Marco Polo Report reveals Xi Jinping personally approved Bidens' meetings with Chinese energy tycoon
China's President Xi Jinping, who Hunter called "No. 1," personally approved meetings between VP Joe Biden and CEFC Chairman Ye Jianming, according to the 630-page report sent to U.S. Congress.

REPORTER: You call Biden a criminal. Why is that?

TRUMP: He is a criminal. He got caught. Read his laptop. And you know who's a criminal? You're a criminal for not reporting it.

The FBI took possession of the Biden Laptop—via grand jury subpoena—on December 9, 2019. The two agents from the Wilmington Resident Agency of the Baltimore Field Office who delivered that subpoena to the laptop repair shop owner (Mac Isaac) were Josh Wilson and Mike Dzielak.

Wilson and Dzielak have since attempted to scrub their online footprint, but Wilson is still featured in several articles. Locating a picture of Dzielak, however, proved somewhat difficult—and now we know why. In his soon-to-be-released book, Mac Isaac recounts how Dzielak told Mac Isaac the following—in a serious tone—after delivering the grand jury subpoena: “It is our experience that nothing ever happens to people that don’t talk about these things.” Well, Mac Isaac did “talk about these things” after Dzielak and Wilson (& the FBI HQ) slow-walked the investigation into the Bidens.

We ask that you peacefully and patriotically demand answers about this miscarriage of justice concerning one of the biggest law enforcement and political scandals of the 21st century—his email is michael.dzielak@ic.fbi .gov">michael.dzielak@ic.fbi .gov

In your correspondence to Dzielak, please cc Josh Wilson (jwilson@fbi.gov ) and the Special Agent in Charge of the Baltimore Field Office—the boss of Dzielak’s boss—Tom Sobocinski (thomas.sobocinski@ic.fbi .gov">thomas.sobocinski@ic.fbi .gov ). In addition, please cc the U.S. Attorney for the District of Delaware David Weiss (david.weiss@usdoj.gov ) and the other federal prosecutor assigned to the Biden “investigation,” Lesley Wolf (lesley.wolf@usdoj.gov ).

The disgraced divorcé Dzielak must answer for his actions. We are not going to forget about this and it’s not going away.

Josh Wilson and Mike Dzielak.

McCarthy said his priories are Hunter Biden, the FBI/DOJ, the Jan 6 investigations, Biden's energy policy disaster, COVID coverups, the border, fentayl drug trafficking, and the Afghanistan withdrawl.

Which is why I expect an after-hours vote steal for those 5 Senator seats that polling shows Republicans will win.

Also examine those mail in ballots to verify it is from a legal voter (i.e., is alive, only registered to vote in one state, and does not vote more than once) and that the signature on the ballot matches the signature on file.

Hunter's Guy at the DOJ
Nick McQuaid has returned to Latham & Watkins bearing gifts: intel on the Biden "investigation."

A “white shoe” lawyer for Obama & Biden has returned to his old firm after a stint at the DOJ. Swamp machinations like this happen weekly. So why does this matter?

As we laid out on pages 13ff in our Report, Nicholas “Nick” McQuaid was installed on Joe’s first full day in office as the deputy head of the DOJ’s criminal division. McQuaid was a colleague to Hunter Biden’s attorney, Chris Clark, at Latham & Watkins LLP; McQuaid & Clark even argued cases together. In essence, Joe installed someone—with whom Clark had a personal relationship—to supervise the department investigating Joe’s own family.

What do Hunter Biden, Ghislaine Maxwell, and R. Kelly have in common? Federal Sex Trafficking.
Ghislaine got 20 years. R. Kelly got 30 years. How many years will Hunter Biden get?

Hunter's Other Guy at the DOJ
Hunter's son-in-law, Peter Neal, interned with attorneys in the FARA Unit, the same entity which should be investigating Hunter.

The shamelessness & irony knows no bounds.

Peter Neal was married to Naomi Biden today on the South Lawn of the White House. Naomi is Hunter’s oldest daughter who caused Hunter & Kathleen to hold a shotgun wedding in 1993. Naomi & Peter have also been living in the White House for months.) Lapdogs in the mainstream media have written about some of these facts, despite the Bidens not allowing press to cover the ceremony or other wedding festivities.

CBS ‘confirms’ Hunter Biden laptop is real 769 days after Post broke story
By Steven Nelson
November 21, 2022

As Republicans vow to investigate the alleged misconduct of the Biden family and, especially, first son Hunter Biden, Republican Texas Sen. Ted Cruz wants lawmakers to prioritize President Joe Biden instead.

On his "Verdict with Ted Cruz" podcast, the senator said "[t]he focus needs to be on Joe Biden; this is not about Hunter Biden, any more than if you're going after the mafia and you catch some low-level enforcer, or you're going after a drug cartel and you catch some mule who swallowed balloons full of heroin."

"It's not about the poor schlub who got caught. It's about the boss," Fox News quoted Cruz as saying. "It's about the big guy. It's about the Godfather, Joe Biden is the Godfather. He is the one who ultimately is profiting on this corruption. He is the one who is abusing official authority to further the criminal activity of his family members. And that's why this is an issue of public corruption."

Ex-Intelligence Officials Who Said Hunter Biden Laptop Story Was a Russian Operation Silent After Twitter Files Released

Former top intelligence officials who signed an open letter suggesting the Hunter Biden laptop story was part of a Russian operation just weeks before the 2020 election were silent after internal Twitter emails acknowledged there was no evidence the story involved material that was illicitly obtained.

But this is all a distraction from the bigger crime, which is Joe Biden selling control of the US to China and Ukraine via Hunter.

https://spectatorworld.com/topic/twitter-suppressed-hunter-biden-laptop-story/

Let’s review succinctly, what we now know from a multitude of sources to be true about Hunter, his laptop and what Hunter was up to when he was bouncing around the world during the years Dad was Vice-President.

Hunter is the son of a prominent American politician. He has no other obvious skills. He was thrown out of the U.S. Navy for cocaine use. His home movies that are now splashed all over the internet show clearly that habit has not abated.

Nobody hires Hunter to do anything, because of his abilities or training. They certainly don’t hand him millions and sometimes billions of dollars at a sitting on that basis. They hand Hunter cash to buy access to his father.

Thugs, Communist dictators, and despots may be many things. They are not as a rule fools. They may hand you cash once and then wait to see if you can deliver. They won’t do it twice unless you come through.

They all kept coming back and lining up for Hunter.

At the top of the list of evil-doers with whom Hunter did business was the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Many of the folks with whom Hunter dealt were directly tied to Xi Jinping. Many were known Chinese intelligence officers. It has been established that Xi was personally aware of and sanctioned the contact with Hunter.

Everything about the CCP contact with Hunter is straight out of the playbook for what the Chinese call elite capture. The purpose of elite capture operations is to coopt foreign leaders and bend them to the will of the Chinese government.

The Chinese buy foreign leaders and from that point on those leaders do what the CCP tells them to do. Not the plot of a bad spy film. Happens every day all over the world.

Take the case of the Bidens - Change the names, change the facts to have occurred somewhere in Africa or Latin America, and without hesitation every intel analyst in the Intelligence Community would tell you that what the Chinese were doing was buying a senior foreign leader.

That is exactly what this is and always has been. It is not about Hunter Biden’s cocaine habit or embezzlement or even human trafficking as heinous as that is. This is an espionage case. This is about the intelligence apparatus of a foreign government gaining control over the man who sits in the Oval Office.

The Twitter Files are damning to the government
They show a coordinated attempt to suppress speech and cover up Hunter Biden’s laptop

There are two pieces of deeply disturbing news to emerge from the “Twitter Files” released by Elon Musk. The first is that Twitter, under its old management, was not the open, politically neutral platform it pretended to be. Journalist Bari Weiss has shown that Twitter had secret “blacklists” and related methods specifically designed to limit the reach of conservative commentators. When Twitter’s old management denied that bias, as it did repeatedly, it was lying.

Second, we are learning that Twitter worked closely with like-minded government bureaucrats to squelch legitimate news, information, and discussion. They did so to protect favored candidates (Democrats) and political positions (progressive). We will undoubtedly learn that Facebook, Google and other media giants had similar ties to Washington. We certainly need to know.

The government’s role here is damning. Its primary job under the First Amendment is to protect free speech, not to kill it. It botched that vital job, and it did so deliberately to increase its own control over private speech in public fora and, apparently, to promote certain political views. ...

As bad as Twitter’s old management was, the reaction of left-leaning journalists to Elon Musk’s efforts has been frankly astonishing. Instead of seeking full disclosure, as reporters normally would (and should), they have attacked Musk for trying to ensure it. Instead of demanding free speech, as honorable journalists would (and should), they have demanded even more censorship to stop legally permissible content from appearing on the social media platform. They believe in “free speech for me, but not for thee.”

Their distorted priorities are the hallmark of today’s media and another reason why the public no longer trusts journalists or their mates in the government bureaucracy. They are why the New York Times and Washington Post didn’t mention the “Twitter Files” story when it broke last Friday night or Bari Weiss’s bombshells when they broke Thursday night. “Nothing to see here” is the message from the paper that carries the banner “All the News That’s Fit to Print.” The Washington Post, which proclaims “Democracy Dies in Darkness,” went dark over the story. They are precisely what they warned us about. ...

The FBI and others were apparently careful to avoid any direct statements like “don’t publish this.” Instead, they said something like what King Henry II said when he effectively ordered the execution of Thomas Becket, the Archbishop of Canterbury. Henry asked his knights, “Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?” The king’s retainers did not mistake his meaning. They rode to Canterbury and murdered Becket in the Cathedral. The king’s indirect request was enough to communicate his clear purpose.

That seems to be how senior FBI officials communicated their desires to Twitter (and presumably Facebook and others). That’s how the Bureau seems to have killed the distribution of the damning story about Hunter Biden’s laptop. US law enforcement and intelligence agencies knew the New York Post was about to publish that story. Knowing that, they told social media giants, including Twitter, that the Russians were about to dump some disinformation. When the Post story appeared immediately after that FBI warning, Twitter connected the two. The link was even clearer when 51 former high-ranking intelligence agents publicly stated that the Hunter Biden story had “all the earmarks of a classic Russian disinformation operation.”

But the laptop story was not disinformation. It was true and well vetted when America’s fourth-largest newspaper published it. Hunter Biden himself never denied the laptop was his. Nor did he deny the contents in the newspaper story. Years later, mainstream media outlets have confirmed the truth of the New York Post story. But at the time, thanks to the government’s false narrative connecting the laptop with Russian disinformation (repeated for years by Democratic representatives, led by Adam Schiff), the story was suppressed on social media. The New York Post’s Twitter account was blocked. Private users were blocked if they tried to circulate the story. Twitter’s rationale for this suppression was that the laptop was “hacked material.” It wasn’t, and they knew it. Even Twitter insiders were troubled by that threadbare rationale.

We need to know everyone who was involved on the government side of this shameful exercise. We need to know what they knew, when they knew it, and what they secretly communicated to the media. We need to know if other social media sites besides Twitter were involved in this operation. And we need a few journalists with the backbone to stand with Elon Musk, Matt Taibbi, and Bari Weiss to expose this malfeasance.

The Hunter Biden laptop story is the loose strand of yarn that, when pulled, will unravel a vast network of corruption at the highest levels of the Administrative State.

As the tweets rolled out one by one, the machine once again whirred to life, with the blue checks running interference to ensure “the take” was disseminated to all media. Naturally, those in the press obeyed the command. They’ve learned their lesson by now not to object or dissent or think for themselves. ...

The Hunter Biden laptop story was meant to be an October surprise, which is standard operating procedure during an election.

What we don’t usually have is a coordinated effort to suppress it. We never had an entire media establishment aligned with the government to make that even possible. Trump changed all of that. The media took a side, which meant pushing the “Russian disinformation” lie a no-brainer.

Imagine taking the Access Hollywood tape, for instance, and trying to suppress that in the run-up to the election out of fear it might damage Trump or was “Russian disinformation.” How do you think that would have gone over?

What was so terrifying about watching the 2020 election was just how coordinated the media and social media have become to push the talking points of the Democrats like mindless robots.

Here is a mashup of those media voices compiled by Steven Bannon’s War Room podcast: ...

The story here is how much power was concentrated on one side, which has become a greater threat to Democracy than anything MAGA could ever have done. They spun themselves a fanciful tale that just kept getting bigger and more fantastical. They were isolating themselves inside their own feedback loop, and at some point, their imaginings about Trump morphed into irrational, uncontrollable, full-blown hysteria. ...

The “cabal” that bragged about rigging the election in TIME magazine admits all of this but they paint themselves as the heroes, saving the country from the villain they invented, fighting a war they didn’t understand, with Mollie Ball as their PR rep doing zero journalism:

They rigged the election by making it an uneven playing field. They used their power to distort the truth, find votes and bring in the win. They dragged Joe Biden, who didn’t campaign at all, over the finish line.

Even with all of that power, all of that control, they still just barely won. But that power they claimed didn’t belong to them. It belonged to the American people. But it is power they keep and still use.

Now, Elon Musk is a problem for them. ...

The Democrats now represent the elite ruling class. They keep their status and wealth by using marginalized groups and “woke” virtue signaling as shields. If they brand themselves as down with the newfound zealotry on the Left, they get to keep their stuff.

We now know that America’s Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) not only knew the truth but conspired to conceal it.

It has since been confirmed by multiple sources that the laptop did, in fact, belong to the president’s son, Hunter Biden.

The laptop revealed that Joe Biden and his family had knowingly taken money from former leaders of the intelligence services the Chinese Communist Party.

A staggering 62 percent of Democrat voters say it’s “likely” that they would have “changed” their vote during the 2020 presidential election if they knew the truth about the Hunter Biden laptop scandal, a new poll has revealed.

The survey, by TIPP Insights, found that 67 percent of American voters overall believe that the FBI and the intelligence community (IC) “misled the public” by claiming that the “Laptop from Hell” was part of a “Russian disinformation” campaign.

While it’s no surprise that Republicans feel that the suppression of the story corrupted the vote, the shock is how many Democrats and independent voters feel the election may have been swayed.

According to the survey, 31 percent of Democrats say it’s “very likely” that they would have “changed” their vote if they knew about Hunter’s laptop.

An additional 31% of Democrats also said it’s “somewhat likely” that the information would have “changed” their vote. ...

President Biden claims he’s never spoken to his son about his foreign business.

The emails on Hunter’s laptop prove otherwise.
