Archer Hits The Mark
Hunter Biden’s former business associate, Devon Archer, testified before House investigators yesterday for several hours about Joe Biden’s connection to Hunter’s foreign business schemes. Here’s what we know so far:
-
Archer testified that Hunter Biden put his father on the phone with his foreign clients “more than 20 times” in order to “sell the brand.” That “brand” isn’t Coca-Cola or McDonald’s. It’s “Biden, Inc.”
-
Archer testified that then-Vice President Joe Biden “attended a business dinner” at Café Milano in Washington, D.C., with Elena Baturina, a billionaire Russian oligarch. Baturina would later give Hunter Biden’s firm $3.5 million. Curiously, Baturina managed to avoid sanctions by the Biden Administration after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
-
Archer also testified that Hunter Biden, along with the top executives of Burisma, “called D.C.” to get help from the Obama Administration in firing the Ukrainian prosecutor who was investigating Burisma. We know how that turned out. Joe Biden threatened to withhold $1 billion in foreign aid unless the prosecutor was fired, and he was.
We know that Burisma executives made it crystal clear to Hunter Biden that his “ultimate purpose” was to protect the company from investigation.
We know that a confidential source told the FBI that Burisma executives admitted that Hunter Biden was “hired to protect us, through his father, from all kinds of problems.”
And we know that Joe Biden bragged about getting the prosecutor fired.
That’s clear abuse of power, and an obvious example of pay-to-play corruption. Joe Biden abused his position as vice president because a foreign company was paying his son big bucks.
Constitutional law Professor Jonathan Turley summarized yesterday’s bombshell testimony by saying:
“The one thing that we can’t do is just walk away. We have to find out the full story here. I think this is shaping up to be one of the greatest corruption scandals in the history of Washington, and that is saying a lot.”
About That Deal. . .
House Republicans are launching an investigation of the Justice Department’s “sweetheart plea deal” for Hunter Biden.
Committee Chairmen Jim Jordan (Judiciary), James Comer (Oversight) and Jason Smith (Ways and Means) sent a joint letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland yesterday demanding he explain why the department signed off on such a ludicrously lenient plea agreement.
Under questioning from Judge Maryellen Noreika, federal prosecutors admitted that Hunter’s plea deal was “unprecedented.”
Media Malfeasance
Predictably, the “lamestream media” largely ignored or totally distorted Devon Archer’s testimony yesterday. According to one analysis, CNN and MSNBC mentioned Donald Trump more than 750 times yesterday, while mentioning Devon Archer just 48 times.
Meanwhile, some left-wing spin would have you believe that Hunter Biden put his father on the phone with his clients just to “talk about the weather.” That doesn’t pass the straight face test!
Not surprisingly, the New York Times dismissed Archer’s testimony, writing, “It has long been known that the elder Mr. Biden at times interacted with his son’s business partners.”
Really? Someone better tell Joe Biden that. He insisted that he “never discussed” Hunter’s business dealings with him!
It’s useful to remember this the next time you see a poll showing 40% or more of the country backing Joe Biden. Half the country isn’t watching Fox News or Newsmax. They’re not reading the information we are reporting to you!
Barack Obama insists that the division in America is because people are getting two different views of reality. And the left wants Fox and other conservative outlets shut down because they are preventing everyone from being brainwashed.
It’s no coincidence that the radical left, which can’t define gender anymore, is all in on censorship. The left has lost its grip on reality and is lying to us about virtually everything!
The Times Sounds The Alarm
There was an unusual moment of candor from the New York Times, which just released the results of its first 2024 national poll.
The latest New York Times/Siena College poll finds:
- Biden’s approval rating is just 39%.
- In the Democrat primary, Biden gets just 64% of the vote.
- And in a 2024 rematch, Biden and Trump are tied at 43%.
The Intolerant Left
Many reasonable people, including many well-meaning Christians, keep falling for left-wing arguments about “tolerance.” They say, “Live and let live. Why are you such a hater?”
But it’s all a lie meant to shame you. And once they have shut down the debate, they use the full power of government to make you bow.
The left often says, “Nobody is forcing you to get an abortion, so don’t stop me from getting one.” Many people bought into that argument and still do.
But now the Biden Administration is using your tax dollars, including our national defense budget, to subsidize abortions.
We’ve seen it with the marriage issue, too. Many people said, “It doesn’t impact me if two men get married.”
But over and over again, we’ve seen religious business owners dragged into court and ordered to provide services for same-sex weddings.
And because of our inability to hold that line, now we’re fighting over men in women’s bathrooms and boys in girls’ sports.
Now the argument is, “Why do you hate trans children so much?”
In short order, that becomes a 16 year-old boy demanding to change in the same locker room as your daughter. If you don’t agree with that, you’re the bigot and your daughter will be suspended.
All of this may seem like a broken record, but it bears repeating: In this great battle over what America will consider acceptable and normal, only one side can win. No society has “moral neutrality” as its prevailing value. Every law in every culture is someone’s idea of what is right and what is wrong.
Whoever wins this ongoing conflict will teach our children what to believe about life and death, love and sex, freedom and slavery.
Meanwhile, the Biden Administration has zero tolerance for your religious values. They are actually willing to punish hungry children at private religious schools unless those schools sacrifice their children to the demands of the radical LGBTQ agenda.
This is an outrageous assault on religious liberty, and it should be a warning to everyone who values common sense and normalcy that the intolerant, totalitarian left has no intention of letting us “live and let live.”
You will bow or else!
