Members of the Elite Think They're Untouchable
PJ Media ^ | 13 Dec 2023 | Chris Queen

Posted on 12/14/2023 1:53:02 PM PST by Rummyfan

One of the biggest news stories so far this week is that the House of Representatives has subpoenaed Hunter Biden for a deposition. The House wants Hunter to talk to members behind closed doors about his father's involvement in his business dealings.

Instead, Hunter skipped the deposition and called a whiny, self-indulgent press conference in which he repeated the Democrat talking points that Joe Biden is clean as a whistle and never got involved in his business dealings.

"They belittled my recovery, and they have tried to dehumanize me, all to embarrass my father, who has devoted his entire life to public service," he said. How noble. He's a regular Dr. Phil success story. Of course, "they" refers to the "unrelenting Trump attack team." Seriously.

He even claimed that the Republicans don't want to hear the truth because the hearings would take place in private. The truth, of course, is that Hunter wanted the opportunity to grandstand on camera.

Hunter Biden must believe he's going to get away with it. He's the president's son, for crying out loud, so why wouldn't he get away with making a mockery of Congress and the rule of law?

We used to always hear that the tension in society was between the "haves" and the "have-nots." Now we know that the two sides are different: the elite versus the rest of us.

Yeah. They don’t THINK they are untouchable. They clearly ARE untouchable.

Elites are untouchable.

Until they aren’t.

Yet the DOJ hounds Trump’s kids with impunity.

There is nothing that makes me think they are not.

For instance, the below tweet is from Steve Baker with The Blaze:

A distinction without a difference.

Hunter should be more afraid of the deep state than congress or even jail time. If he becomes a loose thread that could cause them serious damage, there’s a good chance he will be Arkancided/Epsteined.

Members of the Elite Think They’re Untouchable

At the end of the day it all comes down to that.

At the end of the day, the white liberals that are gushing over all the illegals think they’ll still be standing at the end of the day.

Why doesn’t anyone ask the folks that USED to be on the city council in Hamtramck, Michigan. They welcomed them with open arms and now the city council is all muslim. So what happened? The call to prayer played 5 times a day. I remember reading an article about that “historic moment”. The last remaining city councilwoman said that she was shocked when she heard one of the Muslim’s say that they were going to run all the non-Muslims out of the city. Shocked I tell ya.

Effin’ idiots.

The only place I could never get a handle on was Memphis and Cohen. How in the hell does he maintain that seat given its 2/3 black. Everything else in Memphis is black, but that. Odd.

The more deranged, stupid, and disgusting the democrat the more they love him. Ted Kennedy. Barney Frank. Bill Clinton. Chomo Biden.

No mention of the head of the crime family, only the bagman.

Elites are clearly untouchable. No one has any reason to believe otherwise.

One day, he’s gonna pick up a crack pipe and suck on it and never realize that it (crack) had been laced with Fentanyl. It’s the one equalization factor among drug users that status (elite or not) cannot avoid.

Nobody is untouchable.

If worse comes to worst, our side has more guns.

And nobody is completely bulletproof.
