Joe Biden Admin Begs Supreme Court to Let Them Control Social Media Content – Alito Says Maybe


Posted originally on the CTH on September 14, 2023 | Sundance 

Justice Alito is going to allow the Biden Administration to justify why they should be allowed to control all the content on social media platforms and coordinate with the social media companies to remove opinion & information against their interests.  This should be interesting. 😂🤣😂

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Thursday temporarily blocked a lower court ruling that would place restrictions on the Biden administration’s contact with social media companies.

The brief order issued by conservative Justice Samuel Alito came less than two hours after the Justice Department asked the Supreme Court to step in.

It gives the court more time to consider what next steps to take before deciding whether to grant the administration’s request. In the meantime, the lower court ruling will remain on hold until midnight on Sept. 22.

[…] Alito’s order, which does not mean the court will necessarily grant Prelogar’s request once considered in more detail, said the states should respond by Sept. 20.

[…] “The implications of the Fifth Circuit’s holdings are startling,” Prelogar wrote. “The court imposed unprecedented limits on the ability of the President’s closest aides to use the bully pulpit to address matters of public concern, on the FBI’s ability to address threats to the Nation’s security, and on the CDC’s ability to relay public health information at platforms’ request.” (read more)

Methinks they doth protest too much.

Hunter Biden Indicted on Federal Firearms Charges – But Don’t Expect FARA Charges


Posted originally on the CTH on September 14, 2023 | Sundance 

Three days ago, the DOJ filed a motion in court to quietly drop the charges against former partner of Michael Flynn, Bijan Rafiekian {DOJ pdf Link}. The initial case was created by the Muller team (Weissman) and encompassed the issue of violations to the Foreign Agent Registration Act (FARA). After one failed attempt at prosecution, the Mueller team turned the case over to the DOJ who were going to refile the charges. {Backstory Here} Instead, as noted, the DOJ recently dropped the case.

Why does this matter?

Hunter Biden worked as a foreign agent for Ukraine and Chinese interests.  Hunter Biden never registered under U.S. laws which require foreign agent registration to represent the interests of a foreign government or entity.  This is the same accusation that loomed over Bijan Rafiekian.  The DOJ dropped the case against Rafiekian, because they will not be charging Hunter Biden for FARA violations.  The DOJ does not want you to notice the timing.

Today, a federal grand jury indicted Hunter Biden for federal firearm violations.  [4-page pdf HERE] This will be the extent of the criminal charges filed against Hunter Biden.  Everything else will be swept under the rug. Biden will receive a soft sentence.

The larger DC narrative will now shift to Second Amendment issues, and the defense will argue the Second Amendment doesn’t disqualify drug users.  This will put the discussion on a host of Second Amendment topics, which the Biden administration will then seek to use as they advance the 2024 election narrative, and simultaneously require more rules, laws, restrictions and legislation about firearms.

Washington DC – President Joe Biden’s son is under indictment.

On Thursday, a Delaware grand jury indicted Hunter Biden on three gun-related charges, including illegally owning a firearm as a drug user and lying on a form when he allegedly bought the gun.

Thursday’s move is a major escalation in the Justice Department’s probe of Hunter Biden, heightening both his legal jeopardy and his father’s political peril. The courtroom fight will play out in tandem with a Republican impeachment inquiry into the president that is scrutinizing his son’s business dealings.

The indictment notes that when buying guns, people must fill out a form saying — among other things — that they do not use illegal drugs. In October 2018, the indictment continues, Biden bought a gun despite being a drug user. It says he owned a Colt Cobra revolver for about 11 days — from “on or about” Oct. 12, 2018, until “on or about” Oct. 23, 2018.

If convicted, Biden could face up to 25 years in prison and hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines. However, sentences are often issued below the maximum length allowed, and some defendants don’t face jail time at all.

Lawyers for Hunter Biden did not immediately return a request for comment. (read more)

The tax violations will be handled as an agreement with the IRS.  The FARA violations will never surface.  The Biden corruption ‘pay-to-play’ scheme will not be prosecuted by the DOJ and will be left to the game of pretending in congress (impeachment).  Hunter will receive probation.

We accept the DC corruption as it is, not as we would wish it to be.

Joe Biden will not be the Democrat nominee in 2024.

US Pledges Another $1B to Ukraine


Armstrong Economics Blog/Corruption Re-Posted Sep 11, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

Secretary of State Antony Blinken paid Zelensky another visit last week, where he pledged an additional $1 billion in funding. The US government now spends more per day on Ukraine than on the entire Maui crisis. The corrupt Pentagon, the Deep State’s favorite money launderer, insists that we must continue to supply Ukraine with weapons and funding. Where is the money going? Only those at the top know the answer.

The US government has now spent over $113 billion on Ukraine since the war began. This does not even count the money sent to the World Bank to help the war effort. I would like to think that the majority realize this is all one big scam. The Ukrainians certainly do, as they know their government is corrupt. A CNN poll from August shows that a slight majority, 55%, of Americans want Congress to stop sending money to Ukraine. This is really getting ridiculous.

The people should have a say in how money is spent. The government is funding this proxy war with the money they steal from us through taxation. They allege we have a say in who will represent us, and that person will go on to make financial decisions on our behalf. The only politicians who do not support this war are anti-establishment, as Neocons hide in plain sight on both sides. Biden said, or his handlers told him to say, he would back Ukraine for as long as it takes, meaning this scam will not stop unless a new regime is installed.

While the figure may not be accurate, the Department of Housing and Urban Development believes ending homelessness in America would cost $20 billion. Hunger Free America estimates it would cost $25 to end food insecurity in America. New estimates state it would cost $5.5 billion to rebuild Maui — a small sum in comparison. The government could do all three of those things and still spend about half of what it has on Ukraine.

Biden Spent 40% of Presidency on Vacation


Armstrong Economics Blog/USA Current Events Re-Posted Sep 1, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

Karine Jean-Pierre must take a deep breath when Peter Doocy enters the room, hence why she rarely calls on him for a question. Doocy has become emboldened with his inquiries and is one of the only journalists willing to ask the tough questions. Doocy’s latest doozy: “It seems like the hurricane response so far is robust. Did you guys realize that the initial Hawaiian wildfire was not that good or is it just easier for people to get help from the White House when [Biden] is not on vacation?”

Biden’s propaganda specialist replied by saying the current administration replied in record time. “So, the premise of your question & the way you posed [it], I disagree…If you talk to…the governor…the folks on the ground, they would say…[he] reacted in record time,” KJP stated. Biden’s first response to the Maui fires was, “No comment.” The island was burning down and Biden sat idly on a beach Delaware for ten days without a care in the world. He offered the people of Maui $700, a mere fraction of what he gave to the people of Ukraine that same week, and did not rush to visit the island. The people did not want him to visit anyway.

The people of Maui booed Biden when he arrived and set up signs after he left to show how displeased they were. Biden made jokes about the ground being hot and then said he could empathize with the people who lost everything, as he once almost lost his corvette in a fire.

Joe Biden has spent 40% of his time in office on vacation. He has taken 360 vacation days since taking over the White House amid one of the worst multitudes of crises in US history. This proves that someone else is in control. No one in any occupation could take off 40% of the time and do their job effectively.
