Just a few short years ago Biden's son Hunter got a board position at the Ukrainian gas company Burisma Holdings for quite the yearly salary and despite having no relevant experience. Not long after Ukraine’s then-Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin began investigating Burisma at which point Biden threatened to withhold $1 billion in aid to Ukraine unless they fired Shokin.

Nothing illegal there, eh? Just extortion is all.
And it looks like Bumbling Biden is up to his old tricks. Saudi Arabia says that Bumblin' Joe is trying to get them to delay a cut in oil productions for just a month. A month you say? Hmmm....what's happening in a month? Yup, the midterms.

The Saudi's gave him the old middle finger and Bumblin' Joe is none too happy.
President Joe Biden will examine all aspects of US ties with Saudi Arabia, including arms sales, as administration officials begin quiet discussions with members of Congress and congressional aides about how the US could impose consequences on the kingdom following the kingdom’s decision to partner with Russia in cutting oil production.So, threatening an ally with cutting off military aid unless they help him politically sure sounds like another Quid pro quo situation. The lefties lost their collective minds when it was alleged Trump withheld military aid over another Quid pro quo“There is a range of interests and values that are implicated in our relationship with that country,” Biden’s national security adviser Jake Sullivan told reporters Wednesday. “The President will examine all of that. But one question he’s going to ask is: Is the nature of the relationship serving the interest and values of the United States and what changes would make it better serve the interests and values?”
It’s the latest indication from the administration that changes to the US-Saudi relationship could be coming after the Saudi-led OPEC+ oil cartel announced last week it would cut output by 2 million barrels per day.

Gee I remember when this used to be an impeachable offense, but since Biden is a Dem its fine, heck no one will report on it
Imagine a world where such led to the attempted impeachment of a previous President....
brandon is screwing up basic relatinships. He attacks a person, nation then begs for their help. He really needs an autograph copy of “The Art of the Deal”. Honestly.
This is what happens when Hunter isn’t sent in first to prep the ground by passing around hookers and blow.

You can only impeach Republican Presidents.
James Biden’s lobbying pitch.
Dear Mr. Khaled Sultan Al Rabban:
Thank you for the communication with my friend and associate Dr. Amer Rustom regarding the recent visit of His Excellency Sheikh Abdullah Bin Mohammed Al Thani to the United States and his vision to promote the business interests of the nation of Qatar.
I would be honored to assist in effectuating the vision of His Excellency but would be remiss in not pointing out the fractured nature of our current administration. My family could provide a wealth of introductions and business opportunities at the highest levels that I believe would be worthy of the interest of His Excellency.
We are not, however, lobbyists and do not operate in that arena. Our relationships are deep and wide and have lasted through many years and many administrations. We are not particularly close to this administration and have a different vision.
This administration is beleaguered by major issues that are not soon to be resolved. In the meantime, we continue to forge ahead in forward thinking endeavors that create real value both here in the United States and abroad.
Our primary interest is and always has been to advance the interests of the United States through productive collaborations with partners home and abroad.
If this is in keeping with the vision of His Excellency, on behalf of the Biden family, I welcome your interest here. I recommend Dr. Rustom arrange a conference call to discuss the way moving forward and perhaps a face to face meeting in New York or Qatar with you and His Excellency. Please contact Dr. Rustom at [redacted phone number] at your earliest convenience.
Best regards,
James B. Biden, Sr.
Khaled Sultan Al Rabban is Director of the Office of the CEO of Qatar Investment Authority, a sovereign wealth fund in the Gulf nation.
Sheikh Abdullah Bin Mohammed Al Thani is a member of the ruling family of Qatar.
The summer of 2017 was a tense time in U.S.-Qatari relations, as Saudi Arabia and Qatar were in a diplomatic crisis, while the Trump administration worked on a number of deals with the Saudi Kingdom. In June of 2017, the Trump administration offered to mediate talks between the two Gulf nations, but the gesture was turned down. In the months to follow, hostilities escalated, with Saudi Arabia attempting to economically isolate Qatar, and even geographically isolate Qatar with a proposed plan to build a canal along its border.
Should the Republicans take a majority in the upcoming midterm elections, multiple House investigations of Hunter Biden and the Biden family businesses have been promised amid mounting evidence pointing to corruption.

“This window into the state of mind of Biden family corruption is why the next Congress must not stop until it gets at the truth,” Rep. Issa told Breitbart News. “Of all the lies told to advance the Bidens’ selling of access, the worst may have been ‘we are not lobbyists’.”
Issa has submitted document preservation notices in March to twelve individuals from the intelligence community, White House, Facebook, and Twitter, in preparation for investigating election interference with regard to the suppression of the New York Post’s “Laptop From Hell” series in October 2020.
House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) has already spoken with top House Republicans about coordinating investigations of Hunter and the Biden family’s business across committees, should the GOP take the House, according to a report in the Washington Post.

In negotiations, when you lack a strong position, threatening your trading partner isn’t going to close the deal.
Good on SA to flip him the bird and tell the whole world what a skunk he is.
“The President will examine all of that. But one question he’s going to ask is: Is the nature of the relationship serving the interest and values of the Democrat Party and what changes would make it better serve the interests and values?”
I guess laws are only meant to persecute and prosecute republicans nowadays, huh?
Only if we can get a Senate that would vote to remove. That would be a pretty tall order with the likes of McConell and his republican democrat assistants around.
