IF JOE BIDEN IS AS SENILE AS HE IS STAGING HIMSELF, THEN HOW COULD HAVE ORCHESTRATED SUCH MASSIVE DAMAGE TO AMERICA IN SUCH SHORT OF TIME???
JOE BIDEN IS A LIAR, CON MAN AND GAMER LAWYER. THAT'S ALL HE'S EVER BEEN. HE WILL BOW OUT DUE TO SENILITY BUT ONLY RIGHT AFTER HE PARDONS HUNTER!
Biden, long known as Delaware’s “senator from DuPont,” Biden served on committees that were most sensitive to the interests of the ruling class, including the Judiciary Committee and the Foreign Relations Committee. He supported the repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act in 1999, a milestone in the deregulation of the banks, and other right-wing measures. After nearly four decades in the Senate, Biden became Obama’s vice president, helping to oversee the massive bailout of Wall Street following the 2008 financial crisis and the subsequent restructuring of class relations to benefit the rich. That included the bailout of General Motors and Chrysler, based on a 50 percent cut in the pay of all newly hired autoworkers.
Our Alleged President is a Corrupt Scumbag – and the Ruling Class is OK With That
Is a backlash coming?
It’s undeniable that PINO – President-In-Name-Only – Joe Biden is massively corrupt in every possible way. From leveraging his position as vice-president for cash to covering up for his meth-addled, stripper-banging, scumbag son – who is currently spilling his Bolivian party powder all over the White House – this senile pervert is a one-man crimewave. And the ruling class simply doesn’t care. If anything, its members are happy about it. This is not something they merely excuse. This is something that they find a positive good. Grandpa Badfinger reset the corruption bar for all of them. Now they too can now freely line their own pockets without fear of shame or prosecution while sending us proles an unequivocal message – we can do whatever we want.
As the gang at the Ruthless podcast (who I’m scheduled to visit next month) observe, this is not about hypocrisy. We’re so far past “Imagine the scandal if Trump did that!” This is about hierarchy. This is to show you that they have power and there is nothing you can do about it.
But I’m unconvinced they are thinking this through.
Granted, it’s bad now and will likely get worse before it gets worse – for them. Let’s understand something. Nothing is ever going to happen to Joe Biden regarding his massive criminal enterprise. Nada. Zip. Asa Hutchinson’s chances in the primaries.
Sure, Crusty is probably going to get impeached somewhere down the road, once the Republicans gather all the evidence they can, and there’s a lot of evidence. It’s damning. And it does not matter because Democrats support the PINO’s graft. While the impeachment will barely squeak through the House on a pure party line vote, it’ll go over and die in the Senate. Not a single Democrat – well, maybe election-year Manchin – will vote for it. Understand that to the Democrat Party, power is more important than any of our norms, rules and/or customs. We constantly hear about “Our Democracy,” despite us being a Republic. Well, Our Democracy, Our Butt. It doesn’t mean a nation run by citizens to them. It means the nation run by them.
So, Joe Biden will skate on being impeached, as will that loathsome Stasi clerk Merrick Garland, and whatever that idiot’s name is who runs Homeland Security and left the border wide open. There will be no accountability because there is no accountability. The ruling class figured out that if they just refuse to abide by the rules that used to exist, there’s no cosmic referee out there who will descend from the sky and enforce them. The regime media certainly isn’t going to do it. You just bullSchiff your way through, you commit a bunch of crimes, and you keep your position and your prestige. That’s great for the elite in the short-term. It’s not so great for Our Democracy in the long term. But the elite does not want citizens to have a say in our government. It does not want us to have a saying in anything. It wants us to be disenfranchised, disarmed, defeated, and sometimes deceased.
Look at all the norms and the rules and the guardrails that have been bulldozed away and you might well wonder what the bottom of this slippery slope is going look like. But those of us with a glancing familiarity with history don’t wonder. We know the answer, and the answer is not particularly nice. In the short-term, America will stumble along under the New Corruption for a while, but over time this is unsustainable. These guys are running our country on the fumes of the empty gas tank of American democracy. They keep going because of inertia, running on the power of default. Normal people want to think everything‘s just going along as it always has, but they can sense that something is wrong. They are troubled when they see the persecution of Donald Trump and other dissidents, of pandemic shenanigans, of Wall Street bailouts and endless wars, but it’s comforting for them to assume that everything is working, that the system is fair and just, and that we aren’t living in a dictatorship of the Whole Foods bourgeoise.
Those of us who are based see the reality and accept it, and that’s why we’re not freaking out when we see Hunter using daddy’s name in vain to shake down Chinese crooks for cash. It’s not a shock. We understand the inherent corruption of the ruling class. We understand that the idea that we live under the rule of law is baloney. We understand that the only thing that matters is power. But the normal people are going to figure that out too. How do I know? Because I know history, and this kind of crap cannot go on forever.
The advantage that patriots have over the people running the institutions is that our garbage ruling class is not composed of impressive people. They didn’t build the institutions they are destroying. They inherited them via their Ivy League credentials – often as legacies, which the left will cry about but not actually change because that is how the ruling class perpetuates itself. These are not accomplished people. These are not smart people. These are not brave people, and these are not tough people. They are cruel and ruthless people, willing to use the existing systems of power to defend their societal sinecure, but their problem and their weaknesses that they rely on the proles to do their dirty work.
Can the elite really rely on them? As I’ve discussed before, they can certainly rely on the leadership of the institutions, like the military, to do whatever they were told to do in order to maintain the power of our garbage ruling class. But an institution is not just its leaders. An institution is also its members. The members are largely normals. And remember that the enemy – and you are the enemy – always gets a vote. Crushing us would be no simple task no matter what F-16 advocates like our PINO say.
How is this trend going to turn out? It’s too early to say. But it very likely will get much, much worse. It is not beyond the realm of possibility that Republicans are going to nominate a man for president who the Democrats will throw in jail on trumped up charges – figuratively and literally – before the 2024 election. And then it’s going to occur to even the most unbased people that the rules don’t necessarily apply anymore. Oh, we’re not going to break into some sort of civil war because Trump gets hauled off to Leavenworth. That’s not likely for a number of reasons. But it is going to destroy the illusions of norms for the normals, and the illusion of norms matters. Norms are, in fact, the only real protection those currently engaged in eliminating the norms have.
I’ve often said that Trump is not our last chance but their last chance, and that remains accurate. A backlash is coming. It’s inevitable. Just look at history, which is a giant timeline of rebellions and reformations and revolutions. The idea that the mass of Americans is going to spend the rest of eternity being bullied by a bunch of people with the politics of a divorced Santa Monica wine mom simply goes against everything history teaches us. The question is not if they are stopped but how, and how hard.
Are we going to re-embrace the Constitution? Are we looking at an American Cesar, or an American Franco? These are questions that our ruling class will never ask because they are uninformed of history and uninterested in it. But they’re going to get interested, very interested, in history because history is very interested in them.

Brain Rage: Biden’s Violent Temper a Common Symptom of Dementia, Alzheimer’s
Tantrums so bad some staffers 'try to avoid meeting alone with him'
What happened: President Joe Biden terrifies White House aides with his "quick-trigger temper" and expletive-filled rants, Axios reported on Monday.
• Examples of the president's foul-mouthed eruptions include: "God dammit, how the f—k don't you know this?!" "Don't f—king bulls—t me!" and "Get the f—k out of here!"
• Biden's temper tantrums are so bad some staff members "try to avoid meeting alone with him."
What it means: Increased anger and agitation are common symptoms of dementia and Alzheimer's disease, according to the National Institute on Aging (NIA).
• "People with Alzheimer’s disease may become agitated or aggressive as the disease gets worse," the NIA advises Alzheimer's caregivers on its website. "Try not to ignore the problem. Doing nothing can make things worse."
Why it matters: Biden, 80, is running for a second four-year term as president of the United States. Concerned citizens have repeatedly expressed alarm over the state of his physical and mental health.
• The president suffered a near-fatal fall last month at the Air Force Academy graduation ceremony in Colorado. Falls are the leading cause of injury-related death among Americans over the age of 65.
• In September of 2022, Biden attempted to converse with a congresswoman who died a month earlier. That episode is merely one of the most memorable examples of his innumerable brain-related gaffes.
• Biden may have exacerbated his risk of cognitive decline by neglecting to properly treat his longstanding sleep apnea, the Washington Free Beacon reported in June.
• Tucker Carlson heard members of Biden's family say "out loud that he had dementia," the former Fox News host told journalist Steve Krakauer.
Crucial context: Axios cofounder Jim VandeHei is also prone to fits of rage.
Be smart: Biden is not qualified to serve as commander in chief, and neither is Vice President Kamala Harris. Some of his allies are clearly worried he might die or become too incoherent to function on the campaign trail, which is why we are seeing leaks about his (probably) dementia-related temper, along with op-eds in the Atlantic urging the president to step aside in 2024.
Bottom line: Uh oh.
DOJ Indicts Gal Luft for FARA Violations with CEFC, Which Bankrolled Bidens
The Justice Department indicted the “missing” Biden family whistleblower, Dr. Gal Luft, for failing to register as a foreign agent of CEFC China Energy Co, the same company for which Hunter Biden worked.
Luft, who claims he is a fall guy, is a fugitive after skipping bail in Cyprus in April while awaiting extradition. Authorities charged Luft with conspiring to sell Chinese weapons to the UAE, Kenya, and Libya, violating the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA), and making a false statement.
Luft claims he gave the incriminating evidence of Biden family wrongdoing about CEFC to the FBI and the DOJ in Brussels at a March 2019 meeting. He alleges U.S. authorities covered up the interview.
On Monday, the Justice Department brought multiple charges against Luft, including not registering as a foreign agent of CEFC, a FARA violation, page 21 of the inducement shows:
GAL LUFT, the defendant, and others known and unknown, at least one of whom is expected to be brought to and arrested in the Southern District of New York, willfully and knowingly did combine, conspire, confederate, and agree together and with each other to commit an offense against the United States, to wit, to knowingly and willfully act as an agent of a foreign principal, namely, CEFC, CEFC China, and CC-1, without registering with the Attorney General, in violation of FARA, 22 U.S.C. §§ 612 and 618.
Hunter Biden worked closely with CEFC. In fact, the “chairman” of CEFC, Ye Jianming, paid Hunter Biden a $1 million retainer fee for legal services in 2017. Hunter also received a large diamond from Ye in February 2017 worth an estimated $80,000.
Suspicious activity reports obtained by House Republicans show Hunter Biden’s business partner, Rob Walker, received a $3 million wire transfer from CEFC in 2017. In turn, four Biden family members — Hunter, James, Hallie, and an unidentified “Biden” — received a collective $1.3 million cut from the $3 million wire transfer.
In addition, Breitbart News reported the Biden family business received a total of $5.1 million through multiple accounts within days of Hunter Biden’s WhatsApp messages to CEFC.
Shortly after demanding to be paid by an associate of CEFC with President Joe Biden “sitting” next to him, Hunter Biden asked a second CEFC business associate, Gongwen “Kevin” Dong, for $10 million in another WhatsApp text, noting the Biden family is best at “doing exactly what the chairman wants.”
“Very simple,” Hunter wrote. “10 M per annum budget to use to further the interest of the JV. This move to 5M is completely new to me and is not acceptable obviously.”
“If you think this is about money it’s not,” Hunter added. “The Bidens are the best I know at doing exactly what the chairman wants from this partnership … let’s not quibble over peanuts.”
The Biden family’s venture with CEFC is best known for including a stake of “10 held by H for the big guy.” Among others involved in the CEFC venture were James Biden, whistleblower Tony Bobulinski, and Jim Bulger.

YOU REALLY GET THE IDEA OF HOW UTTERLY CORRUPT THE RULING CLASS IS WHEN YOU SEE WHAT JOE BIDEN AND HIS FAMILY OF GAMER LAWYERS HAVE GOTTEN AWAY WITH FOR 50 YEARS!!!
So Trump is to blame for the media's absence of interest in Biden and his scandals?
It is bad enough that Joe Biden blames President Trump for his incompetence and destructive policies.
Trump's Charlottesville comments twisted by Joe Biden and the media
Sure, Donald Trump said there were 'fine people on both sides' but in the next breath he condemned 'neo-Nazis and White nationalists.' Don't leave that out.
Hillary Clinton and the Democratic National Committee created the fictional Russian dossier, and the media and other Democrats spread the lie for years that Trump colluded with Russia. to intentionally mislead the public.
As incomes grew, income inequality fell for the second consecutive year. Between 2017 and 2019, the Gini index of income inequality fell from 0.489 to 0.484. Over the same two-year period, the share of income held by the top 20 percent fell by 0.4 percentage points.Incomes grew across the distribution, and poverty plummeted as a result. The official poverty rate fell to an all-time record low of 10.5 percent in 2019. Over 4 million people were lifted out of poverty between 2018 and 2019 for a 1.3 percentage point decrease. This was the largest reduction in poverty in over 50 years.
Minority groups led the way in poverty alleviation. Compared to the overall poverty rate reduction of 1.3 percentage points, black poverty fell by 2.0 percentage points, Hispanic poverty fell by 1.8 percentage points, and Asian poverty fell by 2.8 percentage points (see Figure 2). The poverty rate fell to an all-time record low for every race and ethnic group in 2019. Notably, the black poverty rate fell below 20 percent for the first time in history.
The media and other Democrats have had endless witch hunts about Trump's tax returns but have little to no interest in the Bidens' taxes despite knowing how they set up many shell corporations that seemed to have no business activity other than accepting and distributing kickbacks to many members of the Biden family. They don't want to see if Joe got any of the money.
- Should he have ignored all the states that changed their election rules in 2020 without legislative approval?
- Should he have ignored the election rigging by Mark Zuckerburg?
- Should he ignore the clear politicization of the Justice Department?
- Should he ignore the different treatment of Biden and Hillary on classified documents?
Justice Department Charges Think Tank Official Who Gave FBI Info on Hunter Biden
Gal Luft claims Biden DOJ is ‘trying to bury’ him
The Biden Justice Department on Monday unsealed charges against an Israeli-American think tank official who provided the FBI with information in 2019 about the Biden family’s business dealings with China.
Federal prosecutors in Manhattan accused Gal Luft of covertly working for China and attempting to facilitate arms sales to Iran, Libya, and Qatar. Luft, the co-director of the Maryland-based Institute for the Analysis of Global Security, was arrested in Cyprus on Feb. 17, but skipped bail while facing extradition to the United States. U.S. Attorney Damian Williams and Justice Department assistant attorney general for national security Matthew Olsen, both Biden appointees, announced the charges against Luft.
Luft said after his arrest earlier this year that the Justice Department was targeting him because he provided information about the Bidens to the FBI and Justice Department in 2019.
"DOJ is trying to bury me to protect Joe, Jim & Hunter Biden," said Luft, who met with FBI agents and Justice Department officials in Brussels.
Luft’s allegations come as IRS whistleblowers accuse the Justice Department of stymying an investigation into Hunter Biden’s foreign business dealings. Hunter Biden entered a plea deal with federal prosecutors on misdemeanor tax charges for failure to pay taxes in 2017 and 2018. IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley, who worked on the investigation, said his team was prevented from fully investigating the sources of Hunter Biden’s income. Shapley also said that the FBI had national security concerns about Hunter Biden’s ties to CEFC China Energy, a Chinese energy conglomerate with extensive ties to Luft.
The Washington Free Beacon reported in March that Luft worked closely with CEFC China Energy, which gave his think tank $350,000 in grants. CEFC paid Hunter Biden at least $6 million in 2017 and 2018. The firm, which has suspected ties to Chinese military intelligence, gave Hunter Biden at least $5 million for business consulting, and another $1 million to provide legal services to Patrick Ho, a CEFC executive who was indicted for trying to bribe two African officials for oil rights.
Both Hunter Biden and Luft worked closely with Ho, who was convicted on bribery charges. Hunter Biden referred to Ho as the "fucking spy master of China" in audio recordings in 2018. Luft submitted a letter of support for Ho at his federal trial. A former employee of Ho’s told the Free Beacon that he was frequently accompanied by Luft at CEFC’s offices in New York.
House Oversight Committee chairman James Comer (R., Ky.), who is investigating the Biden family’s business ventures, has sought interviews with Luft. He said last week he plans to ask the FBI for documents related to Luft’s interviews with the FBI, which were conducted in Brussels.
Prosecutors charged Luft with violating the Foreign Agents Registration Act and Arms Export Control Act. They allege he violated the foreign agent law by commissioning articles in Chinese state media from a former U.S. government official.
While the official is not identified in the indictment, Luft recently said that he paid former CIA director James Woolsey to write opinion articles for China Daily. Woolsey was a founder of Luft’s think tank and spoke at numerous events with Patrick Ho, the CEFC China Energy executive.
Deep State involvement went deep in January 6 events
“But to the extent there’s a suggestion, for example, that the FBI’s confidential human sources or FBI employees in someway instigated or orchestrated Jan 6th, that’s categorically false.” - Christopher Wray
How extensive was Deep State involvement in the January 6 “insurrection?”
The January 6 “insurrection” has been a propaganda bonanza for the Deep State. Would it have required exceptional foresight to predict the outcome of Trump supporters’ march on Washington. President Trump had held dozens of peaceful rallies during his campaign. Now his supporters had gone berserk. Or had they? Several anti-Trump groups had an interest in seeing violence on Jan 6. Radical leftist groups like Antifa and BLM would be vindicated to an extent. The Democrat party would gain support as a result of the violence. And even those federal government agencies controlled by the Deep State would benefit.
Christopher Wray claimed that FBI agents, "have not to date seen any evidence of anarchist violent extremists or people subscribing to Antifa in connection with the 6th.” This was an excellent opportunity for radical groups to discredit Trump supporters. Contrary to Wray’s claim at least one radical was exposed right from the beginning.
John Sullivan (Jayden X), dressed as a Trump supporter, shouted, “If we don’t get in, we’re going to burn this sh*t down!” as he approached the Capitol.
U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan, who so tenaciously sought to convict former national security adviser Michael Flynn, allowed Sullivan to be released from jail following his arrest. Defendants who peacefully walked around the Capitol building have been charged with “seditious conspiracy” which carries a 20-year prison sentence. Sullivan is presently working for the Ukranian government as some kind of war correspondent.
Democrat party organizations also saw January 6 as an opportunity to discredit Trump. Project Veritas recorded Scott Foval, national field director of Americans United for Change and Robert Creamer, founder of Democracy Advocates and the husband of Rep. Janice D. Schakowsky, Illinois Democrat, discussing their roles in planting paid agitators at campaign events for Donald Trump. Although Creamer stepped down and Foval was fired, that does not mean that they abandoned their efforts to discredit Trump.
One of the reasons the events of January 6 took place was because of an alleged intelligence failure. The impression was given that the government did not have informants among the groups planning to attack the Capitol. In March 2021 Senator Amy Klobuchar told Wray, “There must be moments where you think if we could have known, if we could have infiltrated this group or found out what they were doing. Do you have those moments?” Wray responded, “Absolutely ... we aim to bat a thousand percent and to thwart every attack that is out there ... you can be darn tootin’ that we are focused very, very hard on how we can get better sources, better information, better analysis, so that we can make sure that something like what happened on January 6 never happens again.”
This exchange has been used to suggest that the FBI did not have informants in these groups. It is almost too perfect and was quite possibly rehearsed. Like the 51 intelligence officials who claimed the Hunter laptop “has the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.” This was used to imply that the laptop was Russian disinformation while the officials could later deny that they were claiming it was. The truth is that several law enforcement agencies had dozens of agents and informants among the protesters. Steven Sund, Chief of the Capital Hill told Tucker Carlson the Jan 6 protest was filled with Federal agents.
These agents and informants frequently do not face charges. They are referred to as “unindicted co-conspirators.” According to Revolver News these “unindicted co-conspirators” often “appear to be much more aggressive” than other protesters. This has led Christopher Wray to assert, “the suggestion that the FBI’s confidential human sources or FBI employees in someway instigated or orchestrated Jan 6th, that’s categorically false.” Wray would be more believable if he had a history of providing accurate information to Congress. However, he repeatedly claims he has to be “very careful” about releasing information or he can’t answer because the matter is under investigation.
Initially the government refused to release the video tapes of the incident. They would not even trust their colleagues in the Boston field office . Retired Supervisory Intelligence Analyst George Hill from Boston Field Office testified that he was told by the Washington Field Office that they could not provide Boston with the tapes, “Because there may be’ – may be – ‘UCs,’ undercover officers, ‘or CHSes,’ confidential human sources, ‘on those videos whose identity we need to protect.”
Could these undercover agents be responsible for much of the violence on 6 Jan?
Revolver News details how the more violent plotters in the Gretchen Whitmer “kidnapping” plot (5 of 13) were government informants. The plotter who suggested using a bomb to blow up a bridge as part of that plot was an undercover FBI agent. Tucker Carlson reported that the government's own court filings reveal that enforcement officers participated in the riot, sometimes in violent ways. The New York Times has reported there have been twenty terrorist plots against the U.S. Three of those plots were real; the other 17 were created — and then stopped — by the FBI.
The government knew there would be violence because in many instances they are likely the ones who initiated it. They did nothing to prevent it. Sen. Gary Peters, chair of the Homeland Security Committee said to NBC News: "Given the number of news reports and social media posts indicating violence ahead of Jan. 6, the FBI absolutely should have seen this attack coming and should have informed law enforcement to be ready.” Rep. Eric Swalwell was warned by family and friends there would be violence. He commented, "They didn't have access to intelligence. But they did read the tweets from President Trump and his supporters. This was completely foreseeable.” There are a lot of questions about January 6. No one can say that the government has been open about what transpired. This has resulted in speculation that the government was involved.

JOE IS NOTHING BUT A LYING PARASITE LAWYER!
7 Times Joe Biden Vowed to Restore ‘Integrity’ and ‘Decency’ to White House Before Cocaine Scandal
Seven times before law enforcement found cocaine smuggled into the White House, President Joe Biden promised to restore “integrity” and “decency” to the presidency.
Over the July 4th weekend, officials discovered cocaine stashed in the White House. The Secret Service has yet to reveal its findings of who smuggled the white powdery drug into one of the most secure buildings in the world. And the White House refuses to provide much insight into the growing scandal.
RELATED VIDEO — KJP Refuses to Answer If White House Cocaine Belongs to Bidens, Scolds Reporter:
C-SPANThe White House press team refuses to say whether or not the cocaine belonged to Joe or Hunter Biden, citing campaign law. They refuse to say if the White House will provide transparency on who the Secret Service potentially finds responsible for the drug. They also would not say if the White House supports prosecuting the unknown cocaine White House smuggler.
But before the cocaine scandal arose, Joe Biden and his campaign promised seven times to “restore” “integrity” and “decency” back to the White House. Over and over again, Biden promised to restore the “soul of the nation,” while claiming former President Donald Trump was the antithesis of integrity, decency, and transparency:
1) “It’s time we bring integrity back to the White House,” Biden announced on his Twitter page on August 20, 2020. He then went on to call out former President Trump’s “lack of integrity,” explaining that:
I will put the INTEGRITY of my whole CAREER IN PUBLIC SERVICE to this nation up against Trump’s LACK OF INTEGRITY any day of the week.
2) In October 2020, Biden teamed up with Vice President Kamala Harris in Phoenix to kick off their campaign bus tour, and, as she posted on her Twitter page, “to fight for our democracy and bring integrity back to the White House”:
3) In January 2020, Biden posted a video of an exchange between supporter “Vicky” and himself at a campaign event, along with the quote, “Like Vicky said, we need a president who will restore integrity to the White House.”
4) ABC News proudly posted a picture of Biden on their December 19, 2019, Twitter post along with a quote from Biden prefaced with the statement, “Joe Biden says [Trump’s] impeachment was a ‘constitutional necessity.'” The quote from Biden read:
“We need to restore the integrity of the presidency, of the office of the presidency … my job is to just go out and make the case why [Trump] doesn’t deserve to be president.”
5) In October 2019, Biden stated that, “President Trump is leading the most corrupt administration in modern American history,” and continued, saying:
It’s got to end.
We must restore integrity to our government and ensure our elected officials work for all Americans — not just the powerful.
6) “We need to restore honor and decency to the White House,” Biden said on September 6, 2020:
7) In October 2021, Biden explained:
I ran for president for three reasons: To restore the soul and decency of our country. To rebuild our economy from the bottom up and the middle out. And to help unite our country.
We’re on the right track — but there’s still work to be done.

I’d be inclined to disagree with Don except for one thing: Biden has proven to be a very adept criminal mastermind. For decades, he has funneled millions of dollars to his children and siblings and, especially, to his debauched, deviant son, Hunter.
ANDREA WIDBURG
There it is. That's the issue. To begin, you have the corrupt family Biden. They've been scamming us and our system well for almost fifty years. The man is supposedly worth over 250 million dollars. How is this possible on his salary? It's not. So where did his wealth come from? Not from being a brilliant businessman. DAVID PRENTICE
The book is a devastating chronicle of political corruption. From Ukraine to Mexico to China, Hunter Biden's private correspondence shows how he and his family leveraged his father's position to win high-paying, low-work gigs with shady foreign actors—and how Joe's official actions at times directly benefited his family's financial backers. ALANA GOODMAN
Where there’s smoke, look for fire. Biden came from humble means, never worked in the private sector, but somehow became wildly wealthy. Several of Biden’s family members essentially work in the family business of apparent influence peddling. Does Biden’s frequent refrain, “I never spoke with my son about his overseas business deals” come to mind? It makes one wonder if “never” really means “never!”. Biden has nine relatives receiving millions in foreign cash. What were they talking about when Vice President Biden and his cronies met 80 times at the White House? Veracity is everything when you solicit the public’s trust, and Biden’s persona is wrapped around his supposed trustworthiness. However, the facts here point to a person who uses hyperbole, manipulation, and outright lying to sway public opinion.
ALLAN J FEIFER
Biden, long known as Delaware’s “senator from DuPont,” Biden served on committees that were most sensitive to the interests of the ruling class, including the Judiciary Committee and the Foreign Relations Committee. He supported the repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act in 1999, a milestone in the deregulation of the banks, and other right-wing measures. After nearly four decades in the Senate, Biden became Obama’s vice president, helping to oversee the massive bailout of Wall Street following the 2008 financial crisis and the subsequent restructuring of class relations to benefit the rich. That included the bailout of General Motors and Chrysler, based on a 50 percent cut in the pay of all newly hired autoworkers.
Biden Knew about Hunter’s Foreign Business Deals, Took $5 Million Bribe as V.P., Six in Ten Voters Say
A new survey of U.S. voters reveals that six in ten U.S. voters believe President Joe Biden was involved in his son Hunter’s dubious foreign business dealings, corroborating similar recent poll findings.
Fully 58% say it’s at least “somewhat” likely that “Joe Biden was involved in his son Hunter’s foreign business deals,” including 44% who call it “very” likely, according to results of a national Rasmussen survey of likely voters released on Thursday, July 6.
At least sixty percent of voters in all demographic categories – except Democrats, Blacks and those earning at least $200,000 – believe it’s likely that, as vice president, Joe Biden was involved in his son’s foreign business deals that delivered millions to members of the Biden family.
The results mirror those of a Harris poll conducted last month, in which 57% of U.S. registered voters said they “think Joe Biden took a $5 million bribe when he was Vice President.” What’s more, a majority said they don’t believe the FBI is fully investigating the corruption allegations against Pres. Biden:
- 57% of voters said Joe Biden took $5 million bribe as vice president.
- Two-thirds (66%) of voters said Joe Biden lied by claiming he never discussed Hunter Biden’s foreign business dealings with his son.
- 55% said the FBI is “not really investigating” the possibility that Joe Biden took a $5 million bribe.
Although Republican and Democrat voters greatly disagreed, six in ten Independent voters said they think Biden took $5 million in bribes:
- 57% of Independents said Joe Biden took $5 million bribe as vice president.
- Two-thirds (68%) of Independent voters said Joe Biden lied by claiming he never discussed Hunter Biden’s foreign business dealings with his son.
- 50% of Independent voters said the FBI is “not really investigating” the possibility that Joe Biden took a $5 million bribe.
Mark Levin: This is Biden's 'rogue operation' Loving Dad Joe Engages Son in Life of Crime
The propaganda ministry is in full spin mode, trying to explain why Joe Biden is parading around the world with Hunter in tow. The two are together for state dinners, overseas junkets, and weekends at Camp David. As the narrative goes, Hunter is a troubled man, victimized by the demon of addiction. Any appearance of presidential impropriety is simply a loving father concerned about his son, holding him close to keep him out of trouble.
I say hogwash.
Organized crime bosses protect themselves from legal jeopardy by insulating themselves from the dirty work. They use underlings to sell their product, collect the money, launder the money, and if necessary take the fall. If a legal price is to be paid, it's paid by the expendables. The boss keeps them quiet with hush money, legal assistance, and witness intimidation.
Does anyone believe that a cartel boss helps an arrested underling out of love? Nope. He does it in service to his own selfish interests — which brings me to Hunter Biden's loving father, Joe.
We've learned a great deal about the Biden family business in the last three years from abandoned laptops, congressional investigations, and federal whistleblowers.
We know that Hunter was working on a deal with a Chinese energy company in which 10 percent would go to the "big guy." We learned from Hunter's business partner, Tony Bobulinski, that the "big guy" was Hunter's code name for his dad, Joe Biden. Oddly, Bobulinski was never interviewed by Biden's consigliere or his crew, the Department of Justice.
What was Hunter selling to the Chinese? We've learned that from WhatsApp text messages to Henry Zhao, the group chairman of China's Harvest Fund Management. He texted:
The Bidens are the best I know at doing exactly what the chairman wants from this [partnership].
Oddly, Hunter's communications with the Chinese never discuss any product or service other than access to Joe. I'm sure what "the Bidens are the best ... at" doesn't involve anything harmful to America — like granting his pal Xi Jinping permission to fly reconnaissance balloons over America.
But Hunter was involved in not only the sales side of the family business. He also did the dirty work of collections. In another message to Zhao, he texted:
I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled. Tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand, and now means tonight. And, Z, if I get a call or text from anyone involved in this other than you, Zhang, or the chairman, I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not following my direction.
That was Hunter Biden giving a Chinese businessman, with ties to Chinese intelligence, an "or else" if they didn't pay up. Five million bucks arrived in the next few days.
But the Chinese weren't the only clients of Biden Inc. They also did extensive work (I'm using the term loosely) with Burisma in Ukraine. A whistleblower has come forward identifying evidence in FBI possession that the Bidens were working a side deal, while Joe was the vice president, to help Burisma Holdings out of some legal difficulties.
It seems Burisma needed a Ukrainian investigation to go away. Joe helped by threatening to withhold a billion dollars of U.S. aid if the Ukrainians didn't fire the prosecutor investigating Burisma. The Ukrainians complied, the investigation was terminated, and Hunter and Joe each received $5 million.
The whistleblower claims that the president of Burisma told him that he has audio recordings of his conversation with Joe — presumably as insurance to make sure the bribed stay bribed. We know that Joe did the deed, because he bragged about it at a Council for Foreign Relations meeting — on video. Maybe now we have a better idea about why he did the deed.
The Bidens created a vast network of shell companies to launder the money received. But ill gotten gains are still gains, and subject to taxation. Therefore, the IRS was following the money.
Investigators had to work their way through the maze of shell companies, which received money, divided it up, moved it around, and eventually deposited it in Biden family bank accounts. The investigation was a time-consuming process of subpoenaing records, fighting legal resistance, and moving to the next link in the money chain — hoping to reach the end before the statute of limitations expired. The investigators almost pulled it off — until they were told to stand down, ignore leads associated Joe Biden or the "big guy," and let Hunter off with a couple of misdemeanors for defrauding taxpayers of millions of dollars.
This is all ample evidence that in the Biden family business, Joe had the product, and Hunter took care of sales, collections, and distribution of the proceeds.
Does Joe love Hunter? Maybe so, but demonstrably not as much as Joe loves Joe.
Would a father who loves a son more than himself involve that son in a criminal enterprise that could land him in jail for decades?
Would a father who's concerned about his troubled son facilitate his access to easy money for drugs, strippers, and hookers?
Wouldn't a loving father try to separate his troubled son from the influences that corrupted him — rather than increase his exposure to temptations at state dinners, West Wing meetings, and overseas travel to meet with foreign businessmen?
Wouldn't a concerned father be able to keep drugs away from his addicted son in the most secure building in the world — the White House? However, we've learned that the White House was evacuated because a bag of cocaine was found in the West Wing. We've also learned that the Bidens have directed the White House staff to "lay off" Hunter Biden. Just how extensive was that directive? Did it include "laying off" stopping the first son from snorting cocaine in the West Wing?
Those are rhetorical questions. We know the answers, so spare me the "loving father" nonsense. Joe is the head of a criminal enterprise, selling government influence to the highest bidder, with complete disregard for America's interests. He used his son and other family members to do the dirty work of
- selling the product (influence),
- collecting the proceeds, and
- laundering the money for use by the first family.
While they did that, Joe smiled for the cameras and worked to maintain the façade of returning normalcy to the White House.
But Hunter is no criminal mastermind, and he left far too much evidence of family misdeeds for the public to ignore. Now that Hunter has been caught, Joe is suddenly concerned about his troubled son? Baloney. Joe is running interference with the DOJ and keeping Hunter close to keep him quiet.
Nothing Joe Biden is doing is being done out of affection for his son. It's being done to save his own skin. He's doing what any other mob boss would do with an underling when the truth starts bubbling to the surface: keep him quiet at all costs. Some loving father.

The Liberal Media Need Shock Treatment
We hear it all the time and it’s true: “How would the liberal media be treating this story if it was a Republican instead of a Democrat?”
- The IRS whistleblowers in the Hunter Biden matter are ignored by the liberal media.
- Biden steals thousands of classified documents -- without the authority to declassify them -- when he was a senator and vice-president and the story disappears.
- FBI insiders bravely reveal the blatant pro-Democratic bias of the organization and their testimony is sloughed off.
- Joe Biden commits one embarrassing verbal gaffe after another, demonstrating an unarguable diminution of mental acuity, and the video clips are nowhere to be seen on the mainstream stations.
- James Comer finds one ironclad, tangible example after another of inappropriate, even illegal, financial dealings by the entire Biden family and Comer’s investigation is dismissed by the liberal media as unfounded hearsay.
- Talk of the 2016 presidential election being stolen by President Trump from Hillary is hailed as heroic, patriotic protest, but presenting the mountains of indisputable evidence of 2020 election fraud committed by the Democrats against President Trump gets you branded as a traitor by the mainstream media.
This list of examples could go on and on, but for the sake of brevity and current relevance, we’ll leave it there. The mainstream media is totally biased in favor of the Democrats. The networks, CNN, MSNBC, NPR, late-night television, the major newspapers, and PBS are all vessels of liberal thought. The editors and correspondents at these organizations actively promote liberal positions and intentionally cast anything conservative in a negative light, especially if it has anything even remotely to do with President Trump.
None of this is new. It’s been going on for quite a while. Some people say that the specific event where the media turned and became liberally biased was in June 1987. This was when the painfully unintellectual Democratic bomb-thrower Ted Kennedy -- desperately seeking some small measure of self-justification after a disappointing political career totally bereft of any significant accomplishments whatsoever -- took to the Senate floor and tore into President Reagan’s Supreme Court nominee Robert Bork with a totally unfounded, hateful, cliché-ridden screed attacking his character and his qualifications. It was all false, but the networks jumped on it and replayed it endlessly, until even the average casually attentive voter had a negative opinion of Bork’s nomination and he was defeated.
The bigger issue is can anything be done to change the liberal media’s behavior. That’s the question. So far, the answer has been “no.”
There is a conservative organization called the Media Research Center that bills itself as “America’s Media Watchdog.” They are a good organization that does a lot of very valuable work. By far their biggest contribution to the news/media environment is the research and record-keeping functions they perform. They maintain innumerable (probably in the millions) files of media occurrences dating back decades and they are constantly monitoring the news and chronicling the coverage. When you see a report on TV that the “coverage of President Trump a month before the election was 91% negative” or that the “major networks devoted only 53 seconds of coverage to the Hunter laptop story,” chances are that was the MRC at work.
But unfortunately, The MRC is an after-the-fact “Ah ha!” organization. They do a great job of reporting and detailing out exactly what crimes the liberal media have committed, after they’ve already committed them. They will not and cannot go after the liberal media and get them to change their behavior before their next Kennedyesque transgression. So we are left with the Joy Reids, Jake Tappers, Joy Behars, and Jim Acostas continually spewing their insulting, tilted lies, totally uninhibited by any thought of being called to account for their behavior.
The key to behavior modification is negative, painful consequences. If the subject experiences a painful rebuke on a repeated basis, they learn to not continue that behavior. If a dog messes in the house and is met with a rolled-up magazine across the snoot every time, it soon learns not to mess in the house. If a lab rat is given the choice of getting a food pellet from two dispensers, one of which gives out a sharp electrical shock, the rat will learn in very short order not to use that dispenser and go to the other instead.
Who is handing out shocks to the liberal media for their repeatedly intentional dishonest reporting? Who is holding them to account when they refuse to cover a major story that redounds negatively to Democrats?
The feeling here is that unless specific reporters can be individually humiliated and made to feel distinct personal embarrassment, they will never change their behavior. Being called out by a conservative evening cable host doesn’t do any good, because the viewing audience is too small and that’s like preaching to the choir anyway.
Maybe a Kevin McCarthy or a Ted Cruz could hold a weekly press conference and list, by correspondent name and example, that week’s worst offenders, the biggest lies, the worst omissions. But this kind of plan runs the very real risk of not being covered by the liberal media, who are highly unlikely to report on bad acts by other “teammates.”
It’s a vicious cycle. The liberal media lie about conservatives, refuse to cover stories that are negative to Democrats, and therefore the average casually attentive swing voter never knows the real story. It’s a nice racket they’ve arranged for themselves. The liberal media rats have unfettered access to all the pain-free food pellet dispensers, without any shocks in sight.

Exclusive – Ex-DNI John Ratcliffe Slams Two-Tiered Justice System: ‘They Need to Protect Hunter Biden to Protect Joe”
Former Director of National Intelligence (DNI) John Ratcliffe in an exclusive interview with SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Saturday slammed the Justice Department’s light-handed treatment of Hunter Biden versus former President Donald Trump, suggesting it was to protect President Joe Biden.
“When we talk about why the Justice Department [and] the FBI are doing these crazy gymnastics to protect Hunter Biden, they need to protect Hunter Biden to protect Joe Biden,” Ratcliffe told host Breitbart News Washington Bureau Chief Matthew Boyle.
“Because I think if Hunter … the saying goes, a crack addict would sell out their mother to save themselves — and in this case, it would be his father. And I think that that’s a part of what we’re seeing here,” he said.
Ratcliffe said it was “not just Hunter Biden” who was receiving money from shady foreign business partners.
“It’s not just the president’s son, it’s the president’s brother. It’s the president’s daughter in law, it’s the President’s grandchildren — somewhere between $10 [million] and $40 million from entities in different foreign jurisdictions [to] include the CCP. These foreign transactions for which the Biden family has provided no products and no services,” he said.
Ratcliffe noted that it took five years for the Justice Department to investigate Hunter Biden, only returning two misdemeanors and a diversion on a gun violation, while it took the Justice Department only seven months to charge Trump over his handling of alleged classified documents.
“At the very same time, the very same Justice Department takes seven months to charge former President Trump — the President’s primary political opponent — with crimes that would put him away for 400 years. You line that up side-by-side, and it just sort of underscores the reality of what we’re talking about,” he said.
Ratcliffe said according to statistics gathered by Right on Crime, the Biden Justice Department has charged 4,000 users in possession (or people using a controlled substance possessing a firearm illegally), and only once has it recommended pretrial diversion.

C-SPAN“Guess who that is? That’s Hunter Biden,” Ratcliffe said.
He also said the DOJ in its entire history has offered pretrial diversion in less than one percent of 189,000 cases for “restricted persons in possession,” which includes users of a controlled substance, felons in possession, and illegal aliens.
But, he said, “I think the more staggering statistic is only one out of 4,000 times, has this very same Justice Department shown this type of leniency and it’s for the president’s son.”
He contrasted that leniency with the fervor with which the DOJ pursued Trump for “Russian collusion” despite receiving intelligence that it was a smear by Hillary Clinton to hurt him him during the 2016 election.
“When I was in Congress, when we were asking questions about potential FISA abuse [and] spying on the Trump campaign, we were all told that was a bunch of nonsense, it was ridiculous … we were conspiracy theorists. But when I became DNI and had access to our very best intelligence, one of the first things I said was, ‘Well, I want to see everything we have on Russian collusion,'” he said.
“I learned that we didn’t have any intelligence on Russian collusion, because there wasn’t any what we had was intelligence — that the Hillary Clinton campaign created the Russia collusion hoax … what John Durham called the ‘Clinton intelligence plan,'” he added.
“There’s been so much talk about this perception of a two-tier system of justice, but it’s not a perception. It’s a reality,” he said.

GEORGE SOROS IS ONE OF BIDEN'S CRONY BILLIONAIRES FOR OPEN BORDERS
Sam Bankman-Fried Aimed to Outpace George Soros as Largest Democrat Donor
Even Democrats can see what's wrong with Joe Biden
I was raised in a prominent Democrat family after WWII. Americans had to adjust to change, including loved ones lost, returning veterans, employment, and family life. Citizens turned to the good and great about their country. Political leaders from both parties solved problems, and consensus was the measure of success. Many called this "the Greatest Generation."
I am confident that the historic roots of the Democrat party — "God, Family, and Country" — contributed to our nation's recovery. But, like me, many of what I call traditional Democrats have seen their party leave them.
We only need to read the massive negative statistics that prove Americans know something is wrong — a nation being torn apart and divided. In today's world, we see many names that define groups who use hate to achieve power. Examples include communist, socialist, Marxist, progressives, LGBTQ+, religion and family haters. I could go on. These forces have coalesced, knowing they must destroy America's culture and identity to achieve their goals. This change has happened over years, but it needed a special leader, someone who would sanction the society-killers and infiltrate every aspect of families, religion, education, parental rights, government, the press, and social Media.
Joe Biden was elected in 2020 and was quickly identified as ideal. Biden had made the choice to leave his historic Democrat roots and become a Progressive. His background was perfect: plagiarism, habit of misleading facts and content, dysfunctional family and father, sexual perversion, questionable religious values, a career of telling stories that aren't true, and a protective press.
Because of Biden's age, questions have been raised about whether Biden is capable of understanding his actions. I am reminded of this biblical thought: "What comes out of the mouth comes from the heart; the words you speak will reflect what's in your heart."
Joe's mouth has now propelled him to spokesperson for the liberal left. Biden has fallen under control of storm troopers who hate the country and religion. They have their own ideas or philosophies on government power and control. They show contempt for the two-party system, and those challenging their views are called racist or white supremacist.
Understanding how President Joe Biden operates starts with noting his oath of office — to "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States." This is a bedrock principle of constitutional law. But Biden has manipulated laws to assist the storm troopers and further their agenda. Joe Biden has empowered society-destroyers to erode our country's belief in God, Family, and Country.
George Washington stated his conviction that "religion and morality are the essential pillars of civil society." Let's look at Joe Biden's commitment to religion and morality. My Bible understanding and observation have convinced me that Biden is not someone who shows respect for his religion, which is to say the Catholic Church's moral code, and natural law. He is the biblical example of one who beats his chest — "look, I am a Catholic, I take communion" — but is a heretic and answers only to his own religion and god.
Simple examples demonstrate this disturbing ideology. God states, "Honor your father and mother, and children, give your parents love, obedience, and respect." Activist followers, perverts, and educators hate parental rights and think the family is an obstacle. The attack continues with abortion and government agencies directed to hurt children physically, emotionally, and physiologically, forcing confusing sexual content on them to get them to doubt how God made them. Biden himself shows great support for the transgender community while opposing school choice and improved education to cultivate the God-given talent of students in black communities. I am confident that Joe Biden will have to answer to a higher power for his actions.
Members of Congress must face the reality that they may be puppets for these society-killers. American voters, especially traditional Democrats and those who vote their party affiliation, must also realize they could be puppets.
There must be a new beginning. Our wonderful country is under a vicious attack, and all must fight to preserve the right to "life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness" whose protection was promised by our Founding Fathers.

Life, Liberty & Levin 7/02/23 FULL END SHOW HD | FOX BREAKING NEWS TRUMP Jul 2, 2023 VIDEOGingrich: Biden Administration ‘Enormously Dangerous’ to America’s Survival
During this week’s broadcast of Fox News Channel’s “Sunday Morning Futures,” former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich called the Biden administration “dangerous” to the country’s survival.
According to the former House Speaker, Biden was acting as an “enormous asset” for Chinese communism.
“Newt, let me get your take on the field,” host Maria Bartiromo said. “Who has what it takes in 2024 to deal with communist China? And what do you think this meeting with Janet Yellen tells us?”
“I mean, the Biden administration is either corrupt or lives in a fantasyland,” Gingrich replied. In either case, it’s dangerous to the United States. If Yellen actually believes what she’s saying, she’s in a total fantasyland. And when I watch, for example, the secretary of state, who’d been paid, I think, over a million dollars a year by the University of Pennsylvania with money which I think came directly from communist China, I’m not particularly reassured.”
“So I think, whether it’s on a fantasy front or a corruption front, the Biden administration is enormously dangerous to the survival of America and an enormous asset in the creation of a Chinese communist dominant system,” he added. “I think it’s enormously difficult.”

DeSantis: ‘The Media Does Not Want Me to Be the Nominee’
Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL), a candidate for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, said on this week on FNC’s “Sunday Morning Futures” that the media do not want him to be the nominee.
Anchor Maria Bartiromo said, “What’s going on with your campaign? There was a lot of optimism about you running for president earlier in the year.”
She asked, “What happened?!”
DeSantis said, “Maria, These are narratives. The media does not want me to be the nominee. I think that’s very, very clear. Why? Because they know I’ll beat Biden. But even more importantly, they know I will actually deliver on all these things.”
He continued, “We’ve had incredible support in the early states, building an organization, signing up the key people that you need to be able to comp,ete in a place like Iowa. We just launched our Mamas movement. My wife was in Iowa with Governor Kim Reynolds launching that. Parents, and particularly moms, I think are going to be the secret weapon both in this primary and in the general election. Nobody has been a better champion for those folks than me.”
DeSantis added, “I never expected to just snap fingers and all of a sudden, you know, you win seven months before anyone happens. You got to earn it and you got to work. And it requires a lot of toil and tears and sweat. And we’re going to do that.”

HOW MANY HOMELESS AMERICANS HAVE IT SO GOOD???
Exclusive: Venezuelan Migrant Living Good Life at New York City Taxpayers’ Expense
Danny, a Venezuelan migrant who recently arrived in the “Big Apple,” is beyond surprised with the accommodations and benefits provided to him. He crossed the Rio Grande in May near Brownsville, Texas, after a grueling trek through Panama, Central America, and Mexico.
Now, Danny told Breitbart Texas he has a clean hotel room, a New York City identification card, free health care and prescription benefits, and recently found a job at a cleaning company. All at the expense of New York City taxpayers.
The video shows the city-provided hotel room where Danny and another migrant currently live. He recently began working for a residential/commercial cleaning company and works four days weekly. Despite not having a work authorization card allowing him to legally work, or a New York driver’s license, his employer hired him and allows him to drive a company vehicle into New Jersey on workdays. The video shows Danny’s drive to work across the George Washington Bridge over the Hudson River.
Danny’s journey to New York began in early May when he was forced out of a migrant camp when members of the violent Gulf Cartel burned an encampment he was living in on the Mexican bank of the Rio Grande. Danny told Breitbart Texas of the incident in Brownsville and provided video footage of the camp. He arrived in Texas before the end of the Title 42 protocol.
Danny told Breitbart Texas he traveled from Brownsville to Dallas on a bus trip that cost him $80.00. From there, he and several Columbian migrants managed to scrape up the funds needed to fly into New York City. With no friends or relatives in the United States, Danny said he made his way to a local homeless shelter once he arrived.
The shelter life was chaotic, and for 15 days, Danny says he did his best to avoid any issues with other residents. On the 15th day, he was told he could move to a city-funded hotel in the Bronx. Danny has been at the hotel since mid-May, saying the accommodation is beyond anything he could have imagined.
Contrary to reports that describe drug use and violence in some of the New York City hotels used to house migrants, Danny says that is not the case where he is staying.
“We have more than 15 Army soldiers that help with security and hand out food to us when we get hungry, there is plenty of food available all day and our rooms are cleaned every morning,” he told Breitbart Texas. Danny says laundry service and cable television at the hotel are free as well. All of this is provided by the taxpayers of New York City.
Danny was released by the Border Patrol shortly after his crossing. He explained to Breitbart Texas that he doesn’t have a set date to report to ICE to begin his formal asylum process. His case paperwork only says “TBD” on the date, time, and place line on his Notice to Appear (NTA).
The Border Patrol resorted to using the “To Be Determined” language on the NTA to speed the releases from some migrant detention facilities. Setting precise dates, times, and places on the form requires timely coordination with ICE to receive the required docket information for the notice.
Danny says he has a common-law wife in Colombia that he plans to help cross into the United States using the CBP One application soon. “I can fly her from Bogota, Colombia to Monterrey, Mexico, for less than $300. Hopefully, she will be here soon and get the CBP One appointment fast,” he emphasized.
Danny says he must wait at least six months after he formally applies for asylum before he is able to legally work so his employer agreed to pay him in cash. He told Breitbart Texas many of the migrants that live in the hotel have found underground employment in restaurants, small businesses, and nearby homes where they clean and care for children. “Finding a job here was easier than I thought. They have great confidence in me where I work and even allow me to drive the work truck,” he told Breitbart Texas.
Danny proudly showed Breitbart Texas a copy of his newly issued city identification card and his health care cards issued by Molina Health of New York. The health plan provided by the city affords Danny medical, prescription, dental, and vision services. The plan requires no monthly premiums, no co-pays, and offers prescriptions to “Essential Plan” holders at a cost of $1 for generic medications and $3 for named brand drugs.
Danny provided photos of the food supplies available for the migrants at the hotel and one of the Army National Guard soldiers moving food into a refrigerator for use by the migrants.
Danny says most people in Venezuela earn less than the equivalent of $50.00 per month. He says he now earns double that amount in a single day. He says he is surprised and grateful for the support he has been provided and hopes one day to be able to move from the hotel when he is legally able to enter the workforce.
The cost to provide services to the migrants in New York City is staggering with one recent estimate of $4.2 billion through July 2024, according to a February New York Post report. Adams has repeatedly asked the Biden Administration to reimburse the city for migrant care expenses hoping to pass some of the costs onto U.S. taxpayers.
In response to Adam’s pleas, $135 million from the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) Shelter Services Program has been doled out to the city in recent months.
