WELL, WE KNOW WHICH SIDE 'PINKER' BIDEN IS ON!
TikTok To Sponsor Journalism Conference Amid Espionage and Propaganda Allegations
TikTok is sponsoring a journalism conference for a media watchdog group that aims to "fortify journalism's role in a free society," even as the social media giant comes under fire for helping China spy on journalists and disseminate pro-Beijing propaganda.
The Poynter Institute, which operates the liberal fact-checking site PolitiFact, is organizing GlobalFact 10, which will take place in Seoul starting June 27. TikTok is one of the corporate sponsors for the three-day "global fact-checking summit" and is sponsoring a pre-event cocktail reception, according to an itinerary of the summit.
TikTok executives will speak on panels about the company's efforts to counter disinformation on its platform. Its "publisher education team" will hold a "fireside chat" to teach journalists "best practices for building a TikTok presence and creating engaging content."
TikTok, which is owned by Chinese firm ByteDance, is sponsoring the event as it tries to win allies in its fight against a U.S. ban over its ties to China. American officials say the video app poses a national security threat because the Chinese government could easily use TikTok to spy on its users and push pro-Beijing propaganda to American audiences. TikTok, which has hired an army of lobbyists, has so far avoided a ban, thanks in large part to reluctance from Democrats who see the site as a political asset.
The Poynter summit, which will be attended by Washington Post fact-checker Glenn Kessler, will give TikTok and other tech companies an opportunity to promote their platforms and tout their fight against disinformation.
Five TikTok executives, including the company's global policy lead for harmful misinformation, will conduct a June 29 seminar on TikTok's "approach to countering misinformation." Members of TikTok’s "publisher education team" will also appear at a seminar with Poynter Institute executive Alex Mahadevan on the issue of "building a TikTok presence."
It's a remarkable arrangement for a media watchdog that claims to be a champion for "freedom of expression, civil dialogue, and compelling journalism that helps citizens participate in healthy democracies."
The Justice Department is investigating ByteDance after employees at the company obtained location data on two American journalists who reported about the company's links to the Chinese government.
And a former ByteDance executive has alleged that Chinese officials have "supreme access" to TikTok's algorithm. The former employee, Yintao Yu, claimed in a lawsuit that a special unit of Chinese Communist Party members at ByteDance oversees the content on TikTok in order to advance "core Communist values." Yu claims to have witnessed the ByteDance team promoting anti-Japanese content and demoting posts that support pro-democracy protests in Hong Kong.
It is unclear how much money TikTok is giving Poynter for the conference, but TikTok has been a major funder of the media think tank for a number of years. According to Poynter's website, TikTok has donated at least $50,000 to the think tank. Other major funders include Facebook, Microsoft, AARP, and the philanthropic networks of Democratic donors Pierre Omidyar and Craig Newmark.
TikTok's donations to Poynter go to help PolitiFact "continue to fact-check elected officials and hold government officials accountable," according to PolitiFact's website. Conservatives have criticized PolitiFact over its perceived liberal bias.
The fact-check site was itself fact-checked last month after it defended teachers' union boss Randi Weingarten over her support for school lockdowns during the coronavirus pandemic. A Washington Free Beacon analysis found that the vast majority of PolitiFact's fact-check articles were aimed at Republicans. And in 2021, PolitiFact retracted an article that dismissed as "inaccurate and ridiculous" the theory that coronavirus originated in a Chinese medical lab.
Poynter and TikTok did not respond to requests for comment.

HAVE YOU NOTICED POS BIDEN ALWAYS HAS GOOD RELATIONS WITH DICTATORS WHO HAVE TUCKED A BUCK OR TWO DOWN HUNTER'S SHORTS???
“They take kickbacks from businesses and from other dictators. They use the official functions of their government to funnel cash to themselves. They don’t bother to hide the fruits of this,” Carlson added. “They live in garish mansions, with big lawns far from the teeming cities, even as their own citizens languish in growing poverty in some cases, literally living in tents on the street.
Instead, the Biden family name has really stood for only two things: buffoonery and corruption. For fifty years, Joe Biden has managed to hold onto some slice of power in D.C. as a senator, vice president, and Oval Office stooge not because he is renowned for his erudition or virtue but rather because his doltish behavior and venal character make him ideal for others to control. Perhaps no other Washington relic has accomplished so little for the American people over such a prolonged government career or managed to harness those defects for lucrative advancement more successfully than China Joe.

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.

JOE BIDEN is known as a serial liar, a "public servant" who has somehow managed to accrue tremendous wealth, a race-baiting opportunist, a Catholic-in-name-only, and a bought-and-paid-for politician in bed with criminal cartels and foreign foes. In another era, Joe Biden would have been run out of his country much the same way Benedict Arnold was two and a half centuries ago; in an era when integrity, honor, fortitude, fidelity, and grit have been jettisoned for immorality, unscrupulousness, weakness, betrayal, and craven pliability, however, he is elevated to king sleazeball in a city drowning in sleaze.

China ‘Very Likely’ Exploiting Border Chaos To Sneak Military Operatives Into US, House Homeland Security Chair Warns
June 15, 2023China is likely using the chaos at the southern border to send military personnel into the United States, Rep. Mark Green (R., Tenn.) announced Wednesday.
The House Homeland Security Committee chairman in a press conference said that many of the Chinese nationals apprehended at the border have "known ties to the PLA." Green claims to have obtained this information from a border patrol sector chief, and says he expects a classified briefing on the matter "in the very near future."
Green went on to say that the Chinese nationals had been released into the United States after crossing the border, without any verification of identity. "We have no idea who these people are, and it’s very likely, using Russia’s template of sending military personnel into Ukraine, China is doing the same into the United States," he continued.
Border Patrol has seen a surge of migrants from China attempting to cross into the United States. Since January, they have encountered nearly 8,000 Chinese nationals at the southern border, already more than quadruple the number from fiscal year 2022, according to Customs and Border Protection data.
In fiscal year 2023, Border Patrol has also apprehended 98 people on the FBI’s terror watch list, including 16 in the month of February alone.

China is putting its soldiers on U.S. soil, and thanks to Joe Biden's open border, it can --congressman
Is China positioning its soldiers on U.S. soil in preparation for a conflict with the U.S.?
That's what one congressman has warned.
According to JustTheNews:
House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Mark Green, R-Tenn., on Wednesday said China is likely sending military personnel into the United States across the southern border.
At a press conference announcing an investigation into Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, Green said there are "Chinese Nationals, many of whom are military-aged men" with ties to the Chinese Communist Party who have crossed the southern border and been released into the United States.
"We have no idea who these people are and it's very likely, using Russia's template of sending military personnel into Ukraine, China is doing the same in the United States," Green also said.
The revelation came from a Border Patrol sector chief, Green said, adding that he expects a classified briefing on the matter in the near future.
It sounds fantastical, the figment of a fevered mind seeing Chinese conspiracies all over the place.
But there's reason to think it's not. The information is correlated with a striking rise in Chinese illegal border crossers into the U.S. through our southern border, some 10,000 from October 2022, the beginning of the federal fiscal year, through April 2023, a sharp rise compared to about 2,000 who arrived from the same period last year.
Virtually all of them are military-aged young men. Might that just be the plan? Green's point, that this was how Russia began its offensive against Ukraine, is likely important -- this is the new style of warfare for nations that mean to win, at least, and the Chinese are famous for copycatting.
Getting out of China, an openly communist country, is not an easy matter, even for those with high social credit scores. You can bet that those who have actually challenged the regime do not have high social credit scores to be permitted to so much as buy a plane ticket out of the country and would very likely be denied passports or exit routes out. So all who didn't have trouble getting out of China in order to turn up at the U.S.'s open border need extra scrutiny, which they are not getting.
There's additional evidence that the Chinese military is getting itself into the U.S., too.
Journalist Michael Yon reported two weeks ago that Chinese migrants heading into the U.S. from Panama's Darien Gap were seen conducting a chicken-blood drinking ritual, which is something China's special forces do as a rite of passage.
Chinese special forces, as well as Chinese spies, as Yon noted in his interview with Emerald Robinson, were getting into the U.S. because the U.S. was letting them in.
Meanwhile, it's worth noting what China has already done suggests its invasion intentions.
They've brazenly surveilled the U.S. using what they claimed was a weather balloon blown off course last February, taking that weather balloon all over the U.S. heartland until the Biden administration was pressured by the public into shooting it down. Might that knowledge be of use to an army now sitting in place, awaiting its orders from Beijing?
They've also brazenly set up police stations on U.S. soil, making themselves a sovereign state within somebody else's sovereign state, and using it to threaten dissidents, among other things. The FBI shut down a few of these stations -- and the rest, so far as is known, are still operating with impunity.
Something is going on with this activity. On a historic basis, China knows all about the importance of walls for keeping foreign invaders out. The flip side is that it would also know all about how foolish those are who don't understand this lesson from Chinese history. They would know how to take advantage.
That's just the baseline, for starters.
What use might paramilitary Chinese forces in place in the U.S. be?
Well, if China means to take Taiwan by force, which they have shown all intentions of doing, disrupting U.S. support for Taiwan, would likely be paramount. Chinese paramilitaries could blow up supply lines, target ammo factories, disrupt electricity, water, and gas lines, and black out the Internet as war aims while they engaged in their operation against Taiwan. They could even blow up food factories or set agricultural production centers on fire. We see a lot of that already, with no explanations forthcoming.
Usually, the Russians, who have plenty of motivation given the U.S. support for Ukraine, are suspected, but the Chinese are Russia's ally now, and they too are similarly motivated. Might that be happening?
Perhaps we will find out through Congress because we sure as heck aren't going to be finding out much from China-compromised Joe Biden.
What it suggests is that a war with China may be far closer than thought, as well as right here on U.S. soil, which hasn't happened in any major way since the Civil War.
That's a major shift, and it's critical that Congressman Green and all other patriots in the House follow up on this matter as expeditiously as possible.

Biden Admin Vows To 'Make Every Effort' To Cooperate With China on Fentanyl
WASHINGTON—The Biden administration will strive to step up cooperation with China to halt the flow of the synthetic opioid fentanyl into the United States, a U.S. counter-narcotics official said ahead of a visit by U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken to Beijing.
Efforts could include negotiations with China over the 2020 U.S. decision to put China's Ministry of Public Security's Institute of Forensic Science on the Commerce Department's "entity list", effectively barring it from receiving U.S. exports.
"There's a number of reasons it was listed. So just un-listing it isn't going to happen," Todd Robinson, Assistant Secretary for the Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs at State Department, said in an interview.
"It is a complicated issue. The lab is large, it's part of a much larger facility and only part of the facility is listed."
The United States has said the institute was complicit in human rights abuses toward Uyghurs and other Chinese ethnic minorities.
But Robinson said blocking the flow of fentanyl and precursors to the United States and securing China's cooperation on the issue was a top priority.
"This is an important issue. And it's an issue I think is very likely going to be raised directly with the Secretary's Chinese counterpart, PRC (People's Republic of China) counterpart. And depending on the response, I think everything is on the table in terms of getting some kind of global cooperation on this issue," Robinson said.
The rate of U.S. drug overdose deaths involving fentanyl more than tripled from 2016 through 2021, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Fentanyl is up to 50 times stronger than heroin and is increasingly mixed with other illicit drugs often with lethal results. U.S. drug-related overdose deaths surpassed 100,000 in 2021, according to government estimates.
"EVERY EFFORT"
Blinken will travel to China next week for long-delayed talks aimed at stabilizing relations. A trip planned for February was postponed over a dispute involving an alleged Chinese spy balloon.
He will be the highest ranking U.S. government official to visit China since President Joe Biden took office in January 2021.
In 2022, China's ambassador to Washington, Qin Gang, called Washington's decision to sanction the institute "shocking" and said it was a key public institution in the fight against fentanyl. Qin Gang is now China's foreign minister.
Stemming the illicit flow of fentanyl "precursor" chemicals from China has been a priority for Washington but U.S. officials have told Reuters that Chinese counterparts have been reluctant to cooperate.
Robinson said he did not find it "that unusual" that China would seek to extract concessions from Washington in exchange for help on fentanyl.
"But I think that because of the nature of this issue, we're going to make every effort to get to a better place with the PRC on the precursor chemicals," he said.

Schweizer said, “Biden’s lawyer claims that his client did resign, and has produced a document from Hunter’s China-based company saying as much. Maybe. But Hunter’s attorney did not address the more important problem – the fact that Hunter still owns a piece of the Chinese company, called BHR.”
“[BHR] is an investment vehicle, financed by the government of China, which has conducted at least two-point-five billion dollars worth of deals,” added Schweizer, “and Hunter Biden has a ten percent equity piece of that.”
EXCLUSIVE: 13K Chinese Migrants Apprehended on U.S.-Mexico Border Since October
Since the beginning of Fiscal Year 23 on October 1, 2022, Border Patrol agents along the U.S.-Mexico border apprehended nearly 13,000 Chinese migrants. The number represents a more than 1,000 percent increase in migrants from the communist regime when compared to the previous year’s totals.
Nearly 13,000 migrants from the People’s Republic of China (PRC) have been apprehended along the U.S. Southwest border with Mexico this fiscal year, according to a CBP source not authorized to speak to the media. Approximately 84 percent of the migrants from the PRC are single adults. After processing by the Border Patrol, most are released to pursue asylum claims in the United States.
The source says the agency is baffled by the increase as intelligence debriefings yield little information about the migrants and their purpose for entering. The language barrier is proving to be a challenge according to the source.
“Having to use third-party translation services, Border Patrol agents and intelligence officers who are already struggling to cope with thousands of migrant apprehensions daily, are getting limited intelligence information from the migrants,” the source told Breitbart Texas.
Breitbart Texas also spoke with Dr. Kenneth Allard, a retired Army Colonel and former Dean of Students at the National War College. As an author of several works including Warheads: Cable News and the Fog of War, a former intelligence officer, and special assistant to the Army Chief of Staff, Allard is also concerned with the lack of intelligence regarding the spike in migrant apprehension of citizens from the People’s Republic of China.
Allard says the fact may be that most of the migrants from the PRC are in fact dissidents fleeing poor conditions in China. But as an expert on totalitarian regimes, he believes the current administration lacks the willpower to properly investigate the phenomenon.
“Totalitarian governments like China are great exploiters of opportunity,” Dr. Allard told Breitbart. “They recognize weakness and capitalize on it immediately. What we are seeing reflects a deliberate policy choice by the regime.”
When asked about the potential for China to take advantage of the current crisis along the southern border, Allard says the regime most certainly recognizes the weakness President Biden has exhibited on the international stage, adding “its obvious he is not entirely in control at present, China realizes that as well.”
What little information that is retrieved from the migrants would indicate most are fleeing the repressive regime due to the aftereffects of the extreme COVID-19 lockdowns imposed by Xi Jinping’s government. Another reason cited by the migrants is the negative economic effects of China’s strict COVID-19 policies regarding the exportation and importation of goods.
Lacking definitive answers, some have speculated the opening of China’s ports after the COVID-19 lockdowns ended is a predominant factor in the exodus of Chinese nationals. An analysis of the timeline of significant world events, however, does not altogether align with the theory. It may be true that most of the migrants who form part of the increased number arriving at the border are in fact dissidents who are weary of the Chinese system of government, the PRC’s dismal record on human rights, or the harsh controls on the use of the internet and social media inside the regime, but with worsening relations between the United States and the government of Chinese President Xi Jinping, the exponential increase in arriving migrants from China should not be ignored.
China opened its ports and loosened travel restrictions for tourists in January 2023 after a three-year closure. That move was more than eight months after the first notable doubling of Chinese migrant arrivals along the southwest border. In April 2022, migrant apprehensions for nationals of the People’s Republic of China rose by nearly 100% from 74 apprehensions in March to 146. The number has continued to double almost every three months until reaching more than 1,000 apprehensions at the time of the re-opening of Chinese ports in January.
Despite the re-opening of its ports, China, through the Ministry of Public Security and Ministry of Foreign Affairs, still exerts strict exit and entry controls that apply to all travelers including its own citizens.
When further analyzing the timeline of significant events in relation to the notable increase in migrant flow from the PRC to the United States, several newsworthy occurrences were closer to the start of the increase than China’s border opening.
In February 2022, the Department of Justice announced the abandonment of the Trump-era China Initiative. Developed as a counter to Chinese national security threats, FBI Director Christopher Wray issued the following statement concerning the implementation of the initiative, “No country presents a broader, more severe threat to our ideas, our innovation, and our economic security than China.”
The agreement faced criticism of anti-Asian bias and, when announcing the departure from the initiative, Assistant Attorney General Matthew Olsen of the DOJ’s National Security Division stated:
To be clear, we are focused on the actions of the PRC government, the Chinese Communist Party, and their agents — not the Chinese people or those of Chinese descent. As we talk about the threats that the PRC government poses to the United States, we must never lose sight of that fundamental distinction. We must always be vigilant to ensure that no one is treated differently based on race, ethnicity, familial ties, or national origin. This is a foundational commitment of the Department of Justice.
In the announcement, Olsen pledged to maintain a vigilant watch over actions carried out on behalf of the PRC that could negatively impact national security. Within two months, the initial doubling of migrant apprehensions from the PRC appeared at the southwest border.
In August 2022, a visit to Taiwan by then Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi sparked outrage and swift condemnation from Beijing. The visit was viewed as an escalation towards China due to Pelosi’s high rank within the US Government. Soon afterward, China announced it would halt cooperation with the United States regarding anti-narcotics, climate change, and a host of other issues. China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a chilling warning in response to the visit stating, “These moves, like playing with fire, are extremely dangerous. Those who play with fire will perish by it.”
Within a month of the visit, migrant apprehensions along the southwest border had risen by nearly 432% from 74 apprehensions in the March 2022 baseline to 392 in September.
By January 2023, when China opened its ports of entry after three years of COVID-19 closure, the Border Patrol’s migrant apprehensions of Chinese nationals had risen to 1,076 — an increase of more than 1,300 percent over the baseline of 74 in March 2022.
The January apprehension numbers would soon double once again, coinciding with the Chinese Spy Balloon incident that occurred in late January and concluded on February 4, 2023, when the Pentagon destroyed the craft over water off the coast of South Carolina. Again, China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs was quick to condemn the United States for its actions regarding the incident.
“China strongly disapproves of and protests the US attack on a civilian unmanned airship by force,” officials stated. “The Chinese side has, after verification, repeatedly informed the (U.S.) side of the civilian nature of the airship and conveyed that its entry into the (U.S.) due to force majeure was totally unexpected.”
One news report alleges the balloon was able to gather sensitive military intelligence as it traversed the country. The report cited three unnamed U.S. government officials who alleged the balloon was able to fly controlled patterns as it gathered electronic signals.
By March, less than 60 days after the incident, a spike in migrant arrivals from the PRC occurred jumping from 1,076 in January to 2,265 — an increase of more than 100 percent.
By April, an additional increase of 41 percent in PRC migrant apprehensions along the Southwest border brought the total monthly apprehensions to 3,195, according to Customs and Border Protection reports.
The travel route for most Chinese migrants is costly and arduous, according to the CBP source. The journey to the United States in most cases involves traveling from Hong Kong to Turkey and on to Ecuador. Ecuador is a common point along the route as Chinese nationals are not required to possess a visa to enter the Latin American country.
The migrants, according to the source, move through Panama’s Darien Gap before traversing through Central America, into Mexico, and on to the United States’ southern border. As reported by Breitbart Texas, the smuggling fees have been revealed to be as high as $55,000 to reach the U.S./Mexico Border from the People’s Republic of China.

Tucker Carlson Slams Fox News for Apologizing for ‘Wannabe Dictator’ Headline about Joe Biden
Tucker Carlson slammed Fox News for apologizing and ousting the producer responsible for running a headline that seemingly called President Joe Biden a “wannabe dictator” the day former President Donald Trump was arraigned in federal court.
Shortly after Trump’s first appearance in federal court on Tuesday, Fox News ran an all-caps chyron that read, “Wannabe dictator speaks at the White House after having his political rival arrested.”
On Wednesday, the cable news network issued a statement that said the “chyron was taken down immediately and was addressed.”
“Those words were up for less than 30 seconds, but the effect was immediate,” Carlson said, adding, “inside Fox, the women who run the network panicked.” Carlson noted the producer who put the chyron on the screen, a tenured employee who “was considered one of the most capable people in the building,” resigned less than 24 hours after the controversy.
Carlson then used the remainder of the fourth episode of his Twitter show to compare Biden’s acts to that of a “wannabe dictator.”
“Of course, Joe Biden is not a wannabe dictator. Just because he’s trying to put the other candidate in prison for the rest of his life for a crime he himself committed, doesn’t mean he has a totalitarian impulse. Come on. That’s absurd,” Carlson joked. “It takes a lot more than jailing your political rivals to earn the title ‘wannabe dictator.’”
Carlson then said wannabe dictators “enrich themselves and their families, their tribe, even as the countries they govern grow steadily poorer and more desperate.”
“They take kickbacks from businesses and from other dictators. They use the official functions of their government to funnel cash to themselves. They don’t bother to hide the fruits of this,” Carlson added. “They live in garish mansions, with big lawns far from the teeming cities, even as their own citizens languish in growing poverty in some cases, literally living in tents on the street.
“People can’t gather in large numbers to protest the rule of the dictator if they try that they’ll be arrested by his state security services, even years after the fact,” Carlson said before playing a clip of law enforcement arresting Ashli Babbit’s mother while protesting in Washington, DC.

Ben Von Klemperer via Storyful“And by the way, it’s not just public protests that would be banned in a dictatorship, you wouldn’t be allowed to complain from your own home,” Carlson said. “Unauthorized opinions expressed on the internet would be censored. Go too far, press too deep, tell too much truth, and they’ll just erase your opinions. They have no choice really.”
“Those who support the regime can keep their weapons and use them freely, including on public transportation. That’s a core civil right for them,” Carlson continued. “But for those who dissent from the program, self-defense is an unaffordable privilege. Turn in your guns, Mr. Mrs. peaceful opposition, you’re a danger to society, and we know who you are.”
“Dictators build cults of personality around themselves, and they use those cults to deny the glaringly obvious,” he said.
“If Joe Biden ever developed some profound physical or medical problem that was obvious to everybody. Journalists would say something. This is not North Korea. We don’t have state media here,” Carlson joked. “If Joe Biden was say, incapable of completing a full sentence or mistook his sister for his wife, or suddenly started falling down in public for no reason, the New York Times would report on that and they get to the bottom of what was actually happening.”
Carlson also criticized Biden for claiming “ownership” of American children in a recent video uploaded to Twitter to honor LGBTQ Americans.
“These are our kids. These are our neighbors, not somebody else’s kids. They’re all our kids,” Biden said in the video. “And our children are the kite strings that hold our national ambitions aloft.”
“See, Joe Biden isn’t saying your children belong to him like a dictator would. He says something very different from that. He’s saying America’s children are ‘our children,’ not his alone. Ours,” Carlson said. “You share your children with Joe Biden evenly right down the middle with alternating weekends. You’ve got joint custody with Joe Biden, and you can thank heaven that you do.
“A nation is like a family. Every family has a head, a father. That’s Joe Biden, our nation’s father, and this, ladies and gentlemen, is now his fatherland. Just don’t call it a dictatorship, or we’ll have to issue a statement disavowing you,” he concluded.

‘Dumb Question’: Joe Biden Snaps When Asked About ‘Big Guy’ Reference
President Joe Biden snapped on Thursday when questioned why he was called the “big guy” in an FBI informant document accusing him of accepting a $5 million bribe.
Last week, the FBI provided Congress with an FBI informant document that alleged Joe Biden accepted a $5 million bribe from a Ukrainian oligarch.
According to Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA), the document said the founder of Burisma, Mykola Zlochevsky, who allegedly paid Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden, kept 17 audio recordings of his conversations of them as an “insurance policy.”
Republican lawmakers also confirmed Joe Biden is the so-called “big guy,” an alias that whistleblower Tony Bobulinski originally revealed for Joe Biden from his dealings between the Bidens and a Chinese entity.
“Why did the Ukraine FBI informant file refer to you as the ‘big guy’, President Biden? Why is that term continuously applied?” a New York Post reporter asked Biden.
“Why do you ask such a dumb question?” he replied.
The question represents the third time the president faced a question about the alleged bribery scheme in recent days.
On Tuesday, Joe Biden dismissed a question about the alleged audio tapes by breaking his stride, turning, grinning, and slowly shaking his head while walking away.
Last week, Joe Biden mockingly called the allegation of a bribe “malarkey” when a reporter raised the issue.
“Where is the money?” he jokingly responded. “I’m joking.”
According to polling, 52 percent of voters believe the Biden family received payments from foreign nationals to influence policy, while just 31 percent said no. Another 15 percent were unsure.
Meanwhile, FBI Deputy Director Paul Abbate on Tuesday refused to answer Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) during a Judiciary Committee hearing about whether the FBI possesses the tapes.
“I’m not going to get further into that,” he replied after admitting the FBI does have the form that alleges the 17 recordings.
“Senator, no one’s stonewalling,” Abbate claimed.
On Thursday House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) told Fox News the FBI document is based on a very credible source and should be taken seriously.
“This informant has been paid over $200,000 dollars from the FBI,” he said. “We believe this informant may also work for potentially the CIA. And this informant has been around since the Obama administration.”
“We have more bank records coming in going to exceed $10 million, this week. And I think we will get between $20 and 30 million,” he added.

White House Uses Opinion Writers to Combat Biden ‘Bribery’ Allegations
The White House this week used opinion writers to combat the allegations against President Joe Biden of “bribery.”
Nearly a week of silence since the allegation, Ian Sams, a spokesperson for the White House, finally tried to combat the “bribery” allegations leveled against Joe Biden by using opinion writers in the establishment media.
On Thursday, the FBI provided Congress with an FBI informant document that alleged Joe Biden accepted a $5 million bribe from a Ukrainian oligarch. According to Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA), the document also says the founder of Burisma, Mykola Zlochevsky, who allegedly paid Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden, kept 17 audio recordings of his conversations of them as an “insurance policy.”
Five days after the allegations, Sams posted his first tweet in response. He pointed to an opinion article written in the Hill by Kris Kolesnik to discredit Republican lawmakers. Kolesnik worked 10 years with the Department of the Interior’s Office of Inspector General.
“Brutal assessment by Grassley’s own former two-decade top oversight aide re: Grassley’s foray into la la land with Comer & the extreme MAGA House Republicans to attack POTUS,” Sams posted on Twitter.
“‘Why has he become so unrecognizably political?'” he quoted the article. “‘Perhaps it’s time to re-focus.'”
Sams also posted an opinion article by Washington Post‘s Philip Bump to attack Republicans over the allegations against Joe Biden.
“If you’re having a hard time following the House GOP’s meandering fact-free attack about President Biden and an unverified tip form at the FBI, you are not alone,” Sams claimed.
“It’s a real whopper. Fortunately, the @washingtonpost has broken down the facts in a clear way, so give it a read,” he added:
Despite Sams’ efforts, Republicans appear to be winning the communications battle over the allegations.
According to polling, 52 percent of voters believe the Biden family received payments from foreign nationals to influence policy, while just 31 percent said no. Another 15 percent were unsure.
