Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Hunter Biden's "Art Dealer" Confesses That Joe Biden Met With HimPresumably they talked about the weather. In addition, Hunter Biden specifically asked the "art dealer" to tell him who was buying his "art." Remember, White House liars assured us that there could be no influence peddling, even though people were buying child-level watercolors for $300,000 a pop, because Hunter didn't know who the buyers were and therefore couldn't deliver political favors to them. (Unless the people buying influence just, you know, told the guy they were buying influence from that they were the purchasers of that influence.) But the "art dealer" said that the corrupt crackhead specifically asked to be informed who his patrons and influence-purchasers were.He says that in a second deal, Hunter Biden dropped this demand. But Hunter still knew (at least) 70% of the "art" buyers. I'd say that figure is actually 100%, because influencer-buyers do not remain anonymous. Hunter's "Sugar Brother" Kevin Morris, who Hunter lives with occasionally, donated $875,000 to the Hunter Biden Payoff Fund. Of course Joe Biden called the "art dealer" and met with him to discuss weather-related events. A Father's Love requires Joe Biden to constantly stroke people who are facilitating bribes to his son (and then to his own bank accounts). Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

Was the art worth that much, or was it for influence? That's an easy question to answer. Look at the resale market. If the art is worth that much, there will be people purchasing Hunter's art from the original buyers for higher amounts. "An original Monet" is worth what it's worth because Monet painted it, not because you purchased it directly from Monet. Is "an original Biden" the same?

Posted by: Paco at January 16, 2024 12:18 PM From Wiki: Floppy trunk syndrome (abbreviated FTS, also known as flaccid trunk paralysis) is a condition that causes trunk paralysis in African bush elephants. Initially observed in 1989, the syndrome primarily affected bull elephants in several select regions in Zimbabwe. Afflicted elephants exhibit paralysis in their trunk, often having to adapt to feed. The loss of their trunks' prehensile abilities results in malnutrition and possibly death. The condition is a result of degeneration of nerves in the trunk, and is suggested to be a result of either heavy metals or toxins. There is debate over whether the condition is reversible.

I'm all in favor of impeaching Biden. Multiple times in fact. But at this pace, he *presumably* would be impeached by this fall - just in time for elections. I would dare say that everyone would urge the GOPe to drop it as Biden won't be the nominee and just let him go. And all we'll get is a "We tried. Send money. Vote for us" from the GOPe.

They totally lost the trust of parents for family films. so, in order to get their trust back Disney is going to have to produce several great family friendly movies over the years that they 100% know will fail until their audience once again believes Disney products are family and kid friendly. I doubt anyone in Hollywood has that kind of mindset. So, Disney will shrink and produce small movies for their current audience of groomers and perverts. Maybe they can spin off the [parks and cruises somehow. Either that or go straight into teh ghey trannie porn. Probably, teh ghey trannie porn. You know they want to do that anyway.

Some of the older 2D artists were really bitter about it too. Pretty amazing how they did animated movies prior to computers.

Who had "The Bulwark turns on Joni Ernst using Snopes-levels of lack of reading comprehension" on their bingo card?
On Sunday, Iowa’s junior senator, Joni Ernst, who was propelled to a seat in the World’s Greatest Deliberative Body by her enthusiasm for castrating hogs, appeared on Meet the Press. WELKER: These are people, though, who attacked the building that you are in. You called them, "Insurrectionists," at the time. Would you not counsel Mr. Trump against pardoning them? At this point, Ernst came down with the same amnesia that has spread so virulently within the GOP ranks. SEN. JONI ERNST: No. I did not call them, "insurrectionists." I don't remember using that term. Welker, to her credit, fact-checked her. “That term was used in an op-ed by you in the Des Moines Register.” Back in January 2021, she had written: “Storming the U.S. Capitol in an attempt to influence elected officials — an insurrection as many have called it — is not, and will never be, a peaceful protest. It is anarchy — and America and her people cannot stand for it in any form". Uh...checkmate? If you're retarded, I guess?

That's a thing called a glottal stop. Yorkshire dialect will skip the "H" sound in "the" sometimes, or do away with the article altogether: "Put t' kettle on" or "Put kettle on, then."

I've been tracking gas prices (have to pay out of my pocket for my job and now drive over 100,000 miles/year). Guess what the lowest 2 years for gas prices have been in the last decade:
2016 and 2020. Hmmm ... wonder what those have in common with 2024? Yup. Also additional proof that our idiot overlords don't actually care about global warming since they're willing to turn it up when they want to win an election.

Even if some receipts leave out the artist, if all non-Hunter receipts do show the artist, one can draw a pretty big conclusion about where the money went if the receipt has no artist listed... Posted by: DoinTaxes at January 16, 2024 01:24 PM (++LjN) 380

The story starts with a great hook: archaeologists discovering a frozen human body in a glacier in France. It's been there for 40K years. And the corpse is wearing a modern digital wristwatch. . . .
