Is Joe Biden going down? (multipart post)

It looks like the Joe Biden coverup is coming to an end. If these last few articles don’t take him down, things are even far worse than we thought (Where is Johnson & Jordon?). The entire country understands that these are criminal conspiracies manufactured against President Trump, but well documented, undeniable crimes against the Biden family who has nothing but contempt for the law. Does ANYONE have any doubt that if President Trump did what Hunter Biden has done multiple times, he would be in jail NOW?

Nancy Mace HUMILIATES Hunter Biden Despite All Democrats’ Efforts To Stop It

Original video. The Democrat Party continues to blatantly and frequently show their contempt of our laws and total disregard for the citizens of our country. This is just one of many instances of acting “above the law.” The evidence has clearly shown the country that multiple members of the Biden family have broken our laws with impunity thus far. On the other hand, that same party has kept President Trump off the campaign trail with baseless and reprehensible lawfare. So, it can be said the party is criminal on both sides of the law.

11 ways Biden and his handlers are hell-bent on destroying America

Original article. Isn’t delusional KH hilarious?/ht

By Victor Davis Hanson Fox News.

Published April 5, 2024 5:00am EDT

The path to civilizational destruction should be very familiar by now.

The Biden administration is ‘assaulting the very mechanisms and protocols we use to live’: Victor Davis Hanson

Historian Victor Davis Hanson tells ‘The Bottom Line’ the trend is only reversible with a change in leadership.

Why are those controlling President Biden using him to advance so much of a destructive agenda that it will likely end America as we know it?

If someone wished to destroy America, could he do anything more catastrophic than what we currently see and hear each day?

What would an existential enemy do that we have not already done to ourselves?

EX-OBAMA STAFFER RIPS BIDEN FOR BEING ‘PRIVATELY’ ANGRY AT ISRAEL, BUT NOT CHANGING POLICY: LOOKS ‘WEAK’

Here are 11 now familiar steps to civilizational destruction:

1. Wipe out a 2,000-mile border. 

Allow 10 million foreign nationals to enter unlawfully. Have no audit of any; nullify all federal immigration laws. Let in toxic drugs that kill 100,000 Americans a year. Give free support to those millions who broke the law. Smear any objectors as racists and xenophobes.

2. Run up $35 trillion in national debt. 

Keep adding $1 trillion to it each 100 days. Defame anyone wishing to cut wild spending as cruel and inhumane.

3. Appease or subsidize enemies like Iran and China. 

Demonize allies like Israel. Allow terrorists to attack Americans without adequate response. See Islam as either similar or superior to Christianity. Make amends to leftist governments for supposedly past toxic American international behavior. Follow the lead of international agencies like the U.N., ICC and WHO to atone for past American neocolonial and imperialist behavior. Recede to second-tier international status, befitting American decline.

4. In a multiracial democracy, redefine identity only as one’s tribal affiliation. 

Ensure each identity group rivals the other for victimhood and the state spoils it confers. Reboot all political issues by race and sex oppressors and oppressed. Destroy all meritocratic standards of admission, retention, promotion and commendation.

5. Recalibrate violent crime as understandable, cry-of-the-heart expressions of social justice. 

Ensure no bail and same-day release for arrested, repeat violent felons. Empathize with the violent killer and rapist; ignore their victims, especially if they are slain police officers.

6. Emasculate the military by using non-meritocratic standards of race, gender, and sexual orientation to determine promotion and commendation.

Deliberately impugn as racists and insurrectionists the largest demographic in the military who in recent wars died at twice their numbers in the population — so that they leave or never join the military. Encourage retired high officers to slander their commander-in-chief. Cut the defense budget. Stop producing sufficient weapons, but leave billions of dollars’ worth of arms to terrorists.

7. Reinvent the justice system to indict, bankrupt, convict, jail and eliminate political opponents. 

Use ballot removal, impeachment, civil suits, and state and federal indictments rather than elections to defeat an opponent. Mob the homes of non-compliant Supreme Court justices, and attack them personally by name.

Alito, Jr., Elena Kagan and Brett M. Kavanaugh pose in the Justices Conference Room of the Supreme Court on Sept. 30, 2022. (Collection of the Supreme Court of the United States via Getty Images)

8. Encourage the fusion of the bureaucratic state with the electronic media to form a powerful force for political audit, surveillance, censorship and coercion. 

Marry the FBI to Silicon Valley and hire its contractors to warp the news and hound supposed enemies of the people.

9. Make war on affordable gasoline and natural gas. 

Substitute inefficient, unreliable and expensive wind and solar power, even as energy prices nearly bankrupt the middle class.

10. Marry late, but preferably not at all. 

Consider males toxic, especially boys. Have no children, or as few as possible. Otherwise, assure children they are entitled, and must be sheltered.  Raise them to have grievances against past generations and current norms.

11. Turn world-class universities into indoctrination centers. 

Suspend the Bill of Rights on campuses. Train youth to graduate despising their own culture and civilization. Recruit foreign students from hostile nations to subsidize campus commissar bloat. Replace the curriculum with therapeutic propaganda. Ban the SAT/ACT and do not evaluate comparative high school GPAs. Ensure merit does not select the student body. Charge tuition higher than the rate of inflation. Bill the government when students default on their loans.

Why could those controlling the president be doing all of the above? 

1. They are delusional and think their socialist and globalist agendas are working and will save us.

2. They are raging nihilists who do not like the U.S. and deliberately want it destroyed as a service to the world. A ruined U.S. is preferable to a strong America.

3. They are Jacobin revolutionaries who are intentionally erasing the old United States as a prerequisite for creating an entirely new America that will arise from the ashes with no trace or even memory of its past.

4. They have no agenda. They are aimless fools and utter incompetents. These bunglers just wing it day-to-day, in response to what their radical media, academic and political masters dictate is necessary for them to retain power. They have no idea of the damage they are doing.

5. A bit of 1-3, but probably not 4.

DOJ Seeks Prison Time for Woman Who Found Ashley Biden’s Diary that Revealed Old Joe’s Perverted Acts with His Daughter

Original article. The DOJ just proved it is real and true.


By Jim Hoft, Apr. 4, 2024 10:30 am, 1208 Comments

Ashley Biden, under the leering eye of daddy, Joe Biden, poses for a photo at a much earlier time.

As previously reported, Ashley Biden, Joe Biden’s youngest daughter, left her diary under a mattress at the Palm Beach rehab home following a stay at a treatment facility. Two individuals who found Ashley Biden’s diary at a halfway house later sold the diary to James O’Keefe and Project Veritas.

In a January 2019 entry, Ashley Biden recalled how she used to shower with her father, Joe Biden, and suggested it may have contributed to a sex addiction.

The diary describes Ashley and her father Joe Biden taking showers together at an inappropriate age.

“I have always been boy crazy,’ Ashley wrote. ‘Hyper-sexualized @ a young age … I remember somewhat being sexualized with [a family member]; I remember having sex with friends @ a young age; showers w/ my dad (probably not appropriate).’ she wrote in a January 2019 entry, according to the Daily Mail.

James O’Keefe was later the victim of a late-night FBI raid and was arrested by the Biden regime.

The two individuals who found Ashley Biden’s diary at a halfway house pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit interstate transportation of stolen property.

And Joe Biden’s DOJ is using their guilty pleas to go after Project Veritas founder James O’Keefe.

Now, the Department of Justice is seeking prison time for Aimee Harris who found the diary under Ashley Biden’s mattress.

The Hill reported:

The Department of Justice (DOJ) is seeking prison time for Aimee Harris, the woman who stole the diary of the president’s daughter, Ashley Biden, and sold it to conservative media site Project Veritas for tens of thousands of dollars before the 2020 presidential election.

According to the DOJ, Harris was temporarily staying at the Delray Beach, Fla., residence of Ashley Biden in September 2020 when she stole the diary “containing highly personal entries” as well as tax records, a cellphone and family photographs. Harris enlisted defandant Robert Kurlander to assist her in selling the collected material.

Project Veritas, based in New York, paid Harris and Kurlander $20,000 each for the diary and other materials the pair returned to Florida to obtain. Project Veritas is a controversial media outlet known for sting operations, sending its staffers undercover to record sources and capture what they say is the true story behind the headlines.

In November, the DOJ raided two locations tied to Project Veritas and the organization’s founder, James O’Keefe.

Project Veritas never published the diary, but a different website did. O’Keefe, who said he received the diary from tipsters who found it abandoned in a hotel room, said he did not publish it because he could not verify its authenticity.

President Trump Calls on Biden to Fire Lloyd Austin

Original article. Security? What security? Secretary of Defense missing for 3 to 4 days and no one notices. Same attitude as our security concerning the Biden invasion.


By Kristinn Taylor, Jan. 7, 2024 8:20 pm, 342 Comments

President Trump posted a statement on Truth Social Sunday night calling on Joe Biden to fire Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin for “improper professional conduct and dereliction of duty.”

Austin, 70, has served as secretary of Defense since the start of the Biden administration in January, 2021. Austin has come under fire after the Pentagon revealed Friday he had been secretly seriously ill in an ICU since Monday without informing Joe Biden, White House staff or Congress for three or four days, respectively.

Austin’s job is reportedly safe for now, with Biden having spoken with him by phone on Saturday.

Trump posted, “Failed Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin should be fired immediately for improper professional conduct and dereliction of duty. He has been missing for one week, and nobody, including his boss, Crooked Joe Biden, had a clue as to where he was, or might be. He has performed poorly, and should have been dismissed long ago, along with “General” Mark Milley, for many reasons, but in particular the catastrophic surrender in Afghanistan, perhaps the most embarrassing moment in the history of our Country!”

Austin had an elective medical procedure on December 22 and was taken to the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland because of severe pain according to a Pentagon statement released Sunday evening to reporters. The statement also said Austin was treated in the ICU and is remaining in the ICU for “privacy” even though he no longer needs that level of care.

Three days after his December 22nd medical procedure, pro-Hamas protesters staged a dawn protest on Christmas Day at Austin’s Falls Church, Virginia home (it is not known if Austin was at home then):

Politico reported on Biden’s phone call with Austin and why his job is considered safe (excerpt):

…Still, Biden held a “cordial conversation” with his defense secretary on Saturday night, per one of the U.S. officials. “The president has complete trust and confidence in Secretary Austin,” the official said. A National Security Council spokesperson echoed that sentiment, noting Biden “is looking forward to [Austin] getting back to the Pentagon.”

Four officials said Austin’s job seemed secure for the moment, especially after the phone call with Biden. They argued that it was a rare blemish in an otherwise strong tenure, namely cajoling Western nations to send advanced weapons to Ukraine, though Austin critics note he oversaw the chaotic military withdrawal from Afghanistan.

The officials also noted that it was an election year, that Biden and Austin are very close due to the former general’s friendship with the president’s late son Beau Biden — they attended Catholic services while serving in Iraq — and that it would be hard to get another Defense secretary confirmed by the Senate.

Sunday night, the Washington Post also reported Austin’s job is safe (excerpt):

A senior official, who like others spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss the situation, noted what he described as “an exceptionally close relationship” between Austin and Biden, whose son Beau served as military lawyer under Austin when he was a top commander in Iraq.

“There’s a lot of trust there on both sides, and this episode has not diminished that trust one bit,” this person said. “The president is looking forward to the secretary’s continued service.”

A White House official said Biden had “full confidence” in Austin and was looking forward to him being back at the Pentagon.

…If Biden himself was frustrated or concerned, he took little noticeable action as a result. On the evening of Jan. 6, after news of Austin’s condition was made public and consternation spread around the capital, Biden spoke by phone with Austin in what officials described as a warm conversation and the president wished him well in his recovery.

Biden has also long felt a sense of loyalty to Austin. After Austin’s return from Iraq, where he attended Catholic Mass with Beau Biden, he and the younger Biden stayed in touch.

The House Armed Services Committee issued a ‘sternly worded’ joint statement on Sunday by Chairman Mike Rogers (R-AL) and Ranking Member Adam Smith (D-WA):

U.S. Representatives Mike Rogers (R-AL) and Adam Smith (D-WA), Chairman and Ranking Member of the House Armed Services Committee, issued the following statement regarding the notification of Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin III’s recent hospitalization.

“While we wish Sec. Austin a speedy recovery, we are concerned with how the disclosure of the Secretary’s condition was handled. Several questions remain unanswered including what the medical procedure and resulting complications were, what the Secretary’s current health status is, how and when the delegation of the Secretary’s responsibilities were made, and the reason for the delay in notification to the President and Congress.

“Transparency is vitally important. Sec. Austin must provide these additional details on his health and the decision-making process that occurred in the past week as soon as possible.”

Donald Trump Jr. cut to the heart of the matter in a Sunday afternoon post, “The deep state doesn’t bother telling Biden that his Secretary of Defense was hospitalized and out of commission for 4 days because they know he can’t comprehend what that means anyway and they think they’re the ones in charge and don’t need to follow the legal chain of command!”

ANNOUNCING: Ukrainian Politician Who Broke the Biden-Burisma Corruption Story – Sits for FIRST INTERVIEW in Two Years – Will Reveal BOMBSHELL Details from His Biden Crime Family Investigation – COMING SOON!

Original article. Interview coming Jan 10th. “Without the resistance of the democratic leadership of the United States could have led to the end of Joe Biden’s political career long ago.”


By Jim Hoft, Dec. 29, 2023 1:00 pm, 235 Comments

This information was sent to The Gateway Pundit from our patriotic contacts in Europe.

Andrii Derkach -the courageous man who broke the story about Biden’s family corruption in Ukraine.

The well-known Ukrainian politician Andriy Derkach, who was the first to provide evidence of international corruption and influence peddling by Joe Biden in Ukraine, has given his first exclusive interview after a long media pause related to security issues. Despite the pause in communication with the media, Derkach used all this time to continue his investigative work and collect new evidence.

The full version of the interview will be available at 13:00 on January 10, 2024 on the X/Twitter of American journalist Simone Mangiante (https://twitter.com/SimonaMangiante), who managed to communicate with the “Ground Zero of Biden’s corruption in Ukraine” – Andriy Derkach. Subsequently, the full text and video of the interview will also be posted on the website of the investigative Internet publication “21st Century Wire”.

Andriy Derkach became known to the world media after a number of high-profile corruption revelations concerning the “Ukrainian trail” in the activities of Joe Biden during his tenure as Vice President of the United States from 2014-2017.

Andriy Derkach and Simone Mangiante

Among the evidence presented by Derkach, which without the resistance of the democratic leadership of the United States could have led to the end of Joe Biden’s political career long ago, were shadowy earnings of the Biden family due to protection of the interests of the Ukrainian mining company Burisma; political cover-up of an international corruption scheme to use the developed structure of Ukrainian grant organizations that embezzled financial aid provided at the expense of American taxpayers; offshoring of billions of dollars due to Ukraine’s transfer to reverse natural gas supplies; accountability of Ukrainian law enforcement agencies to the US Embassy in the investigation of high-profile criminal cases, direct blackmailing of Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko for the sake of firing Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin, who came too close to the Bidens in the Burisma investigation.

It was also Derkach who first presented audio recordings of phone conversations between Biden and Poroshenko (known today as the “Derkach tapes”), and it was Derkach who proved the interference of the Democrat-created National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) in the 2016 presidential election on the side of Hillary Clinton.

Many American journalists, lawyers and congressmen at the time highly appreciated the evidence collected and publicized by Derkach, who proved the existence of an extensive structure of international corruption in Ukraine. Each public statement of Andriy Derkach was accompanied by indisputable documentary evidence in the form of official papers. A separate large area of Derkach’s work was the investigation of the so-called “Democorruption”, which attracted the attention of a reputable American investigator, prosecutor, lawyer and attorney – Rudy Giuliani, with whom Derkach planned to consolidate efforts on intergovernmental investigative activities.

However, after Derkach’s persecution by the U.S. and Ukrainian authorities, which included not only deprivation of citizenship and the status of people’s deputy, but also the opening of criminal cases and even an attempt to physically eliminate him by special services, the fate of Andriy Derkach remained unknown for a long time.

American journalists found out that Derkach had been forced to leave the territory of Ukraine, had not been active in public activities for almost two years and was focused on searching for and analyzing new evidence of international corruption activities, including those related to the Biden family’s activity in Ukraine.

Sensational facts presented by Andrei Derkach in an interview with the US media may become another step towards the possible impeachment of the incumbent US president.

House Speaker Mike Johnson Vows to Continue Biden Impeachment Inquiry

Original article. See the many details, videos and references to other articles.


The evidence ‘looks and smells a lot’ like impeachable offenses, the House speaker said, vowing to press ahead with President Joe Biden’s impeachment probe.

10/28/2023

Updated: 10/29/2023

Newly minted House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said President Joe Biden lied about his involvement in his family’s business affairs and engaged in a coverup, with the Louisiana Republican vowing that the impeachment inquiry into the president would continue as he now wields the power of the gavel.

Mr. Johnson made the remarks in an Oct. 26 interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity, in which he said that removing President Biden from office is a real possibility in light of the evidence that has emerged suggesting that the president may have engaged in bribery.

“We have the receipts on so much of this now,” Mr. Johnson said, referring to evidence that includes bank records showing tens of millions of dollars paid to various shell corporations linked to Biden family members, including the president’s son, Hunter Biden.

While President Biden has denied any involvement in his son’s business affairs, the GOP-led House Oversight Committee has released over 20 examples of evidence tying the president to Hunter Biden’s business dealings.

“There’s a lot of smoke here, and we’re going to find out very soon how big the fire is,” Mr. Johnson said.

‘Influence Peddling’

Records obtained through the panel’s subpoenas to date reveal that the Bidens and their associates have received over $20 million in payments from a variety of foreign entities, with the committee listing these in a timeline of the Bidens’ “influence peddling.”

“It’s a real problem,” Mr. Johnson told Mr. Hannity, adding that the evidence that has emerged thus far is the reason the Republicans launched an impeachment inquiry into President Biden in mid-September.

See Epoch TV video in the Original article (link above) which can not be inserted here.

“That’s the reason that we shifted into the impeachment inquiry stage on the president himself because if, in fact, all the evidence leads to where we believe it will, that’s very likely impeachable offenses,” he said. “That’s listed as a cause for impeachment in the Constitution—bribery and other high crimes and misdemeanors.”

“Bribery is listed there,” he continued, adding that the evidence the GOP has collected so far “looks and smells a lot like that.”

At the same time, Mr. Johnson threw cold water on the idea that Republicans would push for impeachment before all the evidence has been thoroughly vetted and a solid case is in place.

“I know people are getting anxious, and they’re getting restless, and they just want somebody to be impeached,” he said. But “we don’t do that, like the other team,” he said. “We have to base it upon the evidence and the evidence is coming together, we’ll see where it leads.”

“We’re going to engage in due process, because, again, we’re the rule-of-law party,” Mr. Johnson said.

President Biden’s Alleged Business Ties

While on the campaign trail, then-presidential candidate Mr. Joe Biden insisted that he had no role whatsoever in his son’s business dealings. He would later state publicly that he had no involvement in or knowledge of his family’s business affairs.

Mr. Johnson told Mr. Hannity that he believes the evidence that has emerged thus far shows that the president “lied directly multiple times about his involvement and knowledge of his son’s business dealings. We all know that now,” before adding that President Biden “has been involved in covering it up.”

The foundation of the president’s repeated denials has been shaken by a growing pile of evidence, however. First, there were the explosive revelations of the contents of the Hunter Biden laptop. Then, there were statements made by Hunter Biden’s former business associate Tony Bobulinski, and more recently a series of bombshell disclosures made by Devon Archer, former business partner of the president’s son.

readout of some of Mr. Archer’s key revelations from July 31 closed-door testimony before Congress include that Hunter Biden put his father, who was then vice president, on speakerphone during business meetings over 20 times and that the elder Biden was put on the call to sell “the brand.” While Republicans saw Mr. Archer’s testimony as proof that the president lied when he denied involvement in his son’s business dealings, the president’s supporters insisted the conversations amounted to “casual” small talk and that, at most, Mr. Hunter Biden had peddled the “illusion of access” to his father rather than the real deal.

The White House downplayed the significance of Mr. Archer’s testimony, with spokesperson Ian Sams saying it failed to provide the kind of bombshell evidence of wrongdoing that Republicans claimed.

“It appears that the House Republicans’ own much-hyped witness today testified that he never heard of President Biden discussing business with his son or his son’s associates or doing anything wrong,” Mr. Sams said in a statement at the time.

But later, in an interview with Tucker Carlson, Mr. Archer said that President Biden’s claims of having no involvement in his son’s business dealings are “categorically false.”

“He was aware of Hunter’s business. He met with Hunter’s business partners,” Mr. Archer said. He insisted that the claim that the president was in no way involved in his son’s business affairs is “not factually right.”

More recently, congressional investigators found evidence of a $200,000 “direct payment” to President Biden from family members, with some Republicans saying this is further evidence of the president’s alleged involvement in his family’s business affairs.

“This summer, Joe Biden said: ‘Where’s the money?'” House Oversight Committee Chairman Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.) said in an Oct. 20 statement. “Well, we found some.”

Impeachment Inquiry Launched

In announcing the impeachment inquiry in mid-September, then-House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) said President Biden lied about his knowledge of his family’s foreign business dealings. “Eyewitnesses have testified that the president joined on multiple phone calls and had multiple interactions, dinners, resulting in cars and millions of dollars into his son’s and his son’s business partners’ [accounts],” Mr. McCarthy said at a Sept. 12 press conference.

“We know that bank records show that nearly $20 million in payments were directed to the Biden family members, and associates, through various shell companies. The Treasury Department alone had more than 150 transactions involving the Biden family and other business associates that were flagged as suspicious activity by U.S. banks,” he added.

During the first impeachment hearing on Sept. 28, witnesses said that evidence uncovered thus far suggests misconduct on the part of the Biden family, though more is needed to support impeaching the president.

“While I believe that an impeachment inquiry is warranted, I do not believe that the evidence currently meets the standard of a high crime and misdemeanor needed for an article of impeachment,” Jonathan Turley, a law professor at the George Washington University Law School, testified.

In a memorandum to Republicans released ahead of the first hearing, GOP leaders noted that they’ve gathered evidence that the Biden family and their associates received more than $24 million from 2014 to 2019. President Biden served as vice president until early 2017.

The money was transmitted “through an exceedingly complex chain of transactions that made it difficult to track the flow of these funds,” they said in the memo.
