[PAGESIX] The woman suing Hunter Biden for paternity was a stripper at a Washington, DC, club he frequented around the time he was dating his brother’s widow, sources told The Post.
Biden was repeatedly seen at the Mpire Club in the capital’s historic Dupont Circle neighborhood ‐ where Lunden Alexis Roberts, the mother of his alleged love child, worked under the stage name "Dallas," the sources said.
"He was well-known," a source said of Biden, the son of former Vice President 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... , the Democratic front-runner to challenge President Trump next year.
Several Mpire workers said they recognized Roberts, 28, who last week filed court papers that say DNA testing proved Hunter, 49, fathered the child she gave birth to in August 2018.
Roberts worked there around the time she got pregnant ‐ and when Hunter broke up with former sister-in-law Hallie Biden, the widow of his brother, the late Delaware Attorney General Beau Biden, sources said.
Roberts’ husband-and-wife lawyers, Clint and Jennifer Lancaster, didn’t return repeated phone and email messages seeking comment. Rico - Pull out those 'Lolita Express' flight manifests please.
A receptionist at their Benton, Arkansas, law firm said, "They got them."
The Mpire Club is about three blocks north of another DC strip joint, Archibald’s Gentlemen’s Club, where The Post previously revealed that workers suspected Hunter, who has a history of alcoholism and addiction, of smoking crack in a VIP room in late 2018.

When this story surfaced, Roberts was described as a college bassetbaw player. With how cancel culture operates, I expect she will be disappeared from the university's records now...

[Times of Israel] British Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, accused by the Jewish community of tolerating anti-Semitism in his party’s ranks, once told Iranian state media that the BBC "has a bias towards saying that... Israel has a right to exist."
In the 2011 interview with Iran’s PressTV, posted on Twitter Tuesday by the British political blogger The Golem, Corbyn explains that "there’s pressure on the BBC from, probably, [then-BBC director general] Mark Thompson, who seems to me to have an agenda in this respect. There seems to be a great deal of pressure on the BBC from the Israeli government, from the Israeli embassy, and they are very assertive towards all journalists and toward the BBC itself. They challenge every single thing on reporting the whole time."
That Israeli pressure and bias from the likes of Thompson, Corbyn goes on to say, mean the corporation leans in favor of Israel’s existence.
[Jpost] Sir Richard Evans, one of the world’s leading historians of Nazi Germany, on Friday reversed his decision to support the British Labour Party in the December 12 election.
“Back from a visit to Germany to find Anthony Julius's persuasive open letter to me in the New Statesman. As much as [Labour leader Jeremy] Corbyn's lamentable failure to apologise in his tv interview, or the intervention of the Chief Rabbi, this has persuaded me to change my mind and not vote Labour,” wrote Evans on Twitter.
Julius, a British solicitor advocate who holds the chair in Law and Arts in the Faculty of Laws at University College London, wrote to Evans: “Let me remind you, on the subject of the Jews, the party has become cruel, malicious, stupid and dishonest. The cruelty has been persistent and extreme – death threats, shouted abuse at branch meetings, online trolling. The malice has been patent, incontinent and pervasive.”
Evans tweeted on Sunday that “I'm voting Labour. Great manifesto, pity about the leader, shame about Labour's support for Brexit, though at least they promise another referendum. The failure to deal with antisemitism in the party makes me very angry. But in my constituency only Labour can beat the Tory.” Evans's message electrified the Twitterverse because of his standing as a prominent historian and intellectual historian.
Julius responded in his letter: “But recall Corbyn's disparagement of ‘Zionists who, having lived in this country for a very long time, probably all their lives, they don’t understand English irony.’ My friend David Hirsh got it right: Corbyn was enjoying the old, sneery English view of Jews, and he was doing it to humiliate the Jews he was talking about. They live among us but they’re not really one of us.

Seems pretty risky. I realize this is their chance to *finally* get Trump (HAH!), but there is no way the Dems can poke around in the Ukraine mess and not get poo all over themselves.
[Politico] On the substance, Democrats won the first two weeks of the impeachment hearings by TKO. They had the advantage that the facts are in their favor, especially considering the ground that congressional Republicans have tried to defend.
At the outset, Republicans created an impossible standard for themselves. Taking their cues from President Donald Trump, they chose to defend the idea that the Trump-Ukraine call was "perfect" and that there was "no quid pro quo," when the record simply wouldn’t support it. This was obvious enough about the call from the very beginning, and it became clear about the pressure campaign on the Ukrainians by the time the opening statement of acting Ambassador to Ukraine William Taylor’s deposition was released.
The contention that the call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was the Platonic ideal of a communication with a foreign leader opened the way for Democrats to make a big deal of witnesses alarmed or unsettled by the conversation. Thus, the brief star turn for Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman to come and tell the committee that the call was "inappropriate." And the newsworthy testimony from Jennifer Williams, an aide to Vice President Mike Pence, that the call was "unusual," and from former National Security Council aide Tim Morrison, putting it even more delicately, that "it is not what we recommend the president discuss."
There really should be no debate about these characterizations of the call, except Republicans decided to try to have one.
Republicans now emphasize that none of the witnesses so far had direct knowledge of Trump’s directives on Ukraine and that even Gordon Sondland, the ambassador to the European Union, said the president formally denied a quid pro quo to him in a phone conversation (albeit late in the game and at the same time Trump said he wanted Zelensky "to do the right thing"). Yeah, unfortunate, that, right Dems and Never-Trumping assholes? Allahpundit and MSNBC wept. CNN...spasmed
This might be a defense that is useful only so long as no first-hand witnesses testify. But it gets to a weakness in the Democrats’ argument that will probably become even more prominent when the impeachment case, as it almost surely will, makes it to the Senate for a trial (and an acquittal).

Kabuki. When voting time comes they will be all on board. This is just jockeying to see which 15 vulnerable dems are allowed to vote no. Or 16 if Justin Amash Justnot Anass votes with the dems...

Seems the first paragraph in the exurpt is backwards which explains a lot about why democrats need explanations.

This has been a staggering display of incompetence. All they need is a 1950-style Soviet show trial to conclude that Academician Trumpsky is a deviationist wrecker, and they can't manage that.

If anybody thought that Michael Bloomberg would present himself as a truly moderate Democratic presidential candidate, I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint them: on Tuesday, Bloomberg said that the United States needs "an awful lot more immigrants rather than less." "This lawn's not gonna cut itself"
Ah. You can just hear AOC, Ilhan Omar, and Rashida Tlaib clapping, can't you?
"We need immigrants to take all the different kinds of jobs that the country needs ‐ improve our culture, our cuisine, our religion, our dialogue and certainly improve our economy," Bloomberg told reporters (nobody else seems to be interested in his campaign so far) at a... Mexican restaurant in Arizona.
After saying America needs more immigrants, Bloomberg went on to rip into President Trump. "Ripping kids away from their parents is a disgrace," he said, conveniently neglecting to mention that separating illegal immigrant families from each other actually (also) happened under President Obama. President Trump, on the other hand, ended the practice.

our cuisine, our religion
I find that interesting. One of the things that crystallized my departure from the Lutheran Church (ELCA) was when the congregation I attended, which had several outstanding ministers in its history, hired a woman who had not yet been ordained. I remember her droning on and on in her introductory sermon about how unfulfilled she had been as a waitress and how she knew she was going to be a good minister (ordination optional) I'm glad I was not around for my blood pressure to be spiked by the call to import some Syrian "refugees" on a nearly broke congregation's dime. I actually give more now, but it's Prison Fellowship and Angel Tree.

This guy's most noteworthy act as a political executive is the banning of big gulp drinks from 7-11, an act simultaneously inconsequential and extremely irritating. Why is he being taken seriously? If he polls any better than Harris or Booker I'll be shocked.

America Bloomberg and his fellow oligarchs needs want more immigrants shit-wage imported peasants so they can destroy the American middle class altogether
Except higher immigration is correlated with stagnant wages for working people, blue and white collar. It's good for executives, it drives down wages, but it's hell on the lowest skilled citizens.
And improve our religion? Pardon me? What do we have to learn from people who invariably come from states with official religions or official suppression of religions? Does the US need to learn how to put on a pogrom? Are we lacking in our suttee skills? Fer crissake, this is a country where some of our favorite Christmas songs were written by Jews, we know it, and we love them all the more!
And people don't just bring their tasty food -- they bring their tribalism, their ages-old feuds, their attitudes towards women, and, yes, their racism.

[Real Clear Politics] Last week the presidential campaign of Donald Trump announced a six-figure ad buy across black radio stations and in black newspapers. The newspaper campaign targeted 11 major markets in key states across the nation, including Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Virginia — all states that the Trump team believes will be in play in 2020. The radio ads were run in the same 11 urban markets. Under their theme of “Black Voices for Trump,” it is clear that the Trump campaign is emulating what the Franklin D. Roosevelt campaign did in 1936.
Just as Roosevelt overwhelmingly lost the black vote in 1932, doing worse than Al Smith in 1928, Trump lost the black vote in 2016. But, again like Roosevelt in 1932, Trump did reach out to the black electorate in 2016. Both FDR in ’32 and Trump in ’16 had some limited but encouraging success in winning over these voters: Roosevelt in New York where he had been governor, and Trump in Pennsylvania where his outreach helped provide his margin of victory in that key state.
The groundwork laid in 1932 was crucial to FDR’s success with black voters in 1936. In fact, in that first election, a wealthy oilman and key supporter of the Democrat, Frank Benedum, “saw the conversion of the black vote as a potential means of swinging Pennsylvania into the Roosevelt column,” Nancy J. Weiss wrote in “Farewell to the Party of Lincoln.” Benedum knew the key was longtime Republican supporter Robert L. Vann, editor of the Pittsburgh Courier, one of the biggest and most influential black newspapers in America. By 1932 Vann was fed up with the GOP. In his view, all the Republicans seemingly cared about was black votes, not the goals and aspirations of black Americans.

Then bring back the exported light and medium industry that provided the backbone of the economy for the less educated urban population. What replaced it, welfare and drugs, locked in the black vote for Democrats.
