Exactly as predicted by pretty much everyone. The US can now only ever be destroyed. Whether by its own citizenry or a foreign adversary, our leaders are too busy making bank to defend us rubes. We've been on our own for some time but this puts the shine to that.

But I was promised that there would be no scandals. Maybe we were promised no sandals and it autocorrected.

The proper procedure would have been to threaten him with felony charges and hard time unless he agreed to testify against the Big Guy. Instead, he gets a slap on the wrist in the hope that it will satisfy everybody and that now everybody will just shut up about Hunter. Two tier justice system is still firmly in place.

/\ The 'proper procedure' would have involved electricity.

are we sure this is the end of the investigation
the charges don't cover 'acting as a unregistered foreign agent' which seems like an obvious charge
also, money laundering seems obvious

The “investigation” will be ongoing for the purposes of stonewalling any action against the Bidens.
It does not matter. In reality, this is the Bud Lite can for our favorite Delaware crime syndicate. Joe’s polls will tank tonight and there will be no plateau. This action was DC business as usual in an environment where the American people have no more patience.
The toilet will now be plunged and flushed. By the end of July, everyone will be talking about what a bad mistake this was. Like the Target CEOs, all of the Washington crowd will be brainstorming how to JBWeld their Humpty back into the papier-mâché puppet that had been so useful for their purposes. It won’t work. This day was neap tide in their dukey show. Now they will flow out to their doom. The last chance to step on the beach has passed at noon. The Titanic is in the news for a reason that they did not discern. Bon Voyage.

^ I think this is correct. They can't help themselves and they don't even recognize they have a problem.
And by "they," I mean the entire dem party, the media (but I repeat myself) and the deep state, which includes many people whose ideology is neither left nor right, but "me."

They went too far. They won’t know it for weeks because the shift will happen in the 40 states that they pay no attention to.

I dunno, Super. Hope you're right but MSM will make scant mention of this and then drop it down the Memory Hole. Since most people get all of their information from the TV nightly news, that could well be all that comes of it. A lot of people know what it's like to have one or more "troubled individuals" in their families. The point will be made that Hunter is not Joe and Joe didn't know. MSM will not contradict it. Target and Bud Lite will ride out the storm without apology. Biden's puppet masters will try to do the same.

As a rule, tipping points look unremarkable in hindsight. The notion that this isn't bad enough to be it is probably incorrect.

As to "they", paraphrasing: "I admire their purity... unclouded by conscience, remorse or delusions of morality. I can't lie to you about our chances, but you have my sympathies.".

This picture says it all. Sleazoid that he is, Newsom is at least "with it" and smiling. Newsom knows where he is and what he's doing there. Biden has that blank expression on his face that says he hasn't a clue.

[WFB] Several firefighters injured in 'ginormous' blaze; suspect also donated to the Lincoln Project
What happened: Authorities busted a Democratic donor for allegedly starting a "ginormous inferno" in Yosemite National Park. Democratic politicians had insisted climate change was to blame for the blaze, which destroyed more than 100 homes and injured several firefighters in July 2022.
• Edward Fredrick Wackerman (his actual name) of Mariposa, Calif., faces a number of charges including aggravated arson following his arrest on Friday.
By the numbers: The arson suspect has donated $1,775 to Democratic candidates and committees since 2020, government records show, including a $1,000 donation to Tim Ryan's failed U.S. Senate campaign in 2022 and $400 to the Lincoln Project, a disgraced liberal super PAC.
• The so-called Oak Fire destroyed 127 homes and 66 outbuildings. Roughly 6,000 people were forced to evacuate as the inferno torched 30 square miles of land and smoke from the fire drifted more than 200 miles into parts of Nevada and the San Francisco Bay Area.
What they're saying: "Ed Wackerman is facing several felony charges, including aggravated arson. These charges carry serious legal consequences and the District Attorney is committed to ensuring a fair trial and upholding justice," Mariposa County District Attorney Walter Wall said in a statement. Authorities did not say how Wackerman is believed to have started the fire.
What they said: "Thank you to all the firefighters and first responders working tirelessly under difficult conditions to combat the #OakFire," Sen. Alex Padilla (D., Calif.) wrote on Twitter on July 25, 2022. "Worsening drought and severe weather will only continue to put lives and property at risk from wildfire if we don't take climate action NOW."
• "More people will be killed and the survival of our civilization is at stake," former Vice President Al Gore said on July 24, 2022, citing climate change as the reason "droughts and fires are hitting us so hard."
Crucial context: Several days before Wackerman's arrest, authorities busted Democratic donor Themis Matsoukas for allegedly performing sexual acts with his dog at Rothrock State Forest in Pennsylvania. "I do it to blow off steam," the Elizabeth Warren supporter told investigators.
• Matsoukas is 64 years old; Wackerman is 71.
Bottom line: We need a total and complete shutdown of liberal Baby Boomers entering state and national parks until we can figure out what the hell is going on.

Democrats commit all kinds of crimes that they blame on others. Once in a while they get caught.

A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
