Burisma, Hunter, Bribery, Crack cocaine, etc

your original statement that no photos on the internet somehow proves the HD is legit

*sigh*

I give up. You're incapable of intellectual honesty. I stand by everything I said.

Biden handled his son having a drug problem at the debate very well. Look at these judgemental pieces of shit of the right judging one of many many millions who use drugs. If fucking some right wing married conservative businessman was caught doing rails of coke off of some hooker's ass cheeks these same hypocritical pieces of trash would be calling him a hero.

These people are fundamentally garbage.

What they fundamentally believe is that there are 2 different sets of rules and standards in this country. One set for them: freedom, the Constitution, and flag-waving patriotic compassion, and one for everyone else: hate, indifference, comply or die, and a jackboot on the neck of 'the others.'
That's Trumpism in a nutshell.

Okay buddy. The photos not existing on the internet somehow raises the odds that the Hunter dropped his laptop off at some random repair shop and never went back to get it.

It's obvious, to me anyways, that daddies office is the reason he was making the obscene amounts of money he was. I am sure you understand the seriousness of Joe taking bribes? I know this country is down the shitter at this point. But we really should weed out those we know to be corrupt.

You want to know why Hunter was hired.

from business insider

• His hiring by Burisma was seen as an attempt by the company to bolster its image and the perception it had strong ties to the US as the world vilified Russia for its annexation of Crimea, the Times reported.

While it might appear unsavory to hire Hunter because he’s the son the VP it’s not illegal. Nor did any ethics watchdog find anything illegal done by either of them. In fact Joe Biden continued to push for cleaning up corruption in the Ukraine.

No bribes were taken and Hunters $50K/month was his salary.

It’s not even “a lot” for a board member.
From investopedia

Corporate board members can earn six, seven, or even eight figures per year, depending on their compensation arrangement

There is nothing here but actual “fake news”.

Can someone tell me what these “photos“ show that would need to be “investigated”.

They don't show anything that I'm aware of. HB simply stated that if these guys have original photos somehow that means it is more likely that they actually have Hunter's hard drive.

I've had drug issues in my past. Shit happens.

I'm more concerned with the fact that Joe was using his political office to enrich his family.

But not with the fact that Trump is currently using his political office to enrich himself and his family.

You remind me of an unfortunate conversation I had with a co-worker around the time my state was legalizing marijuana. She was adamantly opposed to legalization and made sure everyone in the office knew about it. So I took the bait, asked her why, and she said it was because weed made her adult son lazy. So I responded by asking her if she had reported her son to the police for his criminal drug behavior. Shouldn't he be in jail if he's breaking the law? The law that she supports? She was aghast and said of course she had done no such thing. And I replied by asking her why she wanted other people's sons to go to jail for weed but not her own. We never spoke again. True story.

Next, the Kushner-owned NY Observer is going to break an exclusive. Look at the Post etc the same way as the Toronto Star, the Sun etc. Yeah... kinda "meh" not as 50 piles of crap as the National Enquirer but still crap. I'd still hard eye roll if they claimed Bezos was an alien bent to destroy mankind. Much as I may believe that's actually true.

EDIT: forgot to insert the word sarcasm

Except I'm for the legalization of marijuana. I'm also for making changes that would slow or stop global warming. I believe in a path to citizenship for Mexicans. I'm for gun control. Not taking guns but definitely no need for people to have military style weapons. Im definitely not the typical right wing person. I'm more in the middle. I'm just going to go republican this go round.

 

[Jhhnn]

It's intended to distract us from the insane shit show of Trump staging potential superspreader events all over the country, basking in the maskless adulation of his most foolish supporters packed together like sardines. It's horrifying to have a President act that way. How many rallies will he get in before the election? 20? 30? What's the over/under on that?

Then you are voting to keep marijuana illegal, accelerating global warming, deportation and child separation of immigrants, & unfettered access to military style weapons because reasons?

Trump has better morals than Biden and isn't corrupt.

 

[BUTCH1]

I mean, at this point, many conservatives are so far gone it won't matter. They'll just make up whatever truth they want and believe it forever.

The stank of desperation is getting very ugly, I listen to Rush L in small spurts on the way home, he was railing on and on
about the "evil" tech Co's that stopped this shit-show before it got rolling, I knew when I got hom and checked it would be
a laugher and it is. LOL, someone copied the hard drive and just happened to "give" Rudy a copy, I hope the Bidens sue the ever loving shit of of that pile of crap.

People most profoundly affected by right wing propaganda are the least likely to examine the idea that they might have been. If they haven't figured out that Trump is dangerously deranged & a threat to Democracy, they probably never will.

There is one party basically running on that platform and the other party that doesn't give a shit about any of those things, but for some reason, you're voting for the not giving a shit party. What's wrong with you?

Just look at the thread title. It's about Biden's son leveraging the family name to make money! Oh wait, nm Ivanka and Jared actually being hired at the highest levels of government by Trump! Where Jared had so many financial conflicts of interest getting him a security clearance required special overrides. Nothing to see here!

It's about Biden's son doing hard drugs! Oh wait, it's not, people having drug problems is understandable.

The guy is a wackadoo.

Trashbag has never voted against the Republican Party, and never will vote against the Republican Party, no matter how many times he lies about it here.

To believe otherwise would make you a fool.

Then your vote goes against all those policies you support...?
Even if you don't like Biden, at least he supports some if not all those policies you just listed. And yet you'll vote for the guy who is very obviously corrupt (his sons have admitted as much on live TV) and who's party is against all those policies...makes no sense to me, but it's your right to vote for whoever you want.

 

[sportage]

When Joe Biden standing on 5th avenue shoots someone in cold blood, I still won’t care. Keep the perspective. We’re talking Donald Trump here, we’re doing Donald Trump comparisons here. So, maybe Joe Biden told a little fib and maybe Hunter Biden made a little money, big F-ing deal.... What is the big deal is that Donald Trump paid $750 in taxes and still owes foreign entities over 400 millions yet Trump will not tell who those foreign entities are. And if they say Trump owes 400 million we know it’s more like 800 million. And Donald Trump killed over 200,000 Americans with incompetence and out right lying, while the deaths kept coming. So with all of THIS from Donald Trump, people are supposed to be all in a tizzy over faked reporting over Joe and Hunter Biden? Get outta here. Go sell your pencils. Get a real job. Get your head out of Sean Hannity’s ass. Please.....

 

[interchange]

Credible news agencies corroborate with multiple sources unless the source is very high level and reporting on something they have direct knowledge of.

This story is the exact opposite of that. There should be no value in speculating that it may be true. It doesn't require an ounce of discrediting.

The only thing worth discussing is the condemnation of those who publish it knowing the info isn't worth the paper it's printed on purely as political weaponry.

 

[CZroe]

Research will probably show that from a behavioral standpoint, the type of people who are opposed to Trump are not sitting their searching or viewing content in a way that would cause algorithms to steer that in their direction.
Also, the way anti-trump content is written generally has a different flow due being written with a different audience in mind.
You general find more traditional stories where it is a balance of content and emotional appeal.
Pro Trump stuff is basically shotgun buzzword and a lot of techniques driven by how the eye scans the article.
I could literally write an article about trump that basically was 85% a description of Ostrich mating ritual and Trumptards would skim over it to look for their comfort phrases

Her assertion was that keeping those three words in the public consciousness would convince undecided voters that there was something there when, by that logic, it could go either way:
There is something there regarding Biden's alleged corruption (influence-peddling).
...or...
There is something there regarding Trump's impeachable offense (investigating political opponents).

My point was that the three words were just as much related to reviving Trump's Ukraine scandal as Biden's.

FWIW, I have serious doubts about all of this... even if it could be confirmed that the laptop contains his actual emails. If the Russians had Hunter's actual emails (through hacking) and it was a big nothing-burger they very well might pepper in some fake stuff and load it all onto an abandoned Macbook to sanitize it for public release like this ("Look, ma! No hacking!"). With his actual emails that would be extremely easy for them to do and, of course, they could count on these guys to take the bait. I can just imagine them giggling with glee at the reaction it's getting.
