Republicans hate America 14: The Hunter Biden fiasco was always a Fraud

I wrote in April this year that the unbelievable pressure Republicans and their complaiant media dogs are putting on Hunter Biden is with one goal in mind;  To Kill Him.  It appears Hunter Biden agrees with my conclusion;

He also described being doxed – having his personal information and address published – by the Rupert Murdoch-owned New York Post, which led to Trump supporters wearing Maga hats shouting through bullhorns outside his house while his wife was eight months pregnant.

“They published a description of where you could stand to see through the floor-to-ceiling windows,” Biden said, which he said drove him and his wife to move into hiding in the middle of the night. He said Maga supporters later brought a “30ft digital billboard on a flatbed truck” and parked it in front of his house.

Describing how Roger Stone, working for Richard Nixon, successfully discredited the wife of the Democratic primary candidate Edmund Muskie – “they labelled her a drunkard” – in order to help Nixon win a comfortable victory in the 1972 presidential election, Biden said, “The times have changed but the players have not,” noting that Stone was a key adviser to Donald Trump.

“They decided that the one way in which they would be able to certainly just undermine my dad’s confidence and ability to continue to campaign and move forward – particularly after the death of my brother – [was] to think that he could lose his son that he just had regained from an almost-death, through addiction,” he said.“And so they just began to attack, and attack, and attack. And you know, addiction provides for a lot of openings for people.”

Biden said he believes the attempts to discredit him are in the hopes that he will relapse.

Republican policy consists solely of Trolling

That last line absolutely describes the campaign by Republican scumbags, villains, and criminals who've decided since they can't govern, they will turn the US government into a vehicle of destruction and the weaponization of the Department of Justice is what they will devote all their energies towards.  Republicans have always obscured their plans and feelings by accusing the Democrats of those actions Republicans are themselves engaged in.  This is also known as EAIAC.

Republicans can not govern, have no interest in policy, have no political agenda, hate the American people, and seek to fundamentally destroy the United States.

Now you might think Hunter Biden is a loser or a scummy opportunist.  I however do not.  Hunter Biden checks multiple traumatic events under the ACEs and has fallen victim to the fastest growing disease which also garners the least sympathy in America; Addiction.  No private citizen has ever faced such a coordinated campaign off lies, innuendoes, attacks in Congressional hearings, and outright interference in the justice system.  Trump and the MAGA scum were so angry over the plea deal Hunter and his attorney agreed to that they bullied and threatened the Judge and special counsel David Weiss (a Trump appointee) into issuing a new indictment over tax irregularities.  If his name wasn't Hunter Biden, there'd never be this level of scrutiny over unpaid taxes, recall how Trump claimed not paying his taxes made him smart and how the MAGA Horde sagely nodded yes, of course and furiously applauded him.

It's aboot Ethics in Laptop Journalism!

As for the Rudy Ghouliani crafted "Laptop from Hell" there never was a legal chain-of-custody which would survive the simplest evidentiary scrutiny or open court testimony and that's why every rightwing troglodyte from Rudy himself to Glenn Greenwald relied upon their histrionic Faux News appearances to hype it. I'm confident that whatever operative was tasked with hacking Hunter's iCloud account, downloaded the cloud contents, images, and emails and then added those grotesque images purporting to be child porn as well as "incriminating emails" and other electronic documents.

And in reality, Republicans know they have no real evidence of anything.  Republicans rely on their ignorance of their drones, the contrived gullibility of the Corporate Media, the coordinated talking points of rightwing liars, and the aloof indifference of young people to advance their lies and conspiracies.

So, when Hunter Biden and his attorney Abbe Lowell said okay, Hunter will testify in public before the Republican tribunal because, 

We have seen you use closed- door sessions to manipulate, even distort the facts and misinform the public. We therefore propose opening the door.

every Republican and rightwing propagandist suddenly discovered they'd rather he'd not.  

For instance, Michele Tafoya, who suffered a CTE injury by proxy while covering the NFL for ESPN,  called for secret tribunals sometimes referred to as "Star Chambers" because an open hearing would allow Hunter Biden to present his side;

Yeah, that would be interesting. But I agree that — I prefer hearings to be done behind closed doors because I think that they actually get to the heart of the matter and they get some truth and they can ask questions without preening for the camera, without all the grandstanding. That is my preference.   

And for Abbe Lowell, his attorney, to say, well, you all use that to misinform and to distort the facts.  We want the closed-door one first. And I think that’s totally, totally appropriate. Hunter Biden would love nothing more than to sit, have cameras pointed at him and try to generate the narrative that he wants to form.

"We" want a closed-door one first because it's "totally appropriate" that "We" get too claim all sorts of bullshit was uncovered about the Biden Crime Family but oh sorry we can't share that totally real and absolutely true information because it was behind closed doors sorry.

 The Republican Party really has nothing to offer the American people, but hatred, fear, and bile.  Republicans hate the Untied States and don't want to let We, the People live our lives outside their bigoted control.  As for Hunter Biden, I wish him luck and strength he's the Tip of Spear fighting these evil Republican Bastards;

“One of the reasons why I’m gonna survive this – and I’m gonna survive it clean and sober – is because I am not gonna let these motherfuckers use me as just another example of why people in recovery are never gonna be OK, never to be trusted, they’re all degenerates – I’m just not gonna let that happen.”

Guns are the 21st Century version of the 19th century Opium Wars

"Illegal guns, illegal guns, illegal guns drive violence,” Chicago Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy.

Even though the barbarians may not necessarily intend to do us harm, yet in coveting profit to an extreme, they have no regard for injuring others. Let us ask, where is your conscience? - Lin Zexu (1839), Letter to the British Monarch asking the Opium flooding into China be stopped.

The Opiate of the Masses is not, as it was claimed Religion but, a false sense of Power and Security. Guns provide many with a flase belief that they are in charge of their lives and the world overall.

I know some gun ethusiantists. They firmly assert that when the day comes and the Tyrannical Government comes to steal their guns "they" may win but there will be more of "them" laid out dead after they've taken the last full measure.

While, there are a small kernel of Gun Nuts who have an deep longing to unleash their inner demons and engage in an orgy of gun fueled murder and bloodshed of liberals and Government bureaucrats while believing they are the Righteous, most gun owners don't want this but are ready to defend themselves and their rights.

It is nothing more than a false sense of power. And it's embraced by the Gun Nuts for the same reason that people turn towards drugs.

Which leads us to the Opium Wars of the 1800's. 

As Europe began to exert dominance over the world in the 1700's, the British East India Company was the World Trading Powerhouse, especially in Asia and the Orient.

Of course, other European Powers had interests and control, the Dutch, the Portuguese had Macau, the French had some interest in China and the Spanish Empire had the Philippines, but the EIC was the original Corporation which had the backing of the British Crown and Military.

While most of the world succumbed to the British model of trade, invasion and subjugation, trade with China proved a tremedous drain on the British Treasury.

The Chinese Empire with over 3000 years of contiunous history (at least theoretically) demanded silver in exchange for the Silk, Tea, Porcelain and other resources they traded with EIC and Europe.

Thus the British hit on a brilliant idea. Having conquered India, British merchants began to flood the Chinese countryside with Opium made in India, reversing the flow of silver. The situation became so bad for the Qing Empire and their people that after failed edicts and bans the Qing Emperor requested a direct appeal be made to Queen Victoria (it never reached her) to stop the drug importation and spare his people the harmful effects of drug addiction.

But, what happened instead was the importation of Opium increased every year (in the mid-1800's it reached the same amount as was produced in the world in 2000), and the British engaged in the Imperialist Wars which resulted in the imposition of Trade treaties extremely favourable to British "interests".

The Opium Wars were bad for China but, they directly led to the Taiping Rebellion, the bloodiest Civil War in World History, the death and slaughter wasn't eclipsed until World War 2.

Today we are facing analogous problems. The Gun Crazies are akin to the Opium Addicts and the Firearm Manufacturers flood this Nation (and others) with their Guns, not caring about the death and mayhem their product is causing, are very much similar to the opium importing East India Company and other merchants.

Firearm Makers also have their political wing, the NRA and other Gun Lunatics, to help enforce humiliating treaties on the American people forcing all of us to live under their* interpretation of the Second Amendment. 

But, again, why do people turn to Guns? Because of the feelings the gun ownership evokes, the brain chemistry it triggers and the false power and control, which many America feel slipping away from them, it rekindles.

The gang bangers in Chicago are the prime example of false power and control. Leaving aside whatever the circumstances which led them to their current situation, the acquisition of the gun has given them the belief that they are powerful and need to be feared and respected.

When they lash out at rival gang bangers or track down some "punk" whose disrespected them it's the feeble lashing out of those who are, in reality, powerless. Nonetheless, their blind random shot selection has real and terrible consequences.

Similarly, those Gun Nuts who've taken to parading around in the open with their whizz-bang tactically outfitted AR-15s or wave their piece around when someone dares to tell them to stop driving recklessly or shoot at cars which dare to touch their sacred driveways are the same as the Chicago-land criminals and filled with the same false sense of power.

Additionally, the "responsible" gun owners who can't be inconvenienced to properly secure their weapons are like the deluded denizens of an Opium Den. Lost in the fog of their delusions they leave their weapons unlocked, uncased, loaded and readily accessible and the result is an accidental shooting of a child.

Thus, right now we are doomed to suffer more Mass Shootings, more preventable deaths, more gun murders, more road rage shoot-outs because we're hooked on the Gun, the most dangerous drug ever made.

*- the view of the Second Amendment that 350 million guns and more every year should be readily available and no restrictions of any kind can stop an American from buying a gun are the views of the Firearm Makers who don't care about what their guns do as long as more are sold.
