Nothing will be done to any of these corrupt POS.
We are a banana republic.
I presume 10% poor the big guy.
I’ll check the New York Times to see if this is true.(/S)
It sounds like he taught Jared Kushner everything he knows.
Well, all of that is illegal ... so let’s move on to another subject.
The ignorant bassturds who vote for the far lefties don’t care.
And just who do you think will “rebuild” the Ukes? The Biden Brother Construction Co., of course.

What good does it do to chronicle and document all of these dastardly deeds if nothing will be done about it? Sounds like the entire Biden family—flower, stem, and root—should be extirpated from the face of the earth.
These other countries are probably wondering why they could buy the USA so cheap.
Everyone knows! The Bidens are traitors. NOthing will happen.
Why should anybody abide by the law if there are never any consequences.
We are ruled by thieves and yet nothing ever happens to them. Our Founding Fathers would have burned down their houses and buildings long ago.
Shhh remember that is A OK as long as you vote for the right political party
