A couple months ago the findings against Hunter Biden were nothing, not even worth taking to court, only under GOP pressure did the Trump appointed prosecutor take it to court. Now it seems like a big deal and 17 years (max). What happened? Why the change? Was new evidence found?

    It’s a good idea to treat both of these situations with the same level of scrutiny and skepticism-- good point.

    Trump properties have hosted thousands of visits by foreign leaders, Republican members of Congress, lobbyists, and political candidates, among others. As determined in an analysis by the Center for Responsive Politics, they’ve spent just under $19 million on use of Trump properties, most of which came after Trump already became president

    From what I’ve read from Comer’s report, it sounds like Hunter paid Joe three installments of a little over $1,000. It was also in repayment of a loan, so not really profit, per se. This seems to be mudslinging and pandering and instilling FUD around Biden leading up to the elections.

    This is all not to mention that Hunter doesn’t have a job in politics, which was another huge problem with Trump’s cabal.

    I think the nepotism and dealings with fraudsters and autocrats are deeply concerning, but Biden has yet to be implicated. His son rightfully admitting to and paying for his crimes, repaying his debts doesn’t strike me as the most pressing issue at the moment. Are we really worried that the millionaire president is being bribed in 4 figure sums by foreign agents?
