Joe Biden regularly met with his son’s foreign clients, particularly those from China and Ukraine,” Schweizer writes.
The Burisma revelations have damaged the US reputation abroad. Sali Berisha, a former prime minster of Albania, tells The Australian it was a “crystal clear conflict of interest because Ukraine was a client state of the US government”. “The son should never have been involved in businesses with Ukraine and government as long as US government was dealing so intensively with Ukraine.”
Trump was relentlessly attacked, baselessly as it turned out, for being a “Russian asset” during his presidency, beholden to Moscow because of alleged videos of him with prostitutes, which ultimately were a fabricated commission of the Clinton 2016 presidential campaign known as the Steele dossier.
It would be ironic if it ended up being Joe Biden who was the one compromised, not by Russia, but Ukraine, to which the US has provided more than $US110bn in aid since February 2022.
“Both the alleged offence, as well as the strength of the evidence, are far more egregious in the case of Biden than for Trump’s phone call,” Abrahms says.
Oh, old boy, you are naughty regurgitating the Australian's cut and pastes from Fox. Biden didn't meet regularly with his son's business contacts and Shokin wasn't investigating Burisma - a simple fact check proves this false. There is indeed evidence of your Dear Leader's subservience to Russian foreign policy, including the US election interference that saw him come to power and the invasion of Ukraine which he called "genius". All evidence points to him being a very carefully cultivated Russian asset.
There is no evidence of Hunter Biden influence-peddling in any of the investigations you've mentioned. As your article states, there is no evidence of any crime committed by Joe Biden. The recent House Oversight report made this clear. Even a Mcarthyist Republican committee, with full powers to subpoena bank records, call witnesses and compell them to testify, has found nothing.
https://www.nytimes.com/2023/05/10/us/politics/hunter-biden-house-republicans-re...There is, however, conclusive evidence of your Dear Leader being a career criminal and corrupt to the bone. Many of your Dear Leader's former employees and cabinet have been saying this for years. Two of his senior employees have been jailed for carrying out his orders and his business has been ruled fraudulent. His former Attorney General Bill Barr, once loyal to the core, wants to see him behind bars. Many of these people will be testifying and adding their testimony in court to the truckload of prima facie evidence that already exists, including audio recordings, video footage and confessions by your Dear Leader himself. Barr says he's toast.
So I'm curious. If you're so into "intelligence and integrity" as you say, then why do you continue to defend a politician caught on tape encouraging state election officials to lie about the results of an election that they'd audited and counted twice?
Why do you continue to defend a politician who, when leaving office, stole thousands of top secret government records, stored them in cardboard boxes in a club that hosted weddings and public events, ignored all government demands to return or even secure them, evaded subpoenas, lied to investigators, lied to his own lawyers and tried to destroy security footage in an attempt to cover it all up?
Why do you continue to defend a politician who told protesters, including those he was informed were armed members of FBI-listed terrorist organisations, to march to the Capitol and go wild? Why do you continue to defend a politician who actively conspired with these organisations in an attempt to terrorize a sitting Congress, Senate and even his own VP, resulting in an inevitable deadly riot that killed five people?
Why do you defend a politician who conspired to have false electoral delegates sworn in to rig the vote? Who lied in documents submitted in court, lied to the media and lied in official public statements made as president, with the goal of overthrowing a democratically-elected president and undermining, for the first time in US history, the peaceful transfer of power?
If you're so into integrity, old boy, then why do you continue to support all
that? If you'll forgive me, there's no easy answer to this. The most logical conclusion is that you don't have any integrity at all, you're just having a laugh. All that hissing and pouting and preening about Sleepy Joe?
Theatrics. What else could it possibly be? If you can
still support the most corrupt American politician ever known, you can't possibly have integrity. Slippery, evasive, tendentious, mendacious - on the tallest stilts ever.
We must consider alternatives to this hypothesis. Could you, for example, have a different form of integrity? One that allows corruption and criminality to achieve noble objectives?
Does your version of integrity excuse Russian collusion, business/tax fraud, information theft, obstruction of justice, terrorist collusion, incitement to riot, insurrection, election interference and various other crimes in return for LOCKING HER UP, BUILDING THE WALL and SENDING THEM BACK?
I'm curious.
