White House scoffs at Hunter Biden probe, accuses Republicans of driving political wedge
Washington Times ^ | 1/03/22 | Joseph Clark

Posted on 01/03/2023 3:47:39 PM PST by Libloather

The White House on Tuesday accused Republicans of stoking political division by pledging to investigate President Biden’s involvement in an array of potentially criminal business dealings with his son Hunter Biden.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Americans aren’t interested in an investigation of the president’s alleged entanglements, and accused the GOP of reneging on their pledge to bring down the cost of living for families.

“House Republicans promised that fighting inflation, during the midterms, was going to be their number one priority,” she said. “That’s what they said was important to them, and that’s what they said they wanted to do. But instead, what they’re doing is wanting to do an investigation into the president and his family.”

“They don’t want to focus on the American people and their families, they want to focus on political division,” she added. “They want to focus on something that the American people do not want to see.”

Hunter Biden’s long trail of suspicious business dealings will get new scrutiny as House Republicans, armed with subpoena power, begin what is expected to be an intense, politically charged investigation of the president’s alleged involvement in his son’s money-making schemes.

From serving on the board of a Ukrainian natural gas company to pursuing deals with Chinese Communist Party-linked energy tycoons and allegedly pocketing more than $3 million from a Russian businesswoman and widow of a former mayor of Moscow, Hunter Biden’s far-flung business deals have raised eyebrows for years about potential influence peddling and possible crimes.

First action: Get Biden’s tax records. Did he claim all his income from ALL SOURCES while VP?

White Hospice scoffs at Hunter Biden probe

The fix is in, and they know it.

The Media and social media will shout down anybody that challenges the Left's Narrative on this.

Not only that, the 24x7 political persecution of Donald Trump from the moment he came the escalator until today is NOT “driving a political wedge.”

The Left’s Core Strategy #1: “Pick the target and polarize it." *via Rules for Radicals

The Left’s Core Strategy #2: Scream accusations of racism (or racist attacks) at anything you don't like or which slows your agenda. *Sexism, "homophobia", etc. are also opportunities.

The Left’s Core Strategy #3: Intensely attack Republicans for doing what you are doing.

The Left’s Core Strategy #4: Attack Republicans with shallow insults in an effort to negatively influence the public's view of their character. Do not attempt to explain the insults. Think drive-by shooter.

The Left’s Core Strategy #5: When all else fails, censor speech and/or deploy violence.

Repeat

Maybe Ashley "Daughter With Benefits" Biden could shed some light on that.

BIDEN, the ULTIMATE WEDGE DRIVER, is in no place to accuse Republicans of this.

Biden is an angry psychopath.

Left is going to say “What’s the matter with the GOP? Don’t they know Americans want unity and harmony? We Democrats would never stoop to partisan banana republic investigations and political witch hunts. Reach across the aisle like Mitch McConnell.”

They should “scoff”...

They know that no matter the evidence, the DOJ will not proceed with any serious investigation...

Even if there is an investigation, it will have zero impact on the serfs who vote...

This includes the MIVs who vote, the LGBTs who vote, the school & church basement machines and facilities (organized by Soros & Bezos) which vote multiple times, the communists (formerly called democrats) who vote early & often, and the grazers...

Because we haven't had a politically charged investigation in a long, long time...

accuses Republicans of driving political wedge

Which is something the LAAP-dog media does every time they run a Trump v. DeSantis story.

Good ole rail splitter joe with all that talk of wedges.
Hunters idea of a wedge issue involves a thong, cocaine and a hooker.

IF the repubs go there, federal law enforcement will go after the accusers and their media will ignore it.
