Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) sidestepped a swipe at Hunter Biden’s wonky business dealings, bemoaning instead a revolving door of “influence peddlers” in Washington, DC.

“I have spent a lot of my time in Congress working on is how we bring just more ethics and more oversight in general to everything that we do in government.”

FAIL!!!

I can't believe she said that in the face of massive failure to control and contain corruption. That's like Kamala saying she succeeded in securing the southern border.

Hunter didn't have a business - he was soliciting bribes from corrupt desperate countries wanting American taxpayer dollars.

The sick irony is that big, activist, woke government will always produce 10,000 insider parasites

It used to be that getting paid for “protection” made you an organized criminal

She “worries”, but not enough to name names.

She’d rather worry about those that falsely claim minority status to get spots that were reserved for actual minorities.

Wait...

Oh, now I get it. Warren says “the DC culture” is to blame.
That means Hunter couldn’t help it and has no responsibility for his actions.😇🤸‍♂️⛸️🧁🍭
