story. You’re like a broken record.

Someone can report that flat earthers have finally proven that the earth is not round. Though the report is factual that flat earthers do believe that, I won't ever care because I'll know that the source are conspiracist not worth my time. Credibility matters. Logic, reason, and facts matter. Critical thoughts matter. Expertise matters. Give me any of these and I will instantly change my views. However, I have zero expectations that any of these will be presented. None. Why waste my time?

The recent news about Hunter would be the court filing that says, verbatim: "This evidence will not include evidence that the defendant performed lobbying activity in exchange for this compensation."

Exactly.

So, I’m reading that Hunter Biden is willing to make an Alford Plea. As I understand it, this is essentially saying “I’m not guilty, but the prosecutor has enough evidence to convict, so I will plead guilty to save everyone the hassle of going through a trial, and I will accept the sentence the judge gives me.”

But, apparently, the prosecutors are objecting to this.

Why would prosecutors object to a guilty plea that does not require them to give the defendant any kind on consolation? Why would they want to go thru a trial?

To hurt his father. This is all about revenge

"The president’s son eventually paid roughly $2 million in back taxes and penalties after learning of the investigation and getting sober, following a years-long struggle with drug addiction and alcoholism. In the weeks before the trial, the judge blocked Biden’s lawyers from telling jurors about the belated tax payment, or about the potential origins of his addiction – dealing a major blow to his defense strategy."

Hunter Biden pleaded guilty Thursday to all nine charges in his federal tax case, in a surprise move on the day that an agonizing weekslong trial was supposed to begin.

This seems odd. If prosecutors can speak to what the money was spent on, then it seems the defense should be able to speak to why it was spent. Also, if he paid all back taxes and penalties, then why not let the jury hear that? @superchuck500

Yeah, I agree. This is a baffling ruling.
