    His taxes are private, yet that guy Maddow did an entire show on them and broke the law in doing so.

    His taxes are huge, thousands of pages. Would you understand them or take CNNs word for what’s in them? The IRS doesn’t seem to mind them, why should we?

    It’s hypocritical for trump supporters to complain about a presidential candidate who doesn’t keep promises. Like releasing their tax returns or not playing golf.

    I was correcting someone who said trump is a private citizen. He is not.

    I did not know Hunter Biden was going to be President?

    I do not think Biden is even going to hire his children to work at the white house

    Trump is the one into nepotism

    Sure, I'd call that a very significant minority holding. You?

    Yes, yes he did, and you watch. They will emerge, offered up by him, before the 20th January, 2021, just like Humpty said they would. He will deliver on his word you know.

    There are ties between the Pelosi and Newsom families — both prominent California families — that go back several decades, as outlined in a recent commentary piece published by the nonprofit journalism venture CalMatters. But Nancy Pelosi is not Gavin Newsom’s aunt. In reality, Nancy Pelosi’s brother-in-law, Ron Pelosi, was married to the late Belinda Barbara Newsom, who was Gavin Newsom’s aunt.

    Pelosi’s brother-in-law was the uncle (through marriage) of Gavin Newsom. But Barbara Newsom and Ron Pelosi divorced decades ago, in 1977, and Barbara Newsom died in 2008.


    In other words:



    Embarrassingly pathetic zombie lie. [​IMG]

    So - you are concerned that the son of the president elect owns 10% of an investment firm that is run by Chinese nationals (not the government) but you don’t care that dirty donny trump gets $1.9 million per year directly from a Chinese state owned company?

    Well if Humpty understands them, there is a fair chance kids in kindergarten will. Fact is, he will not understand them himself, but I am sure there are many tax experts out there who will be able to tell us what they all demonstrate.

    It could be said that people who complained for 4 years about broken promises are suddenly giving a person who’s breaking a promise a pass. Even AOC is pissed that Biden seems to already be backing off on his Uber socialist positions.

    Hunter Biden has stated he will begin divesting his ownership.

    What does owning 10% mean to you? It does not even make him are major stockholder by definition. He is not listed as an executive or a board member. I have yet to see any evidence that he has any type of influence with the company or it direction nor would I really expect someone with a 10% holdings to have any in most situations. I am curious on how much that 10% ownership in the company cost him and when that investment was made. Is it still 10% now or was it when he invested?

    I totally agree, Hunter Biden is totally unfit to become president.

    The RW must be going crazy knowing that they cannot find any dirt on Joe Biden, so they have to attack Hunter Biden who is not going to be in any way associated with the White House. It's like the last 4 years have brainwashed them into believing if you vote for a president, you get their entire family appointed in leadership positions.

    Authoritarian regressives are easily reeled in by such obvious bullshit.

    It could be said that people who didn’t give a **** for 4 years about broken promises are suddenly hypercritical of a person who’s breaking a promise.
    See how that works both ways?

    On topic - it was a silly promise for Biden to make. He should only make promises that are within his own control, not make promises that require the consent of other adults even if they are his children.

    We can certainly expect the Biden administration not to be corrupt although that will be pretty easy following on from the most corrupt administration in the country’s history. Also no nepotism - again a complete change from the existing administration. And finally no foreign commercial entanglements from POTUS. Also a complete change.

    Why are you concerned about Hunter Biden having a 10% share in a Chinese company that is not state-owned, when dirty donny has been receiving $1.9 million per year from the Chinese government throughout his presidency?

    In contrast to the current POTUS, who is helping himself and his loser children?

    You still haven’t commented on how H Biden’s investment is worse than dirty donny bonespurs getting $1.9 million per year from the Chinese government throughout his presidency.
