Grassley wondered why nobody followed up,

Heh.

And as a result of these amazing findings, this is what will happen ..... <____________>

Unless of course this a move by the Deep State to remove Biden from the race and replace him with Newsome, etc.

$10M Magically Appeared In Biden’s 2017 Tax Return; House GOP Investigating

House Republicans are demanding increased transparency from President Joe Biden on his personal tax returns after an investigation found one of his corporate entities reported nearly $10 million in revenue without detailing the sources. The president’s critics believe the sudden influx of money may be related to allegations of bribery against the president.

Republican Sen. Tex Cruz (R-TX) grilled FBI Deputy Director Paul Abbate during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Tuesday.

Cruz blasted Abbate for refusing to answer questions about alleged audio tapes of Democrat President Joe Biden discussing a bribery scheme.

The recordings reportedly include then-Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden speaking with a Ukrainian executive who may have paid millions of dollars in bribes to both of them.

“Last month, a whistleblower brought to light the existence in the FBI of a report, an FD-1023, in which the informant alleges that President Biden and his family members engaged in a $5 million bribery scheme during his time as vice president,” Cruz said.

“Deputy Director Abbate, is it true that the FBI has a report making those allegations?”

“I’m not going to comment on that, Senator,” Abbate responded.

When repeatedly pressed on the matter, Abbate said that he would not comment on the matter. ...

“Deputy Director Abbate, does the FBI have 17 voice recordings laying out evidence of a bribery scheme?”

Abbate would not reveal if any of the recordings existed.

The do exist and both Hunter and Pedo Joe are criminal scum protected by yet worse criminal scum at the FBI, people who are actively undermining the rule of law every day.

In another terrific clip yesterday, Senator Josh Hawley interrogated an FBI official during a Senate hearing about the Biden Bribery document, and steam-pressed the FBI official into a figurative Cuban sandwich over why the document had not been publicly released, especially considering it is UNCLASSIFIED.

Laughably, the FBI official claimed the reason the agency refused to release the document is because “we are serious about protecting people.”

@DailyCaller
Josh Hawley ROASTS FBI Official During Senate Hearing

.
@HawleyMO
: "We've confirmed that the document exists...after you first denied it...Why don't you just release it? Is it classified?"

FBI OFFICIAL: "The document is not classified."

HAWLEY: "Will you commit to releasing this unclassified document that alleges that the President...has taken $5 million in bribes from a foreign nation?"

FBI OFFICIAL: "The document...contains sensitive information."



Here is the single most important point, an explosive truth that I believe will soon overtake the entire story: when the democrats impeached President Trump in 2017 for a single phone call to Ukraine requesting an investigation, they claimed Trump was lying, inventing an awful story to smear poor, impeccable Joe Biden and injure the candidate’s electoral chances. That was the democrats’ charge, and even some Republicans went along with it.

They impeached the President over this allegation.

But, at the time, the FBI had this Biden Bribery document in its vault. They knew all about it. In other words, the agency had credible information from a reliable informant establishing that what Trump was asking the Ukrainians for was not made up but was likely correct; Trump was properly following up on the very same information that the FBI was busily NOT following up on.

At the time, during months of impeachment trial dragging on, the FBI never ever said ANYTHING TO ANYBODY. The agency that “takes protecting people seriously” let the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA be impeached — even though they could have immediately ended the entire farce with a single statement, by confirming that Trump’s phone call was founded on evidence and was not, as Democrats falsely argued, completely made up.

The FBI did not protect the President. They could have ended the impeachment show trial even without disclosing their source or any details about the document; all they would’ve had to do is admit the report existed.

But — for some reason — the FBI did not do that. It kept its mouth shut. And that’s what Senator Hawley should ask the FBI about next, because that question will unravel this whole, sordid, criminal conspiracy.

🔥 Yesterday, social media influencer Tim Pool used his main TimCast IRL channel to explore the Biden Bribery document story, the FBI’s obvious coverup, and their many implications. The dialogue between the host and his co-hosts was interesting, informative, and ultimately surprising. It’s worth noting that Pool is not exactly a hardened conservative, he’s usually labeled center-right or independent, but he finds the Biden Bribery document story to be extremely troubling. ...

Toward the end of the three-minute clip, Tim made this comment, which is remarkable in several ways:

“There is a criminal syndicate in the government. I don’t know how many, I don’t know… you know… But we do know that the FBI is purposefully NOT prosecuting certain individuals, and so whoever is instructing these people to do this is part of some kind of criminal syndicate. I’m not trying to make it seem like there’s a network of thousands of people with initiation or anything like that. I’m saying certain elements of the FBI, the executive branch, and the democratic party are absolutely subverting the law in this country, in collusion with each other.”

The way Pool described it is probably a much better and more accurate way to describe what’s been going on than the overused phrase, “deep state.” First, it is more legally precise to refer to the bad actors as co-conspirators in a “criminal syndicate” within the government. Second, that additional precision can avoid triggering independents and people who believe the phrase “deep state” is just a dog whistle for MAGA conservatives.

A gripping rhetorical adjustment can often turn the debate.

I’ll try using the term criminal syndicate for a while, and see how it feels.

(Victor Davis) Hanson writes what I embed below and can we get an AMEN for the brother! The Biden family may well have pulled off the greatest pay-for-play grifting scam in presidential history, one that encompassed a decade of selling access to Vice President Biden and supposedly someday President Biden. That the entire kleptocracy will likely only be prosecuted if a Republican administration return

Another sign of decline is the weaponization and politicization of institutions. Decadent societies indict their former leaders upon leaving offices. Those in power sic federal agencies on their opponents.

In turn, bureaucrats become agents of those in power, as if in private service— like laptop suppression, diary retrieval, performance-art raiding and arresting, or finding a presidential son’s missing gun.

The Biden family may well have pulled off the greatest pay-for-play grifting scam in presidential history, one that encompassed a decade of selling access to Vice President Biden and supposedly someday President Biden. That the entire kleptocracy will likely only be prosecuted if a Republican administration returns to power is again proof of our third-worldism.

The careers of John Brennan, James Clapper, James Comey, Anthony Fauci, Lois Lerner, Andrew McCabe, Lisa Page, Peter Strzok, and Christopher Wray were weaponized. The above either lied under oath when pressed, suppressed an email trail that exposed their culpability or worked hard to discredit or destroy a political candidate they opposed, or simply stonewalled when asked under oath for accountability.

If you doubt, remember that a non-compos mentis Biden is one more fall away from Kamala Harris, selected entirely based on her race and sex, and who seems to have a vocabulary smaller than her menu of various chuckles.

Her presidency really would prove that anyone at all can be president.

I heard someone explain the Hunter/Big Guy's cut this way:

Hunter said himself that he had to give the Big Guy 50% of his own cut. If that's true, and being that Hunter got $5 million, he would have had to give the Daddy $2.5 million. Add the $2.5 to the $5 million for Joe, the Big Guy's take is a whopping $7.5 million.

Being a VP is said to be the worst job in politics. Not so for Joe. He saw it as a means to enrich himself and spread it around to his equally corrupt family.

Thunder and Fury In DC--FBI Under Fire: Where Are The Recordings? How Many Years Did FBI Hide The FD-1023, Concealing Bidens $10 Million Bribery Scheme w. Ukrainian Businessmen?

Ted Cruz has had it. As Have We All. I Predict A BREAK In The Squalor, Justice In Near Future

“Do you have the 17 recordings yes or no?”

—Sen. Ted Cruz

“I’m not going to get further into that…”

—FBI Deputy Director Paul Abbate

Like hell you’re not.

Dude.

Stall for time, but where will you hide, and how, from the inevitable. The 17 recordings the FBI has.

It seems to be that the Biden/Obama Burisma FBI-gate tape scandal is catching fire fast. I’ve been reviewing the story for the past few hours and I feel the game is up for the gas-lighting FBI. I see no way the scandal can fizzle, or die in the shade, or go away because the Press Secretary dismisses it as “malarkey.”

I mention Obama because, as Dan Bongino points out, he was the POTUS when this went down so it’s an Obama/Biden affair, de facto. Let’s all read this carefully, from John Solomon, via Dan Bongino: “…in return for a US policy decision that Joe Biden could impact.” ...

Heated Exchange During Judiciary Committee Hearing Between Senator Ted Cruz And FBI Deputy Director Abbate Over The Biden 1023 Senator

“Last month, a whistleblower brought to light the existence in the FBI of a report, an FD-1023 in which the informant alleges that President Biden and his family members engaged in a $5 Million bribery scheme during his time as VP. Deputy Director Abbate, is it true that the FBI has a report making those allegations?" Deputy Director Abbate: "I'm not going to comment on that, Senator." Cruz: "And why is that?" Abbate: "I'm just not going to comment on information we've received investigations or other matters." Cruz: "You don't owe the American people an obligation to be candid about evidence of corruption by the President of the United States?" Abbate: "This is an area that I'm not going to get into with you, Senator." Cruz: "Well I understand you don't want to, and that's why people are mad at the FBI. Because you are stonewalling and covering up serious allegations of evidence of corruption from the President."

—The Columbia Bugle, Twitter

Sen. Masha Blackburn also stonewalled by super-stone-walley FBI Deep Director here.

I’ve never been so riveted by government agency stonewalling in my life.

It’s strangely fascinating.

Great broadcast on all this, Dan Bongino, who cornered the story long ago, and has become my favorite go-to on this unfolding fire of a story.

Bombshell interview with Rep. Byron Donalds here.

“First of all, they had us go to a secure facility where we [normally] read classified information, to read an unclassified document.”

“This FBI report is a damning report.”

—Rep. Byron Donalds. Member, Oversight and Accountability Cmte. ...

It’s a really simple situation: There are more than 17 recordings between Ukrainian nationals and Joe and Hunter Biden, regarding bribes of up to $10 million, perhaps more.

The only reason we haven’t heard them is that the FBI is refusing to turn them over.

The heat will without a doubt be turned up.

The recordings will emerge. We will all hear them.

And Joe Biden will be impeached.

That’s my prediction.

Patrick says

And Joe Biden will be impeached.

I wish. But the Republicans did not even pass the censure and fine on Shiff for his blatant lies.

Joe Biden is also the subject of a special counsel for his mishandling of classified information, though Senate Republicans are demanding another one over the Burisma dealings. We had smoking-gun evidence drop regarding Joe Biden’s alleged involvement in a bribery scheme from his Ukraine days, and it got smothered by news of the Trump indictment. Co-founder of Burisma Holdings, Mykola Zlochevsky, is the foreign national who allegedly bribed Joe and Hunter $5 million each in 2015-16. He has a ledger of the payments, phone calls, and recordings of those calls. If a fake Russian collusion allegation could launch a special investigation, actual evidence of corruption involving the now-president of the United States is in order...

We’ll see if that happens. It should, but we’re dealing in a world where a powerful agency within the executive is moving heaven and earth to protect the president and his allies in the Democratic Party.

Patrick says

Mykola Zlochevsky, is the foreign national who allegedly bribed Joe and Hunter $5 million each in 2015-16

It's good to have a specific name to look up.

Careful. This could be put out by Biden strategists as a decoy for looking where the real bribes went. The strategists know that this $10 million is legit and easily explained. Then they can accuse of a witch-hunt.

Yesterday, Trending Politics ran an inflammatory article headlined, “JUST IN: $10M Magically Appeared In Biden’s 2017 Tax Return; House GOP Investigating.”

Deeply buried in the inner pages of a 2017 tax return for one of Joe Biden’s many shell companies, a do-nothing firm called CelticCapri Corp, was a single line item showing the unexplained receipt of $10 million dollars without any sign of where it came from. House Oversight Committee members are extremely curious about it, especially since the timing would line up with some of the “deals” Biden had apparently been cooking as VIP.

So far, that’s all the actual news. Everything else is pure speculation at this point. I’ll keep you posted. But the bigger story is shaping up nicely, with the House Oversight Committee members doing the job the FBI is incapable of doing, or the job that was successfully blocked by the criminal syndicate operating within the FBI’s ranks.

House Oversight Chairman Says There Is Evidence Of $20-$30 MILLION Of Illegal Payments To Bidens

“I can assure you: there is more money that we’re going to be able to identify”

House Oversight Chairman James Comer revealed Thursday that he expects there is evidence of at least $20-$30 million being made in illegal payments by foreign nationals to the Biden family.

Appearing on Fox Business, Comer stated “We have more bank records coming in but we’re gonna exceed $10 million this week but I think we’ll get up to $20-$30 million.”

He further noted that it is becoming clear that the Bidens potentially engaged in bribery, influence peddling, and money laundering.

“This is going to be hard for Biden to explain, this is not going to go away, and I think eventually the mainstream media is going to start asking the real questions,” Comer added.

“They know there’s something wrong here. They know all the allegations have merit, because of where Joe Biden was, because of what we’ve seen on tape before, where Joe Biden bragged about firing that prosecutor,” he added,

“They know that this family created these shell companies. They know this family was money-laundering, they were profiting off Joe Biden’s influence,” Comer asserted, adding “The media knows that – they’re just not covering it.”

“I can assure you: there is more money that we’re going to be able to identify, that was transferred between foreign nationals in other countries and the Biden family,” Comer further emphasized, adding “I think, eventually, the mainstream media will turn on Joe Biden and start asking the real questions: ‘What did your family do to receive all this money?’”

Naive.

@ScottAdamsSays
The public hasn't seen Trump's Mar-a-Lago documents but we've seen this "show" before.

All summer long the propagandists will gaslight you into thinking those documents include important state secrets.

Much later, when it no longer matters to politics, we will learn it was a big nothing.

We've seen this movie.

And it's all a distraction from the overwhelming evidence that Hunter and Pedo Joe were being paid large bribes to betray America, over and over.

Pundit Juan o Savin says that the New Hampshire LLC's funneled bribes broken in parcels through a variety of IP addresses to shell corporations then reassembled in the criminal accounts.

He says they will be able to reassemble the data, and it won't just lead to Ukrainian payoffs to Biden family, but also Romney family and Pelosi family, likely others. So, why do you say, they are so interested in burying Ukraine and its whistle blowers in nuclear ash? The total bribe amounts will be 50 million and above in total.

https://kunstler.com/clusterfuck-nation/call-the-exorcists/

And yet, this shape-shifting fiend turns up again now in the Biden family global bribery matter, of all things. See if you can follow the convoluted tale coming out of Dybbuk Central a.k.a. Ukraine and the FBI. You may already know that in May, 2014, R. Hunter Biden, son of then-vice president Joe Biden, was appointed to the board of the Ukrainian natgas company Burisma, where he was paid $80,000-a-month for his expertise (he had none) in the global gas industry. As it happened, at exactly the same time Veep Joe Biden was appointed as then-President Barack Obama’s “point man” in Ukraine after the 2014 Maidan Coup, engineered by Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland and the CIA, that ousted elected President Viktor Yanukovych.

By and by, Ukraine elected a new American-friendly president, Petro Poroshenko. Burisma was owned by an oligarch name of Mykola Zlochevsky. Apparently, the $80-K-a-month for Hunter Biden was not enough. The friendly American veep, Joe Biden, pressed Burisma’s Zlochevsky to provide $5-million payment each to Hunter and himself for additional Biden family services in Ukraine. ...

And, by the way, subsequent phone call recordings dating from December 19, 2016, are now circulating freely in the US of then-Ukraine President Poroshenko thanking then-Veep Joe Biden for getting the US DOJ off the case. As reported by Stephen McIntyre on Twitter (@ClimateAudit): Biden re-assured Poroshenko that the FBI had “stopped” and there was “no reason [for FBI] to talk to him again.” Biden undertook to “check that [with FBI] and confirm that with you.”

So fast forward to the present moment. Senator Chuck Grassley made a speech on the Senate Floor this week revealing the existence of all these tape recordings that detail $5-million plus $5-million bribes from Mr. Zlochevsky to the Biden family. Podcaster Dan Bongino has played them on his show several times this past week (episodes 2020, 2031, and 2032). Go there and listen for yourself.

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2023/06/19/poll-83-voters-say-fbi-should-make-biden-bribery-file-public/

Eighty-three percent of voters believe the FBI should make public its informant file that alleges President Joe Biden accepted a $5 million bribe from Ukrainian oligarch Mykola Zlochevsky, the founder of Burisma Holdings, a recent Harvard/HarrisX poll found.

The poll asked respondents, “Do you think that the FBI report from an informant alleging that Joe Biden took a $5 million bribe while he was Vice President should be made public or kept secret by the FBI?”

Overall, 83 percent said the FBI should make the file public, while only 17 percent say it should be kept secret.

Among partisans, 74 percent of Democrats, 82 percent of independents, and 92 percent of Republicans said the file should be public.

The FBI is a criminal organization which must be entirely eliminated. All of its criminal "leadership" must be jailed for participating in the suppression of justice when Democrats are involved, and wild exaggeration and selective enforcement against Republicans.

No one is safe when the FBI is openly flaunting the Constitution, the law, and basic human rights. Even most Democrats recognize this now.
