The best-case scenario is that she’s a progressive who repeatedly
violated her own principles so that she could promote her career. In the
worst-case scenario, she’s just another corrupt, rotten, regressive prosecutor.

Kamala Harris Failed to Investigate Client of Husband’s Law Firm as California Attorney General
https://mexicanoccupation.blogspot.com/2020/10/the-bribes-suckers-senator-dianne.html
Democratic
vice-presidential nominee Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) failed as California’s
attorney general declined to investigate faulty advertising claims against one
of the nation’s leading nutritional supplement companies, which also happened
to be a client of her husband’s law firm.
As California’s chief
law enforcement officer between 2011 and 2017, Harris racked up a record as a
tough on crime prosecutor. From cracking down on school truancy to opposing marijuana legalization—with more than 1900 people being prosecuted for possession of
the drug under her tenure—Harris was California’s self-acknowledged “top cop.”
That record, however,
did not extend to clients of Venable LLP, the law firm where Harris’s husband,
Douglas Emhoff, was a high-profile partner. Harris, in particular, failed on
numerous occasions to investigate the nutritional supplement giant
Herbalife. At the time, Herbalife was a high-profile client of Venable,
paying the firm hundreds of thousands of dollars for its legal services every
year.
Kamala Harris: ‘Joe Biden Has
Been Incredibly Transparent’
with His Money
Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) claimed during
Wednesday’s vice presidential debate in Salt
Lake City, UT, that Democrat presidential
nominee Joe Biden has been “incredibly
transparent” about his personal finances.
Harris described Biden as “forthright” with his finances in
response to a question posed to her and Vice President Mike Pence about the
health of Biden and President Donald Trump given their ages – 77 and 74,
respectively.
Peter Schweizer, president of the Government
accountability Institute and author Profiles in
Corruption: Abuse of Power by America’s
Progressive Elite, has reported on Biden’s
family’s financial ties to foreign governments and
oligarchs. Weeks ago, he called for Senate
Republicans to subpoena Hunter Biden, Joe Biden’s
second son, to investigate financial dealings with
foreign interests.
Schweizer
has repeatedly outlined how the Biden family monetized the
political influence of Joe Biden in his previous capacities as a senator and
vice president.
Harris
praised the New
York Times‘s allegations that
Trunp paid $750 in federal income taxes in both 2015 and 2016 as “great
investigative journalism.” She specifically defined “in debt” as if the
audience needed an explanation of indebtedness:
We now know, because of great investigative journalism, that
Donald Trump paid $750 in taxes. When I first heard about it, I literally said,
You mean $750,000?’, and it was like, ‘No, $750.’ We now know Donald Trump owes
and is in debt for $400 million dollars, and just so everyone is clear when
when we say in debt, it means you owe money to somebody.
And it’d be
really good to know who the President of the United States — the
commander-in-chief — owes money to, because the American people have a right to
know what is influencing the president’s decisions, and is he making those
decisions on the best interest of the American people — of you — or
self-interest.
Harris
stated, “So, Susan, I’m glad you asked about transparency, because it has to be
across the board. Joe has been incredibly transparent over many, many years.
The one thing we all know about Joe, he puts it all out there. He is honest, he
is forthright, but Donald Trump, on the other hand, has been about
covering up everything.”
Joe Biden: Unfit for Office
Never
in American history has a major political party nominated two candidates for
president and vice-president who are so manifestly unfit for the elective
offices they seek.
Joe
Biden, the corrupt, unaccomplished 47-year career politician, with a reputation
of having been a proud segregationist, an unabashed
plagiarist and liar, a resolute
tale-teller, and a serial
flip-flopper, is pretending to head up a radical social-democratic ticket
for President of the United States that includes as his running mate the
ambitious, disagreeable junior senator from California: Kamala Harris.
Biden,
Obama’s vice-presidential lackey for eight years (a period of unprecedented
corruption and personal
enrichment for
both men), has always craved power and attention. But unfortunately
for Joe, his mouth, hands, and nose have consistently undermined his
presidential ambitions.
This
year, courtesy of an international pandemic, unprecedented social unrest, an
obsequious leftist media, and the customary DNC shenanigans, Biden miraculously
emerged from the basement as the last Democrat candidate standing --
figuratively speaking, of course.
Touted
as the most acceptable contender in a general election, the ever-manipulative
DNC,
with assists from Majority Whip James Clyburn, foisted the 77-year old empty
suit on the Democrat voters, despite an interminable career of incompetence and
uncontrollable pervy conduct around women and
young girls, including a credible
allegation of sexual assault.
Joe
Biden is the DNC’s so-called “empathy candidate,” and “restorer of America’s
soul.” Uncle Joe -- the perpetual advocate of blue-collar,
lunch-bucket workers, friend of the common man, and supposed champion
of every solution destined to restore calm to the country and dignity to the
White House -- is the candidate that cares about you. Not like
the brash, egotistical, illegitimate, and unrefined President Trump.
And
yet, despite a lethargic, uninspiring campaign, and a shocking dearth of mental
competence and physical vivacity on Joe’s part, Biden stands incredibly today,
at the pinnacle of his political career; anointed as the Democrat Party’s
nominee for president, despite two prior, failed attempts, including one in the
last century.
Joe’s
good fortune, however, is based on a lie; a political mythology, as it were,
deviously by the elite power brokers, that Joe was, and still is, a
moderate and is therefore, the most electable Democrat out there. It
cannot be based on the candidate’s unifying, optimistic, and patriotic vision
for the future, because there is none. There are no reasonable,
practical, and substantive ideas being proffered regarding freedom, liberty,
prosperity, and security for the American people. On the contrary,
the Harris-Biden candidacy is distinguished by a dark, overtly divisive, and
destructive agenda, masked most days by shameless untruths and unrelenting
criticism of President Trump. So much for empathy and unity.
In
his effort to bamboozle the American voter, Biden has effectively embraced the
anti-American, Marxist policies of Obama, Sanders, and Ocasio-Cortez while
still pretending to be a moderate. The treasonous fake news media
and propaganda arm of the DNC have enthusiastically aided and abetted Biden as
they shamelessly promote the centrist lie.
Sadly,
this dishonest and extremely corrosive strategy, if successful, will only serve
to hasten the destruction of the America as we know
it. Socialist-Marxist policies implemented by a radical Harris-Biden
administration will undoubtedly diminish our freedoms, our liberty, threaten
our security, and severely impact our daily pursuit of happiness and
prosperity. We would be on the fast-track to Obama’s “fundamental
transformation” of America.
It’s
not the radical, anti-American policies that make Joe Biden unfit for office,
however. Rather it is the indisputable fact that Joe is not all
there. Joe Biden is a hollow man. He is incredibly low energy, with obviously
declining faculties. Joe Biden is physically and mentally incapable of
performing the duties and responsibilities of the most difficult job in the
world. Joe Biden does not have the cognitive abilities to
string coherent sentences together without the use of notes or
teleprompter, let alone make critical decisions. Physically and mentally,
Biden is a shell of his former self.
The
prospect of a 78-year-old man of such diminished capacities in the White House
is terrifying, to say the least. Coupled with his unprincipled embrace of
hard-left policies, a Biden presidency would pose an unprecedented danger to
the country. A President Biden on the national and international
stage would be an embarrassment to America and would confer way too much power
and influence on Barack Obama and Valerie Jarrett (Obama’s brain), and the
ambitious, “harpy in waiting,” Kamala Harris.
There
can be no doubt, that a President Joe Biden would merely be a
figurehead. A dithering and doddering Biden will be allowed to
masquerade as POTUS until such time as the puppeteers find it expedient to
wheel Joe and his security blanket out the White House door, replaced by Kamala
Harris. Harris in fact, has publicly and accurately stated that the
correct designation, is in fact, the “Harris-Biden ticket.” Kamala knows the
plan, and apparently Joe is okay with his “second fiddle” status as he has
recently confirmed the
reality of a Harris-Biden ticket. The truth is that the Harris -Biden campaign is
nothing more than a cynical manipulation of public opinion, with Biden being
the empty vessel by which power is attained.

Exclusive — Donald
Trump on the Bidens: ‘It’s a Corrupt Family’
20 Aug 2020Washington, DC1,427
4:41
President Donald Trump told Breitbart News exclusively in the
Oval Office last week that his general election opponent, former Vice President
Joe Biden, and his entire family are “corrupt.”
Trump, the incumbent Republican, will face off against Democrat
Biden in November. Biden, the presumptive Democrat nominee, will formally
accept the Democrat nomination for president, thereby officially becoming the
party’s presidential nominee at the Democrat National Convention on Thursday
night.
In his Oval Office interview with Breitbart News last Monday,
the president made clear that his opponent and his whole family are “corrupt,”
as evidenced by not just Biden’s son Hunter Biden’s business dealings with the
Chinese Communist Party and Ukrainian oligarchs, but also other Biden family
members, such as Biden’s brothers, James and Frank Biden and more.
Trump started by ripping into Hunter Biden for the $1.5 billion
deal he cut with the Chinese. Hunter Biden accompanied his father, then the
sitting vice president, to China on Air Force Two. Then just weeks later, he
secured a $1.5 billion deal from the Bank of China, as Peter
Schweizer—Breitbart News senior contributor and Government Accountability
Institute president—has exposed. Hunter Biden also had a deal through Burisma Holdings, a Ukrainian natural gas company, through
which he made tens of thousands of dollars a month—even though he had never been to Ukraine before accepting the position. Joe Biden, as vice
president, pressured Ukraine to fire a prosecutor who was investigating Burisma
while his son Hunter worked for the firm.
“Hunter Biden came away with $1.5 billion, of which he gets big
fees on. It’s not a possible thing to do,” Trump told Breitbart News in the
Oval Office. “You can’t do that. It doesn’t—nobody has done that. Nobody has
done that. China doesn’t do that. But he walked away in ten minutes with
one-and-a-half-billion dollars. He gets fees on it. Ukraine, the same thing.”
But Hunter Biden’s questionable international dealings were not
limited to China and Ukraine. As Schweizer’s most recent book, Profiles in Corruption,
released earlier this year exposed, Hunter
Biden’s firms had deals that secured hundreds of millions of dollars in other
deals with the Chinese and with the Russians and Kazakhs as well.
“Other countries,” Trump said, noting next that the whole Biden
family has been in on the graft: “The same thing for the family.”
Trump is correct about that. Schweizer’s Profiles in Corruption exposed
Biden’s two brothers, Frank and James, for various questionable deals in which
they each engaged.
Despite having no experience whatsoever, Schweizer revealed this year that Frank was linked to $54 million in taxpayer loans
from the Obama administration provided to help with U.S. relations in the
Caribbean. Schweizer also revealed that Biden’s other brother, James, was employed at a firm
to which the Obama administration funneled more than $1.5 billion in contracts
over the course of Biden’s time in the nation’s second-highest office.
“It’s a corrupt family,” Trump told Breitbart News of the
Bidens. “It’s a corrupt family, okay?”
In addition to Frank, James, and Hunter Biden, Joe Biden’s
sister, Valerie Biden Owens, is exposed in Schweizer’s Profiles
in Corruption as steering millions of dollars to a consulting
firm she owned during her stints in her brother’s two previous presidential
bids as his campaign manager. What’s more, Biden’s son-in-law, Howard Krein,
who is married to Biden’s daughter Ashley, launched a firm from the Oval Office and repeatedly briefed investors
privately, as Schweizer exposed in the book.
The president’s comments came in response to Breitbart News
asking him about Biden’s attempts to frame him as weak on China, something that
is hard to argue given the president’s and his administration’s work on the
issue. Nonetheless, Biden’s team has tried to flip the script against Trump on China, something the
president laughed at during his Oval Office interview as he laid out his
successes in holding the Chinese Communist Party accountable.
“Weak on China? He’s weak period,” Trump told Breitbart News.
“Weak on China? China has never—they’ve paid us billions and billions of
dollars. They were having the worst year ever that they’ve had in 67 years.
Weak on China? Those guys were pathetic. If Biden got elected, they’d own the
United States within a very short period of time. China would own the United
States.”

Joe
Biden Helped Launch Business for Son-in-Law from the Oval Office, Repeatedly
Briefed Investors Privately
Former Vice President Joe Biden went to great lengths to boost
his son-in-law’s health care company while in the White House, briefing investors
on the firm’s merits and even arranging access to the Oval Office. The
bombshell revelations are detailed in Profiles in Corruption: Abuse of Power by America’s Progressive
Elite — a new book by Peter Schweizer, a senior contributor at
Breitbart News and the president of the Government Accountability Institute.
In June 2011, Biden arranged a private meeting for two StartUp
Health executives with then-President Barack Obama in the Oval Office. At the
time of the meeting, the company had been around for only a few weeks. It had
yet to finalize its business plan, let alone develop a website.
The meeting was all the more surprising since StartUp Health was
not proposing any new or radical ideas for health care, at least not to the
degree of warranting a meeting with the nation’s commander-in-chief.
“Their status as a health care incubator was hardly unique,”
Schweizer writes in Profiles
in Corruption. “In fact, there were thirty-one similar companies
operating in the state of California alone, and another eleven in the state of
New York.”
As Schweizer outlines, the only significant factor that set
StartUp Health apart from others in its field was that its chief medical
officer, Howard Krein, was engaged to Biden’s daughter, Ashley. Krein, a head
and neck doctor by training, seemed to have become an integral part of Biden’s
inner-circle even before he officially wed into the family in June
2012.
One day after StartUp Health’s executives met with Obama in the
Oval Office, the company got a bigger boost from the administration when it was
featured at a health care tech conference put on by the Department of Health
and Human Services (HHS). How the company managed to score HHS attention, while
still in the stages of infancy, remains unclear, but it is likely Biden played
a role.
Regardless, the back-to-back events gave StartUp Health a launch
trajectory unavailable to other companies in the health care field, let alone
other industries. Biden’s influence ensured that StartUp Health set out with
“the winds to our backs,” as one of the company’s co-founders succinctly put
it.
The former vice president’s efforts on his son-in-law’s behalf
were not just confined to the company’s launch. As Profiles in Corruption details, Biden went out
of his way to ensure StartUp Health executives were given unparalleled access
to the White House during the Obama presidency. The company’s leadership, which
mostly consisted of Krein’s family and friends, frequently met with
administration officials not only in private but also in public.
“According to 2011 White House visitors’ logs, Howard Krein
attended the China State Dinner, a White House Staff barbecue, and President
Obama’s Motown event,” Schweizer writes. “His brother, Steven, had half a dozen
other meetings with White House officials.”
Biden’s efforts on behalf of the company expansively increased
during his final year in office, both internationally and at home.
First, the vice president took Krein with him on Air Force Two
to a conference on regenerative health hosted by Pope Francis at the Vatican in
April 2016.
“Conference attendees included a who’s who of scientific
researchers in medicine from around the world,” Schweizer notes.
Then in May, Krein was tasked with introducing his father-in-law
at a major health industry data conference hosted by the Obama administration.
The opportunity provided free publicity to the company as it planned to expand
its portfolio.
In October 2016, Biden appeared alongside StartUp Health’s CEO
at the Cleveland Clinic’s Medical Innovation Summit. During his remarks, Biden
praised StartUp Health as an innovator in the health care market and claimed
companies like it would be essential to winning the battle
against cancer.
Apart from arranging access and touting the company in public,
Biden also took steps in the waning days of the Obama administration to boost
investment in StartUp Health. In January 2017, Biden made one of his final
appearances as vice president at a festival hosted by the company in San
Francisco, California. At the event, Biden lauded StartUp Health’s success to
250 attendees, including members and prospective donors.
Ironically, at the same time he was working to promote his
son-in-law’s business, Biden was also claiming his children had chosen careers
unlikely to make them rich.
“I wish my kids would become wealthy,” Biden told the International
Association of Fire Fighters in July 2012 while lambasting the economic
policies of then-Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney.

Biden Crime Clan: Son-in-Law Advising on Coronavirus, Investing in Coronavirus Response
The Bidens are like the Clintons except with even less class.
At the same time that Joe Biden’s son-in-law, Howard Krein, has been advising Biden’s campaign on its coronavirus response, Krein’s venture capital business has been running a special initiative to invest in health care startups that offer solutions to the pandemic.
In March, as Covid-19 began spreading in the United States, the investment firm, StartUp Health, unveiled a new coronavirus initiative soliciting pitches from entrepreneurs with products that addressed the outbreak.
The next month, reports in Bloomberg and the New York Times listed Krein among those participating in daily calls to brief Biden on health policy during the pandemic, while StartUp Health announced its intention to invest $1 million across 10 startups with coronavirus applications within 30 days.
Lots of money to be made here. If Biden wins, we're talking astronomical figures.
Obama also put Biden "in charge" of curing cancer. And while that's obvious nonsense, the health care sector is swimming in cash. What could an enterprising puppet and his handlers do with that until the 25th amendment kicks in?
Peter Schweitzer had previously written about Krein and StartUp Health.
StartUp Health was barely up and running when, in June 2011, two of the company’s executives were ushered into the Oval Office of the White House. They met with President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden.
The following day, the new company would be featured at a large health care tech conference being run by the US Department of Health and Human Services, and StartUp Health executives became regular visitors to the White House, attending events in 2011, 2014 and 2015.
How did StartUp Health gain access to the highest levels of power in Washington? There was nothing particularly unique about the company, but for this:
The chief medical officer of StartUp Health, Howard Krein, is married to Joe Biden’s youngest daughter, Ashley.
“I happened to be talking to my father-in-law that day and I mentioned Steve and Unity were down there [in Washington, DC],” recalled Howard Krein. “He knew about StartUp Health and was a big fan of it. He asked for Steve’s number and said, ‘I have to get them up here to talk with Barack.’ The Secret Service came and got Steve and Unity and brought them to the Oval Office.”
It's like they're not even trying to hide it.
Ashley Biden was at the center of a scandal involving a video of her allegedly snorting cocaine.
