The pay-to-play paper trail

At the core of any corruption allegations involving the Biden family is the claim that money is flowing TO the Biden family (either Joe personally or other family members) in exchange for some tangible benefit gained directly or indirectly from Joe Biden using his clout, connections, or ability to influence policy.

Examples might include access to business markets/opportunities, advance warning about any Federal Investigations into the business dealings of foreign entities, favorable disposition concerning relevant domestic policies (including exemptions from sanctions lists), and leveraging American influence in foreign countries to serve private interests. Each of these hypotheticals currently has corresponding allegations of corrupt acts that may have been taken by the Biden family.

We now have evidence of Joe Biden’s brother taking a $200k check as a ‘loan’ from a distressed company that has since gone bankrupt, only to turn around and immediately write a check to Joe for that same amount as a ‘loan repayment.’

Bankruptcy proceedings of that same company explicitly claim that payment was in the belief that Biden’s name would help open business opportunities abroad.

The current Democrat talking point is that this was merely a ‘loan repayment.’ The only problem with that claim is the fact that Comer already has the bank records in question, and that doesn’t add up.

Comer explains:

 

Tax fraud implications

For a guy who spends so much of his time complaining that unnamed rich fatcats aren’t paying ‘their fair share’ of taxes, he sure does have a lot of relatives in his inner circle who have income that seems to lack corresponding tax payments. It’s almost as if he was getting paid on the down-low.

A critical section from that letter shows that Joe Biden has now been SHOWN to have financially benefited, PERSONALLY, from trading on the family name.

Whether it was a loan or not, James Biden’s March 1, 2018, check to Joe Biden aptly demonstrates how he personally benefited from his family’s shady influence peddling of his name and their access to him. Even if the transaction was part of a loan agreement, we are troubled that Joe Biden’s ability to recoup funds depended on his brother’s cashing in on the Biden brand.

This issue was raised in Congressional hearings with subject matter experts from the IRS… in this case, a commissioner.

Raskin was caught in a lie to protect Biden.

Democrats in the Oversight Committee are led by Rep Raskin, who is best remembered for his aggressive role in attempts to impeach Donald Trump.

His zeal in prosecuting impeachable offenses is awfully selective, it seems, as he is more than willing to shovel B.S. narratives to protect Joe Biden from questions that would indicate Joe Biden’s personal corruption.

For instance, Comer and others have called on him to Apologize to Americans for lying about Biden’s business schemes, including Burisma.

“Most recently, former U.S. Attorney Scott Brady’s testimony debunks Ranking Member Raskin’s lies about the FBI’s unclassified FD-1023 form that memorializes a confidential human source’s conversations with a Burisma executive who claimed to have bribed then-Vice President Joe Biden for $5 million dollars.”

A cover-up that magnifies the audacity of the crime:

This problem goes back at least as far as Watergate. The steps offenders take to hide wrongdoing are at least as relevant as the wrongdoing itself.

What happens when the same Law Enforcement that is robustly weaponized against your political enemies has quietly been doing that cover-up FOR you… for years?

At least 40 whistleblowers in the FBI alleging that actual evidence of criminality against the Biden family has been quietly swept under the rug.

Some of the investigators stepping up are new members of the whistleblower club.

Over 40 confidential FBI sources say there’s evidence of criminal activity committed by Joe, James and Hunter Biden with accusations of the Department of Justice shutting them down.

In a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland, U.S. Senator Chuck Grassley said that the sources had been managed by different FBI field offices and supplied the bureau with details of potential crimes by the Biden’s.

According to the letter seen by DailyMail.com, Grassley learned that an FBI task force within the Washington Field Office sought to, and managed to, successfully shut down reporting from those sources by falsely discrediting the information.

A former US attorney said the FBI hindered his ability to investigate first son Hunter Biden’s work for Ukrainian natural gas firm Burisma — and that special counsel David Weiss skipped a briefing on bribery allegations into the president and his son, according to congressional testimony reviewed by The Post.

Scott Brady, the top federal prosecutor in Pittsburgh from 2017 to 2021, recounted the “challenging working relationship” with the FBI and Weiss’ office in Delaware during an Oct. 23 closed-door interview with the House Judiciary Committee.

“I think there was reluctance on the part of the FBI to really do any tasking related to our assignment,” Brady told Judiciary members and staff, clarifying that his role involved “looking into allegations of Ukrainian corruption broadly” as well as “anything that intersected with Hunter Biden and his role in Burisma.”

[…]

Brady also said he was “surprised” to have first learned about the contents of Hunter’s abandoned laptop through The Post’s bombshell October 2020 reports, which revealed the first son’s influence-peddling schemes abroad.

“I would have thought that would be something, especially as has been publicly reported, there’s information relating to Hunter Biden’s activities on the board of Burisma in Ukraine, that might have been helpful in our assessment of the information that we were receiving about him,” he said. —NYPost

There’s even an OBAMA connection?

Not just Obama. Obama/Biden/Burisma and CCP… dating back to the Obama years.

Only Menendez has anything even CLOSE to information this damning of political corruption.

If we had such a thing as functional media, instead of professional presstitutes, they would be all over this story.
