Joe Biden on the campaign trail: "If you like your health care plan, ..." // biden is out !
The GOP rebuttal will be from Governor Sanders of Arkansas, and that's beautiful. Remember how the leftists in government and the press treated her when she was President Trump's press secretary? And now she's a state governor and will be throwing President Grandpa's shit back at him.
Now that will be worth watching and it will be worth taking in the comments on MSNBC, CNN et al after the fact.
Hunter Biden’s allies have held initial discussions about creating a legal-defense fund to pay for a growing team of attorneys that is helping him confront both a years-long federal tax investigation and a host of new congressional inquiries, according to people familiar with the matter.
The effort has been triggered by Hunter Biden’s struggles to pay his mounting legal bills amid increasingly stretched resources and his pursuit of a new, aggressive legal strategy, the people said, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss a sensitive subject.
A constellation of lawyers have worked for Biden over the years, and he continues to add new ones as he prepares to confront the investigations that House Republicans are starting to pursue.
It’s unclear exactly how much the president’s son owes in legal fees, in part because some of the bills were expected to be discounted or treated as pro bono work. But three people familiar with his situation estimate his current legal debt at well into the millions of dollars, and the figure is likely to grow as he faces additional congressional investigations.
internal disagreements have broken out among Hunter Biden’s legal team, particularly over how aggressive to be amid looming congressional investigations. Those close to President Biden and the White House have preferred a more conservative approach that makes few public waves, while some close to Hunter Biden want to be more assertive in telling his side of the story.
Hunter Biden has paid the IRS more than $1 million in back taxes, using a loan that came from Morris.
Republicans have also tried to focus on Kevin Morris, one of Biden’s lawyers who is also a close friend and has loaned him money.

I believe a "plague" of lawyers would be a more appropriate description, especially when they are operating on behalf of a slimy Biden.

Hunter must have made a ton on his artwork. Abbe Lowell is the most expensive lawyer around. He defended a local attorney here and I believe Bill Clintion used him. Pretty ruthless guy going after the owner of the computer shop.

That would be a good use of Karma. Of course, I'm pretty sure he hasn't got either her cojones or thick enough skin.
I would hope not. McCarthy doesn't have to stoop to Pelosi's level.
In the other thread there's a video of Reagan's 1982 SOTU address. Reagan and Tip O'Neill are very cordial to one another.

What I’d love to see at the state of the union speech tonight: Kevin McCarthy attaches his copy of the speech to a group of helium balloons and sets it adrift behind Brandon. I’d pay for that on pay per view. The would be right up there with the “You lie” shout during Obama’s.

"Biden admin removing most surveillance balloons at southern border due to cost"
From the article: "The Department of Defense, which agreed to spend $52 million to continue operating aerostats through to the end of FY 2022, which ended in October, after the Department of Homeland Security cut funding for the program."
$52 million. Seems like chump change to me, compared to the billions the administration is gleefully giving to other countries.
Grr.
God bless America.

Uh huh
This was something I suspected all along.
From the UK Daily Mail who I believe over most of our own news outlets right now:
Hunter Biden and his high-powered and expensive legal team sent Rudy Giuliani, Tony Bobulinski, and 12 others a “litigation hold” letter to preserve “Laptop from Hell” records, a move seen by some critics as a public relations tactic to change the troubling narrative for the Biden family.
The litigation letter asks the individuals to “preserve potential evidence for future lawsuits related to the alleged theft of personal data that may include information from his laptop,” NBC News reported.
Among those asked to preserve records are Roger Stone; John Paul Mac Isaac, the computer repairman; lawyer Robert Costello; ex-Trump aide Garrett M. Ziegle; Biden family partner Bobulinski; and Giuliani, the former Mayor of New York City and Trump attorney.
Each letter to the 14 individuals says:
You have made various statements and engaged in certain activities by your own admission, or that have been publicly reported in the media, concerning our client, Robert Hunter Biden (“Mr. Biden”). This letter (“Notice”) constitutes notice that a litigation hold should be in effect for the preservation and retention of all records and documents related to Mr. Biden.
Hunter’s legal team member told NBC News the president’s son is trying to protect his “family” from the extensive and sustained attacks related to its business dealings in foreign counties, such as Ukraine, Russia, and China. “We are going back to 2008 to ensure we capture the extensive — and sustained — attacks on the Biden family,” the statement said.
Mike Davis, founder and president of the pro-Trump Article III Project, told Breitbart News the letter is a “desperate, frivolous, and laughable” effort that will only hurt the family’s legal position, because the lawsuit will lead to discovery, a legal process by which Hunter would be deposed on camera.
“This is a desperate, frivolous, and laughable attempt to silence political critics of President Biden and his corrupt family,” he said. “It won’t work, and it will backfire—legally and politically—on the Bidens.”
“I hope Hunter Biden is stupid enough to file a lawsuit, because the discovery—including Hunter’s videotaped deposition—will be manna from Heaven,” Davis added.
The letter comes as Hunter appears to have tried to change the public relations battle waged between House investigators and his high powered lawyers. Experts told Breitbart News Hunter could be paying more than $100,000 per month for his legal defense. Hunter is reportedly weighing whether to pay for his defense by creating a fund to which donors can contribute. However, there’s little transparency offered about the donors.

The United States may very well be responsible for the sabotage, but the story being pushed is how Joe Biden helmed an intense, months-long planning of the operation. President Grandpa can't remember what day it is and probably shits himself weekly. GMAFB

Which, of course, begs the question: Who is responsible for what is done in his name?
