Obscuring Biden’s Guilt

The media has done its level best to obscure and weaponize the debate about matters concerning the U.S. government interaction with Ukraine. Therefore, as a public service, let’s breakdown the issue to its basic components.

Burisma Holdings is a Ukrainian gas company, considered by many to be corrupt, that employed  former Vice President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, while Vice President Biden served as the point man for the Obama Administration to that nation.  Hunter has no known expertise in the gas business. (He is an attorney who has been a cocaine abuser and was dismissed from the Navy) The matter is similar to Hunter’s activities in China.  Hunter flew along with his father on Air Force two to China on an official mission, and returned with an over one billion dollar financial deal in his pocket, on a business area he also knew little or nothing about. 

In law, there is a concept known as “Prima Facie,” which, as explained at dictionary law.com, is  Latin for “at first look,” or “on its face,” referring to a lawsuit or criminal prosecution in which the evidence before trial is sufficient to prove the case unless there is substantial contradictory evidence presented at trial. A prima facie case presented to a Grand Jury by the prosecution will result in an indictment.

The enrichment of a vice-president’s son with nations the Vice President was directly and simultaneously dealing with, and, indeed, the accompanying of the son with the Vice President on Air Force Two is Prima Facie evidence of both Hunter and Joe Biden’s violation of federal law, specifically, 5 Code of Federal Regulations Sec. 2635.702: Use of Public Office for Private Gain.  . The law is rather clearly written:

“An employee shall Any situation can side effects from viagra lead sufferers towards inferiority complex as well as restoring the overall kidney function so as to avoid unsanitary sexual life in their daily life. ED viagra in usa basically involves causing trouble to a man’s erection fails when sexual intercourse is attempted, especially if thinking about the problem makes it worse. There are natural remedies being offered like cheap sildenafil the herb Gingko. Anil Lakhani, ED Gini and Jony said, “M’loyal platform viagra discount is helping us in customer acquisition, retention and engagement, customer behavior and hence going for a more targeted marketing rather than bulk blasts to unknown consumer’s It has enabled focused communications to a set of customer’s rather than blanket messages to all. not use his public office for his own private gain, for the endorsement of any product, service or enterprise, or for the private gain of friends, relatives, or persons with whom the employee is affiliated in a nongovernmental capacity, including nonprofit organizations of which the employee is an officer or member, and persons with whom the employee has or seeks employment or business relations. The specific prohibitions set forth in paragraphs (a) through (d) of this section apply this general standard, but are not intended to be exclusive or to limit the application of this section…To ensure that the performance of his official duties does not give rise to an appearance of use of public office for private gain or of giving preferential treatment, an employee whose duties would affect the financial interests of a friend, relative or person with whom he is affiliated in a nongovernmental capacity shall comply with any applicable requirements of § 2635.502.

The Wall Street Journal described Hunter’s China business: “BHR Partners was officially registered 12 days after Hunter Biden in December 2013 flew to Beijing aboard Air Force Two, while his father made an official visit as vice president. Hunter Biden… owns 10% of a private-equity firm called Bohai Harvest RST (Shanghai) Equity Investment Fund Management Co…Hunter Biden is one of nine directors of the firm, known as BHR Partners, which is controlled and funded primarily by large Chinese government-owned shareholders.”

There is a similarity between the way the Democrat majority in the House of Representatives and their media allies have responded to the Biden violation of the Code of Federal Regulations and the way they responded to the abuse of the FBI in the now debunked charges of Russian Collusion with the Trump campaign.  In each instance, legal and ethical violations on the part of key Democrats occurred. To obscure their guilt, (first in abusing the legal process to spy on a rival campaign, and currently, to gain unlawful enrichment) spurious charges were levelled against the Trump Administration.  Knowing that a biased media would dwell endlessly on the false charges, the tactic successfully distracted the public from the actual lawbreaking.

This “Resistance” is a Coup

For eight years, the Obama Administration ignored Constitutional checks on its power and ran roughshod on those with differing views. The IRS harassment of the Tea Party, Attorney General Loretta Lynch’s consideration of criminally prosecuting those that disagreed with the President’s climate change views, and the unlawful surveillance of an opposition campaign are just a few examples. National security protocols for communications were violated without penalty.  Major treaties, including the Paris Climate Accord and the Iran nuclear deal were unconstitutionally adopted without the consent of the Senate. Extraordinary conflicts of interests, including Clinton’s approval of the sale of the basic ingredient of nuclear weapons to the Russians followed by contributions to her foundation, abounded.

There was little fear of having to legally account for these and other misdeeds because a sure-thing successor waited in the wings. The perpetrators, both elected and appointed, would not be held to account by a friendly successor Administration.

The surprising results of the 2016 Presidential campaign terrified the perpetrators, who were suddenly vulnerable to exposure and prosecution.  In all other instances when an administration was replaced by one from a different party or ideology the retired leader and his appointees quietly moved on, and their party looked forward to the next election.

That wouldn’t work for the Obama Administration.  The legal exposure was vast and deadly serious. It wasn’t just political embarrassment or job loss that would result.  For some, penalties including jail time could be their fate. When Trump won, that left one alternative for those whose lives were on the line:  to somehow delegitimize the new government.

Doing so would be a very hard sell, and besides, even if both the President and Vice President were somehow tossed from office, the Speaker of the House, another Republican, would become the new president. The GOP itself had to be delegitimized, so that they would lose the 2018 midterms and a Democrat would be the new speaker.  Ginning up false and overblown controversies, including the Russian Collusion and other artificial charges, was the path chosen.

Democrats and their media allies term it a “Resistance,” a much more palatable term than what it really is—an attempt at a coup.

The key wrongdoers eagerly push the concept.  Obama tossed aside all precedent and remained active in public affairs.  Hillary Clinton touts the idea of Trump being unqualified.  The former heads of the FBI and the CIA, as well as their key underlings, many of whom were the most legally vulnerable, desperately worked the talk show and press circuit.  A sympathetic media ignores astounding acts, such as former CIA chief John Brennan’s admonition to federal employees to ignore Presidential directives. Some elected officials fail to condemn violent riots and outright talk of assassination by misguided celebrities.

No one is asking what the “Resistance” is resisting.  Simply disagreeing with the policies of the elected government is not “resistance;” it’s the consequence of losing at the ballot box.

In the two years since the 2016 election, we have seen, in addition to the antics of partisan current and former members of the FBI, CIA, and the Department of Justice, a former Secretary of State, John Kerry, roam the globe telling allies and adversaries to ignore the current U.S. government, and the radical 9th Circuit Court of Appeals seek (unsuccessfully) to overturn legitimate presidential power.  Coordinated efforts by Democrat-friendly media and entertainment outlets have sought to create a wholly unsubstantiated sense of crisis.

This is not the vigorous policy fights and harsh campaign rhetoric that are the business as usual of politics.  They are the desperate measures of those seeking to overturn an election in order to avoid exposure of their wrongdoing and the consequences that would follow.
