So, looks like not golfing this afternoon with storms rolling in.

Pretty tame storm, unlike a week or two ago (just north of me in Rockville got positively slammed with microbursts then.) Surprisingly tame. Weather radar showed some of those mesocyclones trucking through the area at 70 mph, but we didn't even see that much wind. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDBillzFan Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 (edited) Interesting article by NBC on Biden's image being tarnished because of Hunter. Quote “There’s a reason why his numbers are the way they are,” said one Democratic strategist, referring to the president’s low approval rating among Americans. Like other Democrats, the strategist requested anonymity to avoid retribution from fellow partisans. “It’s not just the economy,” the strategist said of possible reasons behind Biden’s low job approval. “It’s not because people are just concerned about inflation. It’s not just because people are concerned about his age. His brand has been damaged by him and those around him.” Nodding to the fear Democrats have of being blamed for weakening their own candidate — or incurring his wrath — the strategist emphatically declined to put his name to his remarks: “On the record? F--- no! Are you crazy?” he said. Edited August 8, 2023 by IDBillzFan 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ann Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 What are they indicting Trump for tomorrow? Comer Releases Third Bank Memo Detailing Payments to the Bidens from Russia, Kazakhstan, and Ukraine </snip> “During Joe Biden’s vice presidency, Hunter Biden sold him as ‘the brand’ to reap millions from oligarchs in Kazakhstan, Russia, and Ukraine. It appears no real services were provided other than access to the Biden network, including Joe Biden himself. And Hunter Biden seems to have delivered. This is made clear by meals at Café Milano where then-Vice President Joe Biden dined with oligarchs from around the world who had sent money to his son,” said Chairman Comer. “It’s clear Joe Biden knew about his son’s business dealings and allowed himself to be ‘the brand’ sold to enrich the Biden family while he was Vice President of the United States. The House Oversight Committee will continue to follow the money trail and obtain witness testimony to determine whether foreign actors targeted the Bidens, President Biden is compromised or corrupt, and our national security is threatened.” Below is a summary of the third bank records memorandum. The full memorandum can be found here. ● Committee Staff is Releasing Payments from Russia, Kazakhstan, and Ukraine that Occurred During Joe Biden’s Vice Presidency: The Committee has now identified over $20 million in payments from foreign sources to the Biden family and their business associates. ● Hunter Biden and Devon Archer Used Rosemont Seneca Entities to Bring in Millions from Oligarchs in Europe and Asia: Using accounts nominally tied to Devon Archer (but using the familiar “Rosemont Seneca” branding), Hunter Biden received incremental payments originating from foreign sources, attempting to hide the source and size of the payments. ● In February 2014, a Russian Oligarch Sent $3.5 Million to a Shell Company Associated with Hunter Biden and Devon Archer: Russian billionaire Yelena Baturina transferred $3.5 million to Rosemont Seneca Thornton, a shell company. Approximately $1 million was transferred to Devon Archer, and the remainder was used to initially fund a new company account, Rosemont Seneca Bohai, which Devon Archer and Hunter Biden used to receive other foreign wires. ● In Spring 2014, a Ukrainian Oligarch Placed Archer and Biden on the Burisma Board of Directors and Agreed to Pay them $1 Million Each per Year: Burisma Holdings’ (Burisma) corporate secretary, Vadym Pozharsky, worked on behalf of the Ukrainian oligarch and owner of Burisma, Mykola Zlochevsky. Hunter Biden was initially hired by Burisma to work as counsel for the company, and Pozharsky and Zlochevsky met with Hunter Biden at a conference in Lake Como in Italy where they decided Hunter Biden would work on the board of directors with Devon Archer. Then-Vice President Joe Biden visited Ukraine soon after their first payments. Payments from Burisma for both Devon Archer and Hunter Biden were wired to Rosemont Seneca Bohai. Payments were transmitted in incremental amounts to Hunter Biden’s different bank accounts. ● In April 2014, a Kazakhstani Oligarch Wired the Exact Price of Biden’s Sportscar to a Bank Account Used by Archer and Biden: In February 2014, Hunter Biden met with Kenes Rakishev at a Washington, D.C. hotel. Rakishev worked closely with the prime minister of Kazakhstan, Karim Massimov. In April, Rakishev, a Kazakhstani oligarch, wired $142,300 to Rosemont Seneca Bohai. The next day, a payment was made from Rosemont Seneca Bohai for a sportscar for Hunter Biden in the amount of $142,300. Archer and Biden then arranged for Burisma executives to visit Kazakhstan in June 2014 to evaluate a three-way deal among Burisma, a Chinese state-owned company, and the government of Kazakhstan. ● Hunter Biden received millions of dollars in payments from Yelena Baturina, Burisma, and Kenes Rakishev. Vice President Biden had dinner with them in the spring of 2014 and 2015 in Washington, D.C. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vice President Biden had dinner with them in the spring of 2014 and 2015 in Washington, D.C. Two things that jump out: 1) Projection is not just their favorite play left in the Establishment's cover-up playbook, it's their only play. 2) This should give some people pause and force them to reconsider exactly how the war in Ukraine came about, and why. More importantly, it should make people who parroted the Neocon/DNC talking points about how discussing the motivations, entanglements, and compromises of our own leadership were irrelevant in regards to the war in Ukraine rethink the sources they trust and the geopolitical strategies they adhere to. Why was talking about Biden's, Obama's, Clinton's, Sullivan's, and Nuland's ties to Ukraine verboten in the months leading to the war? It wasn't because they were "Russian talking points" or "Putin propaganda" - it's because they were true. And the truth cannot be allowed to get in the way of the agenda of triggering a new permawar to turn the revenue streams back on. Sadly, we also know it won't force that reassessment among most of the neocon sect, their spox, and their NPCS because that would mean having to admit they got played. Again. And that's just too painful for most to admit. They'll shift the goal posts, like was done in 2004, and claim that it's irrelevant now because we're "committed". Then they'll fall for it all over again when the next "crisis" emerges (see: Niger). And the whole time they'll blame the "left" or "progressives" for the decline of the Republic - never admitting that they themselves, and their bootlicking of proven liars and frauds, are the biggest cause of the decline.

The fund claims it maintains 22 billion Chinese Yuan (RMB) in various portfolio companies, translating to more than three billion USD. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only that, but now the Democrats in the Senate are "leaking" fanciful stories about how the DOJ under Trump had ordered some unnamed partisan investigator heroic whistleblower veteran FBI agent to not go anywhere near Trump or his allies. He should get a purple heart for his heroism. Exclusive: A veteran FBI agent told Congress that investigations into Giuliani and other Trump allies were suppressed They think we're all stupid. They're absolutely correct. Edited August 10, 2023 by Koko 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
