Hunter found guilty on all counts.

Yep, now no investigations into any influence selling

Of course, Biden can now pardon Hunter and Trump to "get all this behind us and work for the American people."

he can't pardon Trump on state matters

coordinate with Gov Hochel to pardon Trump while Biden pardons Hunter.

The vice president’s son was among several of the Biden family business associates and entities subpoenaed by the SEC in March 2016 to hand over relevant evidence about the scheme, specifically “concerning Rosemont Seneca Bohai, LLC,” by the end of the month.

When the time came for Hunter to hand over key documents and communications to the SEC, he delayed. Nearly one month after the subpoena deadline on April 20, 2016, Hunter’s lawyers responded to the SEC, begging the agency to “treat this matter with the highest degree of confidentiality, consistent with Commission policy and applicable law.”

“The confidential nature of this investigation is very important to our client and it would be unfair, not just to our client, but also to his father, the Vice President of the United States, if his involvement in an SEC investigation and parallel criminal probe were to become the subject of any media attention,” Hunter’s legal counsel wrote.

A few weeks later on May 11, 2016, the SEC publicly announced charges against several of Hunter’s business partners but did not mention the Second Son. ...

“Mr. Biden’s response gratuitously invoked his father’s position as the Vice President in what could be interpreted as an effort to discourage further SEC scrutiny,” the Republicans wrote.

... Edward Lawrence noted Biden’s constant warnings about alleged threats to democracy on the campaign trail.

Lawrence then observed that Bragg – one of Biden’s fellow Democrats – waited until an election year to pursue a case against Biden’s chief opponent.

“How is it not a threat to democracy when you have a prosecutor from the same political party as the president waiting seven years … to prosecute in an election year a former president who is now an opponent?” Lawrence asked. ...

As evidence of coordination, President Trump and his defenders have cited the fact that Biden’s third-highest-ranking DOJ official, Matthew Colangelo, left the department to work on Bragg’s case.

Alvin Bragg Drops Charges against Leftist Columbia University Students Arrested for Pro-Hamas Protests

Manhattan’s George Soros-funded District Attorney Alvin Bragg has dropped all charges against dozens of Columbia University students who were arrested during pro-Hamas protests.

The students occupied and barricaded themselves in buildings on the college campus in April.

On Thursday, the anti-Trump Democrat prosecutor dropped all charges.

DA Bragg dropped cases against 30 students and staff members who were arrested during the campus unrest.

In the courtroom, Judge Kevin McGrath announced:

“All these matters are dismissed and sealed in the interest of justice.”

All the protesters were arrested on April 30.

They were taken into custody by NYPD hours after taking over Hamilton Hall, an academic building.

How much immunity should Presidents get? It’s an insanely difficult question, fraught with future consequence. But after closely observing the farcical fractured fairy tale of Fani “Gimme a G” Willis and the Love Bunnies, and having endured Stalinesque Judge Engoran’s appalling Soviet show trial, I’m leaning toward maximum immunity.

The tipline was reportedly created in response to a recent controversy in which a nurse at Texas Children's Hospital blew the whistle on the illegal use of taxpayer funds to perform transgender surgeries on minors.

Bannon, 70, must report to federal prison this Monday, July 1st, for not cooperating enthusiastically enough with the democrats’ stupid January 6th Committee and “avoiding” a January 6th subpoena. ...

In unrelated news, DOJ chief Merrick Garland is currently defying a Congressional subpoena that didn’t come from an unlawfully constituted committee. And unlike Steve Bannon, Grandma Garland is flying around free as a bird.

On Wednesday, Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey filed a lawsuit at the Supreme Court against the State of New York over its “check stub” conviction of President Trump. AG Bailey’s press release was titled, “Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey Files Suit Against New York for Election Interference.”

AG Bailey invoked a rare process allowing the Supreme Court to take original jurisdiction of certain types of cases purely between states, bypassing the need to first litigate through the lower courts. Specifically, Missouri seeks a Supreme Court injunction against New York that would do two things: lift Judge Merchan’s gag order and delay Trump’s sentencing until after the election.

Missouri’s main argument is that New York is improperly interfering with its citizens’ ability to participate fully in the presidential election, by prosecuting a major presidential candidate. In other words, it is election interference. Insurrection! A crime which, as you well know, is literally one million times worse than pickled cabbage, which scientists have determined is a superfood, a category including all plants that, though barely edible, show strong commercial prospects.

Here’s a link to Missouri’s election interference motion. The good news is it’s legible to non-lawyers, so feel free to dive in if you’re interested in more. The motion includes maybe the best current summary yet of all the foibles and problems attached to insurrectionist Alvin Bragg’s misguided prosecution.

It’s 2024, and anything could happen. I won’t speculate about whether the Supreme Court will take the case or what it might do after that. If Judge Merchan were smart, he’d drop the gag order and stay Trump’s sentencing pending the appeals. But, if he were smart, he’d never have taken the case to begin with. So.

Bob Woodward, the famous Watergate journalist who now writes for the Washington Post, has predicted that President Joe Biden will pardon his son Hunter before leaving office in January.

Woodward says he expects Biden to issue the pardon despite saying repeatedly that he would not do so.

Hunter Biden will be sentenced next month on drug and gun charges and faces tax charges in an upcoming trial.

But what about the BIG issue: the wholesale bribery scheme where Hunter collected the money foreign governments and oligarchs used to bribe Joe?
