The Democrats' 'No Evidence' Claim About Joe Biden's Corruption Now Requires Suspension of Disbelief

posted by Mike Miller at RedStateVIP 

The first tried in vain to sell Joe Biden's absurd mutually exclusive claims that, one, he has never discussed with his crackhead son the latter's overseas business ventures, and, two, that the crackhead son never did anything illegal or wrong. Obviously, daddy couldn't possibly know his boy didn't do anything wrong if he hadn't discussed with his boy what he'd done.

Question for my Democrat friends: How'd that all turn out? Hasn't aged well at all, has it?

Karine Jean-Pierre, arguably the most woefully inept White House press secretary in history, finally abandoned her silly efforts to sell Biden's mutually exclusive claims, shifting her shtick in late July to simply declaring Joe was never in business with Hunter: 

So, I've been I've been asked this question a million times. The answer is not going to change. The answer remains the same. The president was never in business with his son. I just don't have anything else to add.

Ah, KJP, but the answer did change — with your goal-post-moving statement that your boss was never in business with his wayward son, as opposed to your previous ad-nauseam claim that he had zero knowledge of Hunter's likely illegal shenanigans. 

As the evidence has continued to mount, the Democrats have stubbornly clung to the "no evidence" argument that Joe himself, despite the activities of other members of the Biden family, wasn't tied to the Biden Family Business. 

Two words: Frank Biden. 

As we reported on Friday, Frank Biden, Joe's youngest brother, repeatedly referred to Joe as "the big guy" — which confirmed that Joe was indeed the big guy, as referenced by two of Hunter Biden's former business partners who later said they received an email that included the line, "10 held by H for the big guy?" — shorthand for 10% held by Hunter Biden for Joe Biden.

It Gets Worse — or Better, Depending on One's Point of View

As we reported on Tuesday, Hunter Biden received more than $250,000 from Beijing — via wire transfers in mid-2019, which were addressed to Joe Biden's home address in Delaware. Oops.

Here's more:

Hunter Biden received wires originating in Beijing for more than $250,000 from Chinese business partners during the summer of 2019—wires that listed the Delaware home of Joe Biden as the beneficiary address for the funds, Fox News Digital has learned.

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., has been investigating the Biden family business dealings and Joe Biden’s alleged involvement in those ventures. 

As part of the investigation, Comer subpoenaed financial records related to a specific bank account and received records of two wires originating from Beijing, China, and linked to BHR Partners.

BHR Partners is a joint venture between Hunter Biden’s Rosemont Seneca and Chinese investment firm Bohai Capital. BHR Partners is a Beijing-backed private equity firm controlled by Bank of China Limited. Hunter Biden sat on the Board of Directors of BHR Partners.

Again, as I suggested in my headline, suspension of disbelief is required to actually believe that Joe Biden has not been up to his lying eyeballs in the Biden Family Business scandal for years. 

Finally, as we reported on Friday, House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) announced he was issuing subpoenas for the bank records of Hunter, and James Biden — Joe's brother, promising to "follow the money." 

Another "oops," for sure.

The Bottom Line

As the Democrat Party continues to spin like an absurd top, it's become more than obvious that most Democrat lawmakers know damn well that Joe Biden is likely guilty of all or most accusations of wrongdoing. 

That said, their ridiculous protestations to the contrary are spewed solely for the consumption of Democrat voters.
