    We have the evidence and probable cause is what Police need,

    Did you have a relevant point to make? An admission is an admission. You think Hunter admitted to something he didnt do?

    You're ignoring his point about Weiss intentionally allowing the statute of limitations to expire on the most severe charges and income years. These also happen to be when Biden got the prosecutor investigating Burisma fired. Also, before telling someone they do not understand the charges you should make sure you cite the correct statute.

    We have emails of Hunter setting up multiple meetings with Antony Blinken (senior State Department official) and then sharing the meeting information with a fellow Burisma board member. You should research this before making such definitive statements.

    Meaningless and untrue. Dems commit the most crime but go uninvestigated and uninvited even when evidence is present. Branden is the perfect example.

    The plea deal fell apart not because Hunter thought he was innocent of the charges, but because the prosecutors got embarrassed when asked two basic questions by the judge:

    1. Have you ever seen a diversion agreement used to grant immunity to future charges or is this the first of its kind?

    2. Is this even Constitutional?

    The prosecution then changed their mind and said the diversion agreement doesn't give Hunter immunity to other charges. Hunter's counsel objected and said they were promised repeatedly that it would which is why they agreed to plea deal in the first place.

    The judge then said that since they don't agree on the terms anymore the offer cannot be accepted.

    The deal was dropped by the judge and there was no special counsel involved in the plea agreement, therefore, a special counsel could not have dropped the plea deal.

    You do understand that the reason Shokin was forced out, was because he was not, I repeat not investigating companies and corruption like Burisma.
    You know that right?

    That was the story Democrats told at the time, but we now know that was a lie. He may have been a bad prosecutor or slow walking some investigations. But, Burisma was upset by him and his poking of their organization. So a Burisma executive requested Hunter help make the investigation go away and several days later Joe Biden was in Ukraine demanding Shokin be fired.

    The latest internal reports received from FOIA requests show that the State Department was impressed with Ukraine's anti-corruption work under his leadership and recommended the loan be paid. In fact, they invited Shokin to come to DC right before Biden got him fired to speak to our state department about the work he was doing. They were so impressed they wanted him to deliver a speech so we could learn from him.

    EU records were also just released and they agreed that Ukraine met all of their anti-corruption benchmarks and were pleased with the progress they had made.

    John Kerry also praised Shokin.

    The original story is falling apart.

    Not according to Shokin himself. Should anyone believe Biden who is on record for lying his entire political career?

    We have clear evidence of the probable cause and FARA violations already. What more do you need?

    Irrelevant now. The ruling class won again. What is needed is power and a will to punish those who have broken the law. In this case, it was AG Garland who refused to enforce the law. Even if the Republicans get power, they lack the will to hold AG Garland legally responsible for his lawbreaking. Garland knows this, I know this and I imagine you know this as well. What do we do when the elites rub our noses in their corruption and there is literally nobody who will hold them responsible? The best I can tell is that we can bitch about it on social media. Not sure whining about it is going to accomplish much.

    First thing is to geg this corrupt President out of there, who knows what he sold out to the Chinese and Russians and a long list of entities which do NOT have our best interest in their hearts. Then we can prosecute.

    It also just so happens to be that Hunter Biden's senior official in the State Department when he was using his father's "brand" for influence become the Secretary of State when Biden got elected. It's possible he would have been picked anyway, but it certainly doesn't look good.

    No evidence of that. The evidence points to Repubs committing the most crimes.

    You know thats the Biden BS propagated by the compliant media to cover his corruption?

    2 months before Shokin was fired

    Court seizes property of ex-minister Zlochevsky in Ukraine – PGO
    The movable and immovable property of former Minister of Ecology and Natural Resources of Ukraine Mykola Zlochevsky in Ukraine has been seized, according to the press service of the Prosecutor General

    by Interfax-Ukraine | February 4, 2016, 6:40 pm
    Court seizes property of ex-minister Zlochevsky in Ukraine – PGO (kyivpost.com)

    Shokin’s office won a court order to seize Zlochevsky’s property on Feb. 2, 2016, the Kyiv Post reported at the time. Shokin was fired on March 29, purportedly due to his own corruption.
    Viktor Shokin was 'threat' to Burisma, says Hunter Biden partner Devon Archer (nypost.com)

    You dont have to lap the shiite up so eagerly. Shokin was fired and the new prosecutor closed the case and released Zlochevsky’s property.

    Don't know if you heard the latest from David Weiss yesterday? Might be hard to miss because it was behind closed doors, where all testimony damaging to the MAGA happens...

    SNIP
    Special Counsel David Weiss told the House Judiciary Committee on Tuesday that he was not "blocked" or "prevented from pursuing charges" against Hunter Biden in his years-long probe, and he maintained that "political considerations played no part" in his decision-making.

    Weiss appeared for a voluntary and "unprecedented" transcribed interview before the House Judiciary Committee on Tuesday morning to address "misunderstandings about the scope" of his "authority to decide where, when and whether to bring charges."

    "These processes did not interfere with my decision-making authority," Weiss said. "At no time was I blocked or otherwise prevented from pursuing charges or taking the steps necessary in the investigation by other United States attorneys, the Tax Division or anyone else at the Department of Justice."

    Dirtbag Merrick is the Bribed Biden Crime Family's Fixer.

    Fortunately the House is digging into this. Remember TEN PERCENT FOR THE BIG GUY?

    Watch it in action Chicom Bribe -> Joe's Pocket all concealed under a maze of 24 shell companies and personal payments among the 9 Biden Family checking accounts that money empties into. And as an added touch, labeled 'loans' so as to evade taxes. Remember this is the same sonofabitch who claims he wants to raise taxes on the rich, though he takes bribes and evades taxes.
    • Hunter threatens and Chi-Com Oligarch with Bribed Joe sitting right next to him.
    • Days later $5 million to a joint account controlled by Hunter Biden and a Chinese national.
    • Then $400k was moved into an account controlled by Hunter.
    • Hunter then wired $150,000 to another account controlled by Jim and Sara Biden.
    • Sara then withdrew $50,000 in cash and deposited it into her and Jim’s personal checking account
    • Sara and Jim then cut a check to Joe Biden for $40,000.
    10% for THE BIG GUY.

    'Hunter, facing a federal gun charge and two tax charges after a disgraceful five-year probe the Justice Department tried to quash.'

    https://nypost.com/2023/11/11/opini...bidens-presidency-is-about-to-get-even-worse/

    Dirtbag Merrick is still trying to bury the bodies.

    It's amazing how the Weiss testimony still hasn't leaked out to you guys yet... or maybe it has....
