Hunter Biden Signed 2016 Letter To Ukrainian Prosecutor Complaining About Investigation Into Burisma

Published

on

Hunter Biden was a signatory to a 2016 letter from Burisma demanding Ukraine’s top prosecutor back off from making “allegations of criminal activity” in his investigation into the Ukrainian energy company, documents made public by the House Ways and Means Committee on Wednesday revealed.

The letter was addressed to then-General Prosecutor of Ukraine Yuriy Lutsenko, who succeeded Viktor Shokin, the chief prosecutor ousted due to pressure from former Vice President Joe Biden.

“As members of the Board of Directors, we respectfully request that allegations of criminal activity made by you and/or officials in your office cease and that any investigation be conducted consistent with the standards of fairness and the rule of law,” Burisma leadership wrote. “Moreover, it is imperative that allegations of criminal activity made to the media about Burisma and/or Nikolay Zlochevskyi come to an end.”

The letter dated July 9, 2016, was sent just more than three months after Shokin’s removal. In January 2018, Joe Biden bragged about pressuring the Ukrainian government to fire Lutsenko’s predecessor, who had been investigating Burisma. While Hunter Biden raked in excessive compensation serving on the company’s board of directors, then-Vice President Joe Biden was the Obama administration’s point man on Ukraine.

The letter surfaced in a trove of documents related to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) investigation of Hunter Biden that was released by the House Ways and Means Committee Wednesday.

This summer, veteran IRS agents Joseph Ziegler and Gary Shapley publicly blew the whistle on widespread interference in their tax investigation

Leftists Decried Comey For Flagging Hillary’s Emails. Now They Love Tanya Chutkan’s Election Interference

Published

on

With less than three weeks until Election Day, U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan unsealed “evidence” Special Counsel Jack Smith submitted to justify his lawfare attempts against former President Donald Trump. It’s certainly not the October Surprise the left was hoping for; the heavily redacted evidence fails to bolster Smith’s dubious claim that Trump should be denied his First Amendment right to question the outcome and administration of an election.

Whether the unsealed “evidence” corroborated Smith’s lawfare matters not. What matters is whether Smith, Chutkan, and the propaganda press can leverage it to undermine Trump’s chances by influencing public perception ahead of Nov. 5 — something that leftists once considered taboo when they thought their candidate was in the crosshairs.

Chutkan ordered the unsealing Thursday night, acknowledging the potential impact that doing so would have on the upcoming election.

“If the court withheld information that the public otherwise had a right to access solely because of the potential political consequences of releasing it, that withholding could itself constitute — or appear to be — election interference,” Chutkan wrote. “The court will therefore continue to keep political considerations out of its decision-making, rather than incorporating them as Defendant requests.”

The unsealing comes just weeks after Chutkan unsealed Smith’s 165-page brief, which alleges Trump used “false claims of election fraud to disrupt the electoral process” in 2020. Smith argues that Trump’s “refuse[al] to say whether he would accept the election results” of 2020 (which saw unelected leaders usurp the authority of state

Ladies, You Don’t Have To Vote For Kamala Harris

Published

on

Abortion is the only reason Harris has given women to vote for her — and it’s not enough.

Donald Trump, on the other hand, has given women many reasons to vote for him. This week, for instance, while Kamala Harris was offering pithy and empty condolences to the families of women murdered by illegal immigrants, Donald Trump dedicated an hour to addressing female voters’ concerns.

At a Georgia town hall on Wednesday, Trump tackled questions from an exclusively female audience, addressing their worries about everything from the dangers of illegal immigration to the high cost of food and child care to women’s safety. When one woman asked how quickly Trump could remove the threats that arise in sanctuary cities so women and children could live free of fear, for instance, Trump replied, “We are going to end all sanctuary cities immediately.” 

He also offered more details about how he would be women’s “protector.” As he stated in a speech last month in Pennsylvania: “You will no longer be abandoned, lonely, or scared. You will no longer be in danger. … You will no longer have anxiety from all of the problems our country has today.”

Trump’s reassurances should be music to women’s ears as they struggle with the devastating effects of the Biden-Harris administration. 

The Effects of Biden and Harris 

For starters, the Biden-Harris administration rewrote Title IX, allowing men to compete in women’s sports and permitting them to infiltrate women’s-only spaces.

This administration’s open border policies have also led to avoidable

Drones Are Swarming U.S. Military Bases, And Our Incompetent Bureaucracy Won’t Do Anything About It

Published

on

If you had told President Dwight D. Eisenhower that the military-industrial complex he famously warned against would find itself repeatedly foiled by an off-the-shelf product available at the grocery store, he probably would not have believed you.

The Oct. 12 story published in The Wall Street Journal, about how mysterious drones over Langley Air Force Base have baffled the best of America’s military and homeland security apparatus, is clearly not intended to leave you with this impression, yet it does. 

The Journal article was likely intended as yet another entry in the now-extensive subgenre of Pentagon reporting that might be called, “What are we going to do about the UFOs?”

In these stories, which seem to regularly appear several times a year (possibly timed with congressional appropriations), military and intelligence officials either publicly or anonymously complain to their regular Pentagon beat journalists about how they are stumped by the mysterious lights in the sky. In 2022, the Pentagon set up the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) to better collect and analyze reports of these UFO sightings. Before AARO was the wordier Airborne Object Identification and Management Synchronization Group (AOIMSG), set up in 2021. Congress has had multiple UFO hearings, ranging from fairly serious investigations into the likely role of Russian and Chinese drones surveilling U.S. national security sites to “X Files”-style hearings with whistleblowers claiming the U.S. has recovered alien corpses — or, as they phrase it, “biologics.”

The Wall Street Journal piece attempted to emphasize how serious the deployment
