Did Joe Biden benefit from Hunter Biden's shake-downs?

Things are heating up for Joe Biden, aka the Brand. This summer, Joe Biden said "Where's the money?" when he was accused of being part of Hunter Biden's pay-to-play scheme. I wrote this post yesterday to highlight a check paid out from Jim Biden's personal account to Joe Biden's personal account. The check memo line says that it was for a loan repayment. FYI- They're still searching for the original loan from Joe to Jim. Speculation is that loan is fiction.

That was Friday's news. Saturday is a different Biden fiasco story that will pose more problems for the Big Guy. This story, though, raises questions that are more difficult to explain away. RedState's Nick Arama wrote this article in which he highlights a sticker-to-explain transaction. According to the article, "Now there's a report that Joe Biden, the guy who always talked about how he was one of the poor senators, paid almost $2.75 million in cash for his Rehoboth Beach home in 2017." How's that for an attention-getting headline? That's where the plot takes another twist:

And making the transaction even stranger it was within weeks of a highly questionable text that Hunter had sent to Henry Zhao, an associate at Chinese oil giant CEFC asking to seal a deal worth $10 million a year.
Jamie Comer on the Jim Biden 'loan repayment' check:

Think about this question: how could Joe Biden, once one of the poorest senators in DC, pay $2,750,000 in cash for a Rehoboth Beach mansion and borrow $200,000 to his brother? Let's remember that the Bidens bought their Rehoboth Beach home in 2017, just shortly after he left office. Biden went from making $300,000-400,000 a year in most of those years to making 11,000,000+ in 2017. Biden made $4,500,000+ in 2018. How did Joe go from making $200,000-$400,000 while in office to making $11,000,000 in 2017? That sounds like he cashed in on being 'The Brand."

Is Joe Biden our Grifter-in-Chief?

Apparently, Joe Biden doesn't care about the law or Supreme Court rulings. When asked about the ruling on his student loan bailout, Biden said that the Supreme Court misinterpreted the Constitution. He knows they didn't. That's just what he said to preserve the opportunity to introduce his next unconstitutional plan that will get rejected by the Supreme Court. This isn't about whether it's constitutional. It's about whether he can con enough young people into voting for him in 2024. Biden must've anticipated this ruling. Within an hour of the ruling, the Administration was out with this detailed fact sheet to replace the plan that he knew would fail. It opens with the same partisan attack as Democrats have mouthed. The fact sheet opens by saying "No President has fought harder for student debt relief than President Biden, and he’s not done yet. President Biden and Vice President Harris will not let Republican elected officials succeed in denying hard

Tim Walz's Confederate Flag Fiasco

Image
After Minnesota's Democrats shoved the most controversial progressive legislation down Minnesotans' throats, gossip started popping up about Gov. Walz being interested in running for president . That's died off but Gov. Walz is still making headlines, this time for all the wrong reasons. First, Gov. Walz isn't the brightest bulb in the chandelier. Still, Gov. Walz is fighting against Minnesota's history. This Alpha News article quotes David Hann, the chairman of Minnesota's Republican Party, as saying " The flag the DFL has eliminated was a version of the historic flag our regiments fought under during the Civil War. Minnesota was the first state to offer troops to the Union cause in 1861 , beginning a long tradition of leading the nation in confronting injustice. The DFL quest to erase our history is repugnant and should be rejected." Gov. Walz, though, sees things differently. He's quoted as saying "Minnesota is a diverse state, it continue

Maria Bartiromo's interrogation of Gov. Ron DeSantis

Image
Yesterday, Maria Bartiromo interrogated Gov. Ron DeSantis on Sunday Morning Futures. The first half of the interview, Bartiromo asked policy questions. Gov. DeSantis showed his understanding of the issues and presented his solutions on everything from China, inflation and growing the economy. The first reply he had was to cut spending. His next reply was to open energy production. Third, he talked about the importance of increasing productivity, which he correctly said is the best way to eliminate inflation. A little over half the way through the interview, though, it turned into an attack. Bartiromo asked "I'm wondering what's going on with your campaign. There was a lot of optimism about you running for president earlier in the year but here's this weekend's headline from the Politico Playbook: Failure to launch. Gov. Ron DeSantis's campaign to topple Donald Trump has stalled. We are way behind says a top DeSantis PAC official. What happened? Despite that bad
