Let's begin with this premise: Former Hunter Biden business partner Tony Bobulinski remains on a quest to reveal the truth about the Biden Family Business and associated influence peddling. On the other hand, Joe and Hunter Biden continue to run from the truth as fast and as often as they can.That is if you believe the sworn testimony of Bobulinski, which I do. First, let's catch up a bit. As we reported on February 28, Hunter Biden, after months of performing an evasive kabuki dance, finally testified before the House Oversight and House Judiciary Committees — behind closed doors —...

Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden, will go on trial for gun-related charges on June 3, a federal judge ruled Wednesday. If it holds, the early-June trial date could pit the president’s son in back-to-back trials in the two cases brought by Weiss. In addition to the gun case, Hunter Biden faces nine tax-related charges in California over an alleged conspiracy across several years to avoid paying over $1 million in taxes and is set to go to trial in the case on June 20.

In opposing Hunter’s motions to dismiss, Weiss argued that “the Defendant chose to commit serious tax crimes” and that “The Defendant also chose to commit serious gun crimes.” David Weiss, the special counsel handling the tax and gun charges against first son Hunter Biden, filed a motion in California on Friday opposing the defendant’s “motion to dismiss for selective and vindictive prosecution and breach of separation of powers.” In late February, attorneys for Hunter Biden filed a motion to dismiss the tax-related charges that special counsel Weiss had brought in California. Biden’s attorney, Abbe Lowell said in a statement at...

On Friday’s broadcast of Bloomberg’s “Balance of Power,” White House Council of Economic Advisers member Heather Boushey responded to a question on whether the higher corporate taxes pushed by President Joe Biden will harm hiring by saying that “We need to make sure that the federal government has the resources that it needs to be able to do the things that it needs to do.” And that”businesses have a lot of resources, we’ve also given them a lot of subsidies and supports to go out there and invest.” Co-host Joe Mathieu asked, [relevant exchange begins around 7:15] “[H]e talked about...

She sow had a nose for art. Pigcasso, the wildly talented pig who sold over $1 million of her paintings and was hailed “the most successful non-human artist in world history,” has died at age 8. Joanne Lefson, the creative critter’s owner, recently announced the 450-pound visionary’s death due chronic Rheumatoid arthritis. Prior to her passing, the pig’s illness rendered both of her back legs lame, owing to calcification of her lower spine.

Hunter Biden was paid $1 million by Chinese firm CEFC to act as attorney for their employee, Dr Patrick Ho, but now Ho is threatening to sue the first son within seven days unless he gets the money back — because he claims Hunter did no legal work for him. Ho sent a legal letter to Hunter last week requesting that their attorney-client agreement be terminated immediately and threatening legal action unless he receives a detailed list of services provided by Hunter and reimbursement for the unused funds, as laid out in the 2017 contract. Ho’s letter, sent by Hong...

The effort to revive Russian collusion claims in Joe Biden's impeachment probe is running into an inconvenient truth for Democrats: Hunter Biden and his business partners waged a concerted campaign to squeeze oligarchs in Vladimir Putin's country for investments, an effort that ultimately paved the way for the first son to score a big payday from Burisma Holdings in neighboring Ukraine. Hunter Biden and his partners' pursuit of Russian riches began as early as 2010 with payments from a Moscow-based machinery firm and its "patriarch," and they intensified a few years later at a time when Joe Biden's son was...

The GOP Oversight Committee was good enough to release key excerpts from Hunter Biden's deposition as part of their impeachment inquiry of his dad, Joe. This is super helpful especially since he testified behind closed doors. Take a look: 🚨TRANSCRIPT RELEASE🚨 Today, we released the transcript of our deposition with Hunter Biden as part of our impeachment inquiry of President Joe Biden. 🧵See the key excerpts👇 — Oversight Committee (@GOPoversight) March 1, 2024 Quick, grab some popcorn: Contrary to Joe Biden’s past statements, Hunter Biden admitted he received money from Chinese companies but characterized it as “incredibly ethical.” pic.twitter.com/J0dthU8Knu —...

At long last, first son Hunter Biden affirmed during his Wednesday impeachment inquiry deposition that his father, Joe, was “the big guy” referenced in an email about a business deal with a Chinese state-linked energy firm that yielded millions for Biden family members and other associates, more than three years after The Post broke the story — but rejected the notion that the president was ever penciled in for a 10% stake. “At one point, we asked Hunter about the 10% for the ‘big guy,’” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), a member of the House Oversight Committee, told Breitbart following...

Hunter Biden derided the House impeachment inquiry as “MAGA-motivated conspiracies about my father” in an opening statement Wednesday during his deposition before congressional investigators. By contrast, House Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., said his and two other committees were deposing the president’s son because he is a “key witness in our investigation of President Joe Biden.” Comer also called the conduct unearthed so far “Public Corruption 101.” After the seven-hour deposition wrapped, Hunter Biden’s lawyer Abbe Lowell briefly talked to reporters. “The Republican majority ends the day where they started,” Lowell said, as Hunter Biden stood behind him....

WASHINGTON — First son Hunter Biden claimed in congressional testimony Wednesday that he was “high or drunk” when he wrote to a Chinese associate in 2017 that he was “sitting here with my father” — shortly before the transfer of $5.1 million into Biden family-linked accounts. A readout of the 54-year-old first son’s closed-door impeachment inquiry deposition was provided to numerous news outlets Wednesday evening citing Hunter’s claim that President Biden had nothing to do with the shakedown of Chinese state-linked CEFC China Energy. The readout said “Hunter admitted that he was high or drunk when he sent the ‘sitting...

Hunter Biden was deposed yesterday before the Oversight and House Judiciary committees behind closed doors.. He made several nuanced statements: In an opening statement distributed to the media, Hunter accused House Republicans of spreading “baseless and MAGA-motivated conspiracies” about his father’s role in an array of foreign business relationships and insisted he “never” involved President Biden “in my business” — despite what Republican investigators say is substantial evidence to the contrary. Hunter's denials have continuously evolved over time as the GOP exposes evidence contrary to them. Within an hour House democrats were outside lying about the testimony. The top Democrat...

A vital witness regarding the Biden clan's ties to CEFC, the CCP-connected energy company, is missing. Last February, Dr. Gal Luft, a retired Israel Defense Forces lieutenant colonel with deep intelligence ties in Washington and Beijing, was arrested as an alleged gun runner. At the time, he claimed the arrest was to stop him from revealing what he knows about the Biden crime family and FBI corruption. Now, Dr. Luft has disappeared entirely. In the early 2000s, Luft formed a think tank called the Institute for Analysis of Global Security (IAGS) that focused on energy innovations and policy. Accordingly, from...

The CBS News boss who signed off on the controversial ouster of Catherine Herridge — a respected Washington correspondent who has been embroiled in a high-profile First Amendment case — is nevertheless being honored with a free speech award next month. CBS News president Ingrid Ciprian-Matthews was selected by Radio Television Digital News Association to be among 13 honorees at the 33rd annual First Amendment Awards at The Watergate Hotel in Washington DC on March 9. The irony was not lost ... “The RTDNA must be tone deaf to give Ingrid Ciprian-Matthews and CBS News an award for the First...

SAG-AFTRA, the CBS workers' union, called the seizure of her notes 'completely inappropriate' and 'very unusual'. ... CBS News has returned the notes it seized from a high-profile reporter the network fired for 'investigating Hunter Biden.'

In his opening statement to House impeachment investigators, former Hunter Biden business partner, Jason Galanis, said Joe Biden planned to join the board of his son’s firm which was being backed by a Chinese businessman and state-owned enterprises. Galanis delivered his opening statement on Friday morning to congressional investigators from inside a federal prison in Alabama where he is serving a prison sentence for engaging in an illegal scheme to enrich Burnham Asset Management. Galanis also unequivocally told investigators his firm originally partnered with Hunter Biden because of his family name. “The entire value-add of Hunter Biden to our business...

Below is my column in The Hill on the trouble brewing at CBS over the seizure of the files of acclaimed investigative reporter Catherine Herridge. The column broke the story on the uproar over not just her being laid off but her being locked out from her files. I am now hearing from CBS sources that the network is moving toward a resolution to turn over the files after the outcry. However, the concerns over Herridge’s firing and the network’s handling of her confidential notes continues to draw fire from journalists and commentators. The union issued a statement (below) after...

In what can only be described as incredible timing, Special Counsel David Weiss (who quashed the Hunter Biden laptop story in 2020 and who tried to finagle an agreement to allow Hunter Biden amnesty and freedom from all future prosecutions) announced an indictment of long time FBI confidential informant Alexander Smirnov. Special counsel David Weiss has indicted an FBI confidential source who provided derogatory information about President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden on felony false statement and obstruction charges. Weiss indicted Alexander Smirnov, 43, on one count of making a false statement and one count of creating a...

Here we go again. The Democrats have dusted off their old Russia collusion hoax as we get deeper into election season. Democrat Rep. Dan Goldman absurdly claimed the Russians are interfering in the 2024 election in wake of the DOJ’s latest attack on the FBI informant who blew the whistle on the Biden-Burisma scandal. Biden’s DOJ is now alleging the FBI informant arrested last week “is actively peddling new lies that could impact U.S. elections after meeting with Russian intelligence officials in November.” The FBI’s confidential source, Alexander Smirnov, was indicted last week by Hunter Biden Special Counsel David Weiss...
