Hunter Biden netted big money from Ukraine – court documents
RT | August 3, 2023
Court documents stemming from Hunter Biden’s failed plea-bargain deal on federal criminal charges have revealed that US President Joe Biden’s son brought in income of more than $4.4 million, mostly from China and Ukraine, while paying no taxes in 2017 and 2018.
In 2017 alone, Hunter Biden netted nearly $2.3 million from foreign sources, including over $1.6 million from his Chinese business interests and $500,000 in director’s fees from a Ukrainian energy company, according to a filing released on Wednesday by US District Court Judge Maryellen Noreika in Wilmington, Delaware. He also had $70,000 in earnings from a Romanian business and $48,000 from a multinational law firm.
The president’s son belatedly reported an additional $2.1 million in earnings from 2018. He didn’t pay taxes for either year, despite having enough money and being repeatedly urged by his accountant to do so, according to the documents, which Noreika released in response to a request from NBC News.
Biden became addicted to crack cocaine in 2016, contributing to the collapse of his marriage and his most significant business relationship the following year. Despite his escalating drug use, “Biden successfully entered into business ventures and landed legal clients, earning millions of dollars.”
Republican lawmakers have accused the Biden family of soliciting bribes through Hunter Biden’s overseas business forays, including a stint serving as a director for Ukrainian energy firm Burisma Holdings. Burisma founder Mykola Zlochevsky reportedly urged Hunter Biden, whose father was then the US vice president, to help end a corruption investigation against the company in 2015.
Zlochevsky later told an FBI informant that he was coerced into paying a $10 million bribe to the Bidens and that he had multiple recordings to verify his claims.
Hunter Biden’s substance abuse worsened in 2018, when he moved to Los Angeles for a “spring and summer of nonstop debauchery,” according to the plea agreement. Weeks before his 2017 tax return was due to be filed, he received a $1 million payment for legal services to Chinese business associate Patrick Ho, but he spent almost all of the money over the next six months on travel, entertainment and other expenses. Similarly, around the time his 2018 return was due, in April 2019, he received $758,000 and spent almost all the money by the end of May.
The documents showed that an unidentified third party paid Biden’s nearly $2 million in combined tax liabilities for 2017 and 2018 in October 2021. That same person also paid about $243,000 on Biden’s behalf for unresolved tax liabilities from 2016 and 2019. Media outlets have identified that backer as Kevin Morris, Hunter Biden’s “sugar brother” lawyer in Los Angeles.
Noreika refused to accept the plea agreement last week, saying she had concerns about the terms granted to Biden. Republicans had accused prosecutors in the Biden administration’s Department of Justice (DOJ) of giving the president’s son a “sweetheart” deal on the tax charges against him and a separate case involving an illegal gun purchase. Republican lawmakers launched an investigation this week of the DOJ’s handling of the plea and diversion agreements in Hunter Biden’s cases.

The lies about the 1967 war are still more powerful than the truth
By Alan Hart | June 4, 2012
In retrospect it can be seen that the 1967 war, the Six Days War, was the turning point in the relationship between the Zionist state of Israel and the Jews of the world (the majority of Jews who prefer to live not in Israel but as citizens of many other nations). Until the 1967 war, and with the exception of a minority of who were politically active, most non-Israeli Jews did not have – how can I put it? – a great empathy with Zionism’s child. Israel was there and, in the sub-consciousness, a refuge of last resort; but the Jewish nationalism it represented had not generated the overtly enthusiastic support of the Jews of the world. The Jews of Israel were in their chosen place and the Jews of the world were in their chosen places. There was not, so to speak, a great feeling of togetherness. At a point David Ben-Gurion, Israel’s founding father and first prime minister, was so disillusioned by the indifference of world Jewry that he went public with his criticism – not enough Jews were coming to live in Israel.
So how and why did the 1967 war transform the relationship between the Jews of the world and Israel? … continue

From November 2008 to January 2017, Joe Biden was attached to Barach Obama at the hip as his vice president. Or was he President of Vice? Obama has been left completely out of the loop when his VP and Sec of State Hillary Clinton were raking in not just millions, but tens of millions from foreign interests. I recall the Saudis gave Hillary 20 million to her Foundation overseen by her daughter Chelsea who was being paid 3 million a year. So while Hillary was getting richer selling access to her office, Russian and Ukrainian oligarchs and Romanian and Chinese businessmen were forking over huge sums to the Bidens for access to the Obama administration. And yet we are to assume Barack Obama was unaware and not involved.. tee hee hee hee…I’m sorry but I have to laugh at the thought of the ONE allowing his subordinates to cash in on their positions of power while he looked the other way. Obama walked into the White House with a total net worth of $250k. He walked out 8 years later a multi-millionaire on a salary of 400k a year. Maybe the ONE was a penny pincher who saved every nickel he made. And then again maybe he wasn’t. Maybe the ONE also cashed in by accepting a percentage of the combined take for allowing this scheme in the first place. This makes more sense than the “Obama was out of the loop” nonsense.
Obama had his own scam going when he donated 2 billion dollars, taken from the US Treasury general fund, to Solyndra and a couple of dozen other alternative energy providers. Solyndra received $500k to produce make solar panels that would produce solar energy. But it wasn’t too long before Solyndra went bankrupt after producing not one KW of electricity. Where did the half-million disappear to? An independent investigation turned up evidence that Solyndra deposited the 500k in an account it took out with Goldman Sachs. GS turned around and donated several million to the reelection campaigns of Mitch McConnel, Tim Johnson, and Barach Obama. McConnell and Tim Johnson were Co-Chairman of the Senate Financial Services Committee. The committee that makes banking laws. Or in the case of Glass-Steagall when Congress struck down the regulation that separated investment banking from commercial banking which allowed for the takeover of hundreds of commercial and community banks in America. A bipartisan action by Congress that led to the 2008 systemic blowout of the financial bubble that Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan helped Wall Street to create. This is the cesspool from which Joe Biden emerged to become President.
I dreamt that If an honest judge and jury could be found, all three, Biden, Obama, and Hillary, would be found guilty and sentenced to Leavenworth federal penitentiary for life…. then I woke up.
