Slowly, but surely, the noose tightens around the Biden's crime families neck. When Biden leaves office, maybe Bragg or one of his stooge colleagues will light him and his family up with multiple indictments for half the corrupt Biden clan, all nine members ID'd to date.

This recent whistleblower claims DOJ Garland may have provided false testimony to Congress and has offered to testify to Congress and provide sworn testimony and documentary evidence.

 

“A decorated supervisory IRS agent has reported to the Justice Department’s top watchdog that federal prosecutors appointed by Joe Biden have engaged in “preferential treatment and politics” to block criminal tax charges against presidential son Hunter Biden, providing evidence as a whistleblower that conflicts with Attorney General Merrick Garland’s recent testimony to Congress that the decision to bring charges against Biden was being left to the Trump-appointed U.S. Attorney for Delaware….”

Ask yourself a few things, ie, for one, why has Biden, or no member of his family denied these payments from the CCP or at least explained what they did to earn these payments form communist China. They have not, because there is only one logical conclusion here and in the words of Chairman Comer of the House Oversight Committee: "the walls are closing in on the Biden's..."

 

“Despite serious risks of retaliation, my client is offering to provide you with information necessary to exercise your constitutional oversight function and wishes to make the disclosures in a non-partisan manner to the leadership of the relevant committees on both sides of the political aisle,” Mark Lytle, an attorney for the IRS whistleblower, said in a letter to a handful of Democrats and Republicans leading committees in the House and Senate”.

 
This statement from your source article is so telling(despite  serious risks of retaliation)! The lame stream sycophants or unelected bureaucrats better tone down their rhetoric and let the salt flo Imop.

Please link to evidence that this guy is a whistleblower in the usual sense of the word. i.e. an employee of the organisation and not some outsider making an allegation without any more evidence than possessed by you or me.

What govt organization does Weiss work for and how much OVERSIGHT has his investigation been through!I know the answer to that but it’s worth repeating!

The Whistleblower hopefully can shed some light on that in the committee hearings of investigating the weaponization of Government agencies .

 

 

U.S. attorneys and their offices are part of the Department of Justice. U.S. attorneys receive oversight, supervision, and administrative support services through the Justice Department's Executive Office for United States Attorneys.

As has been repeatedly noted Garland explicitly gave Weiss a high degree of autonomy in this case. Moreover, it's the usual policy of an administration to replace all the US attorneys appointed by a previous administration with new ones. The Biden administration explicitly excepted Weiss from this replacement policy.

Yes, it does rather support the claims of a dual justice system, doesn't it. The judicial/beaurocratic treatment of Presidents 44 and 45 are worlds apart. 

 

As a gentle reminder of why Biden's alleged crimes are of a different magnitude to the Stormy judicial moonshot.

 

“To be clear, Joe Biden is the ‘big guy.’ This evidence raises troubling questions about whether President Biden is a national security risk and about whether he is compromised by foreign governments.”

Rep James Comer.

Did you even read that WaPo article that you linked to?

 

It is a "fact checker" article that debunks virtually every claim that Comer is making.

 

As it states:

Comer made assertions that have not been proved, are in dispute or appear incorrect. Any potential connection between Joe Biden and his son’s business dealings, thus far, is especially strained.

 

[GroveHillWanderer]

As various organisations and media outlets have pointed out, James Comer is the archetypal MAGA conspiracy theorist (including election denier), Trump apologist and a proven liar, to boot.

Hee hee. Quoting Fox "News" as a reliable source.

 

[herfiehandbag]

Funny things family businesses really. The profits seem to go to family members. A bit like that fellow from New York (name escapes me for the moment), you know, lives on a golf course in Florida nowadays, the chap with orange hair, dealt in property, steaks, owned a university, a casino and lots of other ventures. All tied up with various members of his family.

 

Family businesses - don't really understand them myself.

Latest updates on possible charges against Hunter

 

"Now, he could be charged with “two misdemeanor counts for failure to file taxes, one felony count of tax evasion related to a business expense for one year of taxes,” and one potential felony charge regarding the 2018 gun purchase, according to the NBC News report, which cited two unnamed senior law enforcement sources."

I think at this juncture it might be useful to note what the subject of this thread is:

 

Six more Bidens may have gained from family business schemes: Comer

This accusation was entirely based on Suspicious Activity Reports being filed on them.  As pointed out previously, these are just precautionary reports filed by banks. Not by law enforcement agencies. Only 4 percent of them end up being investigated by law enforcement. And only a fraction of those result in criminal prosecutions. The odds against these reports being significant are huge.

Oversight is there for a reason, to fulfill a vital function, to provide proof to Americans if Biden is corrupt or not.

 

"The Oversight Committee will continue to pursue additional bank records to follow the Bidens’ tangled web of financial transactions to determine if the Biden family has been targeted by foreign actors and if there is a national security threat," Comer said, vowing to "soon provide the public with more information about what we’ve uncovered to date."

Except the FBI had the Biden laptop since 2019 and knew it was not a Russian information op. Acting DNI J Radcliff also confirmed the laptop was not Russian disinformation. The intel community conspired, at the request of Biden/Blinken to write a knowingly false letter to interfere in a federal election, full stop as they (Morell) have admitted as much.

Got evidence that the FBI knew that?

As for Acting DNI Ratcliffe, not exactly a trustworthy person. 

And you know why Ratcliffe was only acting DNI and not DNI? Trump ultimately withdrew his nomination for Ratcliffe to be DNI because he couldn't get enough backing from the Republican controlled Senate.

"Ratcliffe has little experience in national security or national intelligence and is reported to have demonstrated little engagement on the matters as a congressman.[5][6][62] Trump's intent to nominate Ratcliffe became controversial when he was found to have misrepresented his role in prosecuting terrorism and immigration cases.[5][63][64]"

And there's this:

Thirty-five days before the November 2020 election, Ratcliffe declassifed 2016 Russian disinformation that asserted Hillary Clinton had personally approved a scheme to associate Trump with Vladimir Putin and Russian hacking of the Democratic National Committee. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Ratcliffe_(American_politician)

This information has been characterized as baseless by a Republican Senate committee. Ratcliffe subsequently acknowledged that he couldn't vouch for its truthfulness.

Now that is genuine abuse by Ratcliffe of Intelligence. He was an official of the US government when he released that information.

 

And you persist in blaming what you call "the intelligence community". As already pointed out, the signatories were ex-employees of intelligence agencies.

They were all private citizen, so it was not illegal for them to do so.

As to Radcliff, for reasons explained by Placeholder, he was Trumps puppet and not trusted.

 

Yes, the laptop was sized by the FBI for the investigation into Hunter for financial matters. Is it common practice to disclose evidence used by a grand jury investigation? Or are you claiming that David Weiss, appointed by Trump and working for Trump's DOJ was covering up Biden?

This should be a much bigger story. Where is CNN, MSNBC, all the letter news agencies??

 

According to a former CIA director, the Intelligence Community used its platform to influence the outcome of the 2020 election. This latest development demonstrates even further how elements in the federal government are working to push a political agenda.

 

 

Morell stated under oath that "One intent was to share our concern with the American people that the Russians were playing on this issue".  Towards this end he "organized" a letter signed by 50 CIA colleagues which stated the laptop showed the hallmarks of a Russian disinformation campaign.  Nobody has contested the assessment of these agents.

 

I think the expression is "Tempest in a tea kettle."

Provide a source proving that the FBI knew that the information on the laptop was not Russian disinformation.

 

Provide a source proving that Radcliff had confirmed that the information on the laptop was not Russian disinformation, and how he had proven it.

 

Provide a source showing the people signing the letter knew it was false.

 

If you can't do that, you are guilty of libel and spreading disinformation.

So Jordan lied! Priceless! ????

 

Quote from the linked article:

"In response to questions posed by Chairman Jordan’s own lawyers, he testified that Mr. Blinken did not “direct, suggest, or insinuate in any way” that he should write a letter about Hunter Biden’s laptop.  Nor did Mr. Blinken—then a private citizen—try to get at the letter indirectly.  Mr. Morell testified that Mr. Blinken did not hint that the Biden campaign “could use some help on this” or suggest that Mr. Morell should “cook up something” that the campaign should use."
