'Joe Biden's Impeachment is Looking More Likely'

Snip
'It is "very likely" that President Biden has committed impeachable offenses, according to Speaker Mike Johnson, who was elected to the office on Wednesday after three weeks of Republican turmoil.

In September, then-Speaker Kevin McCarthy launched a formal impeachment inquiry into Biden. It focused on whether the president was ever influenced by the business dealings of his son Hunter Biden, potentially setting the stage for an impeachment trial. McCarthy said the president faced "allegations of abuse of power, obstruction and corruption," warranting further investigation.'

Allegations?

Republicans have spent six years searching for a single shred of actual evidence against Biden and have come up empty.

But please detail the "very obvious" evidence of abuse of power, obstruction, and corruption. Since it's "very obvious," this should be easy for you.

Thanks.

MORE on likely impeachment for Crime Boss Biden....

'House Speaker Johnson: House Pursuing Biden Allegations 'Very Aggressively''
Snip
'Sir, what about the investigations into the potential Biden family influence peddling, potential bribery?' host Maria Bartiromo asked. 'Are you going to allocate the financial resources and human capital needed to do an in-depth investigation? And will an impeachment inquiry turn into an official impeachment?'

'Well, see, Maria, I worked on the committees of jurisdiction,' Johnson replied. 'And Judiciary is one of those. I think our chairmen have done an exceptional job. You have spoken to all of them, Jamie Comer and Jim Jordan and Jason Smith, on Oversight and Judiciary and Ways and Means. They continued those investigations even while we were going through the tumult of the speaker's race. They were still working methodically through that. I'm encouraging that. I think we have a constitutional responsibility to follow this truth where it leads. We're the rule of law team. We don't use this for political, partisan games like the Democrats have done and did against Donald Trump twice.'

Hopefully the impeachment will take place soon....The sooner, the better.

We really DON'T want an impeachment! Think about it.

Playing chess here. The head Biden Crime Family don IS impeached. Goes to the Senate. Not a snowball's chance. Even it were, what would we have then? HARRIS??? God save the Republic. Waste of time.

Better: Put together a complete list of all his briberies and all other illegal garbage. Publish it. After January 2025, claw back all the illegal $'s. All of it. Leave him and Dr. Jill to live out their final days in an efficiency one bedroom walkup somewhere in Delaware. (No Pension! Same as military who are dishonorably discharged.)

And, please: Can we stop referring to what did dad know about Hunter's "business affairs"? LOSER SON HUNTER BIDEN HAD NO BUSINESS AFFAIRS. He was a bagman, plain and simple, for the Biden Crime Family, Inc. A BAGMAN. He had no product, no service, no nothing. He was and is the BAGMAN for Dad's Biden Crime Family, Inc. Period.

(His identity is captured perfectly by the loser character "Fredo" in The Godfather. As in the movie, he should have been eliminated long ago.)

It is not complicated, Cpl. Gomer Pyle.

-----------------

Oddly I am not too keen on impeaching Biden. I thought the reason for formally initiating the impeachment investigation provided the House committee with additional powers to obtain testimony and documents from an otherwise uncooperative Administration. That made perfect sense but Repubs seem to have evolved into a thirst for impeachment rather than documenting criminal acts leading to criminal prosecutions.

We all know Joe will not be convicted in the Senate regardless of the amount and quality of evidence against him. So why put all the energy into an impeachment proceeding in the House, especially when the world is on fire and more important matters are pressing.

If the impeachment investigation can document enough hard evidence to get some criminal prosecutions going on various Biden Clan members as needed, then I would favor that.

Please do. This has been requested of those who believe such a list, WITH PROOF, numerous times. The response has been crickets.

One more time, con brio: post the list of "briberies and other illegal garbage" for which there is incontrovertible evidence; proof, and not just another list of insinuations that everybody in the Red State/Fox echo chambers agrees "must be true".

Admissible, relevant, real proof.

Exactly this. I'm not really interested in seeing Biden or his corrupt family in jail. Leak out whatever info needs to be leaked out such that it costs him the election; that's all that needs to happen.

Put up or shut up. Show us your "complete list of all his briberies and all other illegal garbage".


BrerBear: And, please: Can we stop referring to what did dad know about Hunter's "business affairs"? LOSER SON HUNTER BIDEN HAD NO BUSINESS AFFAIRS.

Umm, huh?

Hunter Biden has a JD from Yale Law School. He was a consultant at MBNA, eventually promoted to executive vice president. He worked at the United States Department of Commerce, focusing on ecommerce policy for the Clinton administration. Biden was appointed to a five-year term on the board of directors of Amtrak by president George W. Bush and was the board's vice chairman from July 2006 until 2009. He resigned from the board shortly after his father became vice president.

Biden was on the board of directors of the charity World Food Program USA from 2011 to 2017 and served as an unpaid board chairman from 2011 to 2015.

Now if you want to argue that Hunter Biden used his father's name to secure positions and make money, no problem. As has been discussed here repeatedly, children of politicians coattail on their famous parents' names all the time. Bill Barr's daughter, Rudy Giuliani's son, Jared Kushner, each of the Trump spawn, and dozens -- hundreds -- of others.

Happens all the time.

And while most of us agree this is unfair and revolting, it is not illegal.

Unless you have evidence of specific illegal activities, you're blowing smoke.

Again, put up or shut up.

Biden candidacy standing for the DIMM's in 2024:
No one REALLY believes that Slow and going Slower Joe will be the DIMM's candidate 13 months from now, do we??? Regardless of what side of the aisle you sit.

No one wants him. Very specifically, his own party. It's not that he has become a has-been; it's more like he was a never-been. Ever.

God help this Republic. Indeed, we should all be praying that he's still up and taking fluids that far into the future. And he is no further incoherent, or has a fatal fall, than he already exhibits today, day by day.

Slow Joe will NOT be their candidate 13 months from now. Period.

They've got a problem: a non-existent bench.
The strongest candidates for President have traditionally been governors, although the democrats have had some success at electing former Senators of late. Behind Gavin Newsom they have very little. Nobody likes Jay Inslee and the rest of their stable of govs are relative unknowns especially after they ran off Cuomo.

Quite the conundrum they have!

Why not? As the Dems have clearly shown , an Impeachment can be run thru in a matter of days if so desired. Several Impeachments of Biden will show the pure political vindictiveness of the Dems trumped up Trump Impeachments for what they were.

"If the impeachment investigation can document enough hard evidence to get some criminal prosecutions going on various Biden Clan members as needed, then I would favor that."

Yep, BrerBear, you are absolutely correct. The evidence is there, whistle blowers have come
forward but the right people to push it have not done so. More than likely for the same reasons you have stated.
Crime Boss Biden will eventually get his just punishment and will be known by future generations as a common crook, same as Bill Clinton will always be know as the pervert who dirtied the Oval Office.

And, please: Can we stop referring to what did dad know about Hunter's "business affairs"? LOSER SON HUNTER BIDEN HAD NO BUSINESS AFFAIRS.

It's a terrible thing to have a father who would drag his own son in to do his dirty work, become the BAGMAN for the crime family. It's no wonder Hunter is a loser, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Patience.... "No! Try not! Do or do not, there is no try."

The evidence is there, whistle blowers have come forward but the right people to push it have not done so. More than likely for the same reasons you have stated.

Or more likely because no one has come forward with evidence sufficient to demonstrate a violation of the law committed by Joe Biden.

What always catches my ear in these discussions are the repeated references to the "Biden Crime Family" - rather than simply discussing the crimes that Joe Biden is being alleged to have committed. It's very reminiscent of the "Bush Crime Family" stuff that Mike Malloy was always going on about. Because at least one member of the family has done something prosecutable, you can allege that they're all in it together because they're a family - without ever having to articulate the specific things that the other members of the "Crime Family" have done that constitute crimes.

It's undeniable that Hunter Biden was trading on his last name, and trying to convince anyone and everyone that hiring him might confer benefits because of his connection to his politically-powerful relative. That's unseemly - whether Hunter Biden or Billy Carter - but not generally not a crime. And certainly not a crime committed by the relative.

It's always a bad look - but claiming that "of course the Politically Powerful Relative must have been in on it!" is not a substitute for evidence that the Politically Powerful Relative actually did anything wrong, if you're looking for any kind of formal enforcement action against them. It takes a lot to prove that a government official engaged in actual malfeasance when making choices that are within the purview of their office, and it's not easy to develop sufficient evidence that would support a charge or enforcement action. You might suspect that the officeholder is dirty, especially if they're in the party you dislike - but proving that is another thing altogether.

Which, again, is where the Biden Crime Family formulation is important. Hunter's a bad guy, so saying "Crime Family" blurs the distinction between him and the President and lets you impute all the scurrilous things he did to the President. It's a neat little rhetorical trick, but it's not going to get any formal action against the President.

Archer testified before the House Oversight Committee that he never heard Joe Biden talk about business any of the times Hunter got him on speakerphone or any other time.

"I think you have to understand that there was no business conversation about a cap table or a fee or anything like that. It was, you know, just general niceties and, you know, conversation in general about the geography, about the weather, whatever it may be.

So tell us, please, how could the "right people" make something out of nothing?

Or are you suggesting that talking about the weather was really "Breakfast At Tiffany's" Sally Tomato's "Snow flurries expected this weekend in New Orleans" code?

Why not, as the Dems clearly showed, Impeachment is a political action, not a civil action. No need for cross examination, or facing ones accusers.

'Devon Archer Sentenced To A Year And A Day In Prison For The Fraudulent Issuance And Sale Of More Than $60 Million Of Tribal Bonds'

Hunter got off with no charges (thanks dad) against him and his business partner got only a year and a day behind bars..for a 60 million fraud deal. Give me a break,

But wait till all this unfolds....

'Dozens of FBI sources gave 'criminal information' on Bidens that DOJ tried to discredit as 'foreign disinformation': Grassley'

SNIP
'More than 40 confidential sources provided 'criminal information' related to the Biden family to the FBI ' which the Justice Department tried to discredit as 'foreign disinformation,' according to Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley.

The confidential human sources, managed by several different FBI field offices, supplied the bureau with details of potential crimes by Hunter Biden, James Biden and Joe Biden dating back to his time as vice president, according to a letter, obtained by The Post, that was sent by the Iowa Republican to FBI Director Christopher Wray and Attorney General Merrick Garland on Tuesday.

'This letter is based on years of investigation, including the provision of information, records, and allegations from multiple Justice Department whistleblowers that indicate there is ' and has been ' an effort among certain Justice Department and FBI officials to improperly delay and stop full and complete investigative activity into the Biden family,' Grassley wrote.

'An essential question that must be answered is this: did the FBI investigate the information or shut it down? Indeed, if those sources were improperly shut down, it wouldn't be out of the ordinary for the FBI,' he added.'

https://nypost.com/2023/10/29/opinion/anatomy-of-a...

If Speaker Johnson has a hand in this investigation it will mostly likely shed a lot of evidence Biden cannot stop from being revealed.

But fluff it all off if you want. Remember, there is a new Sheriff in town and he is hell bent after Biden.

No. No break for the wicked. The perpetrators sold tribal bonds which were supposed to be invested in an annuity. Instead the proceeds were diverted elsewhere for various uses including personal use, but Hunter didn't seem to get any of the diverted money.

Umm, Rick Scott was the CEO of Columbia/HCA Hospital and oversaw the biggest Medicare fraud in US history. Columbia/HCA Hospital was fined $1.7 billion, which was the largest healthcare fraud fine ever levied by the DOJ.

Rick Scott walked away with $9.88 million in a settlement when he was forced to resign by the BOD, and left owning 10 million shares of stock then worth more than $350 million.

During Scott's 2000 deposition, he pleaded the Fifth Amendment 75 times.

He went on to become Governor of Florida and now its U.S. senator.

Give me a break, indeed.

But wait till all this unfolds....

'Dozens of FBI sources gave 'criminal information' on Bidens that DOJ tried to discredit as 'foreign disinformation': Grassley'

SNIP
'More than 40 confidential sources provided 'criminal information' related to the Biden family to the FBI ' which the Justice Department tried to discredit as 'foreign disinformation,' according to Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley.

The confidential human sources, managed by several different FBI field offices, supplied the bureau with details of potential crimes by Hunter Biden, James Biden and Joe Biden dating back to his time as vice president, according to a letter, obtained by The Post, that was sent by the Iowa Republican to FBI Director Christopher Wray and Attorney General Merrick Garland on Tuesday.

'This letter is based on years of investigation, including the provision of information, records, and allegations from multiple Justice Department whistleblowers that indicate there is ' and has been ' an effort among certain Justice Department and FBI officials to improperly delay and stop full and complete investigative activity into the Biden family,' Grassley wrote.

'An essential question that must be answered is this: did the FBI investigate the information or shut it down? Indeed, if those sources were improperly shut down, it wouldn't be out of the ordinary for the FBI,' he added.'

If Speaker Johnson has a hand in this investigation it will mostly likely shed a lot of evidence Biden cannot stop from being revealed.

But fluff it all off if you want. Remember, there is a new Sheriff in town and he is hell bent after Biden.

No one wants him. Very specifically, his own party. It's not that he has become a has-been; it's more like he was a never-been. Ever.

God help this Republic.



Br'er Bear.....identifying with that storybook character doesn't say much about your connection with reality or ability to understand how things work. I saw him in Song of the South when it first came out. And I read the original books. Br'er Bear is a slow-witted character with punitive and thieving intentions that are always foiled by Br'er Rabbit's smartness taking advantage of Br'er Bear's slow body and even slower brain.

And it is also thought that Br'er Bear and Br'er Fox represent slave owners.

Good morning all. Has anyone here ever, forgotten, to file their taxes for two consecutive years? Has anyone, forgotten, to report millions in taxable income? How many Americans have, forgotten, to file and, forgotten, to report millions in income and not faced a serious multiyear audit? I can no idea filing was optional and getting caught was a, do over, no harm no foul? What suckers most of us have been.

Hmmm...it's almost like...the rules the left would apply, shall also apply to them. Funny, that.

I mean....sure? But Mike Malloy was a scurrilous charlatan. His listeners were gullible fools. He peddled to them cherry-picked facts wrapped in yellow journalism and innuendo, and they swallowed it down because it confirmed what they wanted to believe about their political opponent.

You're right that conservatives are just as entitled to be charlatans and fools as liberals....but it's not exactly a cutting point, here.

Seems to me that some guy named Roger Stone wrote the book on the Bush crime family and titled it "The Bush Crime Family: The Inside Story of an American Dynasty": https://www.amazon.com/Bush-Crime-Family-American-...

Never heard of Mike Malloy but that Stone fella's pretty well known.

I wondered why I'd never heard of him. :)

Yes, I didn't file for 2 years, but I KNEW and I think Hunter Biden did to. If you file and pay the taxes, in the absence of serious indications of fraud, the Feds charge failure to pay and move on. The Feds want the money - tax, penalties, and interest. This isn't "no harm, no foul" as failure to pay can be hefty. So this is normal practice, but for you to find out, first - make 3 million dollars over a couple of years, then - don't file or pay, you will find out.
