"SNIP......

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said that the Justice Department is vetting information that Rudy Giuliani has delivered regarding Hunter Biden’s work on the board of a Ukrainian energy company, the Washington Post reports.

However, he warned that Giuliani might be getting bad information from his trips to Ukraine as part of a disinformation campaign by Russian security experts, citing their effort to disrupt the 2016 presidential campaign.

There is NOTHING to suggest Hunter Biden has done anything.

But remember that Russia hacked Burisma (where Biden worked) just last month, they could have planted anything.

Hunter Biden is a US citizen like any other. He holds no office. Even if it were true that he was under qualified for the Board position, and from what I’ve read, that isn’t true, so what. Why is it the business of the DOJ? If there is tax fraud, shouldn’t that be the business of the IRS? Shouldn’t Biden have standing to sue on some type of Government harassment?

I thought their present story about campaign interference was that Ukraine did 2016?

Of course Ghouliani is digging up "convenient" information. The question is, how much did it cost to do so? I would imagine it cost a few bucks to get someone to lie.

They are getting so many lies piled up, they'll never be able to keep them straight.

This is no less than the sort of thing Putin and all the world's tyrants do: criminalize their critics and enemies. Smear them, indict them or if that doesn't work have them trip and fly out a window. Oops! Trump and his twisted AG are starting to purge the system of all critics and perceived enemies. How can Trump get to Joe Biden? Attack and destroy his surviving son, Hunter.

We're headed for some really dark times before we get to November. Which is why the 2020 election is so-o-o critical. Election Day is our chance to have a purge of our own, vote these traitors out, and save the Republic.

Losing is not an option!
