Yea nothing fishy about Joe Bidens lapdog appointing a special investigator for his own sons investigation. Probably to gather all evidence and make it go poof before anyone with a sliver of integrity can get near.

Ya'll understand this is the plan, right?

Either it gets slow walked to after the election, and gets pardoned by daddy or daddy resigns after pardoning them both.

And I will say it again, impeachment is the dems plan. It is multi-faceted...

1. They got things passed and signed by Biden and EOs.

2. They got their biolab and war in ukraine...joe going covers that up.

3. Joe takes fall for corruption.

4. Harris runs on identity politics alone. And wins cause it will be rigged again.

5. They have another puppet in the WH.

Weiss was originally appointed to the case during Trump's administration.

It's weird that a prosecutor from the state where a potential crime was committed is the prosecutor for that case?


That's not unusual for a normal everyday investigation but a president and 50 yr politician in the state pushes the conflict of interest envelope for me.

This was in the article..

"The order gives Weiss the authority to "prosecute federal crimes in any federal judicial district"

This gives him authority outside of Delaware so someone outside of the possible sphere of influence in Delaware could investigate potential crimes.

Not that I believe they will ever find anything but there ya go..😂

Technically it's not a law. It's a regulation.


CFR isn't like an environmental regulation or something like that that is open to interpretation and can be ignored. CFR is legally binding.


These rules are considered legally binding just as any statute.




Also, it's not without precedent. In 2003, Comey appointed Patrick Fitzgerald as special counsel despite him being an active US attorney.


That's not true. Fitzgerald's duties as a federal attorney ended in 2012.

Edit: So I misread the dates. I thought I read 2002. Yes, Fitzgerald was still an active federal attorney in 2003 when he was named special counsel.

However, the documentation naming him special counsel specifically stated that Comey wasn't naming him Special Counsel under the applicable statute. So he was special counsel in name only, as a way of getting around the law, which is crooked as #. Maybe Garland is taking this from that playbook.

Also, do you really feel that if a law has been broken before it makes it okay to break it again?

And likely sold the contents for Biden crime family income, as emails on Hunter Biden's laptop indicate.

Likely? Joe says so himself.

David Weiss is the guy who signed off on Hunter's sweetheart deal...

They may be legally binding but there are no penalties listed for violating any of the regulations in Title 28 (the section pertaining to the DOJ.)


That's not true. Fitzgerald's duties as a federal attorney ended in 2012.


Last time I checked 2003 comes before 2012.

Regardless what anyone thinks, the facts are this;

Bidens corruption charges are going away.

Say bye-bye to the corruption charges.

(DB waves bye-bye)

We will know nothing and be happy.

Thank you for acknowledging he broke the law.

Yeah I read that wrong. I edited my post.

Which is why he was appointed instead of an outside appointment as required by the law.

They want Weiss because he has shown for 5 years that he has Biden's back.

This is absolutely nothing but a smoke screen to provide cover for Joe and Hunter.


From now on, any questions about Hunter will be deferred to the special counsel. No chance of Hunter testifying before congress now, because "he is under investigation".

Appointing the same person who gave Hunter a sweetheart deal as a special counsel is laughable at best. Just another dog and pony show.

Corruption charges made by the evidence, members of the House, the facts.

Did you catch Rep. Langworthy's interview on Fox News last night? The GOP has no evidence that Biden broke the law.

Nope, so Biden is innocent?

Awesome.

Vote for him again.

Bank records are evidence.

Biden's own admission on live TV is evidence.

Phone records are evidence.

How convenient. I smell a rat. Now they can drag this out till forever. What a crock of crap.



You probably should have read the article before blasting out the first thought that popped into your mind.

If you had, you would know that the negotiations for a plea deal that the judge imposed on both the prosecution and the defense last month have collapsed. In return for pleading guilty to the two misdemeanors, the defense wanted the prosecution to agree that Hunter couldn't be prosecuted for any other of his business deals that might have been crooked. The prosecution refused, and now Hunter wants to withdraw his guilty pleas and take the case to trial and take his chances with a jury.

That's why the prosecutor is now getting special counsel status--so he can take the case to trial independent of Merrick Garland.


I already know this and have since the day it was announced. You should brush up on your assuming skills for they are lacking. I stand by what I said...........I smell a rat.

I can see the special counsel report already...


After a thorough investigation, it has been found that although Hunter Biden was extremely careless in his financial affairs, no reasonable prosecutor would bring charges.


Seems like I heard crap like that before somewhere........

Biden's supporters know he's corrupt. Don't take their playing dumb seriously. They're just toeing the line. They know he's been selling favors, they're just okay with it because he's a Democrat.
