AG Barr Concealed Hunter Biden Probes From Public During Election
2020-12-11
[ZH] Attorney General William Barr knew about several investigations into Hunter Biden since at least this spring - and "worked to avoid their public disclosure during the heated election campaign," according to the Wall Street Journal.

According to 'a person familiar with the matter,' Barr "staved off pressure from Republicans in Congress for information into the investigations," while President Trump and his allies pressured Barr into pursuing Joe and Hunter Biden.

This week, Hunter Biden revealed the existence of one of the investigations after federal investigators served him with a subpoena seeking detailed financial information in connection with a criminal tax investigation by the Delaware US attorney's office.

The next day, CNN and Politico confirmed that the probe was wider than that, and covered potential money laundering and bribery in probes that date back to 2018, according to 'people familiar with the matter.'

According to the report, none of the investigations implicate Joe Biden.

#5  I had hopes for Barr. That's what I get for putting my hopes in an Elton John clone.

#2  Just consider - dispassionately - what has transpired. The Middle-aged adult son of an aging presidential candidate traveled overseas with the latter while he was vice-president to meetings with the leadership of America's most dangerous hostile foreign power in their capital.

There, the Vice President's son signed business deals, paying him millions, with a flimsy front organization used by that nation's intelligence services to buy off corrupt politicians and gain control over nation's around the world.

18 months later, the VP's son's foreign business partner is convicted in New York of money laundering and of violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and sentenced to years in prison.

During this period, another business partner of the VP's son is also tried, convicted and sentenced for felony financial crimes.

Also during this time, yet another foreign business partner, also connected to the military of the hostile foreign partner, travels to Moscow and signs a deal with the corrupt officials running Russia's state-owned oil company in clear violation of US and EU sanctions imposed on that company.

Then, 10 months after the conviction in a US court of the first corrupt individual in this ring surrounding the VP's son, his laptop surfaces in a repair shop. He makes no effort to claim that laptop which contains over 27,000 sensitive business and personal emails, messages, documents, photos, and videos -- including pr0nographic videos of himself with prostitutes as part of his live-streamed personal pr0nographic channel hosted on a pr0n website. Additional photos revealed to the public show the VP's son smoking crack and cavorting with prostitutes after doing illegal drugs.

Most importantly, company documents in the form of texts and emails show, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that this corrupt individual's father, the Vice President of the United States, not only was aware of his son's illicit business deals with a front organization for the leadership of America's most dangerous rival but also took a significant (10%) cut of the payments made to the US partners by that hostile power.

Questions:

Have we ever, in the 230-year history of this country, seen such anything close to this degree of actual, documented corruption on the part of a Vice President or President of the USA?

Is it even remotely conceivable that such corruption, in conjunction with a hostile foreign owner that is the nation's deadliest rival on the world stage, could possibly be revealed and NOT lead to, at minimum, indictments of the son and the father?

Could the above story -- the story of not just the week or month or year but the biggest story of at least 100 years --could this horror story possibly go unreported by the nation's major newsmedia companies?

Why do we tolerate this state of affairs?

How did we arrive at this surreal, unthinkable pass?

When future historians analyze the causes of America's second Civil War, the more astute historians will point to the coverup of the story of the China's recruitment of the Biden Crime Family as the proximate cause.

#1  Barr also said in public that Epstein committed suicide. Uh, yeah, gotcha, Bill.
