Throughout, Joe claims he knew nothing of any family pay-to-play hustles in Oman, Luxembourg, Romania, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Russia, Guatemala, and China. The ignorance defense is an instant replay of Clinton family tactics; deny, deny, deny, and when denials are no longer plausible, depend on Deep State Democrat Party Beltway hacks to cover or come to the rescue.
Three Times the Biden Family Used Joe to Profit in Small American Countries
The misadventures of former Vice President Joe Biden’s son Hunter with Chinese Communist money men and Ukrainian oligarchs are far from the only time the Biden family tried to cash in on Joe’s political career.
Joe Biden’s younger brother Frank leveraged the Biden name for lucrative deals in Costa Rica and Jamaica, while Hunter used his father’s name to push through a massive deal in Colombia involving a vast Chinese energy corporation.
Costa Rica
In August 2009, a partnership to “reform real estate in Latin America” was announced between Costa Rican agencies and Cygnus International, Frank Biden’s company. The “sustainable” and “socially sensitive” projects for this partnership included the Guanacaste Solar Park, developed in 2014 with another business owned by Frank Biden, and a luxury country club with a top-shelf golf course. The proposal was valued at over $1 billion.
Costa Rican President Luis Guillermo Solís wrote a letter to Frank Biden thanking him for getting involved with the country club project, which included everything from renewable energy deals to waste disposal and a hospital. Solís’s letter said the development would include over 1,000 homes.
The waste-to-energy element is interesting because Solís’s letter referred to a company called Westinghouse-Plasma that Biden seemed reluctant to name, although he frequently alluded to having a “strong waste-to-energy partner.” Joe Biden occasionally praised the company during his vice presidency, literally pitching its services to the Czech Republic in 2009.
Westinghouse-Plasma went through a few ownership changes over the years, but within a year of the thank-you letter President Solís wrote to Frank Biden, the company was purchased in a surprise acquisition by a Delaware-based corporation named Harvest International that is wholly owned by a Chinese company, Sunshine Kaidi New Energy Corp.
A Costa Rican newspaper called El Observador reported that in February 2020, after years of promoting the Guanacaste megaproject, Frank Biden denied through his law firm that he or Joe Biden had ever been involved with it. The project was never completed, and investors reportedly said they never got their money back.

— Breitbart News (@BreitbartNews) October 29, 2020
“There is no project in Costa Rica. Never was,” Biden claimed in comments to El Observador – eight years after he said he couldn’t wait to be part of the Guanacaste “community” and boasted that his country club would not have any walls because “most of the amenities are public and it’s the Guanacaste people who have permitted us to be here.”
Frank Biden’s partner in the Guanacaste project, Craig Williamson – named in the 2009 announcement of Biden’s involvement, hailed by Biden as a “business partner and friend” who would help him prove that “protecting the breathtaking beauty that is Costa Rica is a money maker” – was sued for fraud in Costa Rica and currently has an outstanding arrest warrant.
El Observador in February quoted unhappy investors who said they put money into the country club project largely because of the Biden name. Former Costa Rican President Solís said in the same article that he “didn’t ask for resumes” when he met with Biden and his partners.
Frank Biden and Craig Williamson also worked together in Belize, where their real estate partnership ERA Real Estate Costa Rica had interests. In 2007, Biden was named director of development and marketing for a humanitarian nonprofit organization called Hand in Hand Ministries that had significant operations in Belize. The health ministry of Belize, which received a $1.9 million grant in 2011 from a U.S. government program called the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), made Hand in Hand Ministries their primary AIDS relief organization.
Jamaica
As vice president in 2014, Joe Biden announced the Caribbean Energy Security Initiative (CESI), a program intended to facilitate investment in wind and solar energy projects with U.S. taxpayer subsidies. Biden hosted a major summit for CESI the following year.
Among the projects funded by CESI was a 20-megawatt solar power plant in Jamaica. A $50 million deal to develop the plant was signed in February 2016 by Sun Fund Americas, which is based in Guanacaste, Costa Rica, and is presided over by Frank Biden. The plant officially opened in 2017.
“We have strong partners in both PV Solar and Waste to Energy, and our resort development partner has crafted the best possible development model for green resort and residential communities,” Biden said when announcing the Jamaica deal, vaguely referring once again to a strong waste-to-energy partner.
“From our base in Costa Rica, we are working with several other countries to bring this combined development array in the near term. These countries will benefit from our solutions providing clean energy, and eliminating solid waste, medical waste and water treatment sludge with zero toxic byproduct while creating thousands of jobs locally,” Biden said.
Colombia
Hunter Biden and Joe Biden’s other brother James used the former vice president’s name in 2017 while pushing a deal in Colombia. The investment outline prepared by the Bidens and their partners prominently featured a photo of Joe Biden shaking hands with then-Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos and touting the “strong” relationship between them.
The investor Hunter and James Biden was seeking to court for oil investments in Colombia was none other than CEFC China Energy, the shadowy corporation linked to the Chinese Communist government and People’s Liberation Army that figures heavily in the emails recovered from Hunter Biden’s laptop. CEFC abruptly went bankrupt in 2018 after its founder Ye Jianming was linked to corruption in Africa and disappeared into the Chinese prison system. The Biden proposal touted Colombia as CEFC’s “gateway to Latin America.”

THE PARASITE LAWYER CLASS
THE CASE
AGAINST LAWYER HUNTER BIDEN
https://mexicanoccupation.blogspot.com/2020/10/the-lawless-lawyer-class-case-against.html
Together James and Hunter Biden had built a business around Joe
Biden. But what happened in Pennsylvania, in St. Louis, and Arkansas ended with
more than greed.
Americans don’t want the corrupt in
power. It’s that simple. If Hillary Clinton’s foundation peddled access to her
when she was secretary of state; this is much worse. How could a
compromised Biden ever stand up to countries like China and Russia, which have
already paid his family millions?
THE
SHADY POLITICS OF HILLARY CLINTON and her PAY-TO-PLAY MAFIA
The left cared
nothing about that bit of collusion.
Hillary and her
campaign aides have long been involved with Russia for reasons of personal
gain. Clinton herself got $145
million in donations to the Clinton Foundation for allowing Russia to
take over twenty percent of all uranium
production in the U.S. Her campaign chairman, John Podesta, is reaping the
financial benefits of being on the board of a Russian company, Joule, which he did
not disclose. PATRICIA McCARTHY
Had Hillary been elected, the Clinton Foundation would be raking in even more millions than it did before. She would be happily selling access, favors and our remaining freedoms out from under us. PATRICIA McCARTHY...THAT'S WHY HILLS WANTS A JOB IN THE BIDE-KAMALA HARRIS BANKSTER REGIME!
The Bidens: A Delaware mafia
Delaware is not famous for much of anything except Dupont/Dow, on-shore tax havens, and a lucrative toll gate on the I-95 Interstate.
Delaware's minor and opaque reputation may change as the Biden family corruption saga unfolds.
If you have any questions about the standing of the Biden family in Delaware, all you need to know is that the one interstate rest stop on the Delaware stretch of the thruway is named after Joe Biden. Delaware is the second smallest state in the union, yet it has three toll roads exploiting north/south traffic through the busy east coast corridor.
The biggest employers in the state are government, education, banking, and chemicals/pharmaceuticals.
"More than half of all U.S. publicly traded companies, and 63% of the Fortune 500, are incorporated in Delaware. The state's attractiveness as a corporate haven is largely because of its business-friendly corporation law. Franchise taxes on Delaware corporations supply about a fifth of the state's revenue. Delaware ranks as the world's most opaque jurisdiction on the Tax Justice Network's 2009 Financial Secrecy Index[.] ... [T]here are more than a million registered corporations, meaning there are more corporations than people."
Joe Biden has represented Delaware for nearly 50 years in the U.S. Congress, but you would never know that by listening to a campaign speech. At the drop of a hat, Joe trots out his birth in Scranton, Pennsylvania, a place his family left when Joe was 10.
Delaware has three Electoral College votes. Pennsylvania has 20.
From the start, Biden's career was cratered by personal misfortune; a wife and child died in an auto accident, and an eldest son died of cancer. All the while, Biden's wayward second son, Hunter Biden, dragged the family name through the muck for decades. The tragedy of Biden's life is real, but then again, so are the pity parties.
A recent 60 Minutes election-year side-by-side comparison of Biden and Trump is an example. A stuttering narrator was recruited by PBS to narrate the saga of Biden's childhood trauma as a stutterer. You are led to believe that stuttering might be the explanation behind Joe's history of gaffes, lies about schools/class rank, and other character flaws like plagiarism.
Like the Scranton yarns, Joe is not above retailing or using childhood stuttering and a sad family history to excuse missteps and bad judgment. Alas, we often hear about the trials and saints in Joe's life, yet we seldom hear about the demons and grifters.
Second son Hunter is a junkie cum drunk, a seven-time loser in rehab who bedded his brother Beau's wife before the man's body was cold. Hunter was thrown out of the U.S. Navy Reserve for cocaine use, and he had to be forced to take a DNA test to acknowledge a child born of a relationship with a Washington, D.C. stripper who moved back to Arkansas.
Nevertheless, the drug-addled Lothario was a frequent flyer on Air Force Two, the golden chariot that led to recent Biden family riches.
Hunter was a principal in pay-to-play on a global scale. Recent electronic and documented evidence confirms years of scuttlebutt that suggested that Hunter Biden, and Uncle Jim, were trading and profiting on the name and office of the "big guy."
Throughout, Joe claims he knew nothing of any family pay-to-play hustles in Oman, Luxembourg, Romania, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Russia, Guatemala, and China. The ignorance defense is an instant replay of Clinton family tactics; deny, deny, deny, and when denials are no longer plausible, depend on Deep State Democrat Party Beltway hacks to cover or come to the rescue.
Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) obliged on cue the other day, calling the most recent corruption charges against the Bidens "Russian disinformation."
Adding insult to our intelligence, Joe Biden, like a cathouse piano player, claims he will bring "honor and integrity" back to the Oval Office. Say what you will about pay-to-play on the left these days; the American Democrat party may have cornered the global market on chutzpah.
Withal, the Biden exposé is, by any metric, a day late and a billion dollars short — at best a pyrrhic victory for critics. The Justice Department and the FBI have had the goods on Biden for some time, yet official Washington is still mute and inert.
Inertia at justice is a symptom of a much larger problem: institutionalized federal double standards.
A Republican might be indicted by an ambiguous phone call while Democrats, like the Clintons and Bidens, get a pass on obvious felonies. Rest assured that nine of ten apparatchiks entrenched inside the Beltway are Democrat voters. Left-wing fixtures in the Beltway swamp — at the Intelligence Community, Department of Defense, Justice department, and FBI — may be systemic and permanent at this point.
Alas, there may be some satisfaction to be had from truth if not justice.
We now know, through electronic and testimonial evidence, that Biden and family have been trading on public office for years. More important is the realization that the attempted coup and impeachment of Donald Trump was an elaborate and persistent scheme to distract from Obama/Biden era regime change chicanery and corruption in eastern Europe.
Winning in 2020 and beating an attempted coup, however, are not Donald Trump's serious sins. Trump's mortal offense was his refusal to become a useful idiot like James Clapper or Barack Obama.
Consequently, tactics and operations usually reserved for black operations abroad were imported by deep state Democrats (James Comey and John Brennan) for domestic use in 2016 and continue to this day.
American print and broadcast media, erstwhile guardians of free speech, press, and truth, were also lost or compromised in the Obama years.
Press and broadcast bias is now compounded by what Caroline Glick calls "The New Commissars," those universally leftist dot.com mandarins who flourish, profit, and spin in an unregulated internet cesspool.
Big Brother is now a very wealthy and influential cabal of left coast Twitter, Facebook, and Google Democrats.
The real tragedy of Donald Trump's first term is that so many Americans still seem to believe that barkers and hustlers like Joe Biden are actually an improvement over grifters like Bill and Hillary Clinton.
Suicidal stupidity on the American left now seems to be generational — and systemic.

All of this is, if we can be permitted to use

servant of the interests of the rich and powerful at the expense of the working
class. The Wall Street

breathed a “sigh of relief” at Biden’s pick of Harris. Industry
publication American Banker noted
that her steadiest stream of campaign funding has come from financial industry
professionals and their most trusted law firms.

investigate nutrition companies on the grounds of false advertising and
mislabeling.

2016, the FTC won a $200 million settlement against Herbalife. But Harris
never even investigated the company.
It is worth noting that

firm, Venable LLP. GNC, Herbalife, AdvoCare International, Vitamin Shoppe, and
others were represented by Venable.

Kamala Harris Gave 1.1%
of Income to Charity in 2019

Sen.
Kamala Harris (D-CA) and her husband, attorney Douglas Emhoff, gave 1.1% of
their income to charity in 2019, tax records show.
Harris reported giving $35,390 to
charity, while she and her husband earned $3,095,950 in taxable income.
Though earning far more than Joe Biden, who heads the Democratic
ticket, Harris and Emhoff gave slightly less to charity as a percentage of
their income than the former vice president and his wife, Dr. Jill Biden, did.
They gave 1.5% in 2019.
Harris and Emhoff gave to several different charities, including
several universities and a foundation in memory of
Matthew Silverman, which focuses on suicide prevention.
The Biden/Harris campaign released several tax records ahead of
the first presidential debate to show a contrast with President Donald Trump, who
has not released his tax returns, but whose taxes have been the subject of
recent reporting by the New York Times.
The Times claimed
that Trump paid no taxes or very little federal tax in recent years, due to
business losses though it noted that he had in fact paid millions to the U.S.
Treasury and rolled over the payment to future taxable years.
Vice President Mike Pence has not released any tax returns since
taking office in 2017, though he has filed them. In 2015, he and his wife,
Karen Pence, gave about
8% of their income to charity.

Kamala Harris Failed to Investigate Client of
Husband’s Law Firm as California Attorney General
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.
One such instance occurred in 2015 when prosecutors from the San
Diego-branch of Harris’s attorney general’s office sent her a “lengthy
memorandum” expressing the need for an investigation to be opened into
Herbalife for fraudulent marketing practices, according to Yahoo News. Even before the memorandum was sent,
Herbalife had a long and complicated history in California, at one point even
generating nearly one thousand complaints about its marketing practices.
It is unclear if Harris ever saw the memorandum in question as
no investigation was ever opened by her office. More notably, shortly after the
memorandum was sent by the San Diego prosecutors, Harris appeared at a
$1,000-dollar-a-had fundraiser in Washington, D.C. hosted by the Podest Group,
which then represented Herbalife as a lobbying client. Later that same year,
Emhoff would be promoted to managing director of Venable’s West Coast
operations.
This was not the only time that Harris declined to take action
against Herbalife. In April 2015, Harris refused to
join 14 other state attorneys general in asking Congress to open an
investigation into the herbal supplements industry for not appropriately
disclosing ingredients in their products. At the time, Herbalife was explicitly
mentioned by the attorneys general as one of the companies that warranted
further scrutiny.
The revelations are detailed more fully in Profiles in Corruption: Abuse of Power by
America’s Progressive Elite—a book released
earlier this year by Peter Schweizer, a senior contributor at Breitbart News
and president of the Government Accountability Institute.
Harris and her husband’s ties to Herbalife come back into view
as the California lawmaker has catapulted onto the national scene after
being chosen as Joe
Biden’s running mate.
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.
JESSER HOROWITZ
Unethical conduct plagues legal career of Kamala Harris
On Jan. 2019, U.S. Senator Kamala Harris declared
her candidacy for President of the United States of America to great fanfare.
She
earned quick praise and frequent comparison to former President Barack Obama. A
recent Democratic Party straw poll by the Daily Kos ranked her in the top tier
of Presidential candidates, with 27 percent of respondents voicing their
support for her candidacy. So far, she has pitched herself to the American people
as a strong progressive with a particular passion for criminal justice reform.
Harris
has a reasonable chance at winning the Democratic Party nomination. She’s
charismatic, smart and very likely to bridge the growing divide within the
party between the progressive left and the centrists. If she wins the
nomination, she might even defeat Donald Trump in the general election. I
understand why some voters in the party have decided to rally around her: She’s
a promising alternative for Democrats who want someone progressive like Bernie
Sanders but better than he is at speaking to identity politics.
However,
I would like to encourage my fellow Democrats to approach Senator Harris with a
healthy dose of skepticism. As a prosecutor and California State Attorney General, Harris has
engaged in blatantly unethical behavior for her profession and embraced
positions that actively hurt her constituents. While this does not
necessarily have to be a red line for everyone—and it certainly will not
prevent me from voting for her should she win the Democratic nomination—our
party should hold Harris’ feet to the fire here. Even more concerning than her
past positions is that she refuses to own up to them, portraying herself as a
long-time, progressive criminal justice reform activist.
I
want to clarify that I have no inherent issues with a prosecutor being elected
to the presidency. We need prosecutors; we need people who serve the public
good rather than represent the interests of paying clients. However, if
your job requires you to make decisions that could potentially ruin people’s
lives, the ethical standards should be higher, not lower. If you, like Kamala
Harris, decide you want to run for President of the United States, it becomes
imperative that the public thoroughly and mercilessly scrutinizes every facet
of your political career.
In
2015, law enforcement caught Robert Murray, a prosecutor in Kern County,
committing one of the most egregious offenses a prosecutor could perpetrate.
Specifically, he falsified a confession transcript that connected the defendant
with a far worse crime than that with what he had actually been charged. When
the defense demanded a copy of the original tape recording, Murray admitted to
his crime but said that it was merely a harmless joke. The judge disagreed. He
stated that the court refuses to tolerate such outrageous conduct and dismissed
the indictment on the grounds of prosecutorial misconduct (Observer,
“California Prosecutor Falsified Transcript of Confession,” 03.04.2015).
How
does this incident involve Senator Harris? At the time, she was the Attorney
General of California. In that capacity, she appealed the indictment. According
to Sidney Powell of The Observer, this was the third time she had appealed a
prosecutorial misconduct dismissal in less than three months. As of March 2015,
Murray was still allowed to work as a prosecutor (Observer, “California
Prosecutor Falsified Transcript of Confession,” 03.04.2015).
As Attorney General, Harris has a history of fighting to keep
men she knew were innocent in prison and of hiding cases of significant illegal
activity conducted by law enforcement. In 1999, Daniel Larsen was sentenced to 27 years to life in
prison for possession of a concealed weapon. There had been nine witnesses who
could testify that Larsen was not guilty, but the court called none of them at
the trial because of his incompetent and now disbarred attorney. With the help
of the Innocence Project, he was able to prove his innocence, and the court
overturned his conviction in 2009.
How
does this involve Senator Harris? She challenged his release not because she
believed he was guilty—she did not dispute his innocence—but because he hadn’t
presented proof of his innocence quickly enough. And so, she fought to keep a
man she definitely knew was innocent behind bars for life (NBCLosAngeles,
“After 13 Years in Prison, Man Found Innocent of Crime Freed,” 3.20.2013).
In
another incident, law enforcement discovered that Deborah Madden had purposely
sabotaged the drug results of multiple cases as a technician at a San Francisco
crime lab. But even though the highest levels of
the district attorney’s office knew about Madden’s unreliability as a drug
expert, Kamala Harris and her office hid this information from defense
attorneys. Superior Court Judge Anne-Christine Massullo ultimately ruled that
Harris’ office had violated defendants’ rights through this act of
prosecutorial misconduct, calling into question the convictions of nearly 40
defendants (SFGate, “Judge rips Harris’ office for hiding problems,”
05.21.2010).
However,
perhaps Harris’ most egregious example of immoral conduct happened in 2014. A
federal judge ordered that all non-violent second-strike offenders be eligible
for parole in California in an action against constitutional prison crowding.
Kamala Harris, then the Attorney General of California, disagreed with the
decision. She argued in court that by releasing
these inmates early, prisons would lose “an important labor pool” (Los Angeles
Times, “Federal judges order California to expand prison releases,”
11.14.2014). Despite pitching herself as a lifelong champion for
criminal justice reform, Harris had advocated that the need to keep nonviolent
offenders as slaves outweighs their constitutional rights. How would the
Democratic Party call itself progressive if members threw their support behind
someone with such an atrocious record on civil rights issues?
Even
worse, Harris has yet to apologize for her actions and in fact has refused to
even acknowledge them (Reason.com, “Kamala Harris Hopes You’ll Forget Her
Record as a Drug Warrior and Draconian Prosecutor,” 01.31.2019). At a town
hall, she responded to a question calling her out on her past actions by
answering “I’ve been consistent my whole career,” and then explained how the
record supports her claim that she has been progressive on prison reform (CNN
Twitter, “I’ve been consistent my whole career,” 01.28.2019).
I
won’t delve into her argument because, in my view, it’s irrelevant. When you
actively cover up police misconduct, try to keep a man who you know is innocent
in prison and refuse to release nonviolent offenders because you need their
involuntary labor, you don’t get to reframe your narrative.
Kamala
Harris is not owed an audience. She is not entitled to one simply because she
wants to be president. We should not give her the benefit of the doubt, because
she refuses to even acknowledge her wrongdoings. We don’t have the right to
forgive her; that right belongs to all the people she’s wronged over the course
of her long career.
For
that reason, I ask you not to vote for Kamala Harris in the primary, no matter
how attractive a candidate she is or how well she explains away her
inconsistent career. It’s possible that her past really won’t have much of an
impact on how she’ll be as president, but why should we wait and see? 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.

25
Questions Kamala Harris Should Be Asked in the Debate
Wednesday’s vice presidential debate provides an opportunity for
the American public to get answers from Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA).
The Democratic vice presidential nominee should be asked the
following 25 questions. This list is by no means exhaustive.
Many of these questions were suggested by this
author last month, but because they remain unanswered, I offer them again in
the hope that the debate moderator will see fit to get answers from the
California senator who, if elected, will be one heart beat away from the
presidency.
1. After President Trump
nominated Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court, many Democrats endorsed
the idea of “packing” the Supreme Court
by expanding the number of seats and filling them with liberal justices. You
and Vice President Biden have refused to give your
position on court-packing. Are you in favor of packing the court?
2. Do you believe Judge Barrett’s
resume as a federal judge, former Supreme Court law clerk, and Notre Dame law
professor qualifies her for the job? If not, why not? If so, how do you—as a
feminist—justify your apparent ambivalence about even
meeting with a qualified woman judicial nominee?
3. Judge Barrett has been
attacked by members of your party because of her Catholic faith. This is of
great concern to many millions of American Catholics because this appears to be
a pattern with your
party. In fact, you yourself once attacked a judicial nominee on the basis of his membership in
the Catholic organization the Knights of Columbus, which
is the largest fraternal organization in the world and includes among
its past and present members many prominent Americans like President John
F. Kennedy, Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito, Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV),
Gov. John Bel Edwards (D-LA), and Vince Lombardi. Do you believe that
being a member of the Knights of Columbus disqualifies a person from
holding public office? Would you refuse to hire someone on the
basis of their membership in the Knights of Columbus or any other Catholic
organization? In your questioning of this Catholic judicial nominee, you singled out
the issue of the Catholic teaching on the sanctity of life. Would you
disqualify a job applicant on the basis of their Catholic beliefs,
including their beliefs about abortion? Do you believe that being pro-life
disqualifies someone from employment?
4. Your history of attacking a
judicial nominee solely on the basis of his membership in a Catholic
organization led former Speaker Newt Gingrich to describe you as an
“openly anti-Catholic bigot.” Do you disavow this characterization?
5. Should American Catholics or
Catholic organizations be forced to pay for other people’s abortions? If
elected, would you seek to force Catholics to fund abortions and other
practices that are fundamentally in violation of their faith?
6. You recently claimed that you
chose to become a prosecutor because you wanted to protect victims of sexual
abuse. However, during your 13-year tenure as San Francisco’s district attorney
and then California’s attorney general, you refused to prosecute
any of the sexual abuse claims brought against Catholic priests, despite the
pleas from victim groups. Why?
7. Also, why did your attorney
general’s office refuse to release
the documents obtained from the San Francisco archdiocese with all
the information about priests accused of sexual abuse? Victims’
rights groups have criticized your office for deliberately burying
these documents and thereby covering up the crimes and leaving the public
unprotected. Why did you do this? The San Francisco district
attorney’s office claimed in 2019 that they no longer have these documents
in their possession. What happened to them? How can you claim to be a
defender of children when you declined to prosecute the abusers of
children?
8. Last June, you encouraged your Twitter followers to donate to a bail fund to assist
protesters arrested in the Minneapolis, Minnesota, riots. Are you aware that in
July this bail fund sprang from jail a
man who was accused of sexually assaulting an 8-year-old girl? In August, the
fund posted bail for a
man accused of assaulting a 71-year-old woman whose home he had burglarized. In
June, the fund helped bail out a
man accused of stomping and robbing a victim in Minneapolis on the same day
George Floyd died. Between June and August, the fund helped bail out six men who
were accused of domestic violence, including two who were accused of strangling women in their homes. Do you have any words for the
victims of these crimes?
9. Why did your office decline to investigate
the health supplement fraud cases involving companies your husband’s law firm
represented? Did you, as California’s attorney general, ever purposefully
decline investigating or prosecuting clients of your husband’s law firm?
10. You said you believed the women
accusing Joe Biden of inappropriate touching. Do you believe Tara Reade? If not, why not?
If so, how do you justify supporting him now?
11. Why did you single out journalist
David Daleiden for prosecution for undercover journalism that others do without
penalty?
12. Your chief-of-staff, Karine
Jean-Pierre, wrote an op-ed last year
attacking the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) and Americans
who associate with it, stating “You cannot call yourself a progressive while
continuing to associate yourself with an organization like AIPAC that has often
been the antithesis of what it means to be progressive.” Do you believe that
pro-Israel activism is incompatible with progressive values?
13. The Biden campaign has adopted
a version of the Green New Deal that calls for 100 percent renewable
electricity generation by 2035. California has adopted similar “green” goals,
but now it can’t keep the lights on due to the state’s reliance on wind and
solar energy. California’s Democratic Gov. Gavin Newson recently admitted that the
Golden State needs a “backup” plan for energy because the current blackouts
caused by lack of wind and overcast skies have shown the danger of relying
solely on “green” energy. Why would the nation fare any better than sunny
breezy California in keeping the lights on if we adopt 100 percent renewable
energy?
14. You said in the
past that we “need to hold China accountable” for trade violations, but you are
against the use of tariffs. How do you intend to hold China accountable? You
also said that “we need to export American products, not American jobs.” How do
you intend to make sure we don’t export more American jobs to China? How would
your policy differ significantly from the same policies that led to the loss
of 4 million jobs to China?
15. You have supported the often violent Black Lives
Matter uprisings and encouraged them to
continue. Have you spoken to any victims of the riots — people who lost loved ones or businesses?
16. Do you believe that the
looting of the Magnificent Mile in Chicago was a “form of reparations,” as one
Chicago Black Lives Matter organizer claimed? Is looting an appropriate form of
protest as a means of reparations?
17. Seattle Black Lives Matter
protesters stormed a
neighborhood, demanding that residents “get the f*** out” and “give black
people back their homes” as reparations. Do you support that style of protest?
If not, have you condemned it?
18. You recently claimed that it is
both “outdated” and “wrongheaded” to think that adding police officers to the
streets is the only way to make communities safer. What do you propose we do to
stop the current wave of violent crime engulfing our cities?
19. What is the maximum number of
illegal immigrants you would allow into the country before securing the border
to stop more from entering?
20. The Obama administration deported an estimated 3 million illegal aliens. Was that a bad
thing?
21. With 30 million
Americans unemployed due to the coronavirus, would you support a halt on work
visas for foreign workers competing with Americans for jobs? If not, explain to
us why CEOs will not use this huge increase in the supply of labor to freeze
and reduce salaries for American workers?
22. A number of prominent tech
industry leaders have endorsed your campaign
citing your support for increasing the number of H-1B foreign workers. Why is
importing more foreign workers to compete with Americans a good idea right now?
23. Wall Street has praised Vice
President Biden’s decision to choose you as his running mate. Why do you think
financial special interests support you so much?
24. Will you be following the
advice of your Wall Street and Silicon Valley donors in negotiating with
China? If not, whose advice would you seek out in negotiating with China?
25. You have called on Congress to act on a
coronavirus stimulus package, but you skipped a vote on a Republican proposal
that would have provided relief to Americans. Are you putting any pressure on
members of your party to stop blocking relief
legislation for Americans?

Facebook Manually Censored NY Post Biden Corruption Bombshell
1 Nov

A report published this week alleges
that Facebook manually censored the New York
Post bombshell story about Biden family corruption.
According to the Guardian, Facebook moderators manually overrode the platform’s automatic
processes to censor the Post, an effort that successfully censored about half of the
engagement the article would have received, according to researchers.
According to a report by the Guardian,
internal documents from Facebook suggest that the platform intentionally
restricted the distribution of a New
York Post report that allegedly revealed ties between
Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden and a Ukrainian energy company. The
suppression was not automatic or based on Facebook’s AI and algorithmic approach
to content, but rather done by hand by Facebook moderators.
This does not come as a surprise as some Facebook
executives announced their decision to restrict the distribution of the report.
In a tweet, Facebook’s Policy Communications Director Andy Stone said that the
story would be restricted in some form on the platform.
“While I will intentionally not link to the New York Post, I
want be clear that this story is eligible to be fact checked by Facebook’s
third-party fact checking partners. In the meantime, we are reducing its
distribution on our platform,” Stone wrote in a tweet on October 14.

According to an internal Facebook policy, the platform will
remove “unverified rumors” that could lead to violence, harm, or voter
interference. It is not clear how this policy is applied by Facebook.
“Generally, we take action on misinformation rated by
fact-checking partners by reducing its spread and surfacing more information to
people,” the policy reads. “However, we will remove misinformation if it
violates our Community Standards, including misinformation and unverified
rumors that could contribute to the risk of imminent violence or physical
harm, voter and census interference content, and certain manipulated
videos…”
Facebook’s censorship of the Post was deemed successful by social media
engagement experts that examined the decision. They found that the Post‘s bombshell article only
reached about half the engagement it would have been expected to reach on its
own. Mark Zuckerberg denied censoring the Post during
his recent testimony to the Senate Commerce Committee.
Breitbart News reported over the weekend that Twitter has finally reinstated the
Twitter account belonging to the New
York Post. The newspaper was locked out of their account on October
14 following the publication of the Hunter Biden story.

Disposable Joe
Joe Biden's candidacy is built on his three outstanding "abilities": electability, plausible deniability, and (after he is elected) disposability.
Electability
Electability was what got him the nomination. The Democrats' backroom clique thought Biden was the most electable candidate, so they pulled strings to get him the nomination. Recall that Biden was not doing all that well in the polls and early primaries against Bernie Sanders. In fact, if the already defeated Elizabeth Warren had not stayed in the race, bleeding away progressive votes from Sanders until Biden had it wrapped up, Sanders might now be the Democrat leader.
Plausible Deniability
Tony Bobulinski, a former key man in the Biden Family Racket, appeared on the Tucker Carlson show and drew the outlines of the shady practices that enriched Joe and his family on the backs of the American people. At one point, Bobulinski talked about how he came to the conclusion that what they were doing was not right morally and for most people would be a crime. Bobulinski related a conversation he had with James Biden, Joe's brother.
"I remember saying, 'How are you guys getting away with this?' 'Aren't you concerned?'" he told Carlson.
He claims that Jim Biden chuckled.
"'Plausible Deniability,' he said it directly to me in a cabana at the Peninsula Hotel," he said.
This highlights the fact that Joe Biden has been living on the mere idea of plausibility for most of his career, never more so than in this election cycle. Even before he went into politics, he was stealing ideas, wholesale chunks of speeches and written words. He has become uber wealthy on a Senate salary that has never gone higher than $175,000 a year. His immediate family has accumulated fabulous wealth through government contracts and no-show jobs with organizations in countries Joe has had responsibility for in his posts as senator and vice president. He has skated by all that because of the fog of plausibility conferred by his position, political correctness, and his connections to the power brokers of the Democrat party.
If this is all very insubstantial, it is even more mysterious that he is now so close to becoming what would plausibly be the first temporary president of the United States. Finally, in the twilight of his life, disposability has become his defining attribute.
Disposability
The frail, confused, mumble-mouthed character we see at pathetic rallies and in Zoom calls is arguably less presidential than anyone you could pick at random out of the Omaha, Nebraska phone book (if you remember what they were). But that is of no consideration for the claque that put him forward. Nancy Pelosi has already been doing exploratory drills using the 25th Amendment. You only have to watch and listen to Ol' Joe for a little while to know that his handle on the Oval Office will be thoroughly greased up by his "supporters" in the party apparatus who can't wait to do all the things they can't convince us to vote for.
Have no doubt: he will be disposed of if voted in. After that, the deluge.

Eight hard questions for the Democrats
We are close to Nov. 3, and too many polls predict victory for the Biden-Harris ticket for conservatives to feel comfortable.
Democrat candidate Joe Biden's voters have already shown their willingness to overlook his senescence and history of corruption, and they may well also overlook the evidence of utter corruption revealed in the new Hunter Biden computer drive.
The reality is that the Democrat/media/academic/tech industry behemoth has shown its willingness to do anything to get the Biden-Harris ticket elected. The time for subtlety and finesse is past for Republicans — it's time to hammer home again and again a finite number of points to point out the radicalism and deceit of the 2020 opposition. The injustices done to President Trump from 2016 to the present — the Russia hoax, the special counsel, the impeachment — are water under the bridge. The injustices planned by the left for the American people after a victory in this election should be concentrated upon, drummed into the public consciousness over and over again.
Questions to ask the 2020 Democrats:
1) Why are you opposing respected American traditions and Constitutional freedoms?
Why such anti-Americanism in your convention platform and in numerous acts and statements of policy? Why opposition to the rights to assembly, to worship, to freedom of speech, to the right to bear arms, to the Electoral College? Why support for open borders, for Medicare for illegal aliens, for abolishing ICE? Why support for "defunding the police" and then support for violent rioting and looting? Why support for packing the Supreme Court and for minting new "states" for political advantage? You Democrats are even endorsing the enormities of the "transgender" movement, where people can supposedly change their sex by flipping a mental switch, and enter women's bathrooms or be transferred to women's prisons at will.
2) Why do you want to prolong the damage of the Wuhan virus to our economy?
Why extend lockdowns with endless "states of emergency" in supposed respect for bogus "science" when Texas's, Florida's, and other states' experiences show that the economy-murdering lockdowns of businesses and schools do not lessen virus contagions over the long term — they just extend individual suffering through unemployment, economic suffering, isolation, and harm to children?
3) Why do you support the Green New Deal and the presumption of man-made global warming?
The GND would pole-axe the American economy, even without lockdowns and the rest of the Democrat program. Yes, the climate is always changing, and it may be getting warmer. That does not mean that it is caused by human activity or that it can be reversed by our shedding a few centuries of human progress. Man-made climate change is a weird New Age faith, not anything remotely scientific. There was so much water stored in immense glaciers only 10,000 years ago, including giant glaciers over Wisconsin, that a land passage existed between Britain and Europe. Then it melted, and the seas rose, and the English Channel was created, and it was not caused by the campfires of the mammoth-hunters!
4) How can you justify your suicidal attitude to national policy?
Democrats keep harping on the Russian danger and on the Hillary Russian election hoax, while downplaying the threat of a one-party totalitarian, tyrannical, and aggressive China (where, let us not forget, the Wuhan virus originated and whence it was gifted to the world). China is the unfair trader and the thief of our technologies and industries. Democrats are even worse in their Obama-like downplaying of the danger from the mad mullahs of Iran, with their unbridled pursuit of nuclear weapons and of aggression against their neighbors, against Israel, and against the West in general. Democrats are ostrich-like.
5) Why do you pursue the politics of the big lie, endlessly repeated?
About police brutality against blacks, from "Hands Up, Don't Shoot" to the causes of George Floyd's death? About white supremacists supposedly rioting in the streets? About President Trump supposedly causing 200,000 deaths from the Wuhan virus by not using the magic wand that you claim he has but no other national leader possesses? And what about your endless repetition of the undying Charlottesville hoax about the president supposedly praising white supremacists and neo-Nazis (Rabbi Dov Fischer's "The Protocols of the Elders of Charlottesville" should put an end to that hoax in a rational world)? Goebbels would be proud of today's Democrats.
6) Why do you support anti-American racial divisiveness and violence?
The left is always eager to create verbal constructs with which to limit our freedoms — thus their acceptance of "Critical Race Theory" about the alleged existence of systemic/structural racism in America and the following spread of Maoist indoctrination sessions nationwide. Why your acceptance of the false and ignorant "1619 Project," designed to simply smear America? Why your "woke" acceptance of the Smithsonian African-American History Museum's idiotic listing of "white" as opposed to "black" character traits?
Marxism is a violence-loving doctrine, seeing conflict and subsequent violence as necessary for history's inevitable progress. This has resulted in the Left's tolerance for endless "protests" and the ensuing rioting and looting in Democrat-run cities and states. In June idiot "revolutionaries" were eager to recreate 1917 Russia in 2020 America by pulling down the statue of Andrew Jackson in Lafayette Park in D.C., setting a nearby church on fire and making moves to attack the White House itself. Black lives do NOT matter to the Marxist-racist BLM organization, nor is the Marxist-anarchist "Antifa" movement against a nonexistent fascism -- it is anti-U.S. Constitution and anti-freedom. Why do Democrats not condemn such groups?
7) Why your deceptive offer of a presidential candidate?
A malleable , mediocre, now-senile, angry hack politician with decades of non-accomplishment and with a history of personal and family corruption. A record of personal nastiness and lying and fantasy stories, of personal subservience to special interests (Delaware's banks) and exponential enrichment of his family through obviously corrupt multimillion dollar bribes from China, Ukraine, and Russia. Biden is just a temporary front man.
8) Finally, why your equally deceptive offer of your real ( stealth ) Presidential candidate?
The real head of the Democratic ticket is the supposedly vice-presidential candidate, Sen. Kamala Harris. She is the one who still has all her marbles, and who will become president as soon as the doddering Biden dies or is declared too senile to be president. She is deceptively presented as a Black American, while she is actually of a privileged East Indian-Jamaican background, and advanced in California politics by being a political kingmaker's sexual toy. She has surpassed her lack of principles as California's Attorney General only by her record of being the most far-Left senator since entering the Senate (and what competition she beat). Although one must acknowledge that, unlike Hunter, she had the wits not to allow any video or other type of camera in the neighborhood when she engaged in "shenanigans-for-rewards" with Willie Brown, the married Democratic kingmaker thirty years her senior.
To conclude all this, President Trump could put a cherry on the cake with two promises: If reelected, he would do everything legally possible to revive the American economy by putting a speedy end to States' unreasonable economic lockdowns; and make the cost-free rioting, violence and destruction in Democrat-controlled areas stop.
Since March, for seven months, the "emergency" and "temporary" economic and social lockdowns have attacked Americans' freedoms and livelihoods. And since May, for five months, Marxist-inspired and organized violent rioting and looting have taken place with virtual impunity in Democrat-controlled cities and states. Both the lockdowns and the riots can fall through the cracks of our federal governmental system and be considered only local responsibilities, but the extent and especially the length of both lockdowns and rioting have by now made them national problems. The president could promise that if reelected he will restore the freedoms, rights and safety stolen from Americans by these "local" policies by :
a) asking Attorney General William Barr to look at all possibilities of federal action to restore those freedoms and rights ;
b) by himself taking all possible action by executive order to do the same;
...and...
c) if there is still not enough national authority to deal with problems which have become national in their effects, by asking Congress to pass appropriate legislation.
How nice it would be to see law and order reintroduced again after this half-year of insurrectionist activities by invoking the Insurrection Act, so that these "black block" Molotov-cocktail and brick-throwing insurrectionists who want to do gladiatorial combat with the police will face federal troops and federal prison sentences. Let's see how they like being dressed in orange rather than black.

Joe Biden Campaign Won’t Say if He’ll Cooperate with FBI Probe on Son
Former Vice President Joe Biden’s presidential campaign refuses to say whether the candidate will cooperate with an FBI criminal investigation into his son Hunter Biden.
On Thursday, Sinclair investigative reporter James Rosen reported the FBI in 2019 opened a criminal investigation of Hunter Biden and his associates focused on money laundering that remains open and active.
Breitbart News sent a query to the Biden campaign on Thursday but did not receive a response.
The query asked:
In light of Sinclair TV’s James Rosen’s reporting on Thursday evening that the FBI opened a criminal investigation in 2019 into “Hunter Biden and his associates” focused on allegations of money-laundering and that it remains open and active today, I would like to ask the following:
1) Do former VP Joe Biden, his son Hunter Biden, and brother James Biden intend to cooperate with the FBI investigation?
2) If elected president, will Joe Biden commit to not pardoning Hunter if the FBI charges him with a crime that he may be convicted of?
The FBI reportedly seized a laptop and hard drive belonging to Hunter Biden, after it was abandoned at a computer repair shop and in possession of the shop owner John Paul Mac Isaac.
Fox News previously reported on FBI documents, including an FBI “Receipt for Property” form, detailing the FBI’s interactions with Isaac, the owner of “The Mac Shop” who reported the laptop’s contents to authorities.
Matt PerdieOne document had a “Case ID” section, which was filled with the hand-written number: 272D-BA-3065729, Fox News reported. The “272” is reportedly the FBI’s classification for money laundering, and “272D” refers to “Money Laundering, Unknown SUA [Specified Unlawful Activity]—White Collar Crime Program. “BA” means the case was opened in the FBI’s Baltimore field office, sources told Fox News.
Another document was a subpoena sent to Isaac to testify before U.S. District Court in Delaware on December 9, 2019. The documents also state the subpoena was carried out in Wilmington, Delaware, which falls under the jurisdiction of the FBI’s Baltimore Field Office, according to the report.
Sinclair’s Rosen also reported a former Hunter Biden business partner, Tony Bobulinski, was interviewed by the FBI on October 23, 2020, for five hours, on Biden’s overseas business dealings. Bobulinski has said that Hunter Biden’s father, Joe Biden, was involved in those dealings.
BREAKING: Tony Bobulinski says the team of @FBI agents who interviewed him for five hours last Friday were "taking extensive notes and asked multiple questions" about Hunter Biden's texts on Burisma and Ukraine. More to come soon on this feed and your @WeAreSinclair stations.
