I didn't make it past that line, so I apologize if you eventually said something that wasn't delusional and I missed it.

Listen to the chain and timing of events and tell me there's nothing to investigate. One would have to suffer from total TDS not see the merits of the case against the Bidens.
I am well aware the media outfit reporting is Fox News (at least it's not Q, which I would never use as a source anyway). But unfortunately no other media outfit is willing to even acknowledge any hint of impropriety, let alone advocate for an investigation.
I don't have much faith in Solomon. He's as partisan a hack as ever put pen to paper. I'll read more about the Bidens, though.Byblos wrote: ↑Tue Nov 05, 2019 12:11 pm https://www.yahoo.com/news/hunter-biden ... 24686.html

Then let a real investigation determine whether or not there was quid pro quo that benefited Biden's son. But if the democrats and the mainstream media are not even interested in opening the subject, then they ought to lay off Trump for doing the same (assuming it is even provable). Goose, gander, and all. That, now, would be fair, don't you agree?edwardmurphy wrote: ↑Wed Nov 06, 2019 9:44 amI don't have much faith in Solomon. He's as partisan a hack as ever put pen to paper.

As far as I can tell Hunter Biden has always done his best to trade on his daddy's name. Hunter has also made a lot of poor decisions. He got himself into the military then got canned for doing drugs, he dated his dead brother's widow, he took a board position in the Ukraine while his dad was the sitting VP, and so on and so forth. The guy is a moron, and he very likely has a drug problem.
That said, the timeline doesn't really support wrongdoing by Joe Biden, and he wouldn't have had to do a thing in order for his son to trade on the family name. The claim that Biden went rogue and demanded that what's his face be fired is simply false. The Obama Administration, the EU, the IMF, and a bunch of Ukrainian reformers were all pushing for the same thing. They all wanted the guy gone because they all thought he was crooked. There is no evidence that Joe Biden did anything wrong, or that his kid committed a criminal act. This is a political smear aimed at knocking out the Democrat that Trump sees as his most electable opponent.
It's also worth pointing out that Ivanka, Jared, Eric, and DT Junior are flying all over the place and trading on their daddy's name while he's the sitting President. Remember when the Chinese gave Ivanka a bunch of patents the day after Xi visited the Trump's at Mar a Lago? Swampy. As. [love]. Only in this instance the Donald hasn't divested from his companies, so when his kids use his position to enrich themselves they're also enriching him. So it's even swampier. In fact it's a textbook example of "high crime," which refers to crimes committed from on high (meaning crimes that are made possible by the perpetrator's position in government).
Personally I find it all pretty swampy and I'd be delighted to see all kinds of anti-swamp legislation put in place. Meantime, though, there can't be two sets of rules. Either we care about kids using their parents' positions of power to enrich themselves or we don't. If Hunter Biden's actions in Ukraine are disqualifying for his father then the Trump clan's actions all over the world are equally disqualifying for Donald Trump.
The fact that Hunter Biden was on the board at Burisma while his dad was VP isn't new information. This came up in 2015. You might recall that the GOP held both the House and the Senate in 2015. They could have thrown together an investigation, but for some reason they didn't feel the need.Byblos wrote: ↑Wed Nov 06, 2019 12:42 pmThen let a real investigation determine whether or not there was quid pro quo that benefited Biden's son.

Edward,
I'm sure your news feeds include people like David Packman, Rachael Maddow, Anderson Cooper, and the Young Turks (AKA The young liars who are financed by Saudi Arabia) and other self righteous leftist narrators.edwardmurphy wrote: ↑Wed Nov 06, 2019 9:24 am My news feed is well populated with tales from the fever swamps, and if it's too wacky for FOX I can trust Abe and Stu to tell me about it. I have a pretty good idea what those on the right think about most things.
Nope.
You want news so you watch pundits and whine? That's on you. Sorry, but how patient would you be if I was crying because Hannity and Limbaugh kept interjecting their opinions into the story?Blessed wrote: ↑Wed Nov 06, 2019 11:20 pmThese people make me sick. I just want to hear the news or watch the video. Yet they always have to put on this pompous elitist bend; cherry pick quotes and narrate as if people are nothing more than useful idiots who cannot think for themselves and need to be told what to think.
I always go straight to the source material if it's available and I almost never read opinion pieces.Blessed wrote: ↑Wed Nov 06, 2019 11:20 pmMost of the time I end up clicking out and watching whatever video they are trying to narrate. I don't need someone to tell me what to think about something. These leftist media outlets always do this. I can get more honest news from Alex Jones than these people. And yes I'm being serious.
Umm...okay?
This just insane ranting. I don't believe any of that, and neither does the typical liberal or any mainstream politician I've ever heard of. You're literally babbling hate.Blessed wrote: ↑Wed Nov 06, 2019 11:05 pmEdward - you can create a new Constitution where you can criminalize free speech, the right to bear arms, quarter for soldiers, taxes, police marriage and family, unlimited 3rd world immigration, and all the other Un-American hell that is coming soon anywhere.

When the FBI CIA NSA directors are grossly abusing power to get rid of Trump which is uncalled for in the first place - and they STILL cannot find anything.
The 'why' is very very simple. I'm just not sure you want to see it though or are even ready to acknowledge it but here it is Ed, from the mouth of a conservative and staunch Trump supporter, OF COURSE THERE WAS QUID PRO QUO. That much is obvious, let's not kid each other. But here's the rub Ed, THERE IS ALWAYS QUID PRO QUO IN POLITICS of one form or another. It's been happening since the dawn of time and with every president and administration from Washington on. You really think Nixon didn't quid pro quo all day long? Or Kennedy? Or the CLINTONS?

Four years later the GOP still holds the Senate. Senate committees can investigate stuff too, but for some reason they're not doing it.
Donald J. Trump is the President of the United States. If he felt that there was something that needed to be investigated he could have simply called the DoJ and requested an investigation, but for some reason didn't do that.
If there was reason to think that Hunter or Joe Biden had committed a crime the DoJ could have investigated independently. The FBI could have, too. If the rumors were coming from Ukraine our Legal Attache could have looked into it. But yet again, nothing.
Byblos, as Daniel Day Lewis said in Lincoln, the President is "clothed in immense power." If he was sincerely concerned about corruption in Ukraine, either by the Bidens or in general, all he had to do was pick up the phone and call the State Department, the Department of Justice, somebody on the House Foreign Relations Committee, somebody in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, the FBI, the Legal Attache at the US Embassy in Kiev, his Ambassador to Ukraine, and so on and so forth. He was not without resources. Legal resources. Resources that would not require him to be sneaky, or imperil an ally, or act like a Mafia boss.
So why on earth did he involve his personal attorney? Why did he bring in his Ambassador to the EU? Why all the subterfuge and backroom dealing and the quid pro quo? Why the cover up? Why the lies? Why is he telling his people to defy subpoenas? Why is he acting so guilty?
Why???
