Joe’s pardoning of Hunter will seal historians’ judgment on Joe

Hunter, it seems, just can’t get a break. First, he gets convicted of all three counts on an illegal gun purchase. That doesn’t sound like much but it carries a potential 25-year sentence.

Bad luck, that conviction.

This week, his trial for tax evasion was to begin. At the last minute, he trotted out a scheme where he pleads guilty without admitting guilt. (It’s a lawyer thing.)

The prosecutors were having none of it, and the judge was skeptical.

So then, Hunter just entered a straight guilty plea on all nine counts. They carry a potential 17-year sentence.

If he were sentenced to the maximum on both the gun and the tax charges, he’d be looking at 42 years in the federal penitentiary. He’d get out when he’s 96.

More bad luck, that.

Hunter’s lawyer suggests that we should feel sorry for this gun-toting, tax-evading, crack-addicted, influence-peddling, deadbeat dad because of the third of those hyphenated adjectives – he is or at least was addicted to illegal crack cocaine.

For that crime, he was never even charged. Ah, a bit of good luck at last.

Joe has said he won’t pardon Hunter. But Joe has also said he graduated high in his law school class; he was the guy who stood up to Corn Pop; his surrender of Afghanistan along with billions of dollars’ worth of military equipment to barbarians from the 11th century was “an extraordinary success;” he won’t quit his run for reelection; and his uncle was eaten by cannibals.

No joke.

Hunter’s lawyer said the reason that Hunter pleaded guilty to the tax crimes was not because he committed tax crimes, but “to protect those he loves from unnecessary hurt and cruel humiliation.”

The prosecutors, you see, were prepared to show a trail of money from Romania, Ukraine and other foreign sources, and into the hands of the Biden family – a total of over $26 million. I don’t know whether Hunter actually “loves” the unidentified “those” people, but his guilty pleas were certainly to protect them from hurt and humiliation.

Whether you see that hurt as “unnecessary” and that humiliation as “cruel” may depend on whether you believe that justice should uncover the truth and crimes should be punished, or you’re a Democrat.

All this leaves two questions. First, what did the foreigners get for their $26+ million that they paid the Bidens? We may never know.

Second, given Hunter’s adept mercantile talents, what did, or will, he get for his guilty plea – a plea that dodged a trial that would have produced “unnecessary hurt and cruel humiliation” to “those he loves”?

I can answer that one. He got a promise for a pardon from the only person he allegedly loves who has the power to grant that pardon: Dad.

Dad will commit yet another selfish act of raw mendacity and corruption – one that probably rises to the level of criminal obstruction of justice.

But I can live with that. Because this time there will be a price to pay. Historians seeing the outrageous final act of this crime family will finally give Joe his due. Joe won’t like it, but he’ll be gone in a few years anyway.

I won’t be, however. It will please me to see historians – even the liberal ones, and almost all are liberals – roast Joe along with his cheesy, corrupt, grifting family.

As for Hunter, it’s not very important to me that he go to jail. Even if he skates, he’s virtually untouchable now anyway. He’s in OJ territory.

Even crack jobs like MSNBC won’t hire this crack head. He’ll launch a podcast, but nobody will listen. He’ll start a GoFundMe site to raise money to find “the real” tax evader. Nobody will donate.

He’ll learn all about hurt – the necessary kind. And humiliation – the righteous kind.

As a last resort, he’ll “co-author” a book (meaning he tells the story and someone else writes it) detailing the criminal shenanigans of the Biden crime family. He alone will be protected by Joe’s pardon. The others, not so much.

Bye-bye Bidens.

Hunter seems to think the fix is in at dad’s Department of Justice

Hunter Biden is the gift that keeps on giving. And I’m not talking about the STDs he’s probably given and received from his “lady” friends.

This president’s son, who has absolutely no business skills and typically is not even sober, has collected tens of millions from foreign governments and businessmen. Some of that money has found its way through labyrinth shell corporations and into the hands of the “Big Guy.” Some of it has not found its way into the hands of the Internal Revenue Service, though it should have.

Republicans want to learn more about this. Or as the New York Times would put it, “Republicans pounced.” That’s because the media which back in the days of journalism would itself pounce to investigate such suspicious activity was instead still navel-gazing about the laptop computer aka “Russian disinformation.”

The Republicans used the tool available: a Congressional subpoena to Hunter requiring him to give sworn testimony in a deposition on the subject. What he gave them instead was the finger.

Hunter’s lawyers and the prosecutor just got caught with their pants down

The prosecutors gave Hunter Biden a sweetheart plea bargain to end the tax fraud and gun case against him. For offenses that most certainly would have landed you or me in jail for years, Hunter got . . .

. . . [drum roll] . . .

. . . nothing. Nada. Zip. Zero jail time. He didn’t even have to pay all of his unpaid taxes because the prosecution dallied so long that the statute of limitations ran out.

And the deal apparently immunized him against unrelated charges. He would walk, a new man.

Well, not entirely. He would still be a man who was a drug addict, a deadbeat dad, a pervert, a tax evader, and a slouch. (But give him credit for his paintings!) But he would be a man immunized from any accountability for his crimes.

Meanwhile, Congress continues to investigate Hunter. Or as the media likes to say, “Republicans have seized” and “Republicans have pounced” upon the allegations.

Those pouncing and seizing Republicans – can’t they just move on?

It’s time for today’s Democrats to do what 1974’s Republicans did

“I am not a crook,” proclaimed Richard Nixon shortly before he resigned in disgrace.

And he wasn’t. At least not in the ordinary sense. Some lowlifes hired by an overzealous Committee to Reelect the President burglarized the Democrats at the Watergate Hotel. Nixon then foolishly tried to cover it up. That amounted to the technical and manufactured “crime” of obstruction of justice. But what Nixon himself did was not burglary – the burglary was committed without Nixon’s knowledge.

Then there’s Joe Biden.

Joe apparently was on the take. He and his family – at least nine of them at last count – appear to have taken millions from America’s competitors and even enemies around the world. His creepy son Hunter was the bag man for these bribes, but what Hunter was selling was 100% Joe.

That this happened is no longer seriously disputed.

Might we have a Republican president — in 2023?

Yes, and that’s 2023, not 2024. Here’s how.

It all starts with Joe Biden’s truculently delinquent and pathological son, Hunter. You know, the guy who was and apparently still is a cocaine addict and was drummed out of the Navy. The deadbeat father who denied paternity and avoided support obligations to the mother whom he met at a strip joint.

But those are the least of his troubles. Hunter’s “business” is to monetize his dad’s political position. He did so in the Ukraine where Hunter was paid millions by an oil and gas company, though he probably doesn’t even pump his own gas. The payors of these millions thanked him for introductions to dad.

The Bidens admit that the son’s payments from the Ukraine were because he was Joe’s son – they couldn’t possibly deny that – but contend that the payments did not affect U.S. policy toward the Ukraine. In other words, they say they accepted the payola but it’s OK because they cheated the Ukrainians out of getting anything for it.

It’s a little like Hillary’s pay-to-play speech schemes. She demanded and received $250,000 payments for one-hour speeches from connected people who wanted political favors, but denies that she ever gave them the favors they paid for.
