If black people haven’t figured out they’re being duped by now it’s probably not going to happen.

Hispanics are smarter and have the numbers

EDITED Rumors circulated in April that Hunter Biden has been hiding out at the White House to avoid being served with court papers by the mother of Joe Biden’s seventh grandchild.

In his memoir “Beautiful Things,” Hunter detailed his years-long battle with cocaine addiction, which he claims “intensified” after his brother Beau’s death from a brain tumor in 2015.

Beau’s death is dusted off periodically....the necromancer Bidens celebrate it usually when an election looms or Biden has a political problem........to milk the “sympathy vote.”

Unasked, and uncalled for, the Bidens recently celebrated the 50th anniversary of his first wife’s death......the first time Biden milked her death as president.

Many photos, text messages and other communications revealing his cocaine abuse ended up on the first son’s now infamous laptop, including recently surfaced images of Hunter smoking crack behind the wheel of his father’s prized vintage Corvette (usually used to store classified govt documents) in a residential Arlington, Va., neighborhood in the summer of 2018.

Last month, the first son reached a sweetheart probation-only plea deal with the deaf-dumb-and blind Biden Justice Department for (a) invented tax misdemeanors (not his actual massive tax dodging), and, (b) entered into a pretrial diversion agreement for lying on a federal gun-purchase form about his drug use.

If a judge approves of the cockamamie deal, and have sentenced impoverished black perps to jail for less, Hunter Biden will avoid jailtime, likely serve two years probation, and be barred from owning a firearm again.

He also must remain drug free.......or the plea deal is a no-go.......which is why the Bidens are frantic about cocaine found in the WH.

GOP senator Tom Cotton demands to know if cocaine found at WH
was discovered in area ‘confidential information is exchanged’
By Victor Nava, ny post.com, July 5, 2023

A top Republican senator has demanded more information from the head of the Secret Service after a bag of cocaine was discovered Sunday in the West Wing of the White House.

In a Wednesday letter to Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle, Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) asked that the protective agency confirm the precise location where the dime-size bag of white powder was found by a uniformed agent during a routine patrol.

“I urge you to release that information quickly, as the American people deserve to know whether illicit drugs were found in an area where confidential information is exchanged,” Cotton wrote.

“If the White House complex is not secure, Congress needs to know the details, as well as your plan to correct any security flaws,” the senator added.

Aside from the location where the cocaine was found, Cotton demanded that Cheatle provide his office with a complete list of individuals with “access to the White House complex without passing through any security screening” as well as a list of individuals “subject to lesser security screening requirements than the most complete screening required of individuals accessing the West Wing.”

Lawmakers asked that the protective agency confirm the precise location where the dime-size bag of white powder was found by a uniformed agent during a routine patrol.

The senator also asked how many White House visitors are screened by the Secret Service’s K-9s each year, how often the agency encountered illegal drugs at the White House within the past five years — and where the drugs were discovered.

”Illegally possessing cocaine is a crime under federal law. If the Secret Service discovers the identity of the individual who brought illicit cocaine into the White House complex, will they make an arrest under this provision?” Cotton also asked, requesting answers to his queries by July 14.

The Republican-led House Oversight Committee has also indicated it plans to investigate the White House drug find.

The panel is expected to request a briefing from the Secret Service on the matter, according to ABC News.

That is a good observation, and a fascinating plot twist.

EXCERPT.......Biden’s 1994 crime law

The Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act, now known as the 1994 crime law, was the result of years of work by Biden, who oversaw the Senate Judiciary Committee at the time, with other Democrats.

It was an attempt to address a big issue in black America at the time: Crime, particularly violent crime, had been rising for decades, starting in the 1960s but continuing, on and off, through the 1990s (in part due to the crack cocaine epidemic).

Politically, the legislation was also a chance for Democrats — including then recently elected president, Bill Clinton — to wrestle the issue of crime away from Republicans. Polling suggested Americans were very concerned about high crime back then.

Biden reveled in the politics of the 1994 law, bragging after it passed that “the liberal wing of the Democratic Party” was now for “60 new death penalties,” “70 enhanced penalties,” “100,000 cops,” and “125,000 new state prison cells.”

The law imposed tougher black prison sentences at the federal level and encouraged states to do the same. It provided funds for states to build more prisons, aimed to fund 100,000 more cops, and backed grant programs that encouraged police officers to carry out more drug-related black arrests — an escalation of the war on drugs.

At the same time, the law included several measures that are commonplace among Democrats today.
<><>The Violence Against Women Act provided more resources to crack down on domestic violence and rape.
<><>A provision helped fund background checks for guns.
<><>The law encouraged states to back drug courts, which attempt to divert drug offenders from prison into treatment, and,
<><> also helped fund some addiction treatment.

All of this was an old-school attempt to attract votes from lawmakers who otherwise might be skeptical, and it succeeded at winning over some ultra-liberal Democrats.

Bernie Sanders, for one, criticized an earlier version of the bill, written in 1991 but never passed, for supporting mass incarceration, quipping, “What do we have to do, put half the country behind bars?” But he voted for the 1994 law, explaining at the time, “I have a number of serious problems with the crime bill, but one part of it that I vigorously support is the Violence Against Women Act.”

Biden also opposed some parts of the law, even while he helped write it. In 1994, he reportedly called a three-strikes provision — that escalated prison sentences up to life for some repeat offenses — “wacko” and illustrative of Congress’s “tough on crime” attitude.

But Biden and other Democratic authors of the law were clear about their intentions: supporting a more punitive criminal justice system to rebuke criticisms that they were “soft on crime.”

On the website for his 2008 presidential campaign, Biden referred to the 1994 crime law as the “Biden Crime Law” and bragged that it encouraged states to effectively increase prison sentences by paying them to build more prisons.

Asked about Biden’s support for the law, the Biden campaign pointed to provisions like the Violence Against Women Act, the 10-year assault weapons ban, firearm background check funding, money for police, support for addiction treatment, and a “safety valve” that let a limited number of low-level first-time drug offenders avoid mandatory minimum sentences.

They also cited some of Biden’s past criticisms of punitive sentences, including the three-strikes measure..........

In a 2016 interview with CNBC, Biden said that there were parts of the law he’d change, but argued that “by and large what it really did, it restored American cities.”

Biden also took major credit for the law: “As a matter of fact, I drafted the bill, if you remember.”
