Clean? Articulate? Joe Biden sinks deeper still into the miasma of corruption according to report
American Thinker ^ | 08/27/2019 | Monica Showalter

Remember when Joe Biden praised Barack Obama as "clean" and "articulate"?

The same questions could be asked of Joe himself. We already know that he's not articulate, But now the Democratic presidential frontrunner is facing new questions about just how clean he is as a new report comes out from Politico, suggesting that Joe's brother Jim used claims of access to the then-vice president as a selling point for gaining business partners.

Joe Biden’s younger brother told potential business partners that the former vice president would help their firm land business with court systems and would incorporate their health care model into his 2020 presidential campaign, according to new allegations made in a court filing in Tennessee.

The allegations are consistent with others made over the years that relatives of Biden have sought to enrich themselves off of his public service. But they go further, representing the first explicit claims that James Biden offered to have the former vice president use his clout to further private business interests.

This was the same Jim Biden who was recently exposed for shaking down banks for sweetheart loans to finance his nightclub in the 1970s, based on his brother's position in the Senate Finance Committee. The guy hasn't sat idle since. Politico reported this:

“No sooner was freshman lawmaker Joe Biden seated on the Senate Banking Committee,” Politico reported, “than James became the beneficiary of business loans that were described … as unusually generous because of the relatively large amount of money he was able to borrow with little or no collateral and a lack of relevant prior experience.”

Once again I thank the voters of Delaware for 36 years of enabling this buffoon and his corrupt family.

Proving once again the Founding Fathers were right in not having the direct election of senators in the Constitution.

The media seems to be rallying behind Warren giving her the same sort of non critical, praise coverage they gave to Obama. She is viewed as the best hope by the globalist left to defeat Trump. Soon look for a devastating negative article to appear about Biden in the New York Times. They want him out and the way cleared.

One can imagine the outrage if Trump behaved in this manner:

In his 2014 book on the Secret Service, long-time investigative reporter Ronald Kessler wrote that female Secret Service agents were upset by Biden’s habit of swimming naked in the swimming pool in the vice president’s house in Washington, D.C., and at his home outside of Wilmington, Del., while they had to stand watch.
