Scammer in Chief
20th June 2023
With the provisos that every American is entitled to a presumption of innocence, and much of what is known of the Biden family crime organization is “alleged,” there is powerful evidence that President Joe Biden committed multiple felonies as a co-conspirator in an international fraud and racketeering scheme, regardless of whether he personally received bribes.
It is only because the FBI and Department of Justice (DOJ) are weaponized against the right, and give a free pass to Democrat leaders and progressive violence, that the President’s son, Hunter, and brother, James, have not been indicted for their participation in this enterprise, or that the President has not been impeached, though fear that Kamala Harris would replace him also may be at play. The news that Hunter has struck a deal with the DOJ to plead guilty to two tax misdemeanors and a failure to report drug use on his firearms application in exchange for probation with no jailtime, and a potential partial expungement of his record after two years, is a slap on the wrist that stays far away from implicating the President.
Democrats and the media—which usually functions as an arm of the Democrat Party—defend the President by observing there is no publicly available proof that he received a bribe, and they assert that he has not used his position to benefit the family’s benefactors. This rose-colored analysis fails in at least three respects: (1) there is no reasonable doubt that Joe Biden knew that Hunter, James, and other family members were engaged in influence peddling; (2) Biden assisted these efforts, at a minimum, by creating the appearance that he endorsed the family business; and (3) at least as to Burisma Holdings, there is strong evidence that he acted in his official capacity as vice president to create value for Burisma and its owner. At a trial, there is no distinction between the weight given to direct and circumstantial evidence.
