Hunter Biden’s lawyer filed an ethics complaint in the House of Representatives on Friday against Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene for reaching a “new level of abhorrent behavior” after she displayed sexually explicit pictures of him during a hearing Wednesday.
Again. What the fuck does Hunter Biden matter, and why is this Scarecrow looking scab insist on wasting our money on this garbage?
hunter biden matters to republicans because he’s the only thing they can hang on joe biden, who has been honestly masterful in the way he’s navigated the late and post-pandemic.
I honestly don’t understand why they act like Joe Biden is the only politician with a child who has addiction issues and/or failed relationships. Donald Trump Jr. is also divorced and has had alcohol addiction problems. During the Biden/Trump debates I almost wanted Biden to mention Don Jr’s problems since Don Sr kept bringing up Hunter, but fortunately familial attacks are beneath Biden.
If they cared about what close relatives of presidents were doing, they should be investigating Jared’s deal with the Saudis.
The Kushner family sounds almost even more dysfunctional than the Trump or Biden families combined. Jared’s dad has been in jail for a while because he solicited a prostitute for Jared’s uncle(elder Kushner’s brother-in-law) because he wanted to prove to his sister that her husband was a bad person and divorce him. Jared and Ivanka’s kids will probably have to have a lot of therapy, not to mention Jared’s cousins and their children.
you’re still assuming good faith. stop it. they’re not interested in developing a well-rounded worldview and a rational approach to solving the problems that face America. They’re interested in seizing as much power as possible and hurting their opponents as much as possible. Once you realize that, their actions start to make perfect sense. Acting like Joe Biden is the only politician with a problem child serves that end. Ignoring Don Jr’s obvious coke and booze habit serves that end. There is no guiding philosophy to them, no principles they serve, no basis of human decency in which they even pretend to embed themselves. They’ve gone full Lee Atwater: they know who they’re enemies are and they’ll hurt everyone as long as their enemies get hurt too.
People’s mistake is thinking fascism is an evil ideology that uses any tactics necessary to achieve its goals.
What they don’t realize is that “ideology” and “tactics” need to be reversed in this statement: fascism is a cynical tactic that uses any ideology necessary to achieve its goals.
It will hate groomers on Tuesday and find grooming “the only way to raise responsible, patriotic citizens” on that same exact Tuesday, later in the afternoon.
It will hate nepotism and family connections in the same breath as it calls Ivanka “smart” for wielding her presidential clout to enrich herself.
It will defend the sanctitude of the life belonging to a fetus right up until the main threats to that fetus are poor access to medical care, financial stress leading to miscarriages, and our unsustainable car infrastructure killing off pregnant mothers right alongside every other type of person. THOSE fetuses were killed by the laws of nature of course, (and they certainly lack a level of sanctity that competes with Americans’ right to be forced to drive twenty minutes to the nearest grocery store and ninety minutes to their place of employment on threat of homelessness. That “right” is inviolable.)
There’s no ideology here. No utopia on the map. No belief about how to improve society. There is merely the last, dying , defiant warcry of a certain subset of corporations. A subset that profits more from maintaining underclasses than they do from providing a product to a stable society. A subset that needs to keep reminding black people that if they don’t like working for dirt wages at Amazon, they can always get the police involved and die with a police officer’s knee on their neck.
And the question isn’t, “can our ideology defeat theirs?” Because there was never a single belief to defeat in the first place. The question here is “can democracy survive?”
And so far, it’s holding up better than it did in Italy and Germay. 1930s Germany wouldn’t have thrown the Patriot Front in jail. Wouldn’t have convicted the Wolverine Watchmen, either. Certainly wouldn’t be prosecuting the Proud Boys who showed up to Jan 6.
Thanks for saying what needs to be said over and over.
My concern is this is all going on the slow cooker. Sending proud boys to prison so they can be trained into better terrorists for next time. The right wingers who were willing to take decisive action were able to organize, meet up, and commit violence against democracy while our surveillance state did… Essentially nothing to prevent it?
I can see that. Like how Hitler wrote Mein Kampf during his 264-day incarceration in Landsberg Prison for his Jan-6-style insurrection attempt.
What? No that’s not it. They highlight this because when liberals all respond saying they don’t care about this they help reinforce to republicans that they shouldn’t care about Trump’s prostitution stuff or “grab em by the pussy”. It makes liberals look like people doing a performance who don’t actually hold those things as principles because they’re entirely willing to toss them aside for certain issues.
I don’t have a dog in this race because I’m not american.
I’m not American either but my wife is so I know more about this than I would like. Like Hunter Biden is not in government and all he has done is smoke crack, have sex with prostitutes, swindle money from corpos by saying who his dad is and have a massive shlong so I don’t see the connection.
Like american politicians in general come off to me as the most insincere people in the whole world. Like half of them probably do cocaine regularly, quite a few are obvious child molesters, pretty much all of them abuse their position just to fill their wallet with platant insider trading and the rest are owned by major corporations. No one there needs help to seem like it’s just a performance. Like the only thing in American politics that seems sincere is republicans hating minorities, they are just making that their central focus even if it’s not popular.
I’m American and have so far not had to see Hunter Biden’s cock, but now I know it’s massive. Good. Now I know republicans just LOVE showing off massive cocks to everyone they can.
To be fair this isn’t limited to america. Liberals in europe are equally as detestable and insincere. Macron being the premiere example. I think it’s just highly noticeable in american politics because they have no left.
Does Macron even count as a liberal? He outright said the French revolution was a mistake and a monarchie would have been better. That along with trying to do some police state shit makes it seem he’s just an authoritarian.
Modern liberals all believe that. Liberals gave up the social and economic justice beliefs of the Enlightenment as soon as they attained power post-revolution, socialists inherited the Enlightenment thought and became the new left opposition pushing for real justice.
Unfortunately a lot of people who claim to be socialist just follow Stalin’s and Lenin’s ideology of authoritarianism not much better than fascism with a history of executing actual socialists the moment they get into power. Thankfully Eastern Europe, having lived through the horrors of Stalin’s regime, are better at seeing through that bullshit.
Also while most of liberal policies are just a way to make the rich richer, believing monarchy is the way to go and wanting a police surveillance state does not seem to be a common belief.
I want you to ask some of the jews that were liberated from death camps whether they think socialism was “not much better than fascism”.
You’re calling people like Jeremy Corbyn a monster, who regularly defends the ussr, correctly so. That’s how far off the deep end you people are in terms of understanding of this topic.
I am originally FROM eastern europe(Czech) and this is just false. You are talking to people born in the 80s and 90s, brought up on an education system designed with a hefty quantity of anticommunism. You are not talking to people that actually lived under socialism at an age where they can remember any of it.
We have data to back this up anyway:

You are objectively and measurably wrong. You are repeating repetitive garbage that you have seen moronic far right americans on reddit who have their brains riddled with the legacy of two red-scares repeat over and over again. Which you too repeat as fact despite it being simply not true.
But of course you’ll completely ignore all of this absolutely factual information and still repeat garbage again next time because you people don’t care about reality, you invent your own. When information that should make you self-crit and reevaluate your world view is presented to you the reactionary attitude you hold causes you to discard it.
We’re not really saying “we don’t care.” What we’re saying is: Hunter Biden isn’t on the ballot. There’s no evidence that Joe Biden did anything illegal so this isn’t changing our voting plans. If Hunter did something illegal, he should get an appropriate punishment for it, but this should also apply to Don Jr, Ivanka, and everyone else.
Instead, Republicans want to “get” Hunter Biden on something - anything - and tie Joe Biden to that by virtue of being Hunter’s father. However, they also don’t want anything Trump’s kids do to be tied to Trump. It’s an obvious double standard employed for political gain without any regard for the truth.
It’s not Trump vs. Hunter Biden, but Trump vs. Joe Biden, so this sounds like the typical brainworm-reasoning that you get from right-wingers.
Donald Trump himself is the one doing the bad stuff, Biden‘s son‘s actions can’t be pinned on his father. Especially so because Hunter is not in in the government, unlike the monsters that are Trump‘s spawn.
Ok Boris.
Oh grow up. I’m half Czech, half British and reside in the UK. I also moderate the UK’s largest leftist subreddit /r/greenandpleasant.
Duly noted, Ivan.
oh you’re right in that this serves an overall strategy they call “flooding the zone”, which is where you try to make your actual hideousness seem equivalent to your opponents in order to encourage people to just check out of politics. In 2016 one of Trump’s key campaign strategies was getting Clinton voters to stay home on the idea that “they’re all the same anyway, what does it matter?” But the fact is liberals do care, and they want to see justice done. Hunter Biden has been charged with federal crimes and plead guilty, and there’s no liberal backlash because he did that shit. They tried this with the Epstein plane too. They were like “But Bill Clinton was on the plane too” and most people’s reaction was “he can have the cell next to Trump’s”.
They don’t need an overall backlash though. They just need some people to do it, even in this thread there’s a bunch of people doing it. This then becomes all the evidence that people in the other tribe need to believe it on the whole as a widespread thing.
Because he’s sneaking cocaine into the White house?
Y’all been calling his dad sleepy for years he had to help wake him up somehow
Well if you put it that way, how am I supposed to argue against that. 😆

Sneaking it in and hiding it in a visitors’ belongings section! That’s definitely plausible!
Plausible deniability!
Nah I’m just kidding, but that would be a good place to hide it.
Not really, it got found
A more plausible explanation is that a visitor on a tour brought it and left it there, and Occam’s Razor says that the simplest explanation is most likely the correct one.
But that doesn’t feed your insane narrative about Biden Crime Family, so I can see why you’d rather live in a fantasy world where you feel vindicated for having bad opinions.
It’s more plausible that some random someone on a tour left their cocaine in a place they weren’t returning to rather than someone with regular access left their stash for later.
Ok, I guess.
Because people high on drugs are known for their excellent decision making and clear-mindedness, right?
Regardless, whoever left it there probably didn’t intend to leave it there. Maybe they left it in there along with their cell phone (which gets checked at the west wing entrance when you go in for a tour) and then forgot to grab it when they went to leave.
I guess we’ll never know, since the investigation closed with zero suspects.
Doesn’t take a genius to piece the two together.
It sounds like you don’t understand nearly how many people go into the White House every day.
Typically, when you have no idea what you’re talking about, it is more prudent to keep your thoughts to yourself until you do.
You should be telling me whose cocaine was found at the WH instead of all this nonsense.
You seem to know a lot about this cocain, I guess it must be yours. It doesn’t take a genius to piece the two together.
Source?
Just trust 'em.
Some things don’t need a source. TM.
You remind me of a redneck I went to high school with who once told me, “my opinions is facts.” I wonder what correctional institution he ended up in?

Possession of drugs by family member of president, no proof needed.
Sitting president inciting a riot on live tv and Twitter, ‘we need to wait for all the evidence’.
I’ll go first, investigate Hunter Biden, Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton and any other dem boogeyman you can think of. If they broke the law, send them to jail.
Now your turn, except do Trump.
Some more Whataboutism… Cope.
Cope with what? That Biden is the President? Cope with the fact fascists republicans will get their asses handed to them in the next election? Or should we cope with the plain as day fact that Don Jr and his wife are coke addicts and dropped coke on the floor while on drug infused binges in the WH. This is the coke traces they found, from Don Jr and his wife doing drugs in the WH. Sad.
Yeah, I think people will cope just fine. If I were interested in you I would ask “you OK?” but then again, you do not matter at all so no need to know the state of nothingness.
Don’t feed the trolls, block them.
If I do not matter, why did you bother to reply to my comments 🤷♂️
Because of others. Not you. Simple. Yet difficult for you 🤷♂️
Lies certainly don’t.
Is Hunter a crack addict or not?
It doesn’t follow that it was his coke.

Is Don Jr a coke addict or not? He is, I have it for a fact. And he did coke in the WH, the little basterd left coke traces in the WH and they now found them. Him and his druggie wife are really despicable.
You agree of course!
You won’t be laughing when Trump wins 2024.
Poor delusional child. Sad.
Why do you want a rapist that exposes nuclear secrets to be president?
I laughed when Trump got his pussy blown out in 2020. Imagine being so hated and incompetent that you lose to Joe Biden in a landslide. That has to sting.
Donald Trump Jr says what?
Biden derangement syndrome.
Indeed, like we all know Don Jr and his wife are coke addicts and dropped coke on the floor while on drug infused binges in the WH. This is the coke traces they found, from Don Jr and his wife doing drugs in the WH.
This is a simple fact and I have heard so many people say Don Jr did drugs in the WH, it is quite sad actually.
Cope.
No problem here, you on the other hand, defending dug abusers in the WH, tssk ssk tssk.
*drug abusers.
Glad you know your base!
I assumed that it belonged to Coke n Cock Cawthorn
no, you need a source for things
Is he smuggling the drugs in his penis? Or
Ask the FBI maybe they can tell you.
Sounded like you knew. But now it sounds like you’re just deflecting 👍

I thought the fbi, cia and all the other 3 letter agencies were just Astral projections from the lizard people living one floor up on the flat-earth?
These chemtrails keep making my brain hurt. the more I think about Jewish space lasers disrupting our electoral process and stealing the election for the Biden crime family, the more I get disgusted by their feverish use of adrenochrome.
Anyway, I ran out of tropes to mock you with. Have a great day.
Appreciate the light humor. Good day to you too.
prove your allegation, troll
Ok, Boris.
