Poll: 54% of Democratic Voters Desire Joe Biden Replaced as Their 2024 Nominee

By ,

Democratic party voters are dissatisfied with the 81-year-old presumptive nominee, President Joe Biden, who will likely challenge former President Donald Trump, according to polling released by Fox News on Sunday.

The poll underscores the discord and disconnection that have gripped the Democratic Party since Biden declined to relinquish his leadership and permit an alternative Democrat to do so.

The survey showed:

  • 54 percent of Democrat primary voters prefer an alternative to Biden.
  • Just 43 percent of Democrat primary voters want to keep Biden.

The polling showed a slight uptick in negative sentiment against the president:

  • October: 53 percent prefer an alternative, while 45 want to keep Biden
  • March: 52 percent prefer an alternative, while 44 want to keep Biden

Prominent Democrats urged Biden to reconsider a second campaign against Trump in December, at which time he informed reporters that he was obligated to run for reelection. A reporter questioned Biden, “Would you be running if Trump weren’t running?”

“I expect so,” Biden replied. “But he is running, and — I just — I have to run.”

Conversely, Biden informed donors the day before his remark that he would likely abstain from running should Trump withdraw. Biden added that Democrats “cannot allow him [Trump] to win.

National and battleground state polling shows Biden losing to Trump:

  • Morning Consult: Trump leads Biden in six of seven crucial swing states.
  • NBC News: Trump leads Biden by two points.
  • Fox News: Trump trounces Biden by four points.

At Least Six Suspicious Activity Reports Were Lodged by Banks with Joe Biden’s Residence Listed, According to Senator

By ,

U.S. Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin spent years investigating the first family’s finances and now claims that banks submitted a minimum of six reports pertaining to Hunter Biden’s international business dealings. These reports highlighted the Delaware address of President Joe Biden and sparked concerns regarding potential criminal activity such as money laundering and even human trafficking.

Thursday night, as the ranking Republican on the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, Johnson disclosed to John Soloman’s outlet Just the News that the Suspicious Activity Reports (SARS) documented transactions totaling approximately $12 million over multiple years, with a portion of those funds traversing Joe Biden’s residence in Wilmington, Del., where he had granted permission for his son to reside.

Johnson stated that Joe Biden would have undoubtedly detected his son’s use of his residence as a business and banking address, if only by observing the mail that arrived at the address. Further, he stated that there are ample reasons for House impeachment investigators to suspect Joe Biden of collusion in his son’s international dealings. Next week, the House will consider whether to formally authorize an impeachment investigation.

“There’d be so much activity coming into his address, in this case, Hunter Biden’s businesses, that he obviously would have to be aware,” Johnson claimed. “So, again, I just use the word obvious, It has been so obvious for so long, that Biden Inc. is a corrupt enterprise. And that this president is corrupt, that he is compromised.

“And he fully was aware of this, that he fully benefited from it. The members of his family benefited from all these millions of dollars flowing in from countries that are adversarial to America,” he added.

A few hours prior to the unsealing of a nine-count indictment against Hunter Biden in federal court in California by Special Counsel David Weiss, Johnson made this revelation. The indictment accuses Biden of engaging in a years-long tax evasion scheme, wherein he avoided paying $1.4 million in federal taxes on millions in foreign incomes originating from countries such as China, Ukraine, and Romania.

According to the indictment, “Rather than pay his taxes, the Defendant spent millions of dollars on an extravagant lifestyle.”

Johnson, in conjunction with OG Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), conducted a two-year investigation into the Biden family scandal. The investigation concluded in 2020 that Joe Biden’s family amassed millions of dollars in foreign currency from adversarial nations, thereby jeopardizing the first family’s national security. Johnson is one of the most knowledgeable members of Congress regarding the matter.

Since then, revelations from House investigators, IRS whistleblowers, and subpoenaed documents have only served to heighten Johnson’s concerns, he stated on Thursday.

“They (Biden family) did nothing for it (the money) other than they had the right name. And they were influence peddling. And the people paying these millions expected favors in return, some kind of public policy coming from the former vice president and maybe even a potential president of the United States. Now they got him. Now he’s compromised.”

Johnson stated that his team has been assisting House impeachment investigators and will provide the SAR-derived information regarding Joe Biden’s residence.

“We found six of the Treasury reports on Hunter Biden, listing his suspicious activities,” Johnson said. “The money flows in those reports are over $12 million. Now, there might be double counting in there, you just don’t really know exactly what the activity is. These reports are really meant to obviously raise awareness to prompt further investigation, which of course this Department of Justice, FBI, I don’t think did an honest job of doing.”

“But it does point out we know what’s suspicious about them and there are terms like money laundering, human trafficking, those types, that that’s why these transactions raise suspicion,” he continued. “I mean, Hunter Biden has dozens and dozens and dozens of these Treasury reports that are concerned about suspicious activities he’s undertaking in terms of money transfers. I mean, this is, again, it’s just to me, it just underscores and confirms the criminal nature, the corrupt nature of Biden family, Inc.”

Inquirers from Congress claim they have not identified over 150 SARs that have been lodged involving Biden family businesses and associates for nearly a decade. While Hunter Biden has faced charges related to firearms and taxes, it is noteworthy that neither he nor his father have ever faced formal accusations in court regarding money laundering or human trafficking. However, IRS witnesses have testified before Congress that concerns about a foreign human trafficking operation prompted the tax investigation into Hunter Biden.

The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) states that a Suspicious Activity notification is submitted “to report known or suspected violations of law or suspicious activity observed by financial institutions subject to the regulations of the Bank Secrecy Act.”

Prior to the September 2020 presidential election, it was reported that Senate committees chaired by Grassley and Johnson had obtained SARs detailing concerns raised by FinCEN regarding a number of foreign transactions involving companies connected to Hunter Biden.

Hunter Biden’s work for the Ukrainian energy company Burisma and the millions of dollars he was paid for his board seat were detailed in the report by Grassley and Johnson. The Senators emphasized in particular how Hunter Biden’s work intersected with his father’s, then-Vice President Joe Biden’s, administration of official U.S. policy in Ukraine.

A $3.5 million wire from the widow of a Russian oligarch and Hunter Biden’s business dealings with Ye Jianming, an energy executive with ties to the Chinese Communist Party, were also detailed in the report.

The Daily Mail had previously reported that it had reviewed Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) issued by the Treasury Department. These SARs allegedly indicate that payments from Hunter Biden’s personal and business accounts were monitored as late as December 2019 and that payments from those accounts were linked to an “Eastern European prostitution ring.”

Wells Fargo identified 25 individuals associated with the foreign prostitution operation and approximately $7 million in suspicious transactions, including checks from Hunter Biden that “could have been forged to conceal his payments to prostitutes from his business account,” as reported by the Daily Mail.

In addition, documents from IRS whistleblowers Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler that were made public by the House Ways and Means Committee revealed that Hunter Biden spent money on escorts and claimed tax deductions for a portion of those payments. An investigator conducted an interview with one of Hunter Biden’s accountants and an alleged escort who described an encounter with the younger Biden for these documents.

Furthermore, it was testified by the IRS whistleblowers that they informed the Justice Department about a possible Mann Act violation while investigating Hunter Biden’s tax evasion. The Mann Act prohibits the interstate transportation of females “for the purpose of prostitution, debauchery, or any sexual activity that may result in criminal liability for any individual.”

Joe Biden’s residence has been linked to Hunter Biden’s dubious transactions on multiple occasions for this reason. Hunter Biden received two wire transfers from China in 2019 totaling $250,000 and $10,000, according to records of bank wires obtained by the House Oversight Committee in September.

James Comer, R-Kentucky, chairman of oversight, stated that two wires originating from China designated the Wilmington address of Joe Biden as the recipient. These payments were transmitted during Joe Biden’s presidential campaign.

“Bank records don’t lie, but President Joe Biden does,”  Comer said in a press release at the time. “In 2020, Joe Biden told Americans that his family never received money from China. We’ve already proved that to be a lie earlier this year, and now we know that two wires originating from Beijing listed Joe Biden’s Wilmington home as the beneficiary address when he was running for President of the United States.”

Biden Could Kill Musk’s Twitter Bid, Threatens to Investigate Acquisition as National Security Threat

By ,

The Biden DOJ may be set to investigate Elon Musk’s Twitter bid under the pretense that the takeover of the social media giant could threaten national security.

What is being colloquially referred to as the “Biden crime family” has now been flagged over 150 times for illicit banking transactions with foreign players, most notably in China and Ukraine.

The DOJ has so far ignored the potential criminal business dealings of Joe, Hunter, and James Biden, dealings that could essentially boil down to foreign bad actors having leverage over a sitting president of the United States. Instead, It appears that the DOJ sees Elon Musk’s takeover of Twitter as the real threat to national security. The top social media platforms have been covering for the Biden regime since Biden announced his presidential bid, so it is little wonder why Biden’s DOJ sees the Musk takeover of Twitter as a threat as he has promised that free speech on the platform will be a primary focus.

Markets Insider reported:

The US government is weighing national security reviews for some of Elon Musk’s ventures, including his Twitter takeover deal, Bloomberg reported on Thursday, citing people with knowledge of the matter.

Musk’s plans to purchase Twitter for $44 billion with the help of foreign investors, including Saudi Arabia’s Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, Qatar’s sovereign wealth fund, and Binance Holdings which was founded by a Chinese businessman, have concerned Biden administration officials, the people told Bloomberg.

The government was considering which tools they could use to review Musk’s deals, the people added. The Committee on Foreign Investment in the US (CFIUS), which is run by the US Treasury Department and reviews foreign buyers’ acquisitions of American businesses, could be an option, per Bloomberg.

The CFIUS carries out security reviews if a “transaction threatens to impair the national security of the United States,” according to federal regulations. When reviewing a transaction, the CFIUS can recommend to President Joe Biden that the deal be suspended or prohibited, per the regulations.

If the Twitter deal is reviewed by CFIUS for national security reasons, as reported by Bloomberg, Biden has the ability to stop the acquisition from going ahead. In recent months, Musk had requested the deal be called off.

With what is looking to be a “red wave” heading into midterms, it is very likely that a Republican-dominated House and Senate, as Newt Gingrich has predicted, could move forward with investigations into Anthony Fauci and the origin of COVID-19, as Ron Paul (R-KY) has promised, as well as investigations into the Biden Administration itself as promised by Jim Jordan (R-OH).

In short, free speech means the tech overlords won’t be able to hold back the veritable flood of information that could be blasted on the platform if and when these promised investigations start to yield fruit.

In addition, it seems as though Twitter will receive a thorough gutting of employees should Musk be successful in his bid. According to WaPo, Elon Musk has told potential investors in his bid to buy Twitter that he plans to cut the workforce by nearly 75 percent. But even if Musk does not take over the company, Twitter plans to slash nearly a quarter of employees due to a massive payroll cut.

The Post makes clear the corporate media’s chief concern about such cuts: that they would potentially “[cripple] the service’s ability to combat misinformation, hate speech, and spam.” 

Of course, as the last six years have shown us, not everyone seems to be in agreement with what is misinformation as well as what does and doesn’t qualify as “hate speech”. 

As it stands, a successful purchase of Twitter by Musk would likely be a powerful boon to the America First movement. If the Biden regime successfully squashes the acquisition it won’t be the end of the world as Twitter, though far from perfect, has already eased up considerably on censorship in the lead-up to this buyout, and there is no shortage of alternative platforms.

OpEd: Joe Biden Declares War on MAGA in Ominous Speech

By ,

Joe Biden gave a fiery speech on Thursday from what appeared to be the 7th or the 8th circle of Hell. In his speech, the bumbling Deep-State spokesperson who we are supposed to believe is leading the free world demonized over 74 million Americans as domestic extremists. 

During the speech, Joe Biden made sure to draw a distinction between these MAGA “Extremists” and “Mainstream Republicans”, who you might also classify as weak establishment charlatans.  

Biden expressed his concerns regarding modern America when he said “Too much of what’s happening in our country today is not normal” and with this point, he is on the mark, as our nation has normalized butchering the genitalia of children and has chosen to send billions to a foreign country while the residents of Jackson Mississippi have run out of clean water.

Of course, it’s the detestable MAGA Republicans (veterans, soccer moms, small business owners, etc.) who are the “threat to our democracy”, and not the animated corpse sowing division on a scale never seen before.

 Of course, the Biden voter base, who spent an entire summer looting, rioting, and burning down cities, get a free pass. Even though they caused many deaths, injuries, and billions of dollars worth of property damage, the radical left doesn’t even merit an honorary mention apparently. Just to add a little context, the footage in the video below does NOT contain any examples of extremist behavior.

Perhaps I’m deranged, but it seems like this speech is essentially a statement on the record in regards to the intentions of the Federal Government. The White House and friends seem to be building a narrative for whatever percentage of citizens still actually believe anything coming from this administration, albeit on a poor foundation. They want us to believe that a majority of Americans are with Biden, and that (from the lips of Karin Jean-Pierre herself) anyone who is not “with where a majority of Americans are.. Then that is extreme,” but what the White House Press Secretary must not realize, or willingly omits, is that Biden is barely holding on to a 42% approval rating and is certainly not supported by “the majority”.

But of course, the real baddies are those vile MAGA Republicans who “embrace anger. They thrive on chaos. They live not in the light of truth, but in the shadow of lies.” Leave it to Joe Biden, the great unifier, to stoke the flames of this civil culture war.

Hilariously enough, Joe Biden went so far as to claim that “MAGA Republicans do not respect the Constitution, they do not believe in the rule of law”, because we all know that the likes of Joe Biden, Antifa, and Black Lives Matter are staunch constitutionalists.

Trump-Endorsed Arizona Republican Gubernatorial Nominee Kari Lake, a real politician, took on the liberal media outside of her campaign headquarters on Thursday night to respond to Joe Biden’s hateful rhetoric against the American people and discuss her America First agenda.

Lake opened her press conference by slamming Joe Biden’s awful tactics and her Biden-backing opponent, radical leftist Katie Hobbs.

Though it is unconfirmed, it appears that David Lynch was hired to make independence hall look like the Black Lodge.

We are living in dark times. Some of us are wondering if the recent mass hire of 87 thousand IRS agents, many of whom are being trained to use deadly force, will be a proxy army that will be used to harass Trump voters and anyone who refuses to comply with medical tyranny. Of course, this is purely speculation, but all it would take is the execution of a single or multiple false flag events to drum up a reason to go after these MAGA Republicans with force. Unfortunately, in the current state of our country, this speculation does not seem to be outside of the realm of possibility.

Stay safe out there folks, and hold close to family, friends, and the white light. Never resort to violence and make peace where you can. The rest of 2022 could be a rocky ride.

Whistleblowers Claim FBI, DOJ are Downplaying Negative Hunter Biden Information

By ,

Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) has claimed that “highly credible” whistleblowers are relaying information to him in regards to the FBI and Department of Justice actively trying to downplay the outpouring of negative press towards Hunter Biden.

The ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, through letters reviewed by CBS, wrote to Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray claiming that several sources within the FBI have given him evidence of attempts by the Bureau and Department of Justice to downplay, and even outright dismiss, bad press related to the first son. 

According to Grassley:

“The information provided to my office involves concerns about the FBI’s receipt and use of derogatory information relating to Hunter Biden, and the FBI’s false portrayal of acquired evidence as disinformation. The volume and consistency of these allegations substantiate their credibility and necessitate this letter,”

“First, it’s been alleged that the FBI developed information in 2020 about Hunter Biden’s criminal financial and related activity… It is further alleged that in August 2020, FBI Supervisory Intelligence Analyst Brian Auten opened an assessment which was used by an FBI Headquarters (“FBI HQ”) team to improperly discredit negative Hunter Biden information as disinformation and caused investigative activity to cease.”

The Iowan senator’s letter also claims that “an avenue of derogatory Hunter Biden reporting was ordered closed” by a senior FBI agent at the bureau’s Washington Field office just one month prior to the 2020 election.

“The allegations provided to my office appear to indicate that there was a scheme in place among certain FBI officials to undermine derogatory information connected to Hunter Biden by falsely suggesting it was disinformation,”

In the CBS report, it was noted that “more than 150 financial transactions involving either Hunter or James Biden’s global business affairs were flagged as concerning by U.S. banks for further review.”

In another letter, this one dated May 31st, Grassley’s accuses one Timothy Thibault, the senior FBI officer at the Washington field office, of potentially violating federal laws, regulations, and Bureau guidelines.

“Whistleblowers have reported to me, that although the FBI and Justice Department maintain policies dictating specific standards requiring substantial factual predication to initiate an investigation, Thibault and other Justice Department and FBI employees failed to comply with these requirements,”

 

“In light of these allegations, I remain very concerned that political bias by a select group of Justice Department and FBI officials has infected the Justice Department’s and FBI’s usual process and procedure to open and pursue high-profile and politically charged investigations,” 

Grassley alleges that Garland and Wray have “systemic and existential problems within” their respective agencies”, and has requested records from the FBI and DOJ with a deadline of August 8th. 

This all comes on the heels of reports that Hunter Biden could be facing potential criminal charges for not registering as a foreign agent while doing business deals abroad. Biden’s now infamous laptop has exposed multiple foreign business schemes the then-Vice President’s son tried to shepherd. Last week The New York Post revealed dozens of sit-downs between Hunter and Joe Biden that were frequently scheduled just days after Hunter visited with foreign officials.

It would seem that not even the FBI and the DOJ can make this information go away, try as they might.
