The Joy Of Painting With Hunter Biden

Hunter’s Happy Bag Of Money

We know politicians get fabulously rich by selling influence. They cannot do this directly. Some, like the Clintons and Obamas, set up ‘foundations.’ Billions of dollars are funneled into them in exchange for political favors. Currently Obama is getting paid back by the banksters using this method. All he has to do is conduct a few speaking engagements.

Others write books and rake in millions through front companies that buy out the books. It really amounts to money laundering. Hunter’s new art hobby is an obvious example. Suddenly the strip joint attending, crack smoking, relative-chasing son of the Resident In Chief is selling his work for hundreds of thousands of dollars. Presumably his father, ‘the big guy,’ gets his cut. The buyers get to remain ‘confidential.’

As a fine artist, I can say it take many years to build up a unique style and reputation before one can command what Hunter is getting for his amateurish efforts. Many of us are lucky to receive a small fraction of what he gets for a modestly-sized painting. This should be a big scandal and the mainstream media should be all over it, but instead we get silence. Remember, Facebook even banned people from talking about Hunter’s laptop, which contained solid evidence of criminality.

It looks like the criminals in charge are above the law. Hillary made $100k by trading cattle futures—something she was completely unqualified to do. She went on to sell influence and the Clinton Foundation raked in billions of dollars from corporations and foreign governments. The corporate media’s attitude was, “Nothing to see here, move along.”

Hunter Biden’s antics prove his father is a grifter to the core, but nothing will happen because the Democrats are above the law so they get to continue to get away with their happy little money laundering.

A picture paints a thousand words of corruption.

Does Formal Education Prevent Critical Thinking? A North Korean Defector Weighs In


Armstrong Economics Blog/Education Re-Posted Jun 21, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

Click here to watch Yeonmi Park’s commentary.

Yeonmi Park, a North Korean defector, compared her experience at Columbia University to life in the “hermit kingdom.” Education (i.e., indoctrination) in North Korea is designed to teach children from a young age how to think, what to think, and not to question the status quo. “History is forgotten in North Korea,” Park stated, adding she was excited to learn the true facts of history while studying in the land of the free.

To her dismay, she quickly discovered that her American ivy league college participated in the same behavior. After stating that she enjoyed Jane Austen and classical works, her teacher quickly corrected her for adoring books written by authors who were “bigots” with a “colonial mindset.” Students cheered for communism and socialism without regard for past events, such as the millions of lives lost under Mao Zedong’s rule. “They are dying to give their rights and power to government…they take it for granted. They don’t know how hard it is to be free,” Park stated. She failed to understand how students paying tens if not hundreds of thousands for education could cry oppression.

The most confusing part for Park is that Americans, unlike North Koreans, have access to the internet, books, and a plethora of information, yet they “choose to be brainwashed.” She concluded by determining that education is designed to prevent people from critical thinking. “The future of our country is as bleak as North Korea’s if we don’t rise up right now,” Park warned.

Can Shareholders Bring Suit Against Dorsey for Securities Fraud?


Armstrong Economics Blog/Rule of Law Re-Posted Jun 21, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

In July 2015, then CEO Dick Costolo departed Twitter, and Jack Dorsey assumed the role of interim CEO. Twitter was created by Jack Dorsey, Noah Glass, Biz Stone, and Evan Williams in March 2006 and launched in July 2006. By 2012, the platform had more than 100 million users. I am surprised that they have not figured out that Dorsey can be personally sued for securities fraud since he marketed Twitter as being the platform for “freedom of expression,” whereby he has personally taken charge of the company and did exactly the opposite of what was said when they went public.

If I raised money and said we would invest in BioTech, but then after getting the money I invested in real estate, that would be securities fraud. We cannot count on the SEC to defend the people. They get their marching orders and will never cross paths with someone like Dorsey. Worse still, if you take a public corporation and you flip it around for personal use, that too is actionable. Dorsey is obviously incompetent as a CEO.

Media Very Concerned American Parents Do Not Want Children Indoctrinated

This soundbite below from Meet The Press is reflective of the perspective of U.S. media toward the growing push-back from parents surrounding Critical Race Theory in schools.

The media are concerned, very concerned, that parents are starting to wake up. If this awakening continues, this could present a problem:

FBI Trap

FBI CREATES THE CRIME AND SETS THE TRAP

I once drew a caricature cartoon for Darren Beattie, the CEO of “Revolver News.” I’ve not conversed with a more brilliant young man. His site is exposing the FBI’s involvement with the so called capitol ‘insurrection’ of January 6. It was not an insurrection. It was a protest. An insurrection requires the protestors be armed and they weren’t. In fact, one of the unarmed protesters was Ashli Babbitt. She was murdered by an officer who had spoken out on social media against Trump and his followers. He wasn’t charged, and the corporate legacy media quickly went into lockstep and exonerated him.

We know the FBI routinely attempts to infiltrate groups that they see as potentially dangerous. They arrested many in a group in Michigan that wanted to attack Governor Whitmer. The FBI, by means of informants and undercover agents, compromises any group that might stand up against government tyranny by persuading them to perpetrate acts of violence. Even groups that speak out against violence are targeted. This includes the “Oath Keepers” and “Proud Boys.”  In other words, the FBI foments the very violence they are trying to prevent in order to carry out arrests and justify their jobs.

I think the Capitol protest was a set up so government tyrants such as Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden could rail against ‘white supremacists.’ They’re now shamelessly labeling Trump supporters as ’terrorists.’

Snowden warned us about the politicization of the security agencies and their abuse of power. The CIA, NSA, and FBI should be held accountable for their crimes, but of course that won’t happen. The mainstream media won’t do their job. Instead of investigating the security agencies they received talking points from them.

BlackRock in The White House


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on June 20, 2021 | sundance | 128 Comments

With Joe Biden in the White House you can expect to hear the name “Blackrock” in the headlines connected to a variety of issues from real estate purchasing to green energy projects with massive domestic and international investments.

BlackRock, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries) is a massive publicly traded multinational investment firm with over $8.68 trillion in assets under management [December 31, 2020 financial statement] in more than 100 countries across the globe.  To say that Blackrock is invested in globalism, climate change and leftist politics, would be a severe understatement {See Here}.  Larry Fink is the CEO and people like Cheryl Mills, Hillary Clinton’s attorney of record, are on the board.

Inside BlackRock there is a division called the BlackRock Investment Institute (BII) {See Here}.

Essentially the role of the BII is to tell BlackRock what is going to happen around the globe, and be the tip-of-the-spear in directing BlackRock where to invest money by predicting political events.

The Chairman of the BlackRock Investment Institute is Tom Donilon, President Obama’s former National Security Advisor (before Susan Rice), and a key advisor to Joe Biden throughout his career in politics.

You cannot get more deeply connected in the swamp financial schemes than Tom Donilon.

Donilon has been in/around government for 35+ years, deeply connected.  Before joining the Obama administration Donilon was a registered lobbyist from 1999 through 2005 for O’Melvney & Myers. {Bio Here} Tom’s sole client was Fannie Mae.  Fannie Mae is a government-backed private corporation that sells mortgages to investors.

Donilon took the lobbying gig because he was previously Executive Vice President for Law and Policy at Fannie Mae where he was responsible for Fannie Mae’s legal, regulatory, government affairs, and public policy issues.  Tom Donilon’s BlackRock Biography reads like a who’s-who of connections to the swamp {READ HERE}

Here’s where it really gets interesting.

♦Tom Donilon’s brother, Mike Donilon is a Senior Advisor to Joe Biden {link} providing guidance on what policies should be implemented within the administration.  Mike Donilon guides the focus of spending, budgets, regulation and white house policy from his position of Senior Advisor to the President.

♦Tom Donilon’s wife, Catherine Russell, is the White House Personnel Director {link}.  In that position Donilon’s wife controls every hire in the Office of the Presidency.

♦Tom Donilon’s daughter, Sarah Donilon, who graduated college in 2019, now works on the White House National Security Council {link}

So let me just summarize this….  The Chairman of the BlackRock Investment Institute, the guy who tells the $8.7 trillion investment firm BlackRock where to put their money, has a brother who is the Senior Advisor to Joe Biden; has a wife who is the White House Personnel Director; and has a daughter who is now on the National Security Council.

Put another way… Tom Donilon’s literal job description for BlackRock is to: “leverage the firm’s expertise and generate proprietary research to provide insights on the global economy, markets, geopolitics and long-term asset allocation,” and his wife is in charge of White House personnel, his brother is Senior Advisor to the President, and his daughter is on the National Security Council.

You seeing this?  Conflicts and insider information much?

The only thing missing is Hunter Biden being moved to the BlackRock board.

Now, I say again:.

Watch Where “BlackRock” and Biden Put Their Money…

Lawfare Activists Apoplectic Because The Arizona Senate Will Not Provide Advanced Details of Internal Audit Documents


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on June 19, 2021 | sundance | 166 Comments

The Lawfare activists are screaming foul because the Arizona Senate is not turning over documents from ongoing investigative measures taking place during the audit of Maricopa County.   The group known as American Oversight is a Lawfare group working on behalf of the DNC and allied left-wing activists.  They have filed suit against the Arizona senate trying to find evidence they can use to marginalize the audit before the findings are made public.

Seemingly pretending not to know about the separation of power between the state legislative body and the state judicial branch, the activists are filing suits to get access to the evidence in an ongoing Senate investigation.  Essentially, this is akin to demanding to sue for legislative content before the Senate can create the law and/or the harm from that law.

It is a clear Lawfare fishing expedition.

Remember, in order for far-left ideologues to advance their ideology, and/or ideological narratives, they must pretend not to know things.  Another way to look at this is the Arizona Senate subpoena -which initiated the audit- is akin to an ongoing investigation.  The Lawfare group are trying to get custody of details of the investigative techniques being used (forensic audit) in order to undermine the investigation itself.

To advance this narrative the leftists are using another Alinsky maneuver: “make your opposition live up to their own rules”.  The Lawfare tribe is accusing the Arizona Senate of not being transparent in their process.

An easy smack-down (with a current familiarity) would be to juxtapose this Lawfare demand against the House Judiciary Committee as they worked to assemble the articles of impeachment behind closed doors.  The leftist tribe would clutch their pearls if anyone sued them to find out in advance what details were being assembled in the articles before they were made public…. but that’s essentially what their demand is in Arizona.

PHOENIX — Senate President Karen Fann is taking the position that Arizona courts cannot force her or any other member of the Arizona Legislature to comply with the state’s Public Records Act.

In a new court filing, attorney Kory Langhofer, who represents the Prescott Republican and the entire Senate, is asking Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Michael Kemp to throw out a claim by a self-described nonpartisan watchdog group to get access to all documents and materials related to the Senate’s audit of the 2020 election results.

The Senate has, or will produce documents in its possession, Langhofer said. Ditto with those in the possession of Ken Bennett, who was tapped by Fann to be her liaison with Cyber Ninjas, the private company hired to conduct the audit. The only exception, Langhofer said, are those documents protected as privileged or confidential.

He said, though, what American Oversight wants are documents that are in the hands of Cyber Ninjas or other companies it has, in turn, hired as subcontractors. Langhofer said the Public Records Act does not apply to private companies. And he rejected arguments by attorney Roopali Desai that the records are public because the only reason Cyber Ninjas got the materials in the first place was because they were subpoenaed by the Senate.

But Langhofer has a backup legal argument just in case the judge does not read the scope of the Public Records Act as narrowly as he does. He told Kemp he has no jurisdiction in the fight.

The Arizona law spells out that public records and other matters in the custody of any officers “shall be open to inspection by any person at all times during office hours.” Langhofer concedes that the Senate is a “public body” and lawmakers are “public officers” who, in any other circumstance, would be covered by the law. Only thing is, he said, they are not subject to it.

“The Arizona Constitution entrusts each house of the Legislature plenary power to order its own internal procedures and affairs,” Langhofer wrote. (read more)

President Trump Op-Ed on Divisive Critical Race Theory


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on June 19, 2021 | sundance | 57 Comments

President Donald J Trump has an op-ed in Real Clear Politics discussing the issues with Critical Race Theory, educational indoctrination and the key solutions to stop the divisive issues with the Marxist policy:

DONALD J TRUMP – “As a candidate, Joe Biden’s number one promise was to “unite” America. Yet in his first months as president, his number one priority has been to divide our country by race and gender at every turn.

There is no clearer example than the Biden administration’s new effort aimed at indoctrinating America’s schoolchildren with some of the most toxic and anti-American theories ever conceived. It is vital for Americans to understand what this initiative would do, what drives it and, most importantly, how we can stop it”. (READ MORE)

Pennsylvania Senate Chairman Says Election Audit a “very real possibility” as State Proposes Election Reform Legislation

Despite many people thinking an audit in Pennsylvania would be too difficult to initiate the State Senate Chairman of the Government Committee,  Dave Argall, has said an audit is “a very real possibility” after hearing from residents and constituents.

PENNSYLVANIA –  The Pennsylvania state Senate committee chair in charge of overseeing elections said a forensic audit was a “very real possibility” Thursday after meeting with activists Wednesday.

Senate State Government Committee Chairman Dave Argall, R-Schuylkill, told the Capital-Star that he was considering subpoenas for ballot information, but had not considered which jurisdictions would be subpoenaed yet.  “There are a lot of things under consideration right now, and I told them to check back in a week or two and we hope to have some more detail,” Argall told the Capital-Star of the meeting.

This will not please U.S. Attorney Merrick Garland who has announced his intention to double the number of lawyers in the DOJ Civil Rights Division (hired from Lawfare ranks) to fight any effort to reveal election fraud.
