| 3 Potential Scandals Plaguing The FBI-Biden Bribe Saga |
| 2023-06-14 |
| [Federalist] FBI Director Christopher Wray narrowly avoided contempt of Congress proceedings last week over his refusal to provide the House Oversight Committee with an unclassified document memorializing a trusted informant’s allegation that then-Vice President Joe Biden accepted a $5 million bribe from Ukrainian energy oligarch Burisma. Dramatic as the near-rebuke may have appeared, and as explosive as the contents of the FBI’s concealed FD-1023 form seem to be, the trio of apparent scandals this saga touches on transcends its immediate significance. INFLUENCE PEDDLING The first scandal — hiding in plain sight for years yet never fully exposed, let alone prosecuted — concerns the Biden family’s potentially criminal, national security-imperiling, public trust-eroding influence peddling. The reality of this influence peddling makes the stunning allegation of a Joe Biden bribe seem infinitely more plausible than it might otherwise appear. The House Oversight Committee’s recent review of thousands of records from subpoenas to four banks — which preceded its pursuit of the FD-1023 — shows that "Biden family members and business associates created a web of over 20 companies," the majority of which were formed during Biden’s vice presidency. Through this web, "the Biden family, their business associates, and their companies received over $10 million from foreign nationals’ and their related companies" [emphasis original] during and after the then-vice president’s tenure. Millions seem to have come from a company controlled by a corrupt Romanian oligarch and entities tied to the Chinese Communist Party. The money flowed to Biden family members, many of whom possessed no discernible relevant skills or experience. And at times, there was no evidence they rendered any services. These findings build on the earlier work of Republican Sens. Charles Grassley — who, alongside House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, pressed FBI Director Wray to produce the FD-1023 — and Ron Johnson. The duo detailed dubious Biden family dealings with Russian, Kazakh, and Ukrainian nationals as well — Ukraine, of course, being the famously corrupt country of origin for the alleged Biden bribe.

| #4 Historically, there have been dirtbag relatives galore in presidential families. There has not been a 50% split on a $10M bribe between president and son. That is Hunter’s significance not the hookers. |

| #3 Biden's son can get away with anything he wants, just like Sarah Palin's daughter's boyfriend's mother got away with ... something or other. |
