Republicans announce their first three impeachment witnesses in the Joe Biden bribery impeachment hearings.

The House Oversight Committee will hold its first impeachment hearing into President Joe Biden this week and interview three witnesses, who will provide their expertise in connection with allegations President Joe Biden, while vice president, received a bribe from a Ukrainian businessman to change U.S. policy.

Prompting the impeachment inquiry is an unclassified FD-1023 form that contains confidential human source information outlining an alleged bribery effort. The tip describes an arrangement in which Burisma CEO Mykola Zlochevsky allegedly hired Hunter Biden to secure access to his father, upon whom he leaned to secure the firing of then-Ukrainian Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin, who was investigating the firm.

The hearing will feature three witnesses, including George Washington University Law Professor Jonathan Turley, former Assistant Attorney General, United States Department of Justice Tax Division Eileen O'Connor, and forensic accountant Bruce Dubinsky, the committee announced Monday.

I assume the forensic accountant will just be there to say that, in his expert opinion, there is no conceivable reason to create such a gigantically convoluted series of Russian Nesting Doll shell companies except to disguise the source of income and thus commit the crime of money laundering.

House Republicans
@HouseGOP

In 2020, Joe Biden LIED when claimed Hunter Biden "has not made money" from China.

Today, @GOPoversight
revealed two bank wires from 2019 revealing Hunter received payments originating from Chinese nationals, and Joe Biden's home was listed as the beneficiary address for both.


Vulnerable Democrats who took money from Bob Menendez's pile of Egyptian cash and gold are donating it to charity, to distance themselves from the crime figure.

Sens. Jon Tester, D-Mont., and Bob Casey, D-Pa., on Tuesday pledged to donate the $10,000 they accepted from the political action committee of indicted Sen. Bob Menendez, D-N.J., who is facing growing calls to resign.

The Fiercely Heterosexual Cory Booker, who, if anything, has become even more Fiercely Heterosexual since his much-publicized Fake Romance with LGBT actress Rosario Dawson, is among those calling for Menendez to resign.


Menendez, who was indicted alongside his wife on bribery charges, "deserves our presumption of innocence until proven guilty," Booker said, CNN reported.

"Stepping down is not an admission of guilt but an acknowledgment that holding public office often demands tremendous sacrifices at great personal cost. Senator Menendez has made these sacrifices in the past to serve. And in this case, he must do so again," Booker also said.

A Democrat-aligned group is spending $60 million in dark money -- remember when the media used to run scare stories about "Dark Money"? That was before the Democrats began spending literal billions of it -- to "fortify" the 2024 election.


The States Project, a Democrat-aligned group, spent $60 million across five swing states last year as part of an effort to proliferate liberal policies, the New York Times reported.

The group focuses on getting Democrats elected to state legislatures and aids them once elected in order to get more liberal policies passed, according to its website. The States Project's is a joint initiative between PAC For America's Future, which receives funding from George Soros' Democracy PAC, and Future Now Action, a 501c4 dark money group that does not disclose its donors, according to the organization's website.

Of the $60 million the group spent in 2022, most of it went directly to Democratic candidates and legislative caucuses in Arizona, Michigan, Maine, Nevada and Pennsylvania, though some was also spent on political advertisements, according to the NYT.

The States Project, which refused to disclose its donors to the NYT, lists "empowering people over special interests" as one of its policy goals.

Uh-huh.

Adulterous turncoat Joe Scarborough is all-in for Joe Biden, claiming only "fools" would underestimate him. He rails against those who wrote Basemen Joe off in 2020... overlooking the fact that he was one of the ones who wrote Biden off in 2020.

"Joe Scarborough hides the bodies of murdered aides he was having an affair with like I dress." -- John Fetterman

Hey, I didn't say it, Fetterman's Monster did.

A Democrat Representative says he's "thinking" about running against Biden.


Minnesota representative Dean Phillips (D.) said Monday he is "thinking about" taking on President Joe Biden in a presidential primary, as the 80-year-old president's popularity is waning.


"I am thinking about it. I haven't ruled it out," the three-term congressman said in an interview with Steve Schmidt's podcast The Warning. "I'm concerned that there is no alternative. I'm concerned that something could happen between now and next November that would make the Democratic Convention in Chicago an unmitigated disaster."

Target closes nine stores in the US due to violence and theft -- all coincidentally located in blue states.

The Kobeissi Letter
@KobeissiLetter


BREAKING: Target, $TGT, to close 9 stores in major cities across the US due to "violence and theft."

This includes one of Target's New York City locations and 3 stores in San Francisco.

Target said in a statement that the safety of their team and guests are at risk, forcing closures.

This comes after target said that theft is costing them more than $500 million this year.

Walmart has also been contemplating shutting stores and raising prices due to theft.

As inflation persists, theft is getting worse.


This is just getting publicity now: Back in May, a Navy MK 15 Phalanx Close-In Weapon System automatically locked in and tracked a commercial plane, a Boeing 737, as the crew said "no, no, no" as if it were a dog eating a slipper.


dontjudge.jpg

That's from this new show.

If you don't want to be judged, don't constantly put yourself up as if you're contestants in a pageant.

They do want to be judged -- but they want to be judged positively, only. It's like girls putting up their photos with a "Hot or Not?" question but then becoming furious and #triggered if people rate them a 4 and say "would not smash."

If you invite commentary on your lifestyle, you get commentary on your lifestyle. I offered some information about my.... alternative Shelving choices yesterday, and people commented on that. I did not say "How dare you question my plainly-disastrous attempts at shelving!"

As Jeff Winger observed: "When you go fishing for a compliment, sometimes you get a boot."

Deal with it.

64 Willowed from last thread:

Hey, All,

I planted a massive turd today on the Art Thread. I would like to explain.

The commenter known as Robert said something about going home and drinking bourbon in his underwear. I assumed it was meant facetiously, so I responded facetiously, referencing the meme of "Pics or it didn't happen," thinking that that particular meme referred to any debauched behavior, and not just frolics with female lovlies.

Boy, did y'all give me pushback on that. I was surprised by the response, and so in my embarrassment, responded with lame responses like "I did it for the 'ettes," which, of course, did not fly. Immediately, I became the blog's new ghey whipping horse.

Even knowing the nature of the Horde, I was surprised by the amount of snark that I received in response to that comment. That being said, although I was ashamed by my comment, I understand how things are here, and do not hold any of the responses to my original bad joke against any of the commenters here. (Hey, Sponge!)

By the way, when I told today's story to my wife, who has much longer experience with the Horde than I do (though she seldom comments), she thought that it was hilarious.

77 Even knowing the nature of the Horde, I was surprised by the amount of snark that I received in response to that comment. That being said, although I was ashamed by my comment, I understand how things are here, and do not hold any of the responses to my original bad joke against any of the commenters here. (Hey, Sponge!)

By the way, when I told today's story to my wife, who has much longer experience with the Horde than I do (though she seldom comments), she thought that it was hilarious.

A murder suspect labeled by police as willing to "do anything he can to cause harm" is the target of an all-out search after a 26-year-old software development company founder was found slain at her Baltimore apartment.

Baltimore Police said Pava Marie LaPere was found around 11:30 a.m. after someone called for help. She died from blunt-force trauma.

Authorities announced an arrest warrant at a news conference Tuesday afternoon for Jason Dean Billingsley, 32. He is charged with first-degree murder in LaPere's killing.

Bulgar-I knew you were being facetious about "Pics or it didn't happen"- and I laughed- about Robert and made no jump that you are homosexual or that he is. You are married to a woman and he clearly seems like he is heterosexual too.

I don't really have an overwhelming desire to see anyone in their underwear. Of course I have to see myself in underwear. My husband wears underwear, but it's not as if I say, "Could you wear your underwear and sit in a sexy fashion on our kitchen countertops, big boy ?

Someone today told me that if this gets upheld, he's thinking of joining a failing community lawsuit against RXR, the largest commercial real estate holder on Long Island - normally, under rules we go by as Americans and humans, they'd have no chance - but now under these Dem Pirates, its about to be take and plunder, baby, take and plunder!

162 Insider Paper @TheInsiderPaper 8h
NEW: RNA recovered from extinct animal in world first

RNA recovered from extinct animal in world first - Insider Paper
Scientists have for the first time recovered RNA from an extinct species, the Tasmanian tiger, raising hope for the resurrection

|| of animals once thought lost forever, Stockholm University researchers told AFP.

“RNA has never been extracted and sequenced from an extinct species before,” said Love Dalen, a Stockholm University professor of evolutionary genomics who co-led the project.

“The ability to recover RNA from extinct species constitutes a small step (toward) maybe being able to resurrect extinct species in the future,” he said.

Dalen and his team were able to sequence RNA molecules from a 130-year-old Tasmanian tiger specimen preserved at room temperature in Sweden’s Museum of Natural History.

The last known living Tasmanian tiger or thylacine, a carnivorous marsupial, died in captivity in 1936 at the Beaumaris Zoo in Tasmania.||

“This is a fantastic animal and I would love to see it live again,” she said, demonstrating the black-and-brown striped skin the researchers used in their study.

Their findings also have implications for studying pandemic RNA viruses.

“Many of the pandemics that have happened in the past have been caused by RNA viruses, most recently the coronavirus but also … the Spanish flu,” Dalen explained.

“We could actually go and look for these viruses in wild animal remains stored in dry museum collections. That might actually help us understand the nature of pandemics and where pandemics come from,” he said.

The study opens the door to using museum collections in this new way.

“There are millions and millions of dried skins and dried tissue from insects, mammals and birds and so on in museum collections around the world, and one could actually now go and recover RNA from all these specimens,” Dalen said.

241 upheld in NY appeals court, will have decided you can be criminally prosecuted and jailed for fraud for an indefinite period if the judiciary decides you got "too much" for money for your property,

-
Years ago, an attorney I knew had a client how couldn't pay him so he accepted a worthless mining claim in settlement of the debt. Years go by and the claim appreciated in value. The former client grieved him alleging the attorney overcharged him. The attorney rsceived a public censure and had his name smeared all over in front God and everybody.

In addition to no parole, Work Cmps.

Clean up superfund sites, test new vaccines, build useful infrastructure like levees, wells, culverts, maintain gravel roads, drinking lines. CCC stuff.

247 The judge in the Trump business case said Trump had overvalued Mar A Lago and the real value is around $17 million.

>>@TayFromCa

>>For reference, here’s a patch of trees down the road from the historic Mar-a-Lago property—on a lot that’s a fraction of its size—going for $150,00,000.

Take a look at the lot.

248 On the CIWS, it doesn't just track the target on it's radar.

It's also tracking it's own 20mm cannon shells. Each and every one of them, in real time.

The Fire Control Computer does the math, between the speed, altitude and relative bearing of the target, and the decaying velocity and trajectory of the rounds.

Calculating also, all the Weasel Data.. temperature, barometric pressure, relative humidity. And sure, the ship is at "sea level". But the Density Altitude might not quite agree with that baseline.

It adjusts the pitch of the gun's barrels and the rotation of the mount, so as to bring the track of the target and the trajectory of the shells, to the same point and time in space, causing the shells to impact the target.

And blow'd it up good. They wan'd t' blow'd it up REALL GOOD.

249 I did ask FenSpouse if he wanted to sit on the counter in his underwear and look sexy, and after rolling his eyes and laughing his response was "There a little too much stuff on the counter right now." and "I'm too tired." I will ask him tomorrow if in 55' degree weather he wants to fix the car while he is wearing his underwear.

251 "None of this parole, or time off for good behavior crap."

I mean, there are reason to parole a year or two before the end of the sentence, and that's so the state can monitor their captive as they are being released into the wild, just to make sure they don't go straight back in their life of crime.

That said, the only guys who serve their full sentences (with or without a year or two of parole), are the ones that the BOP is sure they'll never see again.

Because that's the only way to extract maximum money from their incarceration.

The guys who are or will be frequent flyers can get out on parole easy, because they will be back in short order. There's no fear of missing out on the money they'll bring in.

252 What happened Super Slut (aka AllahFatAss; aka Deuce; aka Ace)?

I remember when all you could post about was what a great Governor Meanroll Ron was, and how he was singlehandly defeating Disney and saving all the girls and boys from having their breasts and cocks chopped off; and when Florida was the only freaking State that mattered?

What happened genius? You tired of slutting yourself out to Kurt Sphincter and Buck Sexton, or not yet? Not yet. Hah. Not surprised.

254 Hey Ace, I call Bull Shit on you openness to accepting feedback on views and information you post on this website.

You went all in — be honest for once genius — for Ron DeSantis. And you did not want negative feedback for that very stupid (yes, moronic) point of view.

Suck it up Buttercup, because as things stand, you might be NeverTrump as much as your secret squeeze, Tom Nichols (hopefully, your buddy, the even more idiotic CBD isn’t too jealous).

You can dish it out but you can’t take it, AllahFatAss.
