FBI Agents who covered up Hunter Biden's
laptop in 2020 must not get away with it

Original Article

Posted By: J. Arthur Brown, 5/26/2025 11:19:55 AM

On the eve of the 2020 election, FBI agents discussed an active money-laundering case against Hunter Biden just hours after casting doubt on the authenticity of the incriminating laptop during meetings with social media companies, according to newly redacted FBI chat logs obtained by Sen. Chuck Grassley. The FBI's refusal to confirm the laptop's existence and instead allow a false narrative to take hold that it was Russian disinformation came on the same day that The Post published bombshell emails from the device revealing Joe Biden's involvement in his son's lucrative influence-peddling schemes when he was vice president.

Elvis Chan Peter Courtney Laura Dehmlow James Baker Brady Olson From the article: "Agent Chan is just one Biden-era official who defied subpoenas issued by the Republican-led House Judiciary Committee to testify in 2023 and 2024. Members of Biden’s White House “politburo” who covered up his cognitive decline also defied subpoenas from House Oversight Committee chairman James Comer last year."

"In keeping silent about evil, in burying it so deep within us that no sign of it appears of the surface, we are implanting it, and it will rise up a thousand fold in the future. When we neither punish nor reproach evildoers, we are not simply protecting their trivial old age, we are thereby ripping the foundations of justice from beneath new generations. It is for this reason, and not because of the "weakness of indoctrinational work," that they are growing up "indifferent." Young people are acquiring the conviction that foul deeds are never punished on earth, that they always bring prosperity." Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago.

Assuming that the Republicans have the balls to play by Democrat rules? It is to laugh. They'll all skate. They always do.

Criminal obstruction of justice. Indict them. Imprison them. Until significant numbers of FBI agents go to jail for YEARS, this doesn't stop.

Like others, I pray that some kind of justice will happen to FBI goons. But, I am not confident. FTA: "It was two months before The Post’s story, while Grassley and his Republican colleague Johnson were in the middle of their seminal inquiry into Biden corruption, that they were ambushed with a defensive briefing delivered by the FBI’s then deputy assistant director of the Counterintelligence Division, Bradley Benavides, since retired, and Nikki Floris, currently the intelligence analyst in charge of the Washington Field Office." How is this Nikki Floris is still employed by the FBI? I don't get it. This, I assume broad, should have been fired on January 20, 2025 at 12:01pm. How the hell is she/he/it still employed, let alone in a powerful position? It's stuff like this that makes me shake my head and fear, we will never have accountability let alone justice for these traitors.

H.R. Haldeman got caught doing that stuff. From Wikipedia: 'After he left the Nixon administration in April 1973, Haldeman was tried on counts of perjury, conspiracy, and obstruction of justice for his role in the Watergate cover-up. He was found guilty and imprisoned for 18 months.' All of these should get the same.

Since they all violated their oaths to uphold the law and the Constitution, and therefore can't be trusted...a good start would be to fire them all, right now, for cause, strip them of all benefits and pensions, and then sort out which charges to file.

As the Catholic Church in the United States grapples with the implications of the first American pope, another important development affecting American Catholics has gone largely unnoticed: the death of the decades-long project of neoconservative Catholic elites to dominate and dictate the policy debate within the Republican Party. (Snip.) The only aspect of the first Trump Administration exempt from their criticism was his handling of judicial appointments (Snip.) Although the President often touts his first term appointments to the court, the Trump appointees -- particularly Justices Kavanaugh and Barrett -- have often proven to be meddlesome obstacles to the implementation of his populist MAGA agenda.

There were so many lies told by Joe Biden, his wife and their aides that it's hard to distinguish delusion from reality when assessing his disastrous presidency and determining who needs to be held accountable for all of the crimes and coverups. (Snip) According to an exclusive preview of the upcoming book "Original Sin" by Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson, at the same time that the White House and Hunter were denying the existence of his abandoned "laptop from hell" in early 2022, Biden aides were so concerned about the political fallout that they secretly arranged for the Democratic National Committee to obtain a copy of the hard drive.

Yesterday, news broke that a passel of Democrats -- three Congresspeople and the Newark mayor -- went all "insurrectiony" and tried to storm the Newark ICE faciliity. Newark's mayor was arrested, but as of this writing, the congresspeople involved (Reps. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-NJ), Rob Menendez (D-NJ), and LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) were still free. However, a new video has emerged that makes it look as if federal prosecutors might at least want to think about investigating McIver (snip).

In light of the terrible week Joe Biden had, it was inevitable that the media would try to drum up some fake controversy about Donald Trump. In fact, they happily obliged by grossly distorting comments Trump made during a campaign speech in Conway, South Carolina, on Saturday. "Former President Donald Trump on Saturday said he would encourage Russia to do 'whatever the hell they want' to any NATO member country that doesn't meet spending guidelines in a stunning admission he would not abide by the collective defense clause at the heart of the alliance if reelected," reported CNN.

Former New York Democrat Congressman Charles Rangel has passed away. He was 94. Rangel served 23 terms in Congress.

The Democrats reportedly plan to spend $20 million as part of an elaborate plan to win back all the young men President Donald Trump captured. According to the New York Times, top Democrat donors have been huddling it up at luxury hotels since the 2024 election in an effort to turn the tide on young men. “Democratic donors and strategists have been gathering at luxury hotels to discuss how to win back working-class voters, commissioning new projects that can read like anthropological studies of people from faraway places,” national political correspondent Shane Goldmacher wrote.

After his disastrous decision to run for reelection helped secure Donald Trump’s victory, former President Joe Biden is fighting for his reputation — and struggling to rake in cash. The subject of recent books detailing his decline, Biden is apparently having trouble bringing in speaking fees and difficulty fundraising for his presidential library, The Wall Street Journal reports. Perhaps this should come as no surprise. After Biden’s catastrophic 2024 debate performance against Trump revealed the extent of his declining health and marked the end of his campaign, why would anyone pay the former president to speak? And who would want to fund a Biden presidential library, as a monument

PORTLAND, Ore. – Senator Ron Wyden (D-OR) reintroduced a bill on Friday that could change the way Americans vote across the United States. Initially introduced by Wyden in 2017, the Vote at Home Act would give eligible voters the option to vote by mail (including via drop-off site), provide pre-paid envelopes to return ballots and would automatically register citizens to vote at DMVs. Under the bill, voters who live in states with in-person, same-day voter registration would still have the option to vote at a polling station. The Vote at Home Act would also send ballots in the mail weeks ahead

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa defended the “Kill the Boer” slogan as a “liberation chant” Tuesday, refusing U.S. President Donald Trump’s demand to arrest opposition figure Julius Malema for using it.[Snip] Ramaphosa denied that there was a “genocide” taking place — though others, like South Africa’s Chief Rabbi Warren Goldstein, later said the term “genocide” was appropriate, given the fact that over 650,000 people had been murdered since 1994.

NPR, Colorado Public Radio, Aspen Public Radio and KSUT Public Radio filed the lawsuit Tuesday in federal court in Washington, D.C. They argue that Trump’s order violates the First Amendment’s protections of speech and the press. “The president has no authority under the Constitution to take such actions,” the lawsuit adds. “On the contrary, the power of the purse is reserved to Congress.”

Dr. Mehmet Oz, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) administrator, said his agency and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) have identified at least $14 billion in fraud, waste, and abuse. “There’s about $14 billion we’ve identified with DOGE, of folks who are duly enrolled wrongly in multiple states for Medicaid,” Oz told Fox News’s “Sunday Morning Futures.” As an example, Oz said: “You live in New Jersey, but you move to Pennsylvania, and which state gets your Medicaid?

The first pictures have emerged of a North Korean warship seemingly covered in tarpaulin after it capsized and sank in front of dictator Kim Jong Un. Satellite images appear to show the naval destroyer languishing on its side alongside the dock where a launch ceremony had been held. But the launch failed, and analysis of pictures taken on Thursday suggest the ship is now partially submerged and covered with bright blue tarpaulins in an apparent attempt to conceal the wreckage. State media said the the 5,000-ton ship, which had been due to enter service next year, is designed to carry weapons systems including nuclear-capable ballistic and cruise missiles.

Russia has continued the operation to secure a “buffer zone” between the held regions in the Eastern part of Ukraine and the area west of the Kursk, Bryansk and Belgorod regions. The NATO alliance continues pouring weapons in to support Ukraine defenses, but the Russians are methodically grinding down the Ukrainian military. Volodymyr Zelenskyy is now saying President Trump’s silence is emboldening the Russian assaults. “Each such terrorist attack by Russia is a sufficient reason for new sanctions against Russia. Russia is dragging out this war and continues to kill every day,” Zelensky said in a post on Telegram Sunday morning.
