White House mum on National Archives releasing hundreds of pages of emails about Hunter Biden, Burisma
Fox ^ | 16 Dec 2022

The Biden White House has so far remained silent as it weighs whether to block the release of a trove of documents from the Obama administration that may contain information about Hunter Biden's relationship with the Ukrainian energy company Burisma.

The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) informed the White House on Nov. 30 that it will soon release nearly 300 email messages in response to Freedom of Information of Act (FOIA) requests for emails that contain the word "Burisma," Insider reported. The Biden administration may stop the release of these records by invoking executive privilege, but the White House has yet to say whether it will do so.

The records – requested by America First Legal and other groups – consist of 69 images and 282....

Executive privilege can be used to hide criminal activity? Really bad optics.

What is this thing called “executive privilege”.

The Democrats (and the courts) ignored both executive privilege as well as the confidentiality between lawyer and client while going after President Trump over crimes they just made up!

With Hunter Biden and the Big Guys there is clear evidence of crimes that have been committed and that President Biden not only knows about them he profited by them.

Gee I wonder what will happen?

Need a bigger distraction?

I wonder what that distraction will be. Another shooting? Maybe a convenient “domestic terrorist” act committed by people unknown, or a prime suspect with a past that is nebulous at best?

This isn’t about Hunter. It is about the corruption and betrayal of our National security by Joe Biden with the help of his family mafia.

Biden and the WH do not need to do anything - the media will do all of the heavy lifting.

If you follow “The Twitter Files’ you’ll realize media/tech/DOJ are all one entity.

Both the 2020 election the 2022 election have demonstrated that neither the facts on the ground nor the issues debated in the press (or ignored by the press) are cogent enough to overcome the infrastructure advantage owned by the Democrats.

If the Hunter Biden laptop story could not gain traction either in 2020 or in 2024, we must acknowledge that there is something going on beyond our capacity to win elections when every historical precedent tells us we should sail to victory.

The problem is not only Rona McDaniel, although of course she has to go, the problem is not only misfeasance by Mitch McConnell, the problem is not poor candidates (Doctor Oz, for example, was a reasonably able candidate who should have won in the conditions that obtained in Pennsylvania). No, the problem is best seen as a problem of infrastructure.

We all know the Democrats are advantaged in the media to a value of hundreds of millions of dollars but they are also advantaged in the gathering and spending of campaign funds. More, the Democrats have disproportionately more organizations supplying the party with foot soldiers who can deliver live voters or who could harvest and transport dubious ballots.

Gramsci, communist of The Frankfurt School, and his followers have accomplished their long walk through the institutions so they have co-opted virtually every political, governmental, nongovernmental, cultural and educational agency in the land. All the millions of people associated with these institutions, dependent on these institutions for their rice bowls to be filled, are likely Democrat voters or they cannot prosper within the institution.

Perhaps the most important institution subverted by Democrats is the educational establishment which is actively churning out Democrats from kindergarten through postgraduate studies. By the time these indoctrinated individuals approach the voting booth the indoctrination is so complete that distractions like Hunter Biden's laptop pointing to gross corruption of a presidential candidate is simply discounted. In other words, the quality of the candidate on the Democrat side does not matter, hence, the president can be elected who cannot safely venture from his basement and a Senator can be elected who humiliates himself in debate. These voters are simply conditioned as though they were in a Skinner box and the stimulus that comes from the Republican Party simply does not register.

For those individuals who do not reflexively vote Democrat as a result of indoctrination, the Democrats have brilliantly exploited data mining. Data mining tells marketers your shoe size and it tells Democrats your electoral proclivities and vulnerabilities which they exploit because they have foot soldiers who will expend the shoe leather to personally approach data mined voters whose vulnerabilities have been psychologically evaluated. These foot soldiers have been prompted to exploit those vulnerabilities on an individual and personal level.

All of these features come together to create a formidable infrastructure that increasingly and inevitably produces Democrat victories.

Occasionally a charismatic figure like Donald Trump can break through, especially if the Democrats were asleep at the switch out of hubris and disregard for Trump. But overall, and increasingly, the fate of the Republican Party is slipping out of their control. Unless and until the degree and nature of the problem is understood, we will continue to be frustrated and in our frustration we will point fingers at individuals, at candidates, and we will continue to believe that we can win next time if only we can get an honest count.

The infrastructure problem is taken us well beyond these fixes fixes.

National Archives is part of the swamp. They can modify and release anything they want regardless of what any FOIA or court says.

They’ll cite national security or preserving evidence for an investigation as an excuse to block crackhead Biden from revealing the full extent of the crime family.

The House Kangaroo Court wants to indict President Trump while Corruption Inc. Biden has hard evidence against him.

It is the old bury ‘em with BS ploy. Such a wad of data will be edited — just like all the lies from the Jan6 “trial”.
