Joe Biden’s Donors Got Special Treatment After Setting Up Drug-Addicted Son Hunter with Cushy Jobs and Lucrative Sweetheart Deals
G.P. ^ | October 19, 2020 | Christina Laila

Hunter Biden profited from his father’s political connections long before he struck questionable deals in countries where Joe Biden was undertaking diplomatic missions as vice president. In fact, virtually all the jobs listed on his resume going back to his first position out of college, which paid a six-figure salary, came courtesy of the former six-term senator’s donors, lobbyists and allies, a RealClearInvestigations examination has found.

One document reviewed by RCI reveals that a Biden associate admitted “finding employment” for Hunter Biden specifically as a special favor to his father, then a Senate leader running for president. He secured a $1.2 million gig on Wall Street for his young son, even though it was understood he had no experience in high finance. Many of his generous patrons, in turn, ended up with legislation and policies favorable to their businesses or investments, an RCI review of lobbying records and legislative actions taken by the elder Biden confirms.

I’ve said before by the time they find all the palms that have Been greased, half of Congress will be under investigation.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the Prodigal Son’s laptop contains more than a few pics of Creepy Joe in rather compromising circumstances with children.

This problem is much bigger than the Bidens.

ALL of the children of America’s Nomenklatura are trading on influence.

You are certainly right about that. It’s only common sense that anytime you (or anyone) is moving money around in THOSE amounts... there will be a very long trail of equally culpable, equally eager and willing beneficiaries. There is NOT just one or two guys at the end destination, who are collecting all of it.

Operations of that kind and on THAT scale, permit of ALL players! Certainly, NOTHING so insignificant as party affiliation will matter at all!

And all along Russia, Russia, Russia was there. Just pointed at the wrong group!

Well, one nice thing you can about Creepy Uncle Joe - he tries to give good value for the money...

I see this as a form of "civil service reform" that we need.

Civil Servants, SES types, government unions, and children and spouses of the Powerful all benefit improperly from a multi-Trillion dollar cash cow.

That's the swamp.

Family members should be prohibited from cashing in on a relatives elected office, at any level. Our government is awash in this, as are most other governments.

“... half of Congress will be under investigation.”

...all but two or three in Congress will be under investigation.
Fixed it!

And by extension everyone who participates in the District of Columbia metro economy.

Which is why you will NEVER get a D.C. jury to vote to convict any of these people.

Me too, and probably more than half. 535 elected officials, and I doubt if you would find more than 25 who are not corrupt to the bone.

This is why Trump is having such a har time stopping corruption, or “draining the swamp”, I don’t think even he realized just how deep the corruption ran when he started.

It’s going to take a two term Republican President to finish what Trump started in his second term.l

...................................................

When democrats complain that Trump has members of his immediate family working for him in the White House, they fail to mention that they are unpaid. As is Trump himself.

It is one level of corruption for an influential person to use contacts to get a son/daughter a well-paying job. It is another level when “Pop” gets 50% as kickback.

______________________________

I bet you’re right, and one who is not already up to his eyebrows in the same corruption as Biden and co. A little looking around and I bet a dozen republicans can be easily found who are no better than biden, hillary, pelosi, schumer, reid, feinstein...the list goes on all night... Romney, for example...anyone named bush...

don’t get me started.
