It doesn’t matter what the White Home says, everybody believes Joe Biden will pardon his son Hunter and spare him vital jail time, after his responsible plea to felony tax crimes final week, on high of his felony gun conviction in June.
Hunter’s weird authorized technique solely is sensible in mild of the get-out-of jail free card his highly effective father has prepared for him. He’ll cry sufferer and escape accountability for his misdeeds but once more, like he has completed all his life.
However the twin convictions are vital as a result of they stand eternally as an antidote to the lies and gaslighting which are a Biden household specialty.
The president is implicated in each a part of the prosecution case that was set to unfold this week — Joe Biden was each the product Hunter bought for hundreds of thousands of {dollars} to shady international pursuits all through his vice presidency and past, and an lively accomplice who met with Hunter’s Chinese language, Ukrainian, Russian and Kazakhstani paymasters for breakfast lunch and dinner, for coffees and handshakes and for chats concerning the “climate” on speakerphone. If Joe have been nonetheless operating for re-election, the five-week trial so near the election would have been a political legal responsibility that even essentially the most partisan media retailers would have been compelled to cowl.
The trial additionally would have harm Kamala Harris’ marketing campaign if it had gone forward, as a reminder that she denied data of Joe’s corruption simply as she denied his cognitive decline. Because it occurs, the fallout of the aborted trial nonetheless provides to a taint across the White Home, as a lot because the Democrats’ media handmaidens would possibly faux it has nothing to do with Joe.
Sincere Joe to Huge Man
The fees towards Hunter (pictured leaving court docket together with his spouse, Melissa) in California and Delaware have been simply the tip of the iceberg of corruption that was partially revealed in Hunter’s “laptop computer from hell” after which expanded on within the Home impeachment committees’ painstaking investigations.
Within the course of, “Sincere Joe,” the self-proclaimed “poorest man in Congress,” has been uncovered for posterity because the “Huge Man,” the central determine in an influence-peddling operation that stretches again to his earliest days because the senator for Delaware and has afforded his prolonged household a way of life of entitlement and luxurious befitting billionaires, together with Du Pont mansions, a ritzy lakefront property, a $3 million seashore home, elite personal colleges, Ivy League tuition and such baubles as the large diamond ring sported by First Woman Jill Biden at a Ralph Lauren soirée on the Hamptons over the weekend.
For 90 minutes in Los Angeles federal court docket Thursday, Decide Mark Scarsi compelled Hunter to pay attention as prosecutors learn aloud to the court docket the whole indictment towards him earlier than he was allowed him to enter a responsible plea to all 9 expenses for tax evasion and different crimes.
“Do you agree you dedicated each aspect of each crime within the indictment?” Scarsi requested.
“Sure,” Hunter responded.
It was the second all of the Biden lies of the previous 5 years turned to mud.
Even Hunter’s personal pricy lead lawyer Abbe Lowell needed to admit the prosecution case was overwhelming.
It served as some measure of vindication for the whistleblowers who stood up for the rule of regulation towards essentially the most highly effective man on this planet — and the shadowy cabal of CIA, FBI, DOJ and IRS operatives who perverted the course of justice and interfered with an election to guard the Bidens.
Blowing the whistle
With out IRS investigators Gary Shapley and Joe Ziegler blowing the whistle at huge private expense, Hunter would have escaped scot free. That clearly was the intention of the DOJ and David Weiss, Delaware’s US attorney-turned-special counsel, who allowed the statute of limitations to run out on essentially the most severe potential expenses, together with bribery and unlawful international lobbying.
Each phrase of the indictment learn into the general public report final week was the product of Shapley and Ziegler’s integrity and onerous work. It was proof that the costs they have been able to carry earlier than the 2022 midterms have been strong and by no means ought to have been rejected by the DOJ and Weiss, who supplied Hunter a sweetheart plea deal that might have seen him charged with nothing in any respect.
Solely when Weiss acquired wind of Shapley’s upcoming testimony to Congress did he panic and inform his minions that they needed to cost Hunter a minimum of with a misdemeanor or two.
Even this extraordinary reward from prosecutors was not ok for the pampered son of Joe Biden, so the plea deal collapsed in court docket, due to an sincere choose, Maryellen Noreika, who had little doubt learn the amicus transient containing Shapley and Ziegler’s damning testimony of prosecutorial misconduct all through the five-year investigation of the primary son.
The nation owes the 2 whistleblowers an infinite debt of gratitude.
The IRS perversely was congratulating itself final week for a job properly completed when the responsible verdicts got here in.
And but IRS management has been tormenting Shapley and Ziegler, subjecting them to dying by a thousand cuts. All the pieces that may legally be completed to drive them out of their jobs has been tried.
They’ve been denied promotions, frozen out, snubbed in public, and two huge tax circumstances that Shapley’s workforce was engaged on have been ordered closed, letting tax cheats off the hook.
Regardless of having lodged whistleblower complaints with three totally different watchdog organizations, the retaliation continues.
‘Adopted my coronary heart’
The stress on each males has affected each side of their lives.
“I’m annoyed that the guarantees of safety for blowing the whistle aren’t being honored,” says Shapley, the supervisory agent accountable for Hunter’s case, who leads the crack IRS workforce dubbed the “Seal Group 6” of tax fraud investigations: the Worldwide Monetary Tax Crimes group. “My profession is ruined as a result of it’s clear that lack of management at IRS enabled politics at DOJ to improperly infect the case. . . . The IRS is extra all for saving face than looking for fact and justice.”
Ziegler, the proficient lead particular agent on the Hunter investigation from its inception in 2018, and a registered Democrat, has seen his marriage disintegrate beneath the stress and buddies abandon him.
“I’ve gone by way of a deep melancholy full of isolation and a questioning of whether or not what I used to be doing was proper,” he says. “As a homosexual man, members of my neighborhood shunned me and forged me as an individual towards them and their beliefs. . . . However on the finish of the day, I adopted my coronary heart and adopted the rules I used to be raised on in doing what was proper regardless of the associated fee.”
It’s disgusting that these two good males are being punished for doing the suitable factor.
However so long as the general public stands up for them as they stood up for all of us, their cowardly bosses can’t go too far. And if Donald Trump wins the election, you may guess that he’ll clear out the whole IRS management.
Though he’s too modest to agree, there could be no higher legal investigation chief than Shapley. What an encouraging message that might ship to whistleblowers sooner or later.
