A new Senate report released Wednesday concludes that former Vice President Joe Biden allowed Hunter Biden and other members of his family to enrich themselves through links with foreign companies and governments while he was in office.

The report notes that the Obama administration was aware of, but did nothing about the conflict of interest that was created when Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, was appointed to the board of Burisma, a corrupt Ukrainian fossil fuel company.

If a report comes out of the Senate and the Ministry of Propaganda ignores it, does it have any impact?

The details of the Bidens’ dirty deals and profiteering from Joe’s political position won’t matter a bit to democrats or their lap-dog media.

Their reaction, if any, will be to curse and spew hate against those who investigated, documented and released the information.

The character and honesty of their candidates is not an important consideration for most democrats.
What matters is the democrat party and the leftist agenda.

Most would vote for Joe Stalin, Pol Pot or Che Guevara if they could come back and run as democrats.

I’m not expecting wide spread media reporting or outrage.

But just in time for Trump and the debate.

And what does this do? Absolutely nothing. It was common knowledge anyway.

imagine what Biden and the family (including Obamas & Clintons) could skim from the Green New Deal scam if he became President!

23 Sept: Yahoo: AFP: China eyes climate leadership with 2060 carbon neutral goal
PIC: Cities like Shanghai are frequently shrouded in smog from China’s pollution-belching factories
Speaking to the UN General Assembly, Xi renewed his support for the Paris climate accord and called for a green focus as the world recovers from the Covid-19 crisis...
But China’s leader did not immediately put meat on the bones of his carbon-slashing commitment.

China currently has ***135 gigawatts of coal-power capacity either permitted or under construction, according to Global Energy Monitor, a San Francisco-based environmental group.
That equates to about half the total coal-power capacity in the US...

Joeri Rogelj, a climate expert at ***Imperial College London’s Grantham Institute, called Xi’s pledge “unexpected and eye-opening.”...

Several experts said it was still a significant step to bring new life to the Paris accords.
“This announcement will send positive shockwaves through diplomatic circles and should prompt greater climate ambition from other major emitters,” said Helen Mountford, vice president for climate and economics at the World Resources Institute in Washington...

Jean-Pascal van Ypersele, a Belgian climate scientist and former vice chair of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, a UN expert panel, called Xi’s commitment “very important.”
But he questioned whether China would follow its own guidelines as it pursues a global infrastructure-building binge — for example, if it will still back coal plants in Africa...

The future of the Paris accord will be partly determined on November 3 as Trump runs for re-election against Joe Biden, who has pledged to return the United States to the agreement and move toward carbon neutrality by 2050.

***not 135 gigawatts, but 255 gigawatts:

25 June: Economic Times India: Reuters: China has 250 GW of coal-fired power under development: study
Beijing has vowed to replace coal with cleaner energy forms, but new coal project approvals have accelerated this year, according to the study by Global Energy Monitor (GEM) and the Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air (CREA).
SHANGHAI: China has nearly 250 gigawatts (GW) of coal-fired power now under development, more than the entire coal power capacity of the United States, a new study said on Thursday, casting doubt on the country’s commitments to cutting fossil fuel use...

11 Sept: China Dialogue: What are the prospects of an EU–China climate deal?
Ahead of the EU–China leaders’ call on 14 September, the EU is looking to China for strong climate targets
by Byford Tsang, Jennifer Tollmann
Although trade will be the focus of the EU–China leaders’ call on 14 September, it would be a mistake to think climate is off the summit’s agenda or unimportant in the broader relationship...

***Unspoken, but not forgotten in the European debate is growing concern over China’s reawakening coal habit. If China completes all the coal power plants it is currently building and plans to build, the lifetime emissions from these projects would be equal to nearly seven times the EU’s annual emissions...

What I want to know is how much of that money found its way back to Joe. Hunter couldn’t have snorted/injected/smoked that much of anything. Where’s the money?

As long as the envelope was delivered to the Godfather with the cash in it, all is good.

When operating a criminal conspiracy, you always have to kick up the payment to the bosses for their okey dokey.

Hunter, he was a good earner.

Just chance the names, and you have a scene right out of “Goodfellows”. Ray Liotta is Hunter. Obama is Pauly. Joe is Peschi.

Obama got the cash to the Iranians ... but it wasn’t in an envelope.
