House Republicans Probe FBI’s Sudden About-Face On Confidential Source

[Marener]

What makes you so damn sure of THAT? Congress hasent even seen Joe Biden's bank records yet. Do you honestly think that with his brother and son collecting money all over the world from corrupt people, and Hunter admitting that he pays his fathers bills, you honestly think they arent going to track any money back to Joe once they see his banks accounts? You think they wont find a financial benefit for Joe in some way, even if its just Hunter paying to remodel his house, or redo the roof, etc? Does that seem very likely to you?

Again, this is why Joe will be pardoning himself and his family in a few months and then democrats wont be able to deny it anymore. You threw your credibility out the window for a temporary benefit. In the long run you will all be exposed as frauds and morons who are completely unable to recognize the obvious. You will be known as the party who protected the most corrupt politician in US history.

Wait, I thought you were saying that they would convict on the bank records alone and now you’re saying we haven’t even seen them?

So you’re just speculating.

On Hunter and Jims bank records. Joes records will eventually come too. Be patient.

House Republicans Probe FBI’s Sudden About-Face On Confidential Source​

Exclusive: House Republicans Probe FBI's About-Face On Smirnov

House Republicans are demanding the FBI turn over records related to the federal government's indictment of a once-trusted CHS.

House Republicans are demanding the FBI turn over records related to the federal government’s indictment of a once-trusted confidential human source (CHS), according to a joint congressional letter shared exclusively with The Federalist.
On Friday, House Oversight Chairman James Comer and Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan sent the letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray to request documents related to Special Counsel David Weiss’s indictment of CHS Alexander Smirnov. Smirnov was charged two weeks ago for allegedly making false statements about President Joe Biden’s involvement in a criminal bribery scheme with a Ukrainian oligarch. Republican lawmakers, however, are left with questions about the FBI’s sudden about-face on the source they once highly regarded.
“Prior to the indictment, the FBI allowed Mr. Smirnov to serve as a CHS for over 14 years and earn a six-figure income, while maintaining ‘extensive and extremely recent’ foreign intelligence contacts,” lawmakers wrote. “Only after Mr. Smirnov reported that President Joe Biden accepted a bribe from a Ukrainian energy company in exchange for using his official position to oust the Ukrainian Prosecutor General did the FBI apparently take a hard look at this CHS.”

Commentary:
Garland's DoJ needed to quash the Joe Bribe-'em problems by indicting Smirnov for lying about the amount of bribes that Hunter and Joe got from the Ukraine.
Of Course It is only fair. After all, didn't they arrest Christopher Steele and charge him with fabricating his story about Trump's role in the Russia collusion scandal....
What? They never indicted Steele....? Oh Nevermind...
Smirinov knows where the bodies are....
Arresting and jailing Smirinov is a clumsy and desperate measure by the Biden crime family. It’s obvious they want to keep him on ice and away from the impeachment inquiry. The DOJ and FBI continue to embarrass themselves as Biden’s dogs.
Disgraceful. --- Remember That Smirinov did not commit suicide.

The FBI isn't turning ANYTHING over to Congress until they've finishedh prosecuting this guy.

Secondly, the FBI told Congress from the very first time that Republicans demanded that confidential informant's report that the information wasn't valid, and the "source" was compromised. Republicans then claimed "coverup" and said the FBI was withholding this evidence.

This was NEVER a winning hand for Republicans but they refuse to foldd it. They just keep doubling down on losing.

On Hunter and Jims bank records. Joes records will eventually come too. Be patient.

So you think you can convict Joe Biden based on Hunter and Jim’s records.

That seems like a stretch. What charges again?

It’s not tax evasion. It’s not bribery. What is it?

They have 10,000 pages of bank records already. Speaking as a former banker, there is absolutely nothing in the any bank records that would convict Biden of anything. Banks have lists of cheques and deposits made. That's it. And who has signing authority on company accounts.

What banks don't have is copies of contracts, invoices, or business records which indicate the sources of these funds, or the reasons for the payments. And Congress cannot just subpoena bank records without "probable cause", and in the case of the Biden Family, there is absolutely NO PROBABLE CAUSE.

You have this thing called the Constitution which protects American citizens from "unreasonable search or seizure". The Republican Party's need to smear the sitting President in order to re-elect the twice impeached, twice convicted fraud artist, tax evader, and sexual preditor, is not sufficient probable cause to obtain bank or business records.

If Joe financially benefitted in any way whatsoever, he will be brought up on bribery charges. If Joes son benefitted from Joe's influence in any way, Joe will be brought up on bribery charges.

You dems seem to think its a big mystery that wont ever be solved. I promise you it will be solved VERY quickly once Biden is a civilian.

You have to specifically the financial benefit to a specific official act.

That can’t be done with bank records alone, which is what you were claiming.

Because now you’re backtracking from that claim and relying on information that you merely think exists.

Roof repairs paid by Hunter right after he received money from China would cover it. I suspect they are going to find more than just roof repairs though.

The bank records will speak for themselves. Then there's the second laptop seized by the FBI.
Denial by Hunter, Joe and James is burdened by what's found in the "Cloud" that cannot be erased or changed.

Hunter Biden had second laptop seized in raid on Massachusetts doctor

Hunter Biden, the 50-year-old son of Joe Biden, had one laptop handed over to the FBI in 2019. On Friday it emerged that a second laptop had been obtained by the US government, in February, then returned.

Cover what? It’s not illegal to pay for a roof repair. You need something more.

The bank records don’t “speak for themselves”. All they show is money moving from one account to another.

 

[Godboy]

If you use political power to get money for your son, who then pays for repairs on your home with that money, then YOU benefitted from the scheme financially. Not that it matters. Just getting your son money is illegal, so you would get a bribery charge anyway.

 

[Marener]

If you use political power to get money for your son, who then pays for repairs on your home with that money, then YOU benefitted from the scheme financially.

”Using political power to get money for your son” depends largely on what you mean by “using political power”.

Whatever it means, there’s no way to prove that when bank records alone.

Which is what you claimed.

Firing the Ukraine prosecutor is an example that will sink Joe. Its one of the first things he will pardon himself and his family for after he loses the election.

So you’re back to the story told by the FBI source now indicted for lying about the bribe.

You’re going to need some actual evidence of this supposed bribe, and it’s definitely not in the bank records which you claimed would be all you needed for conviction of ”dozens” of crimes.

 

[Godboy]

So you’re back to the story told by the FBI source now indicted for lying about the bribe.

No, im going by Biden's own words. He admitted to the crime unwittingly because, he is a senile fucking idiot who was trying to brag, but he fucked up. Its going to cost him.

It’s not a crime to set conditions for our foreign aid to other countries. Joe Biden was a government policy maker. That’s what they do.

It is if youre doing it for financial reasons. You are aware of the Hunter/Burisma emails, texts and phone calls and their timelines related to that move by Joe, right? Aint no jury on Earth going to look at that timeline and NOT think Joe did this for financial reasons. Thats why he will write up pardons for these crimes.

 

[Lesh]

Ohhh, you want me to detail all the evidence gathered the past 3 years? Weve played this game before. I do a fuck ton of work and then you dismiss it all with a 1 sentence troll post. No thanks man. Im not interested in that pointless exercise.

Biden will be pardoning him and his family for these crimes just a few months from now, THEN you wont be able to deny anything anymore.

Surrender accepted.

And if you are talking about Hunter (the pardon mention) , no one cares

All of that turned out to be bullshit
