Oh, there will be voices who will proclaim this is the beginning of the end for Joe and Hunter, but that’s nonsense. We don’t do pretending on these pages. What happened today was an agreement between USAO David Weiss and US Attorney General Merrick Garland to fortify a silo of protection around the Biden family.
The shift in David Weiss from an investigative US Attorney to an officially appointed Special Counsel [SEE pdf HERE], is nothing more than loading the new color spray paint into the cannister. Pesky House Oversight Committee inquiry now hits the block of an “ongoing investigation,” a purposeful deployment of a DC replay we have seen repeatedly in the last several years. The cancer of corruption is institutionally metastatic.
We know the specific motives of USAO David Weiss as a result of the conflict between his public statements, letters to congress and the private statements he gave in meetings with IRS investigators. Toward the public, Weiss said he had full autonomy and power to investigate Hunter Biden; however, in private he told four investigators the decision-making was not his. The public statements were refuted and affirmed by two investigators who were witness to his private statements and gave testimony under oath.
As a result, the intent and institutional alignment of David Weiss is clear. This is the cold hard truth of the matter, and it will not change regardless of how much disingenuous concrete they pour around the walls of the silo Main Justice has built. Ignore any voice who would demand us to pretend the reality is not self-evident.
Here’s the SILO as presented by Garland:
Dept of Justice – “Attorney General Merrick B. Garland announced today the appointment of U.S. Attorney David Weiss to serve as Special Counsel for the ongoing investigation and prosecutions referenced and described in United States v. Robert Hunter Biden, as well as for any other matters that arose or may arise from that investigation. Mr. Weiss was nominated by the former president in 2017 and confirmed by the U.S. Senate in 2018. In 2021, he was asked to remain as U.S. Attorney for the District of Delaware, where he led this ongoing investigation. On Tuesday, Aug. 8, Mr. Weiss requested to be appointed as Special Counsel, and today the Attorney General made that appointment.
“On Tuesday of this week, Mr. Weiss advised me that in his judgment, his investigation has reached a stage at which he should continue his work as a Special Counsel, and he asked to be so appointed,” said Attorney General Garland. “Upon considering his request, as well as the extraordinary circumstances relating to this matter, I have concluded it is in the public interest to appoint him as Special Counsel. This appointment confirms my commitment to provide Mr. Weiss all the resources he requests. It also reaffirms that Mr. Weiss has the authority he needs to conduct a thorough investigation and to continue to take the steps he deems appropriate independently, based only on the facts and the law.”
The Attorney General also said, “As Special Counsel, he will continue to have the authority and responsibility that he has exercised previously to oversee the investigation and decide where, when, and whether to file charges. The Special Counsel will not be subject to the day-to-day supervision of any official of the Department, but he must comply with the regulations, procedures, and policies of the Department … Today’s announcement affords the prosecutors, agents, and analysts working on this matter the ability to proceed with their work expeditiously, and to make decisions indisputably guided only by the facts and the law … I am confident that Mr. Weiss will carry out his responsibility in an even-handed and urgent matter, and in accordance with the highest traditions of this Department.” (more)
I think the House should proceed with the impeachment filed today. After all, Joe keeps claiming he was not involved in any deal with Hunter. If he or the DOJ claim that the impeachment investigation can’t access material because of Hunter’s “ongoing investigation,” the response could be, “Oh, so now Joe Biden is admitting that he and Hunter were involved in business together?”
Exactly.
Keep your comments coming, please. They are always spot on.
I think they should add today’s action to the impeachment list for Garland.
Just because Garland is pretending does not mean that anyone else has to pretend with him. He is so late, and this action is so transparently the opposite of what it claims to be that no one is fooled — so, no one should pretend they are.
Never let the left frame any discussion — especially not this one.
“The House” ain’t going to do Jack shi,…ANYTHING about it, because they are, ALL of them “in on it” up to their eyeballs.
Not only McCarthy, but all of the MINO’s (MAGA In Name Only) that installed Kevin while attempting to burnish their bogus bona fides, as representing us.
In order for the J6 Fedsurrection to have been “pulled off” and subsequently NO MENTION of Regitigers theory, that I would now call a confirmed explanation by ANY in House or Senate that pose as MAGA, from Hawley to Jordan, MTG to Gaetz, is just one of many data points that confirm we are being “played” with another layer of “controlled opposition”.
We have NO representation in either House of Congress; NONE.
I agree, as a matter of fact, I think the house is happy garland did this- that way they don’t get accused of “being weak” or “slow walking” investigations. Makes me sick.
this is classic potomac two step, version 2023.
we “want” to draft articles of impeachment, but there is an open investigation and a special counsel looking into the matter. As a consequence the house investigating these crimes will back off and allow the department of justice handle the case.
notice in this predictable sequence, the house actually still has the power and the constitutional authority to draft articles of impeachment AND to FORM ITS OWN INDEPENDENT COUNSEL and proceed REGARDLESS that DOJ has established a special counsel…
if there was EVERY A REASON FOR THE HOUSE TO ESTABLISH AN INDEPENDENT COUNSEL< THE DOJ WITH THIS ACTION HAS JUST GIVEN IT THE QUALIFIED JUSTIFICATION.
everyone KNOWS this is a refusal and a coverup by DOJ.. EVERYONE KNOWS THIS.
the ONLY PATH FORWARD IS A POLITICAL SOLUTION.
will congress do it?
I doubt it.
I seriously doubt it. With that political solution also comes great political risk…seats will be challenged and without question the secret police spy state will begin aggressively outlining allegations of crime and all manner of urinating with russian whores against sitting representatives and senators who dare to push ahead with its own impeachment articles and trial.
one has to remember and keep this single issue at the top of the list above all others…even above who becomes president:
the 702/usa freedom act is up for debate/renewal/abolishment/reform.
that’s the negotiating joker in the deck.
how does congress use this card…how will the FBI and DOJ and military respond to conditions on reforms in exchange for what?
that an impeachment of joe malarkey be allowed to happen and suddenly FBI and DOJ begin cooperating.
see, they really don’t care about joe malarkey..they installed him because they could control him and gain the power of the white house..the power of potus. Congress wants to impeach joe malarkey because its good political optics…everyone KNOWS joe malarkey is crooked…But congress also wants to be protected and not harassed by FBI and DOJ. So they will negotiate terms. renew with some trivial reforms that have exceptions…the secret police spy state retains the powers they depend on for their power. Congress gets to keep their seats.
and this nation will continue to be manipulated by the secret police spy state and the corruption in DC will get more engrained..if that is even possible.
or…this….congress knowing it can never get the votes to impeach joe malarkey decide the risk is to great ..seats could be lost..and reforms to 702 never happen and it gets renewed..and everyone gets paid for NOT TAKING ACTION ON TWO IMPORTANT ISSUES.
not doing things is very profitable in DC.
just ask mike DENSE. Anyone who wants to get curious about his stream of new wealth, should start looking closely.
God Bless America
Spot on about Impeachment. A federal agency doesn’t supersede the Constitution.
“MINO” Love it!
Yes! It’s so perfect (unfortunately) – I would like to see MINO’s prove they aren’t just that – for one thing, raise Holy Hell about the January 6th Committee destroying all that taxpayer property – the J6 Committee IS the Insurrection! Put all of them on the hot seat. Hours and hours of tape, stacks of “evidence” – while Americans are being held in the laogai!
“Firebrand” Matt Gaetz – are you?
I agree on your statement. I think they will do something because Garland went a step too far as Lindsey said later.
The GOP can’t hide from this fiasco. They have to do something about it, it does not have to be effective, but they do have to act.
MINO-classic, just classic!
Garland, Wray and Mayorkas need to be IMPEACHED!
Even if you don’t convict in the Senate you’re exposing their crimes, corruption and incompetence to America.
That done they won’t have cushy seven figure corporate jobs at Apple or Nike waiting for them when they leave government!
They’ll have those jobs when they leave. Companies will pay $$$ for their contacts lists and the access they provide. Also an insurance policy to keep the feds at arms length.
This is a great idea, one problem we don’t have an opposition party. McConnell and McCarthy are too busy filling their pockets, Biden is making them rich and they can blame the dems. I am so sick of a feckless GOP.
McConnell said they didn’t have enough evidence to convict.
LOL
McConnell can’t remember what he had for lunch today.
They are on vacation (“recess”).
Welcome to the Special Council…A.KA. where all good investigations go to die.🤐
unless you are PDJT
Corrupters gotta corrupt.
Who is paying for the Special Counsel?
The American taxpayers 🤑
We pay for everything. Another way they’re screwing us…
Two tweets I’ve just seen but can’t connect to…
The first from Charlie Kirk:
“Remember a SPECIAL COUNSEL is not the same as an INDEPENDENT Counsel. David Weiss, who will be investigating Hunter Biden, will report to Merrick Garland and ultimately Joe Biden.
The man investigating the son is accountable to the father.”
12:17 pm – August 11, 2023
And…
Another from Benjamin Weingartgen who references the appropriate rule for Special Counsel qualifications:
“How can Merrick Garland tab USA David Weiss be a special counsel, while Weiss retains his position as USA?
The law says: ‘The Special Counsel shall be selected from outside the United States Government.'”
12:17 pm – Aug 11, 2023
Included in this tweet was a screenshot from the government document outlining “Qualifications of the Special Counsel” which states:
“An individual named as Special Counsel shall be a lawyer with a reputation for integrity and impartial decision making….”
LOLOLOLOL!!!!!
Continuing…
“…and with appropriate experience to ensure both that the investigation will be conducted ably, expeditiously and thoroughly, and that investigative and prosecutorial decisions will be supported by an informed understanding of the criminal law and Department of Justice policies. The Special Counsel SHALL BE SELECTED FROM OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT.”
Has Weiss resigned as a Federal Prosecutor? If not, how on earth can any of this be legal?
Oh wait…
Betsy ,
Wish I could give You
a Zillion Thumbs Up 🥰
Those sub-humans are Evil and Pathetic . I always think about how Wonderful Our World Would Be if they used their minds for Good . 🙄
Yes , I Know ……. Don’t Make You Laugh 😄 Grrrrrr
🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
I’m still laughing about the kind of lawyer the DOJ is looking for for such a position, RyderLee.
They’ll find Lewis Carroll’s Snark before they locate one that fits that description 😂
Bless you, girl.
(I, too, muse about how different the world would be…alas.)
🇺🇲💪🙏 , Betsy , 💐😊
It’s perfectly legal.
John Durham was an active US Attorney for the district of Connecticut when Bill Barr appointed him Special Counsel, but like Mueller, they were not appointed under the SCO statutes, 28 C.F.R § 600.3
They were appointed by the broad powers given to the Attorney General under 28 U.S.C § 509, § 510 and § 515.
Some of the SCO Statute may apply.
Garland may be corrupt, but he is on solid ground with this appointment.
Correction:
Special Counsel regulations, not statutes.
Thank you for that information, dear sir.
What a fetid sewer DC is.
Believe me, I won’t disagree with you there.
In 2003, then Deputy AG James Comey, appointed US Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald Special Counsel to investigate the unmasking of a CIA agent.
In his appointment letter, Comey never once cited Special Counsel regulations.
The appointment of SC using broad statutory powers (28 U.S.C § 509, § 510 and § 515.) rather than SC regulations seems to be fairly common.
Forget a formal inquiry. Impeach them now.
Rat bastagees….
Wow! Just Wow! May they all look in a mirror and find discusd selves. Rrrrr!
Push forward regardless. Hold all of them in contempt of Congress if they refuse and detain them. Play the game the way they play it…..for the win.
Also the pu$&y GOP house should arrest them if they don’t comply. Set an example
WHO, in Congress do you fantasise doing what you suggest?
You write as if the House Republicans would object to being “stonewalled” by this move by Garland, when they welcome it.
Par for the course.
Thug governments like ours never stop with the tyranny, they only ratchet up the abuse and oppression–regardless of resistance or not.
Some argue this abomination of government will eventually decay and fall in on itself from the rot and corruption. But I don’t think so. This government is like all bullies, and bullies never stop with the bullying until they are stopped–cold and hard.
Why would they stop? They control 1/2 of the world, trillions of dollars, the courts, the media, voting, and the best military.
Not so sure about the military, but I get your point.
Agree…or even 1/2 of World.
🤔 thinking of the map Sundance
frequently posts….
They did beat the Taliban.
Of wait … … …
After allnost 20 years, they left the Taliban stronger than they found them.
Good point. Simply consider the gift of $85B of US military equipment to the Tallywackers as the kenyan helping out his besties in the muslim anti-American world.
Both military, and LE focus a great deal on FOLLOWING ORDERS.
I have Respect for those who serve, but I recognise between 1:100 and 1:1000 would refuse a direct order, to fire on unarmed American Citisens.
And, you BEST accept that reality, and not think you can bet your life on reality being otherwise.
Shoot first.
I think you are way off the mark (by orders of magnitude) on your estimate.
You have quite the contrarian spirit about you–one day you are in agreement, the next, you’re pugilistic in attitude and opinion.
This will be a longish reply to your comment as it requires such. I hope you read it….others as well.
The US military of today is NOT the military of our fathers, mothers, grandfathers and grandmothers. It is weakened, watered down, politicized beyond recognition, and greatly emasculated–feminized if you will.
Currently, there are about 1.5 million active duty members of the military. My numbers may be a bit off, but I don’t think by much. Now, of that number, only a small fraction can be considered actual war fighters as the “tooth-to-tail ratio” of core combat fighters to support / logistic / intel / supply personnel averages around 1:5, and up to 1:10.
Using that ratio, that means there are only roughly 250,000 to 300,000 combat trained / experienced fighters in the military–and they are scattered all over the globe. The rest, although they went thru basic, have not, and likely will never see front line action (the Marines being the exception). So that puts them on more or less equal footing with non-military, but highly motivated civilians outraged at their treatment from fascist, oligarchic despots.
Yes, you can toss in several thousand National Guardsmen, but they are part-time warriors, ensconced in their communities, and orders to kill fellow Americans–or neighbors–might not sit too well with them.
Yes, the rabid, maniacal homicidal SWAT types from all the federal agencies would be used, and likely used first, since they are brainwashed and highly politicized. They are ready, willing and quite eager to murder fellow Americans (e.g. Ruby Ridge, Waco, Bundy Ranch standoff, and murder of LaVoy Finicum.
Yes indeed, the federal government is itching to murder American citizens. I do not disagree. But I do not fear the military. I fear the apathy and cowardice of Americans abused by their government, but too fearful to do something about it.
And reality, dutchman, is in the eyes of the beholder. So I would urge you to remove the board in your eye before you criticize the splinter in mine.
Thank you, M-C. Dutch tends to get overbearing with his “everyone is wrong… except me” shtick.
And they have the US Military at their command, if needed.
???
Durham had to resign in order to become SC.
Weiss will have to as well.
They’ll figure it out in time.
Not like the media would cover it anyway.
Correct. They think people are dumb
They’ve doubled and tripled down on arrogance and stupidity.
They are guilty as charges of treason and sedition against WTP
Incorrect
Durham did not resign, and didn’t need to resign, to become Special Counsel.
He retired after completing his investigation.
See my response to Betsy Jones earlier on this page…
Just read it, and thank you for the correction in my understanding.
I don’t want to be wrong, it doesn’t do any benefit.
… they will do what they want…
They are so in your face with the corruption. If the House doesn’t close these rogue agencies, they do not deserve to be re elected. Name me one agency who actually does their job? We would not miss, NIH FDC,EPA, ATF, DOJ, FBI. Then I would get the bad apples out of The State Department and the military. I forgot the CIA who appear to be going around the world trying to get socialists governments elected. Tell m I am wrong.
The only surprise here is eunuch Garland can keep a straight face while drooling BS.
Garland lacks tinsel strength 🙂
Shiny!
Satan taught him well.
You are right.
Name on member of the House or Senate, that is doing their job, of representing US.
WE can “fire” a bunch of them, in 2024.
Vote all incumbents out, party does NOT matter to THEM, WHY should it matter to US?
Throw ALL the BUMS OUT!
The Pentagon’s budget is twice what it should be.
Impeach Garland. Probably easier and more more logical. End the pretense of a functional Dept. of Justice now.
Republicans won’t even enforce subpoenas, they’re not going to impeach anyone. They’ll just go on TV and complain about being stonewalled and “there’s nothing we can do”
If there’s nothing they can do then what are they good for? NOTHING.
#REXIT now!
It’s a coverup, it stops the congressional investigation, is a hug and a kiss for Hunter and Joe, and even the media knows it.
And they will celebrate it among themselves because they know “their side” is getting protected……while they talk about equal Justice under the law and pivot to putting Trump in prison.
Sundance is not wrong.
The DOJ is also moving to dismiss without prejudice the misdemeanor charges filed in Delaware so they can be re-filed in a more appropriate venue.
I hope the judge makes them explain why venue in Delaware was ok until the sweetheart plea deal blew up. And I hope she denies their motion.
This is a key place where us normal people will be able to see a truth
— if the R’s call BS and refuse to stop their own investigations, we can read that one way —
If the R’s go along and say, ‘Oh, well, we can (or have to) stop our own efforts to root out corruption cuz the dems are finally on the case’ then we can all know that they are either not serious and therefore unfit to represent us — or worse, that they are in on it.
You require yet more proof?????
No. I also don’t need a map when I already know where I am going. But some people have not been there yet, and they might need a map.
Also, one of my great regrets over the past 20 years has been finding out how many people I once thought were honest but flawed turned out to be dishonest and flawed. Now, I appreciate every chance I get to find those things out about people sooner rather than later. This event provides one of those times, in the manner I described.
Creepy Groper Joe’s crimes lead straight to the Chicago Jesus & the majority of CONgress. His impeachment will never happen.
Impeach Merritless Gargoyle & his Cuban Dwarf. You already have clear evidence you gutless quislings.
SoldiersMom: I like your tactfully worded comment. 🙂
So this is why Newsom is pulling back from a debate with RDS.
They’ve figured out a way to let Crooked Joe run again.
He’s easier for Obama to manipulate from behind the curtain.
At this point, the only people they are fooling, is themselves.
You’re underestimating the low info and low iq by millions.
Psssst…quietly. Never stop your enemy when they are in the process of destroying themselves.
I wish we would get off of Hunter/Biden distraction and on to playing offense. The Dems are killing us with distraction after distraction. Meanwhile, our president was told by a corrupt judge that he cannot use inflammatory language to describe what the hell is going on here – or she will push the trial date up. So our president cannot speak to we the people.
This is all that matters. Some leader somewhere needs to step up and declare our entire government corrupt as hell before we lose our freedoms. It can’t be trump all the time, we need someone unexpected with gravitas – no, not sick Cheney.
Insane no one is speaking out as we lose our country, day by day, hour by hour. Hunter Biden stories are not going to save this country – they just make the other side feel vindicated.
Trusting “elections” when there are less than 5 patriots in DC.
I wouldn’t go that far. I think by now people are starting to understand this game. So much so that they are TIRED of it. No trust in media or government is the result of all of this and it’s pretty universal. The only ones who aren’t affected in this way are the likely suspects:
.
So people employed by or around government are the remaining people. And there’s a lot of them. But fewer than the rest of us.
The DOJ will now be able to claim, sorry, that’s an ongoing investigation, and we can’t comment on that. This will handcuff the House committee, to their great relief, and all will be able to claim that justice is blind. Once it’s served its purpose of delay and run out the clock on statute of limitations, they will declare that no reasonable prosecutor would file charges. This is an obvious move to put a wet blanket on the Hunter/Joe investigation. I am disgusted and furious
Stand back and rejoice that this website has been so informative and so accurate. It’s special in a country and people that are not truth centered. We knew something like this was coming. We are all disgusted and furious but we can only spread the truth. We are in for decades of tyranny.
Screwed again…………….
With a lot of help from the usual suspects!
That cocaine baggy is in there somewhere in one of them wagons!
You left the biggest cover up con artist collection of all, Fox “News”.
And this investigation just might be the lever that persuades Joe Biden to bow out for “health reasons” – with assurances that Hunter and the rest of the Biden clan will be slapped on the wrist at worse, if that.
There’s no reason for the system to even issue a slap on the wrist. The Special Council will go on till about a year after Election 2024.
How does this affect Hunter’s case before Delaware U.S. District Court Judge Maryellen Noreika? Does she no longer have Hunter’s case??? If so slick way to get rid of an unfavorable Federal Judge??? The Lawfare plan is coming together nicely neither Joe or Hunter have anything to worry about now!!! It’s how banana republic’s corrupt Judicial systems roll!!! JMO
The DOJ has moved to dismiss the case without prejudice so it can re-filed in a more “appropriate venue.” I hope she denies the motion.
The DOJ lawyers and Hunter’s (but I repeat myself) probably want a lefty judge in the DC district court to rubber-stamp a plea deal with a general grant of immunity, like the one the DE judge rejected.
It’s not like they are even TRYING to hide it.
I think people are missing the key point of what happened here today: With this appointment, Weiss just told the Delaware judge — who had just two weeks ago deep-sixed his sweetheart plea deal for Hunter, suggesting it was possibly UNCONSTITUTIONAL — to go pound sand. Weiss said he’s abandoning the case in Delaware, which he now claims was never the proper venue for the case to begin with! Now that he has special counsel status, Weiss can take the cases to their “proper venues” — DC and California. In reality, what he’s doing is simply judge-shopping. If he can’t get the sweetheart deal for Hunter in Delaware, he will just move the case to ultra-liberal DC and California, where he knows he will not have to face pesky questions from any judge about why Hunter is getting a deal that no other perp in U.S. history has ever received.
They are judge-shopping until they find one that will give Hunter total immunity for past and future indictments. I thought that was illegal?
Anything they do is legal.
Verstehen Sie?
The faces of evil
Now they can hide evidence, limit the scope of the investigation, drag it beyond the election, and give hunter immunity in other areas for his testimony on simply crimes.
I’m smelling bananas.
A pile of smashed bananas drawing flies just like a pile of…
yep predictable……………..
Yup.
Same as it ever was…
The executive branch is corrupted and flexing power by fiat. The legislative branch is mostly corrupt and unwilling to check the executive branch. The judicial branch is just sitting there pretending that the country is not burning down in flames and that the paper that holds it all together is not catching any of the fire. These branches, are ALL populated by cowardly humans. I have never seen so many cowards put together before. But maybe, just maybe. Most people are cowards and courage is rare. I’m disappointed in humanity….
It’s not humanity that will get us out of this mess — only God can help us now!
Let’s see what the RINOs do in the House. My guess is that this was just theatre to make the small donors believe that the R party was actually doing something to expose Biden corruption.
Now the DOJ can take it out of the hands of the RINOs in the House and bury it. But, hey, the RINOs can fund raise off of their partial efforts. They almost did something.
“We Almost Did Something” – RINO’s motto for 2023.
Ha! Was there ever any doubt? yep, all theater – to the GOP, “Thanks for nothing, as usual.”
They laugh at us. This is just another example.
AG Garland on June 23, 2023:
GARLAND: “Mr. Weiss had in fact more authority than a special counsel would’ve had. He has complete — he has — he had and has complete authority, as I said, to bring a case anywhere, he wants in his discretion.”
So why did Garland appoint Mr. Weiss as Special Counsel TODAY if Weiss had more authority than a Special Counsel? Was Garland lying in June? Did Garland lie under oath to both Congress and Senate re the scope of the authority of Weiss? And why Mr. Weiss who at the very least is guilty of obstruction of justice for allowing the statute of limitation pass on certain Hunter tax crimes, etc.?
The DoJ is rotten beyond repair.
This is why the impeachment effort should focus on Garland and not on Joe. They perceive the DOJ as their shield, turn it into their Achilles heel.
All.excellent.points.
It’s an abomination that no one in either government or the media will not raise these points.
I believe you have irrefutable arguments here.
Funny how congress is on recess. The republicans are covered with the smell of banana.
Typical recess period, through August and just past Labor Day.
Fake President, Fake investigation, Fake Department of Justice, Fake, Fake, Fake!
It’s all a web of lies.
Notice how Garland didn’t give specifics as to the scope of the “investigation.”
Also, when did the Special Counsel statute suddenly apply to private citizens?
That’s a really good question.
Humper/Hoover/Hunter has a small Secret Service protective detail assigned to him so he is not a private citizen.
Sounds like it’s time to hit Trump with another Obstruction of Justice charge once he says something about this obvious maneuver.
Can congress refund the DOJ until further notice?
and the Congress Rhino’s(which is Most) breathe a ‘sigh of Relief’ as they can now claim……But I tried and we were block, on going investigation etc. etc…..You know the drill….Lol, 100% Theater……..It’s become boring…..
I don’t understand. Wasn’t John Durham available ?
Correct cartoon from today’s Dr. Robert Malone Substack page:
Do you think Branden will resign ‘due to medical reasons’ (the msm narrative excuse) this year or early next year?
stop pretending
At or before the Dem Convention Biden will experience his “medical emergency.” Then the Super-Delegates (remember them?) will name an entirely new ticket of Gavin Newsom and somebody else, probably a “person of color” from somewhere in the SouthEast. Kamela Harris will get the heave-ho to the ho. Dem SuperDelegate rules mean they can totally ignore whatever the actual votes happened to show.
Oh yeah, the Super Elite Delegates. Easy money.
Stacey Abrams? No, Susan Rice.
I thought the appointee to “special council” had to be a not current government employee?
Is this right or wrong?
Only if you’re a Republican.
Right.
It’s just endless. Nothing good goes on in Washington D.C.
What a bunch of BS! These people think we are morons!
What a scam!
As I understand it, the plea deal fell apart, for whatever reason. However, the grant of immunity from all past crimes (except presumably those in the defunct plea deal) was not part of the plea agreement. It was included in the diversion agreement in the firearms charge, which is separate and over which the judge has no authority. I suspect the “prosecutor” therefore thought she wouldn’t read it and find the incredibly broad grant of immunity. She did read it, and she did point it out. But, as far as I know (per Robert Barnes), the immunity grant still stands. So it would be enlightening to ask Mr. Weiss what is left to investigate.
Meanwhile Trump is going to get railroaded and spend the rest of his life behind bars. Not a whole lot of winning going on here.
