This week, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer released a third report on the ongoing investigations into the Biden corruption scandal.
The latest bank records indicate the Biden family has received more than $20 million, including from corrupt Kazakh figures.
Some of this money provided Hunter Biden with extravagant toys. On April 22, 2014, Kazakh oligarch Kenes Rakishev wired $142,300 to the Rosemont Seneca Bohai bank account. That account then shows the exact same amount being wired to a New Jersey car dealership for a Fisker sports car for Hunter. Finding the Fisker unsuitable, Hunter traded it in for a Porsche.
Notably, these payments often coincided with dinners and meetings with Joe Biden.
Russian oligarch Yelena Baturina, the widow of Moscow ex-Mayor Yury Luzhkov, wired $3.5 million to Rosemont Seneca Thornton Feb. 14, 2014. She later attended a dinner with Joe and Hunter Biden at Washington, DC, hotspot Café Milano.
For weeks, Joe Biden’s prior claims have been collapsing as his allies in the media and Congress struggle for an alternative spin on these new disclosures.
The president’s denials of any knowledge of his son’s foreign dealings finally have been exposed as a lie. Even the Washington Post has acknowledged Biden lied when he insisted that Hunter never made any money in China. It was always a boldfaced falsehood (and a confusing claim from a man who insisted that he had no knowledge of his son’s foreign dealings).
But the testimony of associate Devon Archer and new bank records forced the paper and others to recognize the falsehood.
There is also the confirmation that Biden’s long denials that he attended key dinners with Hunter’s business associates were false. Most notably, the media are grudgingly admitting that Hunter was openly selling influence peddling and access to his father as part of what Archer called “selling the brand.”
The final line of defense is now that Hunter Biden was selling access to Joe Biden but it was an “illusion.” The reason, they claim, is there is no evidence of direct payments to Joe and Jill Biden.
The House Oversight Committee is 100% effective at stopping transmission of Biden influence.

Why bother with any of this? Every one knows that politicians are never held accountable. NEVER.
It is the appearance of action. Not real action, not measurable action, just the appearance which is enough to satisfy the uninvolved, unaware voter.
It may be useful in the next presidential election, a mere 15 months away.
DEMOCRAT POLITICANS are never held accountable (or whatever the commies happen to call themselves in a particular country).
Non-commies get framed.

There. Fixed it for ya

one supposes with senility comes a lot of lying or merely forgetting the details and expressing wishful thinking instead. followed by forgetting all of that leaving more room than ever for. well, lets just say contradiction.
bottom line is coincidentally ‘mercuh and Canaduh both have the utter worst top guy on the totem pole they ever had. certainly so above the 49th. south, well they might have one tied for 1st place.
So it’s ok to launder money through your kids? Asking for a friend.
and the Cuck rinos will do nothing, as many of them are compromised the same way. Hell, they had a chance to take hitlery down when T Goudy dug up V Foster’s body, and they did less than nothing, as usual.
Hardly unexpected. The DemonRats have a long history of corruption in office. Old Joe bought the presidency for JFK. Jimmy Carter was running cover for brother Billy and his inflence-peddling for Iraq. Bill and Hildabitch were running murder incorporated out of Little Rock and the White House.
Name me one, just one, honest DemonRat elected official. Is that asking too much?
cghCOLON
Gabard and Kennedy, that’s 2(TWO), in case you can’t count that far!
Well, you are still as stupid as Putin’s Pimp. Gabbard isn’t in the DemonRat party any more. As for Kennedy, he’s still a Kennedy. That’s a family built on the proceeds of organized crime and gangsterism.
Now crawl back into your hole.
It’s refreshing to see a bit of civility brought to these discussions. Congratulations.
Name calling is part of the GOP strategy – can you imagine calling a special prosecutor a “thug?”
Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
Beyond that, the optics of this should have been far more than enough to prompt resignations in an attempt to purge suspicion from the office. The proximity should have been seen as damaging beyond repair. Or in a sensible country would be, where perception of honour in the office is important.
Oh cme on now; Joe said he didn’t involve himself in his family’s businesses.
Oh, no. Of course not. My mistake. 😀
The elimination of honor, actual and imagined, as well as conceptually, was a necessary first step in the revolution.
Probably. I’d suggest it was more about destroying trust in the system, rather than making honour for any particular office into a joke.
Makes Lyin’ Brian’s take from Karlheinz look pretty pathetic, eh?
”That’s been totally discredited …”

”Hunter’s done nothing wrong …”
THAT! is our LIAR in Chief. At the 2020 debate with PDJT. Once again … Trump told THE TRUTH … while Biden and the media LIED.
Trump won – do you believe that?
The Constitution allows Congress to impeach a president for high crimes and misdemeanours,…so what’s the holdup?
The holdup it seems is that some squishy spined Republicans don’t think there’s enough evidence. Nope. Or as Rep. Republican Don Bacon from Nebraska puts it…by gosh it’s just “too early for a formal impeachment inquiry”. HUH?????? No of course not…Donnie wants to see more I guess. Maybe a video, who the hell knows.
You see folks, Democrats are only one part of the problem.
“The holdup it seems is that some squishy spined Republicans don’t think there’s enough evidence”
Indeed … and there could be different reasons for that squishiness.
Some of it is likely simple cowardice at work; but I’m betting that most of it is sphincter-puckering because they’re worried that supporting impeachment might result in squealing and fingerpointing that could lead to examinations of their own “business” transactions.
It would take video of Joe accepting an envelope from Xi before any Democrat would vote to convict.
Nah, they wouldn’t convict. They would say that it’s just an envelope. Maybe it’s a birthday card.
I was a VOLUNTEER (read: no pay of any sort) for my local city government in CA. For 25 years. Each year, I had to file a Form 700 Statement of Economic Interests filed with the Fair Political Practice Act.
https://www.fppc.ca.gov/Form700.html
If I accepted so much as an invite to see a GIANTS baseball game … in the nice seats that cost more than $50.00 … I had to report it on Form 700 … or get fined $10,000.00 and do jail time … as a “corrupt” politician. Huh? I guess Federal Politicians only need to report “gifts” > $50M ?
If the Republicans launch impeachment proceedings, the Democrats and their media will rally around President Biden.
Perhaps it’s better for a continuing drip, drip, drip of corruption reports.
Perhaps it has somethig to do with the Democrat control of the Senate.
Who got the bucks is not the big story. The issues are:
What was the quid pro quo? Why was the money paid?
Is Joe Biden compromised and subject to blackmail?
The FBI and the CIA covered up the laptop story and likely changed the outcome of the last election – can they do it again?
Trump was impeached for asking valid questions about the Biden’s criminal activities in the Ukraine – will Biden get impeached?
When conditions are right there is no reason to think impeachment is not in the cards. The dems have it coming and they know it.
This is just a small amount of what he must have amassed over 50 years. Also, he is not very smart; Hillary was much more dept at hiding the flows. Maybe the Bidens, and Dementocrats in general, have just become so blase about it that they do not even bother hiding it any more.
All these politicians need to be investigated. Start with the ancient broomstick riding senator and congresswoman from California.
How are these humble public servants able to afford $16 million estates?
I understand many of them were born with money. Some may have earned it before entering politics.
But anyone becoming a millionaire many times over while still in office is probably crooked.
There is no rational explanation for the wealth of the Biden family, other than corruption. Did I say treason?
Will crooked, corrupt Brandon serve out his term in office or will Kamalatoe become President? The mind boggles at how fast and far the USA has fallen. As for Canada, is the Libtard / NDP fantasy rule coming to and end before it’s too late to repair the damage?
