Jonathan Turley on Democrat Partisan Media's Spin That No Money Has Yet Been Proven to Have Gone to Joe Biden: You're Aware That Mafiosi Routinely Direct Paymemts to Their Family Members So the Feds Can't Touch It, Right?

Actually he does not make that analogy but that's basically what he's talking about.

How Washington Is Attempting to Make $20 Million Disappear as an "Illusion"
I previously wrote a column marveling at the success of the Bidens in pulling off one of the neatest tricks in political history. I analogized it to how Houdini used to make his 10,000-pound elephant Jennie disappear on a stage in front of a live audience. The media and political establishment is now striving to top that performance by declaring $20 million in payments to Biden family members as an "illusion" of influence. At the heart of this scandal is the BFF, the Biden Family Fund.
Here is the column:
This week, President Joe Biden responded to calls for greater access to the media with a blockbuster interview with . . . the Weather Channel.
The interview immediately prompted critics to speculate that the president wanted to continue to talk about the weather -- the same claim made after the disclosure of his participation in various dinners with his son's foreign associates.
As the number of these dinners, meetings and outings increase, Joe Biden appears to have covered more meteorological subjects than Al Roker.
The problem is that conditions are worsening in Washington.
...
For weeks, Joe Biden's prior claims have been collapsing as his allies in the media and Congress struggle for an alternative spin on these new disclosures.
The president's denials of any knowledge of his son's foreign dealings finally have been exposed as a lie.
Even the Washington Post has acknowledged Biden lied when he insisted that Hunter never made any money in China.
It was always a boldfaced falsehood (and a confusing claim from a man who insisted that he had no knowledge of his son's foreign dealings).
But the testimony of associate Devon Archer and new bank records forced the paper and others to recognize the falsehood.
There is also the confirmation that Biden's long denials that he attended key dinners with Hunter's business associates were false.
Most notably, the media are grudgingly admitting that Hunter was openly selling influence peddling and access to his father as part of what Archer called "selling the brand."
The final line of defense is now that Hunter Biden was selling access to Joe Biden but it was an "illusion." The reason, they claim, is there is no evidence of direct payments to Joe and Jill Biden.
There is, of course, nothing "illusionary" about tens of millions moving to Hunter and other family members.
But political spins are often built on illusions. The latest is that Joe Biden only benefits from these payments if they were directly deposited in his accounts.

For a family that Hunter explained was "the best" at this type of dealing, it is absurd to expect a deposit slip from a corrupt Ukrainian official to the account of Joe and Jill Biden, one of the most vulnerable accounts in the world to review and monitoring.
These claims, moreover, ignore emails discussing Hunter's and his father's use of joint accounts to pay for expenses, including how one account was used to pay Joe's taxes. There is also Hunter's complaint that he was using half of his earnings to support his father. Indeed, one trusted FBI informant said that, in planning a bribe, one foreign figure was told to avoid direct payments to Joe Biden. Today, that is as amateurish as an envelope of cash and the Bidens have been in the business of influence peddling for decades.
Responding to the new evidence, Washington Post columnist Phillip Bump led the charge in asking: Where's the bribe?
In other words, as long as Hunter got the luxury car, Joe didn't benefit or receive a bribe.

Here is the Washington Post's insane lunatic liar -- who postures as a truth-teller and "fact" -checker -- claiming there was no bribe if Joe Biden isn't photographed holding an envelope marked "CHINA BRIBE MONEY $$$$."

Philip Bump
@pbump
The right would like to pretend that James Comer didn't make a very specific allegation of bribery for which he keeps not presenting evidence, but that is, in fact, what happened.

That's the way this truth-teller dispenses with Joe Biden's repeated lies on the subject, and proof that $21 million flowed into the accounts of Biden family members, including those of his minor grandchildren.

Bump believes that criminals leave detailed and explicit documentation of their criminal schemes on desks, like the Monorail Man did on the Simpsons:

Oh, and of course, Philip Bump accused Trump of using his children as conduits for bribery with no evidence whatsoever:

Back to Turley:

...
Not even millions to Biden children and grandchildren would seem to satisfy Bump as an inducement for the then-vice president.
Yet the greatest illusion is the claim Joe Biden would only be motivated by a direct payment to one of his accounts.
Biden clearly benefited from millions going to the Biden Family Fund (BFF). Even grandchildren received some of the transfers funneled through a labyrinth of accounts.
Joe Biden is 80 years old. Despite holding only government jobs in his career, he is worth an estimated $8 million.
Forbes reported he earned $17.3 million over the four years he was out of office. He will never spend his fortune. Any additional money would have to pass to his descendants.
For most wealthy people in their final years, the challenge is not raising more money but getting that money to your children without heavy taxes or delays.
This money was going to his BFF. That is a benefit and probably of greater value to a man of Joe Biden's age and wealth.

Biden, the idiot moron, is also interested in establishing a Kennedy-like political dynasty. I know that sounds absurd, but Beau Biden, of course, was supposed to inherit Biden's senate seat.

And Turley forgot to mention: Hunter Biden's emails mention him "holding 10% for The Big Guy." I believe that referred to millions received from the Chinese intelligence front company CEFC. Five (5) separate individuals have confirmed that Joe Biden was "the Big Guy" referred to.

MSNBC: If Joe Biden Want to Win, He Needs to Take Out His Secret Weapon: Kamala Harris

That's the gist of it, anyway.

The White Man needs to Position Kamala for Success, Stat!

MSNBC
@MSNBC
Joe Biden has effectively kept Vice President Kamala Harris on the bench for most of his term, but @themaxburns says she's one of his campaign's most valuable assets, and he needs to give her free rein to do what she does best.

So you want her to tour the country sucking off every persuadable male voter? Or what? What is she "best" at, exactly?

And do you know who's even more of a Charisma Tornado than Kamala Harris?

Her dishwater cvck husband.

Megyn Kelly

@megynkelly
David Weiss is the same guy who let the most serious charges against Hunter expire, even tho Hunter's counsel was offering to extend the statute of limitations.

David Weiss is the same guy who tried to mislead the DC fed judge (she caught him) into accepting a plea deal with Hunter that would have given HB immunity on EVERYTHING.

It is because the only way he knew how to launder money was the same way gansters do. It all goes to people in his orbit and they just give him what he wants whenever he wants it.

Even she doesn't believe that, of course. These people make a lot of money pretending this country isn't what it is. It'd be funny if people didn't keep listening to people like her and Turley. But they do, so it's just sad.

In which I cite the statute: 26 CFR § 1.162-18 - Illegal bribes and kickbacks

(2) Indirect payment. For purposes of this paragraph, an indirect payment to an individual shall include any payment which inures to his benefit or promotes his interests, regardless of the medium in which the payment is made and regardless of the identity of the immediate recipient or payor. Thus, for example, payment made to an agent, relative, or independent contractor of an official or employee, or even directly into the general treasury of a foreign country of which the beneficiary is an official or employee, may be treated as an indirect payment to the official or employee, if in fact such payment inures or will inure to his benefit or promotes or will promote his financial or other interests.

42 You know, when you're getting bribed, the payer doesn't actually bring the cash in a round, cloth bag with a giant dollar sign on it. Neither does it have a note stating, "Here's the cash payment, Mr. President, for the favor you're going to do for me, Chairman Xi, that's illegal and no one can know about."

64 This sort of blatant bad faith bullshit theater of "well hurr durr, if you says he took a bribe, why doesn't his bank account ledger have the bribe sitting there in broad daylight" is pretty emblematic of how and why coexistence with these people isn't in the cards.

We know they're full of shit. They know we know they're full of shit. They're quite blatantly planning on crooked prosecutors charging anyone who tries to push the matter, and then killing anyone managing to effectively object to the arrests and prosecutions. There is a much shorter distance from where we are now to the establishment just killing opponents with drones than people think.

77 "In which I cite the statute: 26 CFR § 1.162-18 - Illegal bribes and kickbacks

(2) Indirect payment. For purposes of this paragraph, an indirect payment to an individual shall include any payment which inures to his benefit or promotes his interests, regardless of the medium in which the payment is made and regardless of the identity of the immediate recipient or payor. Thus, for example, payment made to an agent, relative, or independent contractor of an official or employee, or even directly into the general treasury of a foreign country of which the beneficiary is an official or employee, may be treated as an indirect payment to the official or employee, if in fact such payment inures or will inure to his benefit or promotes or will promote his financial or other interests.

132 NPR has a story about how hospitals and universities are “nudging” their employees to eat vegan food in the cafeteria by saying you’re gonna save the erf by eating this slop. And the left wing employees are obliging. Those employees were saying LOLGF when their employers were urging them to go meat free for health reasons. But now that they’ve made this a “go meat free to save the erf” campaign it’s having a lot of success.

Now yiu May say whatever I don’t work in a hospital or university who cares? Well you should because these methods are part of the greater WEF war on meat. And it’s coming to your place of business soon enough.

And the end goal of course is that when enough people happily eat bugs and plants, all the meat options will go away completely.

||Rep. Greg Seube of Florida filed articles of impeachment against President Joe Biden over his involvement in his son’s corrupt foreign business dealings on Friday.

“It’s long past time to impeach Joe Biden,” Steube said in a press release. “He has undermined the integrity of his office, brought disrepute on the Presidency, betrayed his trust as President, and acted in a manner subversive of the rule of law and justice at the expense of America’s citizens. The evidence continues to mount by the day – the Biden Crime Family has personally profited off Joe’s government positions through bribery, threats, and fraud. Joe Biden must not be allowed to continue to sit in the White House, selling out our country.”||

241 Just to violate the math rule , 500 a month with the employer matching 50% = 9000 yr.

9000 yr at 6% compounded annually over 50 years is about 3 million if my back of the napkin math is right.

Posted by: Martini Farmer at August 11, 2023 06:24 PM (Q4IgG)

The legal weed growers are losing their ass. One guy not too far from me, got all the permits, built the fence and the security perimeter and then...nothing. I can't see why they would go broke as we live in California and it's legal to grow your own, why would anyone buy it than can grow it? They still eradicate illegal grows all the time.

I know that and you know and everyone here knows that but proving it in court is the hard part. There's a reason they sent Capone to prison for tax violations and not murder or racketeering.

Lying about his school records, stealing other people's speeches and delivering them as his own (a lie!), claiming he won the elections when all he did was sit in his basement while Trump gathered around him enormous crowds. Biden will lie till he dies, unrepentant, and God will have no mercy on his fake cheating Catholic soul.
