Speaking on the condition of anonymity, a senior aide to President Joe Biden told CNN last week that the president is “‘obsessed” with and “irritated” by the media coverage swirling around his son . According to the report, aides are refusing to even broach the topic with him. The aide said that any mention of H****r’s legal woes elicits “a level of personal angst unlike any other challenge for the president. H****r B***n is not a topic of discussion in campaign meetings. It’s just not addressed.”

Of course the president is upset over his son’s troubles. But he’s even more rattled because House investigators have begun to reveal evidence of his own complicity in his family’s overseas business dealings. And that evidence is slowly being corroborated by both bank records and eyewitnesses, including H****r’s former close friend and business partner Devon Archer.

The public is finally beginning to grasp that, without Joe Biden, there is no business. As Archer confirmed during his July 31 t***scribed interview with the House Oversight Committee, “then-Vice President Joe Biden was ‘the brand’ that his son sold around the world to enrich the Biden family.”

Last weekend, the New York Times and Politico reported new information about the Department of Justice’s handling of the case against H****r. We now know that in October 2022, U.S. Attorney David Weiss, who was named a special counsel in the case two weeks ago, was prepared to charge H****r with tax evasion and gun charges until H****r’s lawyer, Chris Clark, threatened to call the president himself to testify as a witness in a subsequent trial.

According to Politico , after much back and forth between H****r’s attorneys and federal prosecutors, Weiss reacted to Clark’s threat by agreeing to let H****r B***n off the hook without pleading guilty to any charges at all.

Unfortunately for H****r, a May 24 CBS News interview of IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley changed everything. Weiss was willing to keep the pretrial diversion agreement in place for the gun charge but insisted on guilty pleas for the tax charges.

As we know, the deal fell apart in spectacular fashion at the hands of Judge Maryellen Noreika on July 26. In particular, she took issue with the constitutionality of the diversion clause and the broad immunity the agreement provided to him. Hours later, H****r pleaded not guilty to all charges and left the courthouse.

Naturally, Joe Biden is distressed over his son’s troubles. But he is also upset for himself because he knows this was a family affair. Despite the Left’s insistence that this is a H****r B***n story, mounting evidence shows that Joe Biden is inextricably linked to his son’s unsavory foreign business dealings.

The collapse of H****r’s plea deal last month, followed by Archer’s admission that then-Vice President Joe Biden had appeared both in person and over speakerphone at meetings with his son’s foreign business associates, forced him to abandon his repeated claim that he had no knowledge of his son’s overseas business dealings. And the Politico and New York Times reports will force him to abandon claims that his son’s case was handled objectively.

Biden never dreamed he would have to answer to the American public for any of his actions, and that made him sloppy.

Although we can’t be sure why Biden decided not to pursue the presidency in 2016, we know that he was grieving the loss of his eldest son Beau, who had died in May 2015. He also lacked the support of former President Barack Obama and other party kingmakers.

Wh**ever the reason, Biden may have thought his vice presidency provided his last opportunity to “cash in” on his influence. He could line his pockets — and his family’s — leave the White House in January 2017, and no one would be the wiser.

And indeed, had he chosen not to run in 2020, no one would have been the wiser. Nevertheless, with all of these skeletons h*****g in his family’s closet, he decided to seek the presidency in 2019. He likely thought the DOJ would protect him from any legal consequences. And they certainly tried.

But he and his wayward son left behind a substantial trail of evidence. And the DOJ has been complicit in covering it up. That’s called obstruction.

The t***h is slowly being revealed thanks to the relentless efforts of House Republicans such as Rep. James Comer (R-KY). He and his colleagues will not stop until the Biden family influence peddling business has been exposed.

This is bad news for H****r. For Joe, it will be checkmate.

The topic title reminds me of Levitt to Barney Miller ... "Feeling a bit picayune today sir?"

"Last weekend, the New York Times and Politico reported new information about ... " It's always 'last week/yesterday/forever' ... and never go to trial. Sorry, getting a bit jaded after 5 years.

Yes, you make a point, the crimes are clear but after 5 years it seems that it may never go to trial, wonder if the outcome would be the same were it a nephew of yours facing similar circumstances.
