This is so rich...pardon the pun.
Culture of corruption.
Pretty much the same as Patrick Daley.
The new generation of Crony Capitalist-Fascist.
Evil is as evil does..and the apple never falls far from the tree.
Nor does pubic-to-scalp hair plugs.
Funny how that happens shortly after Biden visits Ukraine, eh??
How CONveeeeenient. (Thanks for posting. Very interesting.)
Has Hunter had brain surgery like his papa?
There were also a lot of mutterings a few months ago, based on leaked State Dept. conversations, that the US was behind the Kiev coup that ousted the pro-Russian former leader. Vice President Biden was the point man on the operation. I guess this is his reward.

Always follow the money.
Thats a Grinchy-look if Ive ever seen one. Just paint him Green.
My memory is that he made $1.6 million a year as a lobbyist.
When his dad was picked for VP they decided it wasn’t seemly so he resigned as lobbyist and was hired as a rookie fund broker for $1.2 million a year.
Now, as his dad’s government is making decisions to defend Ukraine, he takes a position on the board of a Ukrainian gas company.
No one writes a check directly to Joe Biden, and he can claim to have no money. They check goes to his son.
Thats the way Harry Reid does it. If you want to talk to him, you write a check for $250k to one or both of his sons.
I remember some of the shenanigans involving the Clintons. Somehow after a lifetime of public service they managed to retire from office with several hundred million in the bank.
