The filing comes just over a week after Biden was revealed to be the father of 28-year-old Lunden Robert's child, having met her at a DC strip club
While Roberts is said to agree that a Protective Prder is appropriate, she has so far refused to fully commit to the current terms demanded by Biden
Roberts is suing Biden for $11K in legal fees as well as child support payments
In addition to the Protective Order, Biden is also requesting an upcoming December 2 hearing be delayed until a decision on the Protective Order is made
The former Ukraine energy executive goes on to admit he has incurred 'significant debts' partially caused by his April 2017 divorce to Kathleen Biden
Pissed it all away on strippers and coke. Really. The judge doesn't need to look at his check register.

The Bidens will agree to any settlement as long as it is secret since the $1.5B Chinese investment fund alone could be worth several hundred million dollars to Hunter upon termination.

I think every public employee down to the dog catcher and the janitor at the library should have their finances open book on the public record. Then watch a lot of people decide not to go on the public teat.

You wanted an investigation dems, you got it.
Sunlight is the best disinfectant so let it shine on Hunter's dumb ass!
[OneZero] New research highlights a surprising barrier to hacking our democracy: filter bubbles.
We know that Russian agents have been using social media to try to influence other countries’ politics since at least 2013. We know they’ve successfully posed as Americans to post divisive ...politicians call things divisive when when the other side sez something they don't like. Their own statements are never divisive, they're principled... propaganda on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, and we know they’ve generated significant engagement on all three platforms. They may have even managed to stage fake political rallies that real Americans attended.

... to post divisive propaganda on FB, Twitter...
"Divisive propaganda" - got it.
Extending tw's astute point, nothing posted by the trolls is more inflammatory and "divisive" than the half-decade or so of CONSTANT LIES about the actual incidence and extent of police brutality against black men and boys.
So let's see how the media/Woke/BLM logic works. According to them:
... it was not "divisive propaganda" when the BLM movement falsely claimed Michael Brown was murdered - and when nearly every Dem POTUS candidate repeated this lie.
... it was not "divisive propaganda" to claim that Trump, not Obama, initiated the policy of family separation and that Satan Mussolini-Trump was torturing poor innocent Guatemalan etc children, making them drink from toilets etc.
... it was not "divisive propaganda" to claim, for nearly THREE YEARS and in the face of all the hard indisputable evidence of escalation against and confrontation toward Russia, that Trump was an agent of the Russian government.

Has anyone ever been persuaded to change their opinion by something they read on Twitter? I didn't think so. It is basically a way to spout off and make your voice heard among all the other voices saying stupid stuff.

[Guardian] Campaigners for US presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders have been lending their support to the Labour party, running phone-banking sessions from New York ahead of the general election.
The city’s branch of Labour International has been working with the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), who have been calling British campaigners with tips on how to encourage people to register to vote and cast a ballot for Labour at the December poll.
The DSA endorses and campaigns for Sanders, who is running to be the Democratic presidential candidate for a second time after losing out to Hillary Clinton in 2016.
A spokesperson for Momentum, the grassroots Labour campaign group, said: "This is part of a growing relationship between Bernie, DSA activists and Momentum and Labour members abroad that has included exchanges between the nurses’ unions of the US and the UK to campaign on public health in the US.
"Many Labour International and Momentum members have been volunteers on Sanders’ campaign and so the favour’s being returned."
Canvassing sessions run by the US volunteers for Momentum campaigners in the UK on Saturdays are an attempt to support grassroots activism and turn out the vote for Labour.
Campaigners from Sanders’ team have previously run election training sessions for activists working on Corbyn’s 2017 election run to try to help direct the huge volume of volunteers the organisation attracts to the right constituencies. They have also shared digital campaigning methods.
The Labour International and DSA volunteers have also been running phone-banking sessions from Chicago, Toronto, Louisville and San Francisco.
The New York sessions are also being supported by overseas members of the Party of European Socialists, who have helped to source office space for canvassing sessions.
In Germany, where there are 16,000 British people registered to vote in the capital, Berlin, volunteers have been canvassing for Labour in bars and cafes as well as speaking to Britons at English-language events and talking to university students.
Momentum supporters in Paris have been leafleting Eurostar’s British customers ahead of voter registration closing. New Labour International groups have set up in southern France for the first time this election, with campaigners meeting in cities such as Lyon to try and turn out the expat vote.
The international campaigning effort for Labour comes as Momentum claims its work could swing the election. It has encouraged more than 100,000 people to register to vote since the beginning of the campaign through Facebook adverts, including at least 87,000 in marginal constituencies.
Of the 101,422 so far who may have registered via Momentum’s voter registration adverts, it claims the majority were younger voters ‐ below the age of 35 ‐ in key marginal constituencies.
Momentum has been targeting young people in marginals with viral videos such as "We Don’t Want Your Vote" ‐ viewed 1.1m times on Facebook ‐ and "Please Don’t Vote".
Laura Parker, Momentum’s national coordinator, said: "All the polls are based on the assumption that young people and those who haven’t voted before won’t bother turning out. But this election we are seeing record numbers register to vote ‐ including nearly 100,000 whom we have encouraged to register in marginal constituencies, which could swing the election."

American socialist phone bank calls to British voters supporting one political candidate? Isn’t there a crime in there somewhere?
[WSJ] The Speaker of the House who called a border wall with Mexico "an immorality" is still sitting on a Mexican request to approve a new trade agreement. What is the morality of ignoring this key priority of our southern neighbors?
In a letter this week, Mexico’s President Andrés Manuel López Obrador takes another shot at persuading Mrs. Pelosi to accept yes for an answer on a union-friendly renegotiation of the North American Free Trade Agreement:
Dear Madam Speaker:
Following up on my letter dated October 8, I would like to inform you that, with approval of our 2020 federal budget, which includes appropriations for implementing the labor law reforms that I have promoted, we have fully met our commitments regarding the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA).
A bona fide leftist, Mr. López Obrador by now must be wondering how many of the Speaker’s liberal allies he needs to lobby to get this deal done. Writes the Mexican president:
I reiterate here what I have said in my conversations with the Congressional delegation led by Representative Richard Neal, Chairman of the Boodle Central, and AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka, regarding a key concern that has been raised: you can be assured that we will fulfill our labor-related commitments.
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Jean-Claude Juncker uses his last day in office to stick two fingers up to Britain by boasting Brexit has made the EU MORE popular than ever in typical fashion (but Brussels will certainly be a duller place without his merry antics)
Today is Jean-Claude Juncker's last day as president of European Commission
He will step down after five year term to make way for Ursula von der Leyen
Said Brexit continues to 'break my heart' - but claimed it boosted EU popularity
Didn't these people try to wipe themselves out about a hundred years ago? Along with a little assist by the Bolsheviks. Should have known when the French failed in 1793.
German landed aristocracy, overachieving type reared to a life of service, from a family of same: studied at the notoriously Marxist London School of Economics while hiding from kidnap plans of the Red Army Faction, MD in women’s health, (is that what Americans call obstetrics/gynocology?), married a fellow aristocrat who professed at Stanford while she reared their seven children, then on their return to Germany, after teaching at Hannover medical school she followed in her father’s footsteps and went into politics in the CDU, where she quickly caught Angela Merkel’s eye. I wonder if this post is meant as a consolation prize after Frau Merkel tapped that other woman to be her successor.
[DAILYCALLER]The New York Times
...which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize... obtained a strongly-worded resignation letter from a former Kámala Harris Former Oakland mayor Willie Brown's former mistress, now a senatrix from California and 2020 Dem presidential hopeful, indistinguishable from the others... campaign staffer, who said she has "never seen an organization treat its staff so poorly."
The Times published the letter Friday as part of a longer story about Harris’ fading campaign.
"While I still believe that Senator Harris is the strongest candidate to win in the General Election in 2020, I no longer have confidence in our campaign or its leadership," former staffer Kelly Mehlenbacher wrote in her resignation letter. "The treatment of our staff over the last two weeks was the final straw in a very difficult decision."
Mehlenbacher accepted a job earlier this week with former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, a late entry into the race, according to Politico. The veteran Democratic campaign staffer previously worked on Crooked Hillary Clinton ...former first lady, former secretary of state, former presidential candidate, Conqueror of Benghazi, Heroine of Tuzla, formerly described by her supporters as the smartest woman in the world, usually described by the rest of us as The Thing That Wouldn't Go Away... ’s 2016 presidential campaign.

Published because she was clearly not socialist enough.
[NYPOST] President Trump slammed Newsweek over its story on his Thanksgiving plans, which it said included "tweeting, golfing and more," though he ended up making a surprise visit to US troops in Afghanistan.
"I thought Newsweek was out of business?" the president wrote along with a retweet of his son Donald Trump ...Oh, noze! Not him!... Jr.’s photo of the commander-in-chief serving Thanksgiving dinner to the service members.
Attached to the image was a screenshot of Newsweek’s story, with the headline: "How is Trump spending Thanksgiving? Tweeting, golfing and more."
The writer began the story by writing, "As with any other day of the year, Trump will probably be tweeting, or expressing his opinions in another way."
"Fake news gonna fake!" the president’s oldest son wrote.
In an updated version of its piece, the mag added the president’s first trip to Afghanistan as president to the headline.
"President Donald Trump made a surprise trip to visit US troops in Afghanistan on Thanksgiving Day and said he had reopened negotiations with the Taliban ...mindless ferocity in a turban... ," Newsweek wrote.

Where America Gets Its News] Former Polish president Aleksander Kwasniewski says Hunter Biden got a seat on the board of Ukrainian gas company Burisma because of his father
Hunter joined Burisma in 2014 - while Joe Foreign Policy Whiz Kid Biden
...Failed seeker of the Democratic presidential nomination on multiple occasions, vice president under Barack Obama, giving it a last try in his dotage for 2020...
was Vice President
Kwasniewski, who was president from 1995 to 2005, says that Hunter didn't abuse his political connections to father to further the company's interests
He said Hunter rarely spoke about his own family, only when asked
'He was a normal member of this group,' Kwasniewski said
His time on the board has come under scrutiny in the presidential impeachment inquiry after Trump asked Ukraine's president to investigate Hunter's work there

No, certainly not! In fact he did nothing, including showing up, for a cool $1 million/year + a cut of of the $15 million Rosemont Seneca money transferred by Burisma.

I found some interesting links re: Burisma a couple weeks ago. The owner, Nikolai Zlochevsky, used to be Yanukovych's minister of Ecology, and would write drilling permits for his own company while he was in that position.
I've come to the conclusion that Burisma's purpose in existance was to tie up all the permits and drill them very slowly so that Ukraine would stay dependent on Russia, and that the Democrats are in on the con, and guilty of everything they accuse Trump of.
#4
Part of the reason Biden wanted the prosecutor fired was to protect himself and his son, but also to protect the con itself and keep the new government from unwinding the con, where Burisma had most of the drilling permits in the country via government fiat.

Very interesting hypothesis. Wondered why Ukraine wasn't producing a lot more gas, other than corruption, when they have large shale and coal seam formations.

Just between you and me, I hate that article. For instance, it says "Burisma explores and produces at eight locations in five regions" which doesn't give you any solid information such as "how many rigs do they have operating." It also says "See also Trump-Ukraine Scandal" as if Captain Alzheimers isn't on tape bragging about getting people in Ukraine fired for daring to investigate the con.
The U.S. ambassador to the EU, who has been at the center of Donald Trump ...The tack in the backside of the Democratic Party... 's impeachment scandal in Washington, has no intention of resigning over allegations of sexual misconduct, a close associate said Thursday.
Sondland has flatly denied the accusations, made by three women, who allege he engaged in inappropriate behavior years before he was named Trump's envoy to the EU.
"No intention of resigning," the associate said, in response to a question about whether Sondland believed he could still work effectively as a diplomat in Brussels given the distractions of the impeachment process, in which he has been forced to travel to Washington to testify, and the new allegations of inappropriate behavior.
The allegations by the three women were reported by Portland Monthly, a magazine in Sondland's home city of Portland, Oregon, and ProPublica, a New York-based nonprofit investigative news outlet.
All three of the women who accused Sondland of unwanted touching, in incidents that allegedly occurred between 2003 and 2011, agreed to be named in the report. One of them, Nicole Vogel, is the owner of Portland Monthly magazine, and said the unwanted touching occurred as she was trying to convince Sondland, a wealthy hotel developer, to invest in her company.

Are we to assume the hoped for Sondland "investment" never materialized ?
