The committee, led by Chairman James Comer, said in the report that it plans to continue to investigate Biden to find evidence of corruption, even as it acknowledged that it had no evidence that he financially benefited from the myriad foreign business dealings of his son Hunter.
Well it worked with Hillary in 2016 with “but her emails” and now they are trying that again with Biden “but his son’s laptop”. It just doesn’t really have the same impact.
Also, in 2016, Trump still had the benefit of the doubt. I’m confident most people, especially independents, are not interested in another 2016-2020 filled with scandals, obvious lies and another White House turning door where nothing get accomplished.
That said, these countless investigations on the Bidens are actually proving me wrong. In 2019-2020, I was disappointed that Biden was the candidate because I thought since he had been in politics for 45+ years, he had to have been corrupted at some point. But Republicans are proving me wrong. The guy is squeaky clean and I find this really refreshing.
Fun fact: the Republicans’ email server was also hacked around the same time, but the contents of the server weren’t released by the Russians like the DNC’s emails were. I suspect the kompromat contained within was too good to release to the public. That would certainly explain a lot about their behaviors since then.
Also, regarding private email servers for, “unofficial communications,” Republicans were using those too.
Oh right, yeah, I forgot about that. Thanks for the reminder. So much corruption in the GOP it’s hard to keep track.
It’s funny because we KNOW for a fact, as per the Mueller report, that the GOP is 100% compromised and infiltrated by Russian spies. We just, uh, kinda went along with it and accepted it as the new normal.
Just because part of the Democratic party has a major issue with corruption doesn’t mean that I don’t think the entire GOP is rotted through to its racist and fascist core.
Also thank you for summarizing a part of the Mueller report that I listened to as much as a as was publicly released(thank you fuckhead weasel Barr.)
Biden was the poorest (least affluent?) senator for decades. If he was corrupt, he was very bad at it.
It’s likely that Hunter was trading on his father’s name (as do many children of famous/influential people). But Joe being corrupt just doesn’t pass the smell test. And this time, I don’t think the Republican smear campaign is going to work, President Biden isn’t Hillary Clinton. I mean, it will work with some people, but they’re already too deep into the GQP’s alt-universe to be reachable.
They also timed that one way better. Unless they’re holding things back the chances of them having a bombshell at this point is essentially zero. Every day they come up empty makes Joe look more and more vindicated while making the GOP look more and more inept. If you can’t pin a crime on a guy you call “Sleepy Joe” what the fuck can you do?
Except she did actually get caught manipulating the Democratic primary leading up to 2016, as well as collaborating to manipulate the GOP one as well.
Hell, the hacked/leaked democratic party emails listed him as their preferred GOP candidate because they thought he’d be so easy to beat.
Biden is innocent. He makes enough on his own from lobbyist bribes like the rest of DC.

For starters.
The Clinton hate started in 1993 with the Whitewater ‘investigation’. Since then, it never stopped. Never.
There has been a total of 419 investigations into the two of them, Bill and Hillary. How many crimes was found exactly? A big fat zero. Nada. Nothing. Rien.
Hillary Clinton is, and by far, the most vetted polician in the history of this country. She’s a woman, she has/had power, she is kind and generous so she’s everything Republicans hates.
I’m tired of hearing that “maaayybbbeee the right is right, I guess we can give them the benefit of the doubt about her”
No. Fuck them. They keep pretending they are outraged at stuff that doesn’t actually bother anyone. We shall not give them another single ounce of credibility. They constantly scream about obvious bullshit that can be debunked in a 5 seconds google search, they keep calling you a sheep whenever you disagree on a topic in politic and they NEVER admits when they are clearly in the wrong. I’m so sick of these failures attempting to subvert democracy.
So no, I’m not even gonna bother clicking your link. I know exactly what I’m gonna find and this is not the slam dunk you are thinking. As always.
/end of rant
No she didn’t. It’s hard to combat conspiracy theories since they just shift the claims around but if you’re referring to the joint fundraising agreement (my best guess), that’s a standard agreement signed between campaigns and the party so that when a nominee is eventually chosen, the campaign and party can work in unison.
The reality is that nobody did more to raise Bernie’s national profile than Hillary. He was able to make a serious go at the nomination only because she had already cleaned the floor. And when it came time to vote, actual Democrats overwhelmingly chose her, which is obvious since she was the only Democrat running. Bernie just temporarily pretends to be a Democrat when he wants their money and is unwilling to do any of the ongoing work to support the party and its other down-ballot candidates.
Thank you. It drives me nuts how few people know/acknowledge that.
A ton of people are young and had legitimately never seen a primary before 2016 and were apparently under the impression that they are traditionally these sanctified contests where political saints exert enormous effort to ensure fairness and balance.
The reality is that the 2016 primary was neither unusually especially contentious or corrupt. Any other view is either ignorant or malicious as far as I’m concerned.
“BoTh SiDe ArE CoRrUpT”
Yeah no, done with your bullshit. I will call you every time I see it now. Open your god damn eyes and start thinking for yourself for once in your life.
The GOP is far, far more corrupt, absolutely, they’re racist fascists.
The Democratic party is also corrupt, saying otherwise commits the same errors the very few remaining sane GOP do when they forgive the grievous and plentiful sins of their own party.
For starters, you’d have had net neutrality at least for a bit, if the democratic party wasn’t corrupt.
I’m not gonna downvote you because I appreciate a detailed argument. And you know what? I can somewhat agree with you. I bet there are some nasty disgustingly corrupted piece of shit inside the Democrat party. That’s a fact. Undeniable. 100% agreed on that.
However, and this is where we may have a disagreement, whenever a Democrat is caught, the party turns on him/her and pretty much everybody agrees to let that asshole rot in prison.
On the other side, the republican side, whenever one of them is caught, they try to avoid turning on each others and discuss ways to reduce the media exposure on the matter. They back each other. And god damn they are good at standing united. Hell if there’s one thing they are competent at, it’s backing each others in their corruption. And whenever a republican with a spine decides to spit the bean, all the rest starts to call him a RINO and an antifa plant or a Democrat on disguise etc.
I can’t speak for you, but I find this distinction between the two parties absolutely massive and cannot be overlooked
So you’re saying the Democratic party isn’t corrupt?
Except actual enforcement of the rules was delayed until January 2017, so while it existed, it was never actually enforced.
That giant cop out of an implementation is textbook corruption.
So under Obama ISPs were categorized under title II but there were ongoing legal challenges until the Trump administration dropped it altogether and somehow that proves that Democrats are corrupt? Come on dude.
