Hunter Biden faces possible subpoena after missing deadline to turn over docs
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K6hxjrGHJ8I
My colleague Peter Schweizer’s runaway bestseller, Red Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win, first revealed that the Biden family received some $31 million from the highest levels of Chinese intelligence at the same time Hunter was paying the vice president’s bills. Schweizer believes that there is a slam dunk case to indict Hunter Biden.

THE BIDEN KLEPTOCRACY
American people deserve to know what China was up to with Joe Biden, especially when Beijing had already shelled out millions of dollars to Biden family members — including millions in set-asides for “the big guy.” What else is on that infamous Hunter Biden laptop? The conflicted Biden Justice Department cannot be trusted to engage in any meaningful oversight on this issue. We need a special counsel now.
TOM FITTON - JUDICIAL WATCH
Breitbart Political Editor Emma-Jo Morris’s investigative work at the New York Post on the Hunter Biden “laptop from hell” also captured international headlines when she, along with Miranda Devine, revealed that Joe Biden was intimately involved in Hunter’s businesses, appearing to even have a 10 percent stake in a company the scion formed with officials at the highest levels of the Chinese Communist Party.

Hunter has reportedly sold five paintings worth $75,000 each to an anonymous buyer. Hunter’s art dealer, Georges Bergès, has previously boasted he had strong ties to businessmen in Communist China, which has concerned many due to the Biden family’s business ventures abroad.
“We are 95% sure that that artwork went to China,” Comer said. “We don’t know where exactly that went to in China, but we’re going to try to find out when we get subpoena power.”

Peter Schweizer’s new book Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win tells the story of how Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s (D-CA) husband Richard Blum was part owner of a Chinese firm that allegedly sold computers with spyware chips to the U.S. military. The military has never been able to calculate how much sensitive data these computers allowed China to steal.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.: Wall Street, China Turning American Farms into ‘Corporate Fiefdoms’
A “farmland buying spree” by Wall Street hedge funds and China is turning American farms into “corporate fiefdoms,” Democrat presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. says.
In 2021, as Breitbart News reported, Chinese investors bought up $6.1 billion worth of United States housing, real estate, and land. Kennedy, in a Twitter post, criticized the federal government’s allowing hedge funds and foreign countries like China to buy up American land.
“Farmland buying spree by Wall Street’s mammoth hedge funds and China are turning America’s and the globe’s agricultural landscapes into corporate fiefdoms and farmers into serfs,” Kennedy wrote. “Many people do not understand that small farms actually outproduce large industrial farms.”
The Center for Research on Globalization report posted by Kennedy details how a small group of corporate behemoths dominate the nation’s food industry and, thus, have a stake in who controls American farmland.
Likewise, China, according to a 2021 USDA report, owns nearly 384,000 acres of American farmland –195,000 acres of which were purchased by Chinese investors and the other 189,000 acres of which were purchased by U.S. corporations with Chinese shareholders.
From 2019 to 2020 alone, China bought up 105,000 acres of American farmland. Then, in 2021, China purchased another 32,000 acres of land across the United States.
Like China, American billionaires are buying up America’s farmland and real estate at historic levels — driving up real estate prices for working- and middle-class communities. Today, billionaire Bill Gates owns almost 250,000 acres of American farmland, making him the largest private owner of agricultural land in the nation.
Sens. Tom Cotton (R-AR) and Katie Britt (R-AL) filed legislation months ago that would ban Chinese nationals and Chinese companies from buying and owning real estate in the United States. The legislation, and its nearly identical bill in the House, does not have any Democrat co-sponsors.

RFK Jr. Champions Economic Populism: Protect American Workers with Tariffs
Democrat presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is championing a populist-nationalist approach to the United States economy, vowing to impose tariffs on foreign imports to protect American workers and industries from unfair trade competition.
In a series of Twitter posts, Kennedy detailed the nation’s growing wealth inequalities whereby the very top earners — many of which are billionaires — have seen their share of income grow exponentially while the share of income among working- and middle-class Americans has steadily declined.
The breakdown of unions — in part, as a result of decades-long job-killing free trade policies — has coincided with growing income inequalities, Kennedy noted.
“The top share of income going to the top 10% has increased from 35% in 1945 to more than 45% today. Union membership has declined in the same period from 33% to about 10% — its lowest level since the 1930s,” he wrote on Twitter:
From the end of WWII through the 1980s, income distribution stayed relatively constant. But union membership began declining, and the share of income going to the bottom 90% followed it. Capitalism only functions equitably if workers have the collective bargaining power of unions, so they can claim a fair share of the economic pie. [Emphasis added]
In terms of countering the decline of working- and middle-class income growth, Kennedy said the U.S. ought to impose tariffs on foreign imports to protect its workforce and domestic industries from widespread offshoring of American jobs at the hands of multinational corporations.
“As President, I will protect American labor AND American industry,” Kennedy wrote on Twitter. “One thing I will consider: tariffs on imports from countries that allow exploitation of workers. American industries should not be forced to offshore to low-wage areas as nations compete with each other to sacrifice wages and working conditions in a ‘race to the bottom.'”
While free trade and trade deficits have eliminated millions of American jobs, devastating working- and middle-class communities, tariffs would likely drive up domestic production, increase wages, and reshore jobs to the U.S., research has shown.
A recent study from economists at the Coalition for a Prosperous America, for instance, finds that tariffs on nearly all foreign imports would create about ten million American jobs while boosting domestic output.
As Kennedy mentioned, middle-class wealth has dropped to a historic low.
The middle class, as of 2021, includes 77.5 million U.S. households with an annual income of $27,000 to $141,000. In October 2021, Breitbart News reported the top one percent of income earners in the U.S. now hold more wealth than the entire American middle class.
Specifically, the middle class has seen its share of national wealth plummet to just 26.6 percent while the top one percent’s share of wealth has grown to 27 percent — the first time in U.S. history that the top one percent’s share of wealth has outpaced the middle class’s share of wealth.

The Decline and Fall of the American Empire
A cursory examination of history reveals that the United States is mired in the same process that precipitated the collapse of the great empires of the past. The foibles and failures of human nature and their impact on the rise and fall of empires is amazingly consistent and the end result always inevitable. Can this nation avoid a similar fate?
Empires are defined as great military and economic powers encompassing large occupied or controlled land areas. Although they vary greatly, they average around 250 years in duration. The United States will be celebrating its 250th anniversary in 2026.
In 1976, Sir John Glubb, a distinguished British diplomat and general, wrote an essay on the fate of empires throughout history. He enumerated, based on 3,000 years of historical data, the six various stages in the rise and fall of empires.
These stages and how they apply to the United States are as follows:
- The Age of Pioneers (The Revolutionary War and the founding of the Nation)
- The Age of Conquests (The Western Expansion to the Pacific Ocean)
- The Age of Commerce (Industrialization and evolution of a dominant middle class)
- The Age of Affluence (The meteoric rise of the standard of living in the 20th Century)
- The Age of Intellect (Global domination in the arts, medicine and technology)
- The Age of Decadence (For 30+ years America has been increasingly mired in this age )
The Age of Decadence is marked by debauchery, defensiveness, pessimism, materialism, a significant weakening of religion, frivolity, a welfare state, and a massive influx of unassimilated foreigners. These symptoms of national decadence are the end product of long periods of prosperity and power, love of wealth and status, and self-obsession by the ruling elites leading to fateful government corruption and instability.
Sir John Glubb is definitive in stating that in all ancient and modern fallen empires, “there does not appear to be any doubt that money is the agent which causes the decline of strong, brave and self-confident people.”
An examination of various empires from the Persian Empire to the Roman Empire to the British Empire confirms Glubb’s hypothesis that pursuit and accumulation of money or wealth is the portal through which power over the masses is achieved. The amassing of wealth and thus power evolves into a quasi-religion that over time triggers the descent into the age of decadence and corruption that inevitably leads to the collapse and conquering of empires by their external enemies.
In the early stage of the age of decadence, materialism becomes a driving force in society, inducing many in the upper classes to indulge in excessive, often conspicuous consumption as an absurdly wealthy elite emerges. Far too many societal elites and non-elites become convinced that increased consumption and social status is the key to happiness, but in its pursuit they become demonstrably more pessimistic and less happy and fulfilled.
The search for happiness and fulfillment leads to imprudence and voyeurism becoming central to the culture. Unhappy people searching for diversion became fixated on celebrities and captive to evolving voyeurism. And voyeurism takes on a more sinister aspect as people in both ancient and modern empires become increasingly desensitized to graphic images and willing spectators or participants in violence and debauchery.
Debauchery is an oft-recurring theme in the demise of empires. Societies develop an abnormally immature obsession with sex. An obsession that requires increasing deviancy to satiate coupled with concurrent abuse of children and the marginalization and exploitation of women. Meanwhile, the use of drugs and alcohol expands exponentially. Debauchery is a symptom of the absence of meaning in people’s lives leading to the self-destruction of society and concomitantly a loss of a sense of duty and patriotism.
Other symptoms common among many empires in the last stages of decline include:
- Massive and growing disparities between rich and poor and an undisciplined and over-extended military.
- An intensification of internal political hatreds and a corresponding inability to reconcile in order to save the empire.
- An ever increasing level of self-serving corruption and patronage among the ruling class.
- A massive influx of unassimilated foreigners whose allegiance and cultural ties are with their native lands and not the host nation and who do not feel obligated to defend the empire.
- Severe financial and economic crises linked to the unending debasement of the currency.
- An ongoing and irreversible decline in monotheistic religions that emphasize self-sacrifice, temperance, a sense of duty as well as honor and integrity.
Additionally, while the decline of empires is precipitated by internal factors, the final collapse is marked by defeat at the hands of powerful external enemies. The United States is presently facing an implacable and powerful external enemy, Communist China. A foe this nation’s elites, in their self-indulgent pursuit of wealth, essentially created by willfully intertwining the American economy with a ruthless and dictatorial communist regime.
Unfortunately, the vast bulk of the American citizenry is not aware of the historically precarious situation this nation finds itself. Nor are they aware that the policies and actions of the Marxist controlled Democrat party over the past 20 years is a window into what will happen to this nation if they continue in power. Another four to eight years of Democrat Party rule will permanently embed:
- Unchecked corruption in government and America’s corporations and institutions.
- The ongoing debasement of the currency, uncontrolled spending and economic instability,
- The continued massive influx of unassimilated foreigners,
- The intensification of political animosity and the persecution of any political opposition,
- An undisciplined, ideologically driven and feckless military incapable of confronting China,
- Drug-addled and crime-ridden dystopias in America’s major urban and suburban areas,
- Continued and accelerated mainstreaming of decadence and sexual debauchery
As the last three years have amply proven, decadence and sexual debauchery will continue apace. All forms of deviancy, including but not limited to pedophilia, will be forcefully mainstreamed. Religious liberties will be denigrated and curtailed. Infanticide and state-sponsored euthanasia will be legalized. Materialism and voyeurism will become the new state religion. And virtually all drugs will be legalized and easily available.
As the United States descends into insolvency, societal chaos and upheaval, Communist China, with which the Democrat party is intertwined, will actively abet and promote the dissolution of this country as it will be waiting vulture-like to feast on the carcass.
The inevitable can perhaps be mitigated if a significant majority of the populace acknowledges the current plight of the nation and initiates a return to the nation’s founding Judeo-Christian principles. Additionally, it is imperative that either Donald Trump or Ron DeSantis wins in November of 2024 and for a populist Republican Party to control both the presidency and Congress for a minimum of two presidential terms.
Republican primary voters must also acknowledge reality and not be captive to cultlike sycophancy for either Trump or DeSantis. They need to ask themselves: who can win against a corrupt and devious Democrat party reliant on voter fraud and manipulation in the battleground states of Georgia, Arizona, Wisconsin, Nevada and Pennsylvania? Who has the coattails to assure the capture of both Houses of Congress? And can that person can either serve a second term or make certain another Republican will win in 2028?
It is not hyperbole to say the upcoming election cycle is the most determinative in American history. If the Republicans fail to win the presidency and Congress in 2024, this nation will have passed the point of no return and a new chapter in the annals of the decline and fall of great nations will be written.

Biden Admin Defends Ford’s Work on China’s ‘Belt & Road Initiative’
State Department says project will bring Beijing in line with ESG guidelines
The Biden administration is defending Ford Motor Company’s work on a flagship project of China’s controversial Belt and Road Initiative, saying the American company’s involvement will help bring Beijing more in line with progressive investment standards.
Ford boasts about its partnership with a Chinese mining company on "one of the flagship projects under the Belt and Road Initiative," which U.S. officials have called a military and economic security threat. But in a letter to Sen. Marco Rubio (R., Fla.), State Department Assistant Secretary of Legislative Affairs Naz Durakoglu indicated that the Biden administration’s main concern with China’s Belt and Road Initiative is that the companies involved have "poor labor and ESG records." ESG is an acronym for a progressive-backed investment strategy that stands for "environmental, social, and corporate governance."
The letter, which was obtained by the Washington Free Beacon, suggests the Biden administration is no longer directly opposing the Belt and Road Initiative, and is now focused on improving the labor conditions of Beijing’s operation. The news comes over a month after the U.S. ambassador to Indonesia, Sung Kim, praised Ford’s partnership with China’s Zhejiang Huayou Cobalt Company on a nickel production facility in Indonesia. Rubio asked the State Department to investigate Kim’s comments in a letter earlier this month, to which Durakoglu has now replied.
Durakoglu said the Biden administration was concerned that the People’s Republic of China was using the Belt and Road Initiative to "advance its geopolitical strategy via PRC-controlled businesses with poor labor and ESG records."
"[China]-controlled mining companies in Indonesia that are not affiliated with U.S. companies generally maintain poor labor and environmental standards but currently dominate the Indonesian nickel sector," wrote Durakoglu. "Indonesian officials, including President Widodo, are focused on attracting additional countries’ firms to invest in the sector to raise labor and ESG standards."
Durakoglu added that the State Department "welcome[s] Indonesia’s aspirations to improve labor and ESG practices in this critical sector."
China’s "Belt and Road Initiative" is a massive, multi-continent infrastructure project that U.S. officials have described as a global security threat. The United States government has urged other countries not to participate in the initiative.
In 2021, President Joe Biden launched the "Build Back Better World" project, also known as "B3W," which was intended to counter the Belt and Road Initiative. But since then, there has been little public reporting on the American program’s progress.
The State Department did not respond to a request for comment.
Exclusive – J.D. Vance: GOP Must Call Out Illegal Immigration as ‘Economic Warfare’ Against Working Americans
Mass Migration Putting ‘Unbearable’ Strain on Housing Market, as Hundreds of Thousands of New Homes Needed to Meet Demand
The Tory government’s decision to further open the gates to mass migration — clearly against the will of the people — is placing an “unbearable” strain on the housing market, the Migration Watch UK has said amid warnings that hundreds of thousands of new homes will be needed to keep up with the artificially high demand.
Last week, it was revealed that rather than fulfilling very longstanding promises to the public of reducing migration, the governing Conservative Party under Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has overseen yet another record in terms of net migration, with 1.2 million foreigners moving to Britain in 2022. Once those who left the country in that period were taken to account, the nation was left with a record-breaking 606,000 net migration figure.
While liberal elites often try to overshadow the impacts of mass migration — with often the very same property-owning class benefiting from rising prices of houses in their asset portfolios — the economic and social impacts on the native working classes can be devastating.
Over the past near-30 years — since the gates of mass migration were opened by Tony Blair and intensified under successive Tory governments — wages have all but flatlined, with the median income only increasing by £90 in real terms per week since 1997.
During the same time frame, the average price of a house in the UK soared from £130,499 in 1997 to £269,242 in 2022 when adjusted for inflation, according to the real estate site AllAgents, meaning that while housing costs have jumped by 106 per cent, wages have only increased by 16 per cent, effectively pricing out millions from getting onto the property ladder.
In comments made to Breitbart London, Mike Jones, Executive Director of Migration Watch UK said: “Britain does not ‘need’ mass immigration. It has a rapidly-rising population of 67 million people, and considerable reserves of unused labour. In a densely populated country like ours, population growth is putting unbearable pressure on public services, placing huge demands on scarce land and housing.”
“Ultimately, it’s the British taxpayer who bears the burden: through higher taxes, longer waiting times and choking congestion. And yet the government has been encouraging more and more migration. People have come to the end of their tether; and that is why we have launched our petition urging the government to reduce net migration to less than 100,000 per year, it’s their chance to make their voice heard.”
During the time of mass migration, Britain has seen its population density (people per square kilometer of land area) spike from 241 in 1997 to 277 in 2020, making it the third most densely populated country in Europe, only trailing behind The Netherlands and Belgium, according to World Bank data.
The 2021 Census revealed that the population of England and Wales hit its highest level in recorded history, increasing by 3.5 million from 56 million to 59.6 million over the past decade, which the ONS has admitted was largely driven by mass migration, with 57 per cent of population growth being a result of immigration since 2011.
The effect of migration on the housing market is often disputed by the liberal elites. Yet according to an analysis conducted by the City of London investment bank Investec found that the latest record-breaking year of mass migration would require 250,000 homes to be built “just to satisfy the last 12 months of net migration”.
The rental market has been similarly squeezed by the huge influx of foreigners, many of whom cannot afford to buy a house and therefore are forced to rent. Imogen Pattison, of Capital Economics, told The Telegraph last week that the past year of migration would lead to the demand for an additional 205,000 rental houses and said that “net immigration in the UK could have increased rents by up to 8 per cent” over the past year, alone.
“Mass immigration has caused two decades of real terms wage stagnation among middle-low earners, alongside skyrocketing property inflation,” Bow Group Chairman Ben Harris-Quinney told Breitbart London.
“It has disproportionately benefited the wealthiest and hurt the poorest more than any policy in history. Alongside this it has uprooted the cultural heritage of many of the poorest areas in Britain, leaving most the wealthiest areas untouched.”
The decision then by the globalist government in Westminster seemingly then fulfills the WEF mantra of “you will own nothing and be happy”. The fewer people who can get onto the property ladder has serious societal ramifications, such as driving down fertility rates as citizens feel less secure in their lives and delay big decisions.
In 2020, the native-born fertility rate fell to its lowest level in recorded history, at 1.58 children per woman, far below the needed 2.1 children ‘replacement rate’ needed to maintain the population. Yet, foreigners saw their fertility rate rise to 1.98, with the most popular country of origin being Pakistan.
Although housing is typically viewed only through the lens of economics, rental and housing prices have been demonstrated to have a direct correlation with fertility rates.
“Faster-rising rents are associated with lower fertility for all age groups: for women in their 20s or 30s, if rent is rising, fertility is falling. While some families get income from rental properties, this is far less numerous than the families paying rent, and families earning money from rent tend to be older, more geographically dispersed, and less fertile anyway,” the Institute for Family Studies noted.
Yet, this demographic collapse among Britons does not appear to concern the elites in the Conservative Party, with former Health Secretary Sajid Javid saying “so what?” in response to Brexit leader Nigel Farage expressing concern about major cities such as Birmingham becoming minority-majority cities.
