Here are my thoughts:
There has been so much favorable treatment for Hunter Biden from both the FBI and the DOJ over the past few years, that … with everything Trump is going through, they’ve uniquely lost confidence from the American public in the DOJ (record lows). The overwhelming majority of Americans think Joe Biden is covering for Hunter, and that he’s using the DOJ and FBI to do it.
A special council is way long-past due at this point, but I believe it’s completely irrelevant now. We are a little over a year away from the Presidential election, and they can easily drag this out for 3 years like they did with the special council they assigned to investigate Trump. By this point, they can do their political side-show about Trump running his mouth after 2020, which will affect the intended damage to his campaign heading into the election. Assigning a special council on Hunter Biden allows the Democrats to now control the information flow… in that the special council decides when, where, and how information gets out … also knowing that the major media conglomerates will likely not cover it with any real enthusiasm like they will Trump. It also takes the pressure of Joe Biden, because now the focus remains ENTIRELY on Hunter, particularly at a time where every day, more evidence has been revealed through whistleblowers that Joe Biden has been involved in literally every part of it. I mean, did we expect a crackhead would be making these business deals? More importantly, the government can now blankly say, “we do not discuss ongoing investigations” when asked … whether that’s in a Congressional hearing, or by reporters.

For now. But it's obvious that Brandon is armpit-deep in it, too.
Kind of like Ghislaine Maxwell being convicted of sex trafficking to... absolutely nobody. We all know better. It will come out, at some point.

I don't know about the impact of that Hunter Biden meme that was just posted by "Wichita."
Considering how it connects to this:
Or maybe the Hunter Biden "MyKilo Guy" is supposed to be a rebuttal or counterpoint to "MAGA-Mike Lindell" ..?
Edit to add:
I lifted that image from The Atlantic.

I get such a kick from The Atlantic. There is so much pearl clutching there, or more correctly... avocado toast guarding.

Heh.
The Atlantic.....Come for the pearl clutching and stay for the lunatic, wild, hyperbole of Lil' Annie Applebaum;
"THE MYPILLOW GUY REALLY COULD DESTROY DEMOCRACY
In the time I spent with Mike Lindell, I came to learn that he is affable, devout, philanthropic—and a clear threat to the nation."
Their unintentional comedy and buffoonery is almost always proportional to how serious Leftist propagandists take themselves.

MSNBC prime time anchor Alex Wagner opens this brief (4 minutes) on-air segment by spotlighting the current woes of the MyPillow guy Mike Lindell. A pillow manufacturing and sales business that's trending downwards. The specter of unfavorable judgements that could be coming against him in civil defamation lawsuits. The congenitally genial broadcast journo returns to Mike Lindell at the end of the segment with a bookend gibe at the fading pillow industry magnate's falling fortunes.
Definitely moves the needle on the old fashioned, analog schadenfreude meters that were once commonplace. I still have one. The semicircular dial, delineated in SSU or Schadenfreude Saturation Units, from 0 to 100. I got a 28, which is substantial.[This message has been edited by rinselberg (edited 08-12-2023).]

The choice of the special counsel is suspect as well. It's the same guy that agreed to the sweetheart deal for HB prior to the judge throwing the deal out!

Did the federal judge reject the plea agreement because she thought it was a "sweetheart deal" for Hunter Biden? Was it that, or was it that the judge realized that HB would have been entering into an agreement the details of which HB did not fully understand, because of a breakdown in communications somewhere in the chain that connected the DOJ prosecutors with HB's defense lawyers, and HB's defense lawyers with HB himself?
| quote | Barbara McQuade, who served as U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Michigan from 2010 to 2017, said the scuttling of the plea agreement and the prospect of a trial are probably what prompted Weiss to ask for special counsel status, which frees him to refile charges against [Hunter] Biden in another jurisdiction [than Delaware].
“It could mean just these same charges or something more serious, and it’s probably more likely to be something more serious,” McQuade said in an interview. “In my practice, it’s very rare to file criminal charges for unpaid taxes—that’s usually resolved as a civil matter.” |
