What is Biden hidin’?
NARA refused to release records, saying admitting disclosure would reveal
(cough) “confidential advice” between then-VP Biden and Obama WH advisers.
Somebody better tell NARA that’s certainly true IF you live in Lower Slobbovia.
However, last time I looked, I observed we reside in
the USA where NARA’s actions are subject to public scrutiny.
BTT
Funny, Trump was deprived of executive privilege and attorney client privilege, and now these criminals are asserting Privilege to hide evidence of treasonous activities by a former vp and his doped up son????
Doesn’t that sound like he was giving/ getting White House advisors “advice” on his to help Hunter?
Can’t see how else he was involving WH officials regarding Hunter.
The only entities I have less respect for than The Biden Crime Family are MSM outfits that refuse to hold The Biden Crime Family to the fire.
This is the first I’ve seen Skaneateles LLC. Is there a known significance to the name?
This is a tacit admission that Joe and others in the Obama administration were involved in Hunter’s business dealing. The only way that communications between Hunter and the office of the President or Vice President would be legitimate is if Hunter was secretly employed by the government. But if that were the case, then he could not legally be employed by or doing business with foreign governments or foreign individuals or entities.
I heard it was well over 5,000 emails.
- Can a VP legally assert executive privilege?
- Can a pResident legally and retroactively assert executive privilege to a time, circumstances and activities when he was not pResident?
- Aren’t lawyers involved in an illegal scheme subject to losing attorney-client privilege and criminal legal exposure all the more?
- Elsewhere it was reported that FARA was asserting this “defense” to keep from cooperating with Congress. FARA is now claiming that it’s subject to WH control, but not Congress’ oversight?
More white supremacy in action.
Isn’t this where a “special master” comes in to view the accuracy of the claims?
Treason.
That’s a fantastic bribery tool. Do the bribery, claim executive privilege over all the records of it.
The future of the Presidential compensation package.
“But Hunter isn’t the President!” “Hunter is a private citizen, not the President!” say all the liberals. A private citizen that gets to live at the White House and gets executive privilege?
Delaware judge orders status report on felony gun charge against Hunter Biden
BY RANDALL CHASE, AP
August 31, 2023
DOVER, Del. (AP) — A federal judge in Delaware ordered prosecutors and defense attorneys on Thursday to provide a status report regarding a felony gun charge against Hunter Biden.
Judge Maryellen Noreika directed lawyers to provide the report by next Wednesday, including any steps they believe the court needs to take.
Attorneys for Biden have argued that a “diversion agreement” sparing him from prosecution on the gun charge is still in place, even though it was inextricably linked to a plea deal on misdemeanor tax offenses that imploded during a court appearance in July.
Noreika dismissed the tax case, and prosecutors have indicated they plan to pursue tax charges against President Joe Biden’s son in another district, perhaps California or Washington, D.C.
The two-part deal on tax and gun charges was supposed to have largely wrapped up a years-long investigation overseen by Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss. The deal fell apart after Noreika raised questions about its terms during a hearing in July.
Among other issues, prosecutors were unable to resolve the judge’s concerns about offering Biden immunity for certain crimes as part of the diversion agreement, instead of in the plea deal.
Typically, a non-prosecution agreement is not presented to a judge and requires no court input. A plea deal, on the other hand, must be presented to a judge, but prosecutors tried to structure Biden’s tax plea deal in a way that left Noreika with no discretion to accept or reject it. The judge expressed concern that attorneys were asking her to simply “rubber stamp” the deal, which she refused to do.
Pressed by Noreika, prosecutor Leo Wise said he could find no precedent for agreeing not to prosecute Biden for crimes that have nothing to do with the gun case or the charges being diverted. Wise also acknowledged that he had never seen a diversion agreement in which the agreement not to prosecute is so broad that it encompasses crimes in a different case. Nor could he offer any precedent for requiring prosecutors to first obtain court approval before prosecuting Biden for certain crimes in the future.
“These agreements are not straightforward and they contain some atypical provisions,” Noreika noted.
Prior to the hearing, Republicans denounced Biden’s plea agreement as a “sweetheart deal.” The deal called for Biden to be sentenced to probation in exchange for pleading guilty to failing to pay taxes on more than $1.5 million in income in both 2017 and 2018. According to prosecutors, Biden’s income during those two years included roughly $4 million in business and consulting fees from a company he formed with the CEO of a Chinese business conglomerate, and from the Ukrainian energy company Burisma.
The diversion agreement, meanwhile, was aimed at sparing Biden from prosecution on the felony crime of being a drug user in possession of a gun in 2018 if he kept out of trouble for two years. Hunter Biden’s history of drug use and financial dealings have trailed the political career of his father.
Following the collapse of the plea deal, Attorney General Merrick Garland named Weiss as special counsel, a status that confers broad powers to investigate and report out his findings.
