Hunter Biden (3 Viewers)

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 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 pleads guilty to federal tax charges, in surprise move on brink of trial | CNN Politics

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

I don’t know - it sounds to me like there’s some law there and I would have to read the judge’s ruling to be able to comment on the rationale.

Good call. Don't have to worry about this adding to election narratives nonsense.

I saw part of the documentary last night about this. It’s damning for Trump, Rudy and many others. How many times did we tell SFL the Hunter story was all Russian disinformation = also Trump disinformation.

I just finish watching this doc and there was nothing said or done that surprised me and I truly believe that there are many Congressional Republicans that are not surprised either. If Lady Justice was truly blind, Giuliani, Jordan, Gaetz, Comer and more, would be facing miscellaneous charges for their ongoing efforts.

Absolutely. Complicit - all of them.

It’s unfortunate he went back on his word, but honestly, if Trump had no problems pardoning his lackeys, why should Biden be held to a higher standard?

I agree with you. But, if I were him I would be very concerned about the possibility of Trump having one of his lackey judges take over sentencing, and sentence Hunter to decades.

 

[MT15]

Not to mention I always felt that Biden was going along with the ridiculous prosecution of Hunter so that Trump’s claims of being politically prosecuted would have less credence. Well, we see how that worked out - MAGA didn’t care. So I’m glad he had pardoned him.

Trump nominating Kash Patel probably sealed this happening.

Trump wants to use the DoJ to go after every single perceived enemy.

It's on Biden himself though. He put a Republican in charge of the DoJ, and the only successful prosecution was his own son.

Well, there are thousands of Jan 6 foot soldiers who say otherwise, but yeah, the Garland DOJ failed to hold any of the planners to account.

Good for Joe and good for Hunter.

Good job, Joe... fork em. Do some more shirt to piss them off on your way out.

Just wait till y’all find out the constitution doesn’t say the next president can’t UNpardon him.
