It's about Ukraine money-laundering, biolabs (Metabiota), his firm Rosemont Seneca, the ties to China. Or maybe nobody filled you in? You think it's about drug use and a gun charge? Ned's a useful idiot. Fully ideologically subverted. Gone forever to live under the great green sky of alternate reality. 1
B-Man Posted December 3 Posted December 3 When Your Dog Makes a Mess... By Dan Zoernig Ever had a puppy? Did it ever destroy a pillow or piece of furniture and leave you with a huge mess? Sure. Probably. At first, you get angry for a minute. Maybe you stayed angry for an hour. Or a week. But then, after you calmed down for a bit, you mellowed out because you know that's just what puppies do. They can't help it. They don't hate you. They just cannot fight their nature. This past weekend, Joe Biden left us a big mess. This past weekend, he issued a very carefully-worded pardon for his convicted criminal baby boy. Even after he repeatedly stated that he would not. He lied. But he can't help it. It's his nature. It's just what he does. These people have no conscience. But as Biden happily leaves the White House and totters blissfully into full-blown senility, he doesn't care. Now, this came as no surprise to anyone. Not even KJP, who keeps a red binder marked "Break Glass in Case of Emergency" hidden behind her trash can for the inevitable announcement over which she will be thoroughly questioned. "Karine, did the president lie to the American people?" "No, Peter [Doocy]. As we've stated before and said many times, the president loves his son very much and simply wants what's best for him...Blah, Blah, Blah...and Blah." So Biden lied a bunch of times over the course of the past year, saying he would not pardon Hunter Biden. Now he's done it. And, of course, it will never get the coverage it deserves. Anyway...Biden pardoned Hunter. But it was a very unusual pardon. If you read it, there are two things that might jump out at you. The first is his claim that his boy was unjustly pursued by law enforcement. But...wasn't that your own DOJ, Joe? Why would they do that? Perhaps because the matter garnered enough attention from "right-wing media" that it would have been impossible to ignore, so they had to do it? Knowing full well that if dragged out long enough, you could pardon him before he had to spend a day in jail? Let's see...who else has been unjustly pursued by Joe Biden's DOJ? Donald Trump? A lot of January 6 people who are still sitting in jail awaiting their right to a quick and speedy trial? I don't think Joe is going to pardon them for similar reasons. I think his convictions are self-serving and situational. Second, the Biden Pardon covers Hunter from 10 years ago up until December 1, 2024, for anything and everything he did or may have done, or thought of, or may not have thought of during that time period. Gee, now, why would he do that? I'll leave it up to you to draw your own conclusions. I bet they will hit you pretty fast, though. But fear not. There is a silver lining. {snip} Silly people, read the room. You lost the election. Badly. The electoral vote, the popular vote, and the swing state vote. Get a clue. America doesn't believe you anymore. They're not eating your secret sauce. Your DEI, your lawfare, your lies to our faces, and especially your elitist double standards are now showcased spectacularly by the Biden pardon as it waves gloriously in the breeze like a gay pride flag in Kabul. Now, Progressives might be smart enough to realize this intellectually, but their hearts won't let them accept it. They will keep pressing their ideas and malign anyone who disagrees. They won't criticize the Biden pardon, and they won't forsake the party. Like untrained puppies, they'll continue to make a mess because they can't help it. They cannot fight the urge. It's just what they do. Hypocrisy and double standards forever memorialized in the Congressional Record and in the history books. Thanks, Grandpa Joe. Thank you for this gift — this marvelous mess you've left us with. You've just given us all a lot to think about over the next few election cycles. https://redstate.com/dan-zoernig/2024/12/03/when-your-dog-makes-a-mess-n2182698

sherpa Posted December 3 Posted December 3 I wonder who will write it, and how long it will take, for an expose on this Biden family business to be exposed in book form. 1 1
The Frankish Reich Posted December 3 Posted December 3 OK, my serious thoughts on the Hunter pardon: 1. I don't like it. We have a process, and I believe in letting it play out. At a minimum, it involves a pardon review by the White House (obviously an odd thing here since the pardon seeker is a family member), but also input from the investigating and prosecuting agencies. We've seen this in last-day pardons issued by Clinton (Mark Rich) and obviously by Trump. But escalating these outside-the-process pardons is a bad thing. 2. There was a case to be made for Joe Biden reconsidering his statement that he wouldn't pardon Hunter. Since those statements, his party lost the election. His successor has nominated an AG and FBI Director who have committed to prosecuting Trump's political adversaries. The Hunter Special Counsel already initiated two prosecutions after a thorough review. Hunter was found guilty and given a slap on the wrist for one, the gun charge. I have never seen that charge used in that way, so it was certainly unusual. If Biden had pardoned Hunter for that, well, it's over and done with, fine. He pleaded guilty to the tax charges, however. Those are commonplace, to my mind not "political" in any way, and that should have gone to normal sentencing. After sentencing he could ask Biden/Trump to commute any sentence. But this "pardon" was far too sweeping. See below. 3. The special counsel having completed its task, there's a good case for Biden pardoning Hunter from additional prosecution for unrelated charges. This is political, but there is a good argument for it. I expect Republicans would always hate it, but put the shoe on the other foot and they might think it's o.k.

Everyone outside of left leaning media knew it was coming. At least you have something to be excited about. Considering the recent repudiation of your political worldview , I’m happy for you. We all need some sunshine.
