Biden was warned by diplomat about Hunter's doings, and brushed
him off
So much for the claim from Joe Biden that his foreign-cash-magnet son Hunter "did nothing wrong."
Turns out the 'wrong' was all over the place as a U.S. career diplomat, Deputy Secretary of State George Kent, tried hard to raise red flags with Biden himself about Hunter's little Ukrainian cash cow and instead of get taken seriously, got told by Biden's men to beat it.
Here's the Washington Post:
A career State Department official overseeing Ukraine policy told congressional investigators this week that he had raised concerns in early 2015 about then-Vice President Joe Biden’s son serving on the board of a Ukrainian energy company but was turned away by a Biden staffer, according to three people familiar with the testimony.
George Kent, a deputy assistant secretary of state, testified Tuesday that he worried that Hunter Biden’s position at the firm Burisma Holdings would complicate efforts by U.S. diplomats to convey to Ukrainian officials the importance of avoiding conflicts of interest, said the people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of confidentiality rules surrounding the deposition.Kent said he had concerns that Ukrainian officials would view Hunter Biden as a conduit for currying influence with his father, said the people. But when Kent raised the issue with Biden’s office, he was told the then-vice president didn’t have the “bandwidth” to deal with the issue involving his son as his other son, Beau, was battling cancer, said the people familiar with his testimony.
Biden, remember, was there in Ukraine as Mister Clean Government, the great corruption fighter. The specter of his low-achieving, kicked-out-of-the-Navy-for-cocaine junior getting on a board of one of the Ukrainian companies most soaked in the corruption inquiries that were going on at the time, is gamy indeed, gamy enough for even a career diplomat to notice. The diplomat, of course, had to be very careful throughout his career to follow rules, stay out of politics, and avoid conflicts of interest.
Biden reportedly was drawing in $50,000 a month as a board member from Ukrainian oligarchs and has admitted since that he probably wouldn't be there "if my name wasn't Biden." Those weren't the only payments he was taking. Now it emerges that there weren't any records from Burisma, the Ukrainian company, for the payouts, something that could come in handy at tax time among other possibilities.
The Post seems to claim that there was never any proof that Hunter did anything wrong in taking all those payouts, as they could find no connection to him taking money and Joe Biden going easy on them.
But it was wrong, and here's why: The setup was in place. Maybe nothing happened, because nothing needed to happen for Burisma. But what if Burisma did need for something to happen. It would be a matter of events that it didn't happen, not a matter of good intentions.
When you've got even career diplomats raising red flags about Hunter Biden's payouts, and Joe Biden brushing the man off (instead of handing it over to his bloated staff), you know this thing stunk from the start. So much for 'did nothing wrong.'
What it would take for Hunter Biden's story to check out
Try to imagine that you are the son of a prominent politician who will ultimately rise to the second highest executive office in the land, and your very first job out of law school, when ol' Dad's a mere United States senator, is with a major bank holding company that just happens to be a major contributor to your father's political campaigns. Wonder of wonders, within two years of being a new hire, you are the executive vice president of said company. But you don't tell Daddy about that astonishing advancement because you and Dad, operating out of a keen sense of political and familial decorum, simply don't ever discuss your phenomenal career successes.
Then you become a Washington lobbyist, and you and your father maintain your separation and propriety with an agreement in which ol' Pops won't ask you about your lobbying clients and you won't tell him about them. One has to wonder how those seeking influence and advantage in Washington by paying your lobbying firm all those big bucks feel about how all that high-minded family rectitude serves their purposes. As for your newly acquired hedge fund, Daddy already knows about all those investors, but you're not about to ever discuss them with him.
At age 43, when many naval officers are approaching retirement, you are selected to be directly commissioned as a very junior officer in the Naval Reserve, an astounding accomplishment requiring double waivers for your being two tokes over the line: your advanced age, as well as previous drug and alcohol usage — both waivers, no doubt, obtained entirely by your own ingenuity and persistence, inasmuch as you and dear ol' Dad still are maintaining that wall of professional and familial separation, meaning he would never, ever have used his position to pressure the Pentagon to offer an unheard of commission to an unqualified candidate.
Of course, it's a good move for the service: the Naval Reserve pooh-bahs could be expected to eagerly issue such waivers, considering all the benefits you can bring to their service in the decades before you retire in your sixties to collect that nice monthly pension. Ah, but then your nautical ambitions go overboard a single month later, when you can't clear a drug scan, and even dear ol' Daddy can't fade that degree of Pentagon heat — not that he'd try, of course.
But your fickle fortune cookie favors you, and on a fortuitous flight to China with Pops on Air Taxpayer, you sit on opposite sides and ends of the cabin, and you speak not a word of business to each other for fourteen hours so as to maintain your principled propriety. While in China, you discuss nothing but family matters, and Dad introduces you to no one. Nor, on the return flight, do you address matters of commerce due to similar seating arrangements as before. Can you just imagine your old man's surprise when he finally learns from the financial news that the Chinese have awarded your hedge fund an investment deal worth more than $1.6 billion? You can just picture Pop's pride in his boy, except, of course, he can't discuss it with you, because it just wouldn't be proper.
Then, a year later, through your unique personal qualifications, you manage to land a sweet seat on the board of a Ukrainian natural gas company to the tune of $50K to $100K per month, in spite of being behind the curve on the country and knowing nada about natural gas except for Daddy's dazed emissions. Here you just got the boot for taking a toot, and now you are collecting some serious coin. A proud son must be champing at the bit to show Poppa what a self-made success you are, but nope, just wouldn't be proper, now, would it? So you stifle your pride and don't tell the old man a thing about this latest extraordinary turn in your fortunes, because of that conscientious clan claim to indisputable integrity — which makes you wonder how Dad manages to find out about your position in time to call those clowns in Kiev and convince them to call off their corruption investigation, saving your job and your fairly earned compensation.
Try to imagine how your dear ol' daddy ever knows to do that when he doesn't even know you're on the board that's being investigated. It sure wasn't you who told him about it, because we all know that just wouldn't be proper, now would it?
They Destroyed Our Country
“They knew Obama was an unqualified crook; yet they
promoted him. They knew Obama was a train wreck waiting to happen; yet they

Corruption
blinders of the media and other Democrats
Most journalists
and Democrats didn’t express any concerns when:
- VP Biden
threatened (promised) Ukraine that he would cut off a billion dollars in
aid to them if they didn't fire the prosecutor investigating a company his
son was involved with.
- Hunter
Biden got paid $50,000 a month as a board member of a corrupt Ukrainian
gas company when he had no expertise on the product of the company.
- Obama
promised the very dangerous Russia and Putin that he would be flexible if
he was reelected (somehow no one at FBI or elsewhere was ever concerned
that Russia may have tried to influence the 2012 election to elect the
flexible president.)
- Hillary,
Obama and many others violated the nation's security laws by using her
non-government computer.
- Obama
gave kickbacks to union supporters when he violated the nation's
bankruptcy law with the bailout of GM.
- Obama
used taxpayer dollars to reward political supporters like at Solyndra.
- Hillary,
through her family and foundation, got huge amounts of speech money and
donations from foreign countries. Russia, for example, got Uranium for
their generosity. (If there is any doubt about whether they were
kickbacks, that should have disappeared when the donations dried up and
speech fees dropped or dried up when she no longer could return favors)
- Obama
shipped over $1 billion in taxpayer money in unmarked bills, to Iran
tyrants, who still pledge death to America, to get a deal.
- Obama
dictatorially stopped a years’ long investigation into a billion dollar a year
drug running ring by terrorists to appease Iranian tyrants because he was
more concerned about his legacy than the safety, health and lives of the
American people.
- Hillary
and the DNC paying over $10 billion to buy a fake dossier from a foreign
national to destroy Trump. It appears they didn't think they could beat
him based on the truth or their policy proposals.
- Obama
and his administration, including the FBI, Justice Department, the
intelligence agencies and the State Department, using the fake dossier as
a source for FISA warrants and to infiltrate the Trump campaign with
informants. (they obviously didn't believe their record or policies would
win the votes). Instead of the media and other Democrats caring about this
pure corruption they have participated in perpetuating the lies about
Russian collusion for over three years.
- The
Obama Administration, at the Justice Department, EPA and CFPB using
taxpayer money for political purposes and political supporters by creating
slush funds from money confiscated from businesses that they pretended
would go to victims.
If the media and Democrats want to investigate anything, how
about a possible corrupt payback from Netflix to Obama? Obama gave the very
wealthy Netlfix, Google and others huge financial benefits with net neutrality
and Netflix gave the Obama's a huge contract even though they had no video
production expertise or experience. It is similar to paying Biden's son huge
amounts of money with no expertise.
But now when President Trump may have said something to a
foreign leader about investigating corruption by Biden's son, that is supposed
to be an impeachable offense. Shouldn't a President want political corruption
by politicians to be investigated? Shouldn't the media and other Democrats be
more concerned about the corruption itself than the phone call?
From this story, it appears that the media and other
Democrats believe that every phone call that Trump makes to a foreign leader
should become public knowledge if any bureaucrat makes a whistle blower report
when they disagree with something the president does. That would certainly be
cumbersome, and foreign leaders would no longer want to have discussions if
every discussion could be made public.
Elizabeth Warren says she wants to get rid of corruption but
not once have I heard her complain about the massive corruption during the
Obama years or at her precious CFPB, so she really doesn't care.
Isn't it odd that no bureaucrats seemed to care about the
corruption of Obama/Biden? It shows why we need to drain the swamp.

both before and after the Wall Street crash of 2008.
Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America and every other major US

mortgage securities on false pretenses, the rigging of international interest
rates and global foreign exchange markets, the laundering of Mexican drug

Democrats as a protection
racket? Ed Buck makes it a trifecta
The New York Times has been trying to
dismiss the arrest of Ed Buck, a Democratic fatcat who had a thing
for injecting young black men with drugs before paying them for sex, as a
"small-time Democratic donor," but the facts on the ground suggest he
was a rather big one. And maybe that's a function of the paper's desire to
protect its masters, the Democrats. They aren't known as Democratic operatives with
bylines for nothing.
While Buck once identified himself as a conservative Republican,
according to the Los Angeles Times, he became a national figure when he
spearheaded the effort to impeach Arizona’s Republican Gov. Evan Mecham in the
1980s. He later made large donations to Democrats, including more than $500,000
since 2007, according to court documents filed by Moore's mother in a wrongful
death suit pertaining to her son.
At the
federal level, those include contributions to prominent Washington lawmakers as
well as 2016 Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. At the local
level, Buck has donated more than $51,000 to Los Angeles city and county
officials,
candidates, and affiliated parties dating to 2008.
In 2012, Buck
contributed $100 to the campaign for Jackie Lacey for Los Angeles County District Attorney, and four years later, gave $1,400
to Eric
Garcetti for
Mayor of Los Angeles. Both Lacey and Garcetti still hold their titles.
The highest
contribution was $13,000, according to the court papers, to former West
Hollywood Mayor John Duran when he ran for county supervisor in 2014.
That doesn't sound too small-time to me.
And in fact, his ideological
switcheroo sounds as though he found the Democrats a more suitable protection
racket for his perversions than the Republicans. Who needs political beliefs
when the real belief is perversion and that's what he needs protected?
It's actually part of the pattern
with these scandals. Pervert with big vices donates cash to Democrats to ensure
his protection from the cops. Harvey Weinstein knew it, that was what his
Planned Parenthood and other woke cause donations bought for him - a capacity
to prey on young actresses trying to win roles. Jeffrey Epstein knew it too, donating
to leftist Bill Clinton causes in order to buy enough influence to enable him
to prey on underage girls with impunity, spiriting them to his pervert island
for himself along with his highly connected Democrat buddies. Both had
added payoffs in that Weinstein then had the power to threaten actresses
and reporters who threatened to tell on him, while Epstein had blackmail
material on very powerful people which kept them on his string.
Now we have the sorry case of Ed Buck, a
creep who enjoyed paying for sex with young black men while poisoning them
with drugs, and then relying on his political donations to ensure the cops
looked the other way. Note that quite a few of his donations were to Los
Angeles local officials, all of them Democrats. Assuming this tweet's images
are not manipulated, look at the range of Buck's Democrats:
https://abc7.com/democratic-donor-ed-buck-arrested-on-drug-charges/5547905/ … Democratic donor Ed Buck
arrested on drug charges after new overdose at his West Hollywood home! @realDonaldTrump @POTUS @SenSchumer @tedlieu @HillaryClinton @CBSThisMorning @GayleKing I see 3 dead people
killed by Ed Buck ... WTF? @FBI @LAPDWestLA
Democratic donor Ed
Buck arrested on drug charges after new overdose at his West Hollywood home
A THIRD death in this guy's house. WTF!? Ed
Buck donated money to Chuck Schumer, Ted Lieu, & Hillary Clinton... was
given a free pass / no repercussions after the first two black guys died (18
months apart) from drug fueled speed & poppers homosexual parties.. @CBSNews
Combine it with media malfeasance - the
mainstream media tried to turn down Ronan Farrow's report on Weinstein, it
tried to pin the Epstein scandal on President Trump, and now it's trying to
persuade us that Buck was just small fry, and the protection racket
seems complete.
With so many of these perverts turning up
in the Democrat donor base as well as organizations such as Planned Parenthood,
one wonders if these are the only ones out there. Is the Democratic Party held
together in no small part by freaks using politics as their 'vaccination'
from scrutiny? Are their perversions and the need to protect them at the root
of why these groups are so powerful and Democrats are so extreme and inflexible
on issues such as abortion? Might that be why they're so out of step with even
the Democratic voting public? And why are the Democrats the more hospitable party
for such a sorry scenario? Why are they the party of perverts? It actually isn't just these three, it's quite a few of
them as I noted here. A lot of such characters have turned up in a very, very
short time and the pattern is exactly the same for each. How many more are
there? What does Ted Lieu, Adam Schiff, Hillary Clinton and other Democrats
who've benefited from Buck's bucks have to say about this? And why aren't
all of the Democrats confronting this?
