[Red State] - Mark Levin hosts "Life, Liberty and Levin" show on Fox News Channel on Saturday nights. Last Saturday, he interviewed Peter Schweizer, author of the new book, Profiles in Corruption: Abuse of Power by America’s Progressive Elite. Much of the interview provided amazing details on Biden family corruption. Here are some excerpts from that interview: Long & very informative

Yes.
Brother. Son. Sister.
Iraq Reconstruction contracts.
Ukrainian energy company slush.
ChiCom investment fund money laundering.
Cokehead son screws his brother's widow, at the same time he's nailing and impregnating strippers and running through hundreds of 000s in drugs & luxury hotel stays.
And paterfamilias openly BOASTS ABOUT LEANING ON foreign aid recipients to fire a meddlesome prosecutor about to bust the Cokehead for corruption.
[FreeBeacon] Rep. Ilhan Omar (D., Minn.) continues to push campaign cash to a firm run by her alleged boyfriend, filings show.
Omar's new committee filings submitted Friday morning show that between Oct. 1 and Dec. 31, 2019, her committee made $215,000 in additional payments to the E Street Group, a firm run by political consultant Tim Mynett, Omar's alleged boyfriend. The payments were reported as going toward consulting, direct mail, research services, travel expenses, advertisements, and graphic design.
The new payments mark another increase in money funneled to the firm. Mynett's group is yet again the highest-paid vendor from Omar's campaign.
[NYSun] The verdict on the impeachment of President Trump may not be in ‐ formally. All the more pronounced, though, is the petulance of the Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, in the face of what appears to be her pending defeat in the Senate. She’s even hinted (please see above) at disbarment of the President’s lawyers. Her role in this proceeding will, we predict, go down as one of the most shocking performances by any holder of America’s third highest office.
This is a broader problem than just Mrs. Pelosi’s behavior. That is a point well made this morning by Michael Goodwin in Alexander Hamilton’s old paper, the New York Post. He reckons that it was Secretary Clinton who ended the tradition of gracious concessions that has, in the main, marked our politics. On impeachment he quotes Senator Schumer as attacking the integrity of the very Senate in which he serves.
Nothing civil from Mr. Schumer. No statement like, "Gee, the House did a fine job, but, I regret, it wasn’t quite thorough enough to convince the Senate. The Constitution sets a high bar." No, what Mr. Schumer said was: "The Senate turned away from truth and went along with a sham trial." The verdict Wednesday will be, he predicted, "meaningless." In other words, he put a dagger through the heart of his own institution.
"A Dishonorable Senate" is the headline the Times stuck over its editorial on the denouement of the trial of Mr. Trump. It couldn’t imagine another explanation. "Cringing abdication" is how the Washington Post described the Senate conclusion that it had enough evidence. Not one note of humility has been sounded by any Democrat over the failure of the House to adduce the evidence needed to convince the solons. Gee, who coulda' seen that comin'?:
The Internet is boiling over with warnings that the evidence is going to come out eventually, probably sooner than later. It’s not clear to us why that supports the Democratic case to call witnesses now. If the evidence is damning enough, the House can impeach again. If evidence comes out soon enough, the Democrats can take it to the hustings between now and November 5. What will linger is the Democrats’ petulence.
Speaker Pelosi’s own highly partisan role in the impeachment she claimed to want to avoid invites the same kind of cynicism she’s expressed in respect of Mr. Trump. We don’t share that cynicism. We understand, though, why some do. Mrs. Pelosi, after all, has used her office to advance an impeachment that, were it successful, would have been a benefit to her, moving her one notch closer to the presidency.
We touched on this in our editorial the second time Mrs. Pelosi acceded to Speaker. Both times Mrs. Pelosi broke the House’s glass ceiling, we joined in the joy expressed by many women. How sad that she has failed to set a better tone for the Democrats. They’ve tried faithless electors. They tried the courts. They tried the deep state. They tried a special prosecutor. Not even impeachment, it seems, will bring closure.

Democrats didn't make their Case. Baloney, Partisan Baloney from start to finish.No interest in finding the Truth. The Donks aren't interested, and they are terrified that Trump is POPULAR with the Average American. The Dems are running with Bernie as Stalin and AOC as Veep. I don't see any future in that. Trump WILL win in a Landslide. There is a good chance Trump will get a Mandate when he pushes a Majority in the Mid Term Elections. The US population sees the Donks have no Ideas and nothing to offer. They have produced zip of any use to the American People. Obama was eight years of no jobs ( the New Normal ) and excuses. He winds up with NO legacy. A serious contender for worst ever/ and along comes Trump who will win in a Landslide. Watch it happen. The Dems are on a hell bound train. watch it happen.

If Joe Biden has the answers for the economy, foreign relations, and conflicts abroad, why didn't he share it with Soetoro? They were buds and worked together for eight years.

I'm amazed at how little power the word "communist" has these days. I was having a conversation with an otherwise intelligent woman a few nights ago and a flippant comment regarding socialism came up. I could tell immediately that the word "socialism" barely registered with her-her eyes flickered as if she instinctively knew that the word was *supposed* to have some meaning to her, but it genuinely didn't. This woman own hers own home, inherited two others a year ago, has had the same job for 15 years as an administrative analyst. Our "betters" have done a very effective job of rendering "communism" and "socialism" as meaningless words, rather than allowing them to evoke the revulsion they so richly deserve.

The Wall fell over 30 years ago. The USSR collapsed nearly 28 years ago. Our ridiculous joke of a press corps refuses to remind people of the nightmare that was Communism: no more photojournalism involving trips to the Siberian gulags, or hellish descents into factories in Norilsk, or dispatches from the killing fields of Timisoara, or remembrances of those slaughtered in Gdansk or elsewhere.

Yet Nazi had sting until a year or so ago when it became the go-to slur. Guess the Nazi's should have marched through the schools, hollywood, music scene, the way the communists did.

Nailed it.
And notice that there was never the equivalent of a Nuremburg trial for the Comms, let a alone a reckoning for the fellow travelers.
They never paid a price for their evil, and now here we are.

No, I don't think he's a "communist". Unless you think that Denmark or Norway are Communist countries.
Btw I don't think Venezuela is communist. It's a country ruled by a kleptocratic clique pretending to be socialist.
Hmm ok, what was I saying again?

Denmark and Norway are about 98 percent white, one 'tribe', with an embedded Lutheran culture that is intolerant of corruption. Never use the exception as the rule. Just as don't use us as an example.
While there is regulation in both countries of business and industry in both, are you saying they operate in the old Soviet central planning mode of economics? Cause if you listen very carefully to Bernie and Warren, that's what they are articulating.

No, certainly not. Now, I don't know how far Bernie would venture into that territory, but I think he'll never get anything "communist" through Congress even if Democrats had control over both houses.
His followers would soon be very disappointed.

Bernie's a clown. He's achieved absolutely NOTHING in fifty years in politics. Nothing.

Very early in the race I thought Klobuchar would do quite well. Was surprised that this didn't happen but she's on the move.
If she manages to come in third in Iowa and N.H., she might be a contender.

Bernie would be tougher on Trump, would peel away many more voters in MI WI and PA.
Yeah, but Bernie's the real thing: full-communist without apologies. And most of the leadership of the Democratic Party are comfortable, wealthy people who want to rule you for your own good. They don't want to be held to the same standards themselves, and they don't want to die poor.
