Joe Biden and John Kerry have been pillars of the Washington establishment for more than 30 years. Biden is one of the most popular politicians in our nation’s capital.
His demeanor, sense of humor, and even his friendly gaffes have allowed him to form close relationships with both Democrats and Republicans. His public image is built around his “Lunch Bucket Joe” persona. As he reminds the American people on regular occasions, he has little wealth to show for his career, despite having reached the vice presidency.
One of his closest political allies in Washington is former senator and former Secretary of State John Kerry. “Lunch Bucket Joe” he ain’t; Kerry is more patrician than earthy. But the two men became close while serving for several decades together in the US Senate. The two “often talked on matters of foreign policy,” says Jules Witcover in his Biden biography.
So their sons going into business together in June 2009 was not exactly a bolt out of the blue.
But with whom their sons cut lucrative deals while the elder two were steering the ship of state is more of a surprise.

All of them with their hands in the cookie jars, getting rich and the HELL WITH AMERICA!!
Yet in addition to his son's well know questionable multi-million dollar business deals, his brother James company was awarded a $1.5 billion contract to build housing in Iraq during the occupation. I'm sure none of Hunter or James newfound windfalls had anything to do with them being relatives of Joe, it was all above board.
Any mafia don knows you have underlings handle the dirty money. For someone who has "little wealth" after a career in government, Joe still managed to buy a $2.75 million beach house a few years back.
Where are they getting the idea that these two clowns are “popular”? They might be popular with the folks that have been wrong on almost every important issue in our country, but that’s it. What is popular about abject failures?

Yes it is. They $3 million payment from a Putin connected oligarch that has never been explained.
The top Putin insiders have been robbing their Treasury same. This why the Russian offense failed. Long live truth telling Ukraine. Truth! I thought Ukraine was pre-destined losers. How wrong I was!
The paper Russian tiger is failing, and I love it.
