IRS whistleblowers will testify on alleged Biden influence peddling next week Both worked extensively on the Hunter Biden case for years and have stated that they repeatedly attempted to address their concerns about the case internally, but that their warnings went unheeded. https://justthenews.com/govern..._campaign=newsletter Apair of IRS whistleblowers will appear before the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability next week to detail allegations of alleged influence peddling by the Biden family. Whistleblower Gary Shapley and an unnamed subordinate previously testified to the House Ways and Means Committee that Biden-appointed officials had improperly interfered in the investigation of first son Hunter Biden to prevent the bringing of more serious charges against him and to delay the case until after election season. Both worked extensively on the Hunter Biden case for years and have stated that they repeatedly attempted to address their concerns about the case internally, but that their warnings went unheeded. The Oversight Committee announced their testimony on Wednesday, which is scheduled for 1:00 p.m. EST on July 19. Chairman James Comer has led the panel in investigating numerous alleged corruption allegations involving the Biden family as part of a broader GOP inquiry into the first family's dealings. The unnamed subordinate will participate in the livestreamed event, signaling that the individual will publicly come forward in short order. "Since taking the gavel in January, the Committee on Oversight and Accountability has made rapid progress in our investigation into the Biden family’s domestic and international business dealings to determine whether these activities compromise U.S. national security and President Biden’s ability to lead with impartiality," Comer said in a statement. "From the thousands of financial records we’ve obtained, we know the Biden family set up over a 20 shell companies, engaged in intentionally complicated financial transactions with foreign adversaries, and made a concerted effort to hide the payments and avoid scrutiny." Comer further pointed to their prior testimony about the Hunter Biden case and suggested their testimony substantiated the idea of a "two-tiered system of justice that seemingly allows the Biden family to operate above the law." "This hearing is an opportunity for the American people to hear directly from these credible and brave whistleblowers," he said. "I look forward to their testimony as the Oversight Committee, along with the House Judiciary Committee and Ways and Means Committee, work to deliver transparency and accountability." _________________________ "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it."

If specific people at DoJ, IRS, FBI, etc intentionally let the statute of limitations run out, are they potentially subject to prosecution of some sort? If they intentionally slow-walked or stone-walled an investigation are they likewise subject to criminal prosecution? In a way this makes them some sort of accomplice after the fact to the underlying crimes, yes? | |||

Despite Supreme Court ruling, Biden unveils $39 billion in new student loan debt forgiveness https://justthenews.com/politi..._campaign=newsletter Just weeks removed from a Supreme Court ruling that declared its student loan forgiveness program unconstitutional, the Biden administration on Friday announced new relief for students that will cancel $39 billion in debt for more than 804,000 past students. “For far too long, borrowers fell through the cracks of a broken system that failed to keep accurate track of their progress towards forgiveness,” Education Secretary Miguel Cardona said in a statement. “By fixing past administrative failures, we are ensuring everyone gets the forgiveness they deserve.” Cardona said the new program is justified by adjusting payment schedules in student loan programs to recognize some qualifying payments “should have moved borrowers closer to forgiveness were not accounted for.” The justices voted 6-3 last month to strike down Biden’s plan to forgive up to $20,000 in debt for 43 million student loan borrowers, concluding the president did not have the legal authority to do so without legislation from Congress. _________________________ "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it."

So there's the hitch followed by his usual giddyup to prove uh, something. It looks like he's faced with more steps once inside, the mind boggles. Set the controls for the heart of the Sun. | |||

Something I haven’t seen discussed in these reports about various disturbing events is why people put themselves in the position of becoming subjected to whatever they find objectionable. I usually oppose blaming victims for being victimized—but only to a certain limit. Do most people find anything odd about the behaviors of some of those who put on shows in recent public events? Is it at all surprising that behaviors evolve and grow more extreme when they’re not only tolerated, but encouraged? Now I’m thinking of the reports that naked men engaged in simulated(?) sex acts in public before their audiences. If someone is shocked and offended by that, what did they think about everything that transpired before things got to that point? Did they truly believe it would be a good idea to take children to such an event even if they didn’t anticipate how far things would go? A more obvious example is the actions of a powerful public figure toward females, including young girls. It’s more obvious because there have been many demonstrations of that behavior in the past and the information is readily available through public sources. Why adult woman attend such events can perhaps be understood for a variety of political reasons or for the simple gratification of associating with the movers and shakers, but taking one’s children and offering them up as appealing targets? I’m reminded of something I read years ago about the fate of some of the officers who were associated with the plot to kill Hitler in July 1944. Some historians have described in gruesome detail what happened to them, evidently to further emphasize (as if that were necessary) how evil the Nazi regime was, and almost to engender sympathy or at least respect for those who were courageous enough to try to eliminate the source of that evil. When I was stationed in Germany I once saw a reference to one of the plotters that included the word “Opfer,” meaning “sacrifice” or “victim.” One author, however, pointed out that those men ended up hanging from butchers’ meat hooks for one fundamental reason: their original support for the man whom they only belatedly recognized was leading their nation to its doom. Had they and countless others not supported Hitler in the first place, to include helping to wage aggressive wars resulting in the deaths of millions, things would not have gotten to the point that they felt compelled to try to eliminate him. There is, of course, a vast difference between supporting an evil, murderous dictator and attending a political event at which the greatest danger is unwanted touching, but there is one fundamental similarity: participants’ willing support of such men is what makes such incidents possible. ► 6.4/93.6 “Cet animal est très méchant, quand on l’attaque il se défend.” | |||

She is presumably college-educated and was fairly articulate in the primary debates, yet continually comes up with these imbecilic remarks, accompanied by that Wicked Witch of the West cackling. This is difficult to understand and goes to show you that intelligence and education don't always add up to wisdom or even common sense. | |||

There are many who formerly self-identified as progressive, Democrat, or liberal who then were attacked by those they supported. The armed St. Louis couple who defended their home is one example. Dr. Bret Weinstein and his wife were literally run off campus under threat of violence when he opposed racial segregation. He merely asked what evidence there was that the college was actively racist. About 8 years ago my son was in college and said, "The danger is not in being a conservative on campus. The danger is not being liberal enough". It just seems to be a failing of human nature to not understand that people push everything to the extreme limit. Perhaps we expect the world to suddenly become static when we like a particular person. Perhaps we expect balancing forces to keep the guy we like from going too far. | |||
