Hunter Biden Sought State Department Help for Ukrainian Company
After President Biden dropped his re-election bid, his administration released records showing that while he was vice president, his son solicited U.S. government assistance.
Why did the UK freeze 23 million of hunters company’s money for money laundering?

LMAOROG. Sure it was Biden who was "flexible" with Putin, LMAOROG. How's that Cuban blockade of Cheeto's going?
WHY BLANKET PARDONS?
Based on reports from the first 100 days of his second term in 2025 and into 2026, President Donald Trump has undertaken a sweeping campaign of "retribution" against perceived political enemies, targeting over 100 individuals and organizations through government powers. This campaign has involved the use of Justice Department investigations, ICE detentions, revocation of security clearances, and firings of officials deemed disloyal.
Yeah, not sure but kinda think THAT might be it? But Cheeto LOVES some blanket pardon's you know?
The People Trump Pardoned Are on a Crime Spree
..His self-serving pardons are so numerous that public attention cannot keep up with them. It is a version of the strategy that his former adviser Steve Bannon has described as “flood the zone”: Do so much so fast that people cannot follow the consequences.
He has created a veritable pardon industry, in which people with White House connections accept payments from wealthy convicts. Among those on whom he has bestowed freedom are dozens of people convicted of fraud. He has also pardoned Juan Orlando Hernández, a former president of Honduras, who helped traffic hundreds of tons of cocaine into the United States, and Ross Ulbricht, who was serving a life sentence for running Silk Road, a sprawling criminal enterprise that sold drugs. There seems to be no crime too ugly for a Trump pardon.
Worst of all, Mr. Trump granted clemency on the first day of his second term to everyone who stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. He did not distinguish between rioters who were relatively peaceful and those who attacked police officers, as Vice President JD Vance said should be the case. About 1,500 Jan. 6 rioters received a clean slate, regardless of their actions.
The results have been disastrous. At least 12 of the pardoned rioters have since been charged with other serious crimes, including child molestation, assault, harassment, murder plots and charges related to a vicious dog attack. The outcome was predictable. Critics, including this board, had warned that Mr. Trump’s pardons would embolden the rioters by signaling that crime has no consequences.
One does not have to be a criminologist to predict that people who commit a violent act and are absolved of any punishment might become repeat offenders.

Hey, lighten up, got an illegal bigly war to pay for!Somehow, I'm not surprised..it seems that spending other people's money has been our President's go-to since childhood.
It's clear that Trump, like all the others before him, only give lip service to reducing the debt.
The national debt just crossed $39 trillion—almost doubling since Trump vowed to erase it | Fortune
Budget experts agree on one thing. The debt is on an "unsustainable" trajectory.fortune.com
The United States national debt crossed $39 trillion for the first time Tuesday, arriving at the grim milestone less than five months after it first hit $38 trillion in late October—a pace of accumulation that budget watchdogs and academic economists are now calling, with unusual unanimity, “unsustainable.”
The milestone, confirmed in Wednesday’s Daily Treasury Statement, lands amid a politically charged moment: it comes roughly two weeks before the ten-year anniversary of President Trump’s 2016 campaign promise to eliminate the national debt within eight years. Instead, the gross national debt has roughly doubled since Trump first took office—it was $19.9 trillion in January 2017.
“Our moral duty to the taxpayer requires us to make our Government leaner and more accountable,” President Trump wrote in March 2017, as he issued an executive order directing OMB Director Mick Mulvaney to submit a comprehensive plan to reorganize Executive Branch departments and agencies in order to keep his promise to put in place common sense reforms to eliminate waste so that the Government better serves all Americans. “We’re going to do more with less,” Trump said at the time.
“As America soars past $39 trillion in debt, we must recognize this alarming rate of growth and the significant financial burden we are putting on the next generation,” Michael A. Peterson, CEO of the Peter G. Peterson Foundation, told Fortune in a statement. “Borrowing trillion after trillion at this rapid pace with no plan in place is the definition of unsustainable.”
Well yes Biden was part of the admin that made being more flexible with Putin their policy after getting his help in 2012 election
The fact you continue to ignore that reality, explains a lot

So you got NOTHING on Hunter, but the comp he was a board member of, NOT in the linked article, had money frozen? AND?
ANY DAY NOW COMER IS GOING TO COME UP WITH THE SMOKING GUN ON THE BIDEN'S, I JUST KNOW IT
Um he was convicted of crimes, and need a blanket pardon for over a decade for crimes against the United States
That’s akin to finding the bodies under Gacy’s house…you clowns (no pun intended) still claiming he’s innocent

G.O.P.-Led Senate Panel Affirms Russia Attacked Election, and Urges Action
In a report, the committee backed up the conclusions of the intelligence community, the special counsel and researchers that Russia mounted a broad campaign to interfere in the election. A Russian troll farm central to the election campaign supported “Donald Trump at the direction of the Kremlin,” the committee said.
The panel said Congress should consider new disclosure requirements for political ads online, which unlike television or radio ads do not need to carry information about who paid for them.

LMAOROG, Sure
Hunter Biden was found guilty on all three felony counts in his federal gun trial in June 2024, related to lying about drug use on a federal form while buying a gun. Additionally, he pleaded guilty in September 2024 to nine federal tax charges.
Donald Trump was convicted on all 34 felony counts of falsifying business records, his business was convicted of 17 felonies for tax evasion, he was found guilty sexual abuse and defamation
Gacy huh, what 's Cheeto?

President Barack Obama was caught on camera on Monday assuring outgoing Russian President Dmitry Medvedev that he will have "more flexibility" to deal with contentious issues like missile defense after the U.S. presidential election.
ANYTHING ELSE?
S
1) I didn’t hear Obama say that
2) yes we are aware Obama backed off nato defensive programs for Russia
And that helps your point how?
