This Hunter Biden is bad crap came from Russia and the FSB



A New Report Adds Evidence That Trump Was a Russian Asset
He helped Putin manipulate the U.S. election in 2020, as he did in 2016.


Attacks on Biden and his son, Hunter, were part of this operation. Through “US officials and prominent US individuals, some of whom were close to former President Trump and his administration,” the report says Russia’s intelligence services “repeatedly spread unsubstantiated or misleading claims about President Biden and his family’s alleged wrongdoing related to Ukraine.” In this way, Trump’s circle “laundered” the Russian-planted stories, which were then recirculated—and promoted by Russia’s online proxies—as American news.

ATTN CBS: Mick Mulvaney's Niece Maggie Played Key Role in Rally Before Capitol Riot.

There is straight line between Mulvaney and the 1/6/21 attempted coup aka "Stop the Steal."
*******
Records show that Maggie Mulvaney, the niece of former Acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney, played a key role in the "Save America Rally" on January 6 that occurred prior to President Donald Trump's supporters storming the U.S. Capitol.

Trump has been accused of inciting the Capitol riot with a speech to supporters of the rally held at the Ellipse. During the event, which was organized by the nonprofit Women for America First, the president urged his followers to "fight much harder" and walk down to the Capitol amid his baseless allegations of election fraud.

Violent pro-Trump rioters broke into the Capitol building hours later, forcing lawmakers to evacuate. The siege left five dead, including a police officer.

Maggie Mulvaney was listed as a "VIP Lead" in a Park Service permit granted for the event, according to an Associated Press review of records.

11/24/21 Jan. 6 organizers used burner phones to communicate with White House

TFG 3/28/22:

In a statement Monday night, Trump said, "I have no idea what a burner phone is, to the best of
my knowledge I have never even heard the term."

Multiple sources told Rolling Stone that Kylie Kremer, an organizer for the rally that took place at D.C.'s Ellipse park, had an aide buy three burner phones a few days before Jan. 6. Kremer said that it was "of the utmost importance" that the phones be purchased with cash, one source, who was a member of the March for Trump team, told the magazine.

According to Rolling Stone, the phones were used to communicate with high-ranking members of Trump's inner circle, including his son Eric Trump, daughter-in-law and former campaign official Lara Trump, former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows and former Trump surrogate Katrina Pierson.

Speaking of when Kylie Kremer bought the phones, the March for Trump member said, “That was when the planning for the event on the Ellipse was happening, she needed burner phones in order to communicate with high-level people is how she put it."

Rolling Stone reported last month that Trump White House officials and many of his GOP allies had been involved in the planning of the Jan. 6 rally, including Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (Ga.), Paul Gosar (Ariz.), Lauren Boebert (Colo.), Mo Brooks (Ala.), Madison Cawthorn (N.C.), Andy Biggs (Ariz.) and Louie Gohmert (Texas.).

Why isn't "this stuff" from the Jan. 6th committee on CNN right now?

Liberal Media

Peter Navarro & Dan Scavino were "right there" in supporting and organizing the 1/6/21 coup.

It is shameful that they aren't covering this hearing.

On Joe Biden's, "Vlad must go." comment. At the end of WW II we didn't let Hitler stay in power.

I'm sure it was a comment for the Russian people and the military but he spoke the truth. Vlad Putin is
a butcher who has killed @ least 50,000 people in Ukraine and he has been in an undeclared war on the
United States and other western democracies for years (some of the same people worked in both Brexit
and helping the Trump Campaign).

Anybody who caused this woman's hurt needs to die. Besides he has been running Russia as an organized
crime operation and stealing the Russian people's money and resources for years.

Marsha Blackburn mistook the Constitution for the Declaration of Independence

During the Senate confirmation hearings for Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson — President Joe Biden's nominee to replace the retiring Justice Stephen Breyer on the U.S. Supreme Court — Sen. Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee has resorted to nonstop buffoonery while playing the culture war card. And the GOP senator was clearly pandering to far-right evangelical voters when, on March 23, she tweeted, "The Constitution grants us rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness — not abortions."

But as Blackburn's critics are pointing out, "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" is not mentioned in the U.S. Constitution. It's in the Declaration of Independence.
