The political class will do nothing about this, because they are ALL dirty in some way.

Getting a ten percent cut of the grift would seem to qualify as “knew about”.

He did nothing other than get loan repayments for loans that did not exist.

The mounting scandal of the Teapot Dome oil field in the early 1920’s, under then President Warren G. Harding, was one of the most egregious examples of graft un US history up to then. When Harding exercised the unusual good strategy of dying before the full scope of the scandal became known, Calvin Coolidge ascended to the presidency and swore to prosecute the remaining participants as criminals to the fullest extent of the law.

The Department of Justice under Harry M. Daugherty was found to have been complicit in covering up the legal machinations, and though the mills of justice moved slowly, they moved with great power, and the criminal aspects were not resolved until 1931, when the power and impact of the Republican administrations that had preceded under Coolidge and later Herbert Hoover, had been largely drained away.

Biden is a crook and a known plagiarist too, but Democrats love crooks and plagiarists as long as they are Democrats. Its all about “The Team” dontcha know.

The question is whether Joe Biden knew about the influence peddling of his brothers and his son.

Nobody in that family could be doing influence peddling without the help of Joey he’s the key player.

Yellow MSM ignore the facts to protect the guilty.
