Biden Impeachment Inquiry Is Well-Earned
Posted By: Garnet, 7/31/2023 12:36:31 AM
When House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) suggested that mounting questions concerning the fishy financial history of President Biden and his family may lead to an impeachment inquiry, some Republicans got the vapors. Rep. Ken Buck (R-Colo.), for example, said it would send the “wrong message.” Reps. David Joyce (R-Ohio) and Tom Cole (R-Okla.) voiced similarly craven qualms. An inquiry may well uncover evidence supporting claims made in an FBI document, recently released by Sen. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa), that Biden accepted bribes while Vice President. If so, it is the duty of House Republicans to impeach him.

Joe Biden doesn’t do a lot of interviews, and there’s a good reason why, given his continued problem with incoherence and mistakes. His staff has done all they can to either cut him off from the press or set him up with softball interviews.
Biden just interviewed with British podcaster Jay Shetty at the White House, which I think falls under the umbrella of a softball interview. Now, it’s ironic that he was appearing with Shetty to talk about how the Biden administration intends to help deal with the mental health crisis. The Democrats could start by having Joe Biden retire from the job and take care of himself.
As promised, Hunter Biden’s former business partner at Rosemont Seneca, Devon Archer, showed up to offer closed-door testimony to the House Oversight Committee and he had plenty to say. According to James Comer, Archer identified President Joe Biden as “the brand” back when he was Vice President, and Hunter Biden sold “the brand” around the world. He told the committee about at least twenty business meetings he and Hunter held with foreign entities where The Big Guy was either on the phone or there in person. He also testified about various “favors” that these clients wanted and received from Joe Biden in exchange for paying off Hunter and company.

RYE, N.H. − Meeting and greeting voters at a barbecue in a rural hamlet, Ron DeSantis deployed his rebooted campaign Sunday by making familiar arguments about why he should be president - and throwing in a few jokes, as when he thanked New Hampshire-based police officers for providing security.
"If we recruit you to Florida, you get a $500 signing bonus right off the top," DeSantis said as voters encouragingly chuckled. "We're always looking for good people."
As with a recent trip to Iowa, DeSantis used his New Hampshire trip to display an altered campaign style that includes a little more personality,

When House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) suggested that mounting questions concerning the fishy financial history of President Biden and his family may lead to an impeachment inquiry, some Republicans got the vapors. Rep. Ken Buck (R-Colo.), for example, said it would send the “wrong message.” Reps. David Joyce (R-Ohio) and Tom Cole (R-Okla.) voiced similarly craven qualms. An inquiry may well uncover evidence supporting claims made in an FBI document, recently released by Sen. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa), that Biden accepted bribes while Vice President. If so, it is the duty of House Republicans to impeach him.
The language is undeniably different, and yet White House officials said four different times Wednesday that “nothing has changed” concerning President Biden’s longstanding denial that he was ever involved in the foreign business dealings of his son Hunter.
House Republicans, meanwhile, contend that the deviation in wording now employed at the White House reflects a strategy to distance the president from Hunter Biden ahead of potentially damaging new testimony.
Biden told Fox News on the campaign trail in September 2020, “I have never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings,” a categorical denial he later repeated the next month in a radio interview
First of all, I am not a lawyer, a legal analyst, a legal scholar, nor as smart about these things as Ed, who is on vacation.
But I have spent a bit of time around politics, and the collapse of the Hunter plea deal promises to shake up the political landscape, although we have no idea how much yet. The bomb is still in the air, so we don’t know whether its explosion will be nuclear, fuel-air, bunker-buster, or anything up to and including a big dud.But at the very least, when it hits the ground even a dud has some substantial kinetic energy and it will leave a crater.
The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and the United States are re-uniting. Jill Biden was sent to France to highlight the United States rejoining the organization. And, she will honor Americans who died in northern France during World War II. UNESCO is the cultural wing of the U.N. It facilitates international exchange through education, arts, culture, sciences, and the arts.We can only hope she doesn’t call anyone a breakfast crepe in a speech.
She arrived in Paris on Monday, her first trip to France, and after greeting U.S. Embassy staff, she joined Brigitte Macron for a UNESCO flag-raising ceremony.
President Biden is merely pretending to do his job. But will the charade collapse before he can finagle another election victory?
In czarist Russia, a Russian governor named Potemkin built a fake village to deceive Catherine the Great about the condition of the peasants she ruled.
In today’s Washington, the media are partnering with Team Biden to concoct a Potemkin village to deceive Americans about Biden’s faltering fitness for office.
Last month at the Air Force Academy graduation in Colorado, Biden stumbled leaving the podium.
It took multiple Secret Service agents to eventually get Joe back on his feet.
Well that is a shift...

Lots of news about Joe Biden’s obvious financial relationship with his influence peddling, coke-snorting, hooker-using disgusting and worthless human being he calls a son has been emerging of late.None of it tells us anything we didn’t already know, except in terms of filling out the details of how the influence-peddling scheme worked and how the money was hidden and distributed within a family that is more corrupt than Spiro Agnew ever hoped to be.
Why ‘Bidenomics’ Isn’t Selling
10 replies
President Biden has of late attempted to convince Americans to ignore the financial realities of their day-to-day lives by insisting that his stewardship of the economy has been a success. Inevitably, the corporate media have been all too willing to repeat this rubbish despite mountains of data that clearly debunk the President’s claims. Fortunately, the voters are not as dumb as Biden and the Fourth Estate evidently believe. According to virtually every poll, significant majorities disapprove of the way he has handled the economy. Moreover, because the voters experience the ugly facts in real time every day, it is unlikely that a public relations campaign will change their opinion.

It is not quite the case that the media totally ignored the IRS whistleblower testimony to the House Oversight Committee.
But they sure did a good job of burying the news down deep in the equivalent of dropping an important fact in the 38th paragraph of an article. If you go to the websites of the major news outlets you have to search for the story, since it doesn’t appear on the front pages of any but a couple, and on those it is treated as a secondary story buried well under the headlines.Tom Bevan of RealClearPolitics was gobsmacked enough by the seeming indifference
Nancy Pelosi’s future has been the subject of whispers in her hometown since the Democrats lost the House and she stepped down from leadership.
What everyone has wanted to know — but no one was eager to say out loud, for fear of offending the speaker emerita or merely out of respect and admiration for her — is whether she intends to keep her seat. And, if not, would she favor a chosen candidate — or throw it open to what could be a wide open primary in one of the most Democratic cities in the U.S.

A math education professor at the University of Illinois argued in a newly published book that algebraic and geometry skills perpetuate “unearned privilege” among whites. (snip) “On many levels, mathematics itself operates as Whiteness. Who gets credit for doing and developing mathematics, who is capable in mathematics, and who is seen as part of the mathematical community is generally viewed as White,” Gutierrez argued.
Gutierrez also worries that algebra and geometry perpetuate privilege, fretting that “curricula emphasizing terms like Pythagorean theorem and pi perpetuate a perception that mathematics was largely developed by Greeks and other Europeans."
Last week, Barack Obama’s private chef, Tafari Campbell, fell off his paddle board and sank below the surface of Edgartown Great Pond. His drowned body was recovered on Monday morning in the water off the former president’s Martha’s Vineyard estate. Currently, there’s no foul play suspected, and it’s worth noting that Campbell was not wearing a lifejacket. However, certain peculiarities have presented themselves, causing some people to raise questions. For example, the reason for the 911 call that prompted the search was left blank in official logs. The person Campbell was with at the time of the accident remains unidentified, and the police have refused to disclose the person’s name.
Two on-duty Oakdale plainclothes police officers were told to “put their guns in the car” before they would be allowed to have lunch at Texas Roadhouse in Woodbury on Friday, according to an officer in the department who spoke to Alpha News about the incident involving his colleagues.
He said the officers were first told by the hostess they were “not allowed to have weapons in the restaurant.” (snip) ”A spokesperson with Texas Roadhouse told Alpha News the 17-year-old hostess had just completed “active aggressor training” and that she “didn’t see a badge.” “She was freaked out seeing a gun,” Travis Doster said.
FIRST ON FOX: Former President Trump was indicted Tuesday on charges stemming from Special Counsel Jack Smith's investigation into the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021, Fox News Digital has learned.
This is the second federal indictment the former president faces out of Smith’s investigation. Trump, who leads the 2024 GOP presidential primary field, has already pleaded not guilty to 37 counts related to his alleged improper retention of classified records from his presidency.
Those charges include willful retention of national defense information, conspiracy to obstruct justice and false statements. Trump was charged with an additional three counts as part of a superseding indictment out of that probe last week.
Last Year: Karine Jean-Pierre refused to say why Biden didn’t sanction Russian billionaire Elena Baturina — nor if Biden met with her at a Georgetown restaurant in 2015 while he was Vice President.
Today Hunter Biden’s best friend and business associate, Devon Archer, testified that Joe Biden met with Russia’s Yelena Baturina who later invested into $40 million into Hunter Biden’s real estate ventures. And she also paid Hunter Biden $3.5 million in consulting fees.
Yelena Baturina, the billionaire widow of a corrupt Moscow mayor, was left off of Biden’s Sanctions list.
During an interview with the Fox News Channel aired on Monday’s broadcast of “Special Report,” 2024 Republican presidential candidate Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said that there are two standards of justice, and “Donald Trump was President for four years. This problem got worse under him. He did not succeed in draining the swamp.” DeSantis also predicted that Trump would have a “very difficult time getting the type of personnel to join the administration that you would need” to take down the administrative state.
A week after the tragic drowning of Obama’s personal chef, Tafari Campbell, DailyMail.com has uncovered new information about the incident.
Tafari Campbell, 45, met his tragic end while paddle boarding on Great Edgartown Pond, Martha’s Vineyard, on July 23. He was reportedly not alone, but local police have yet to disclose the other person’s identity.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that dispatch calls between Martha’s Vineyard emergency services confirm the presence of a second paddle boarder with Campbell.
According to a statement from the Massachusetts State Police reported by MassLive, the unidentified paddleboarder tried to swim to Campbell but tragically, “did not reach him in time.”
Democrats are concerned that black voters won’t turn out for President Joe Biden in 2024 like they did during the 2020 election, according to The Washington Post.
Democrats are increasingly worried after the 2022 midterms saw a 10% voting drop among the crucial electorate, despite the party’s victories in the Senate, according to the Post. Party activists are now making it a priority to bolster turnout for black voters, particularly in key battleground states Biden narrowly secured in 2020 — Georgia, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Michigan.
“The Democratic Party has been failing epically at reaching this demographic
Former President Donald Trump’s legal woes are affecting his campaign in more ways than one. On the one hand, they have boosted his popularity among members of the conservative base, who see the wave of politically motivated indictments as a brazen attempt to use the legal system to influence the outcome of the upcoming presidential election. However, new reports show that these issues are making a significant dent in his campaign’s war chest.
So far, the political action committee supporting Trump’s bid for the White House has spent a considerable sum of money on legal fees:
Gas prices have quietly been on the rise over the summer as President Joe Biden and his administration have touted the merits of his “Bidenomics” agenda. U.S. oil prices jumped by nearly 4% last week, and the per-gallon price at the pump hit a national average of $3.75 Monday, the highest recorded average since November 2022, according to AAA and the U.S. Energy Information Administration. Continued increases may pose a new headache for Biden, who is promoting the “Bidenomics” agenda ahead of his 2024 run for reelection. Global oil prices are up 16% since late June, and they have increased

Hunter Biden's former best friend Devon Archer finally sat for a transcribed interview with the House Oversight Committee on Monday in Washington and, although we don't yet have the full transcript of his testimony, at least one Democrat member of the committee was quick to try framing the situation in a positive light for the Biden family. Among the lawmakers present at Monday's interview was Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY). He rushed to the cameras staked out during the interview and quickly tried to put some pro-Biden spin on the situation
A new poll from Gallup finds that confidence in the U.S. Military is at its lowest point since the late 1990s.
Do you think this might be related to the inability of the military to meet recruiting goals in recent years?
This is horrible news for the good men and women of our armed services but more importantly, it’s a national security issue. Low morale is not good for defense.
The Hill reports: (Snip) The survey found 60 percent of Americans have confidence in the military, matching the lowest level since 1997. Confidence has not been lower since 1988, when it sunk to 58 percent.
