Don't tell me, Workers control the means of production will fix everything....

You really need to get over your awful habit of tarring anybody who even slightly disagrees with you. I'd be perfectly happy with workers being adequately compensated for their work.

Me too.

You know the world is messed up when there are so many homeless and how many huge private yachts are being built these days.
 
This time for sure!

While this article describing the GOP subpeoning an FBI document alleging then VP Biden took bribes (unconfirmed, to say the least) seems to portray a methodical investigation, it ignores the absolute rabidity the GOP displaying on social media, having convinced themselves this document is their Holy Grail for impeachment. They are already drawing up plans and claiming victory.

WITCH HUNT!

:rolleyes:
 
WITCH HUNT!

:rolleyes:

A real one, at that! Like the last many Republican witch hunts, it'll likely fizzle out, but that won't stop them from whipping up their base with more "investigations" that are based on transparent BS.

Let's see. Hunter Biden got some 3 million from China to invest. Only it was not Hunter but his business partner. So let us say Hunter got 50 000 for being a partner. And the "big guy" got 10%. Of the theoretical 3 million (sent for investment, not a gift), the Big Guy got $5000. But he did not, as there is no reason for Joe Biden to take "Chinese" money. it's much easier to take money from billionaires and plane rides. But Biden took no plane rides either. He likes trains.
 
Has everyone forgotten this is an old charge that was dismissed in the run-up to the 2020 election?

Repetition and narrative building. So long as they can create an emotional link between Biden and corruption, they win, even if it falls apart when subjected to actual scrutiny... because it's not going to be subjected to actual scrutiny by the intended audience.

Yep, dredge up the old accusations that went nowhere. It doesn't matter as long as they make that connection in the morons' minds again.

I get that part. But I was also wondering who else in the thread remembers this is recycled nonsense?

I remember/remembered that it was similar in nature to a prior claim or couple that I saw that seemed to have gained little traction back then and remember that such was quite the stretch then, though I don't remember much in the way of specific numbers. Without actually hunting down the prior claim, I wasn't going to just assume that it's the same one/one of those, either way.

the undisguised goal of Republicans in all branches of government is to destroy the country so they can blame it on the Democrats.
 
...

White House spokesman Andrew Bates circulated a memo Monday claiming GOP spending cuts would "supercharge the fentanyl crisis" by cutting thousands of agents from the Drug Enforcement Agency, FBI and Border Patrol.

It's the latest in a barrage of White House attacks highlighting cuts that could affect stated Republican priorities — with policing and veterans' benefits emerging as two of the most potent themes.
The White House is specifically targeting vulnerable House Republicans, releasing an analysis that found a total of 618,960 veterans live in the 18 GOP House districts Biden won in 2020.

There's an old quote that comes to mind. "Ye shall know them by their fruit." What's the fruit of the Republican Party? Deception and division, sabotage and betrayal, and corruption and death.

Given recent news about the source of fentanyl in this country, cutting law enforcement may actually be an improvement.

Bay Area police union leader allegedly smuggled fentanyl into US to sell in bulk

Segovia received 61 shipments over eight years, federal prosecutors allege.
 
Now it's "the Biden family". :rolleyes:

Good grief, talk about obvious framing to make it sound like a mafia family. And this projection is notable given how the corruption really does involve the Trump family.

House Republicans ramp up claims Biden family received money from foreign contacts

I'm pretty sure a son and a brother (not sure if that's Joe or Jill Biden's sibling) do not constitute "the Biden family".
A poster titled "China Payments to Bidens" is visible as House Committee on Oversight and Accountability Chairman Rep. James Comer Jr., R-Ky., arrives for a news conference on their investigation into the Biden Family on Capitol Hill in Washington, Wednesday, May 10, 2023.

A 2019 New York Times report into Popoviciu documented payments to Hunter Biden in his role then as an attorney and found no evidence of improper actions by then-Vice President Biden. This is in addition to an NBC report that year that probed Hunter Biden's overseas dealings.

House Republicans also spotlighted payments from Chinese energy company, CEFC China Energy, to another entity that later made payments to Biden family members.

However, reports in past years have already documented the failed costly deal between Hunter Biden and CEFC. For example, the Washington Post reported last year that CEFC previously paid Hunter Biden and his uncle $4.8 million during a 14-month period.

We'll see if there is anything new here but it looks like repackaged crap. Yep, Hunter and his uncle used name dropping to get big payments. IIRC Joe scolded his son for it or in some way told him to knock it off.

The "Biden Family" frame has two goals. One is as you said, making it sound like a mafia family. The other is to link Joe Biden to the sketchy dealings in the first place. There is all sorts of sketchy stuff they can hang on Hunter, but they have nothing on Joe or they would have used it by now.

The "uncle" is Pres. Biden's brother.

Yes, this is all the same crap in a different wrapping paper. They have never been able to provide any evidence that any of it was illegal or that Pres. Biden had anything to do with it anyway. This is nothing but the Trumper Congress Critters doing their best to get him back in the WH. It reeks of desperation.
 
I love Biden's response to the fiasco that just happened at CNN with the Town Hall:

"It simple folks: You Want Four Years Of This?".
