Everybody Hates Mitch McConnell

Some Democrats now admit President Biden was probably involved in Hunter’s business dealings. But my thoughts keep going back to when Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell froze before the cameras.

Throw Hunter Biden’s Plea Deal in the Trash

Journal Editorial Report: The IRS agent's detailed list of abuses deserves an answer. Images: AP Composite: Mark KellySupervisory Special Agent Gary A. Shapley Jr ., a 14-year veteran of the Internal Revenue Service’s Criminal Investigation Division, sat on May 26 for hours of sworn and transcribed testimony with members of the majority and minority staffs of the House Ways and Means Committee. On June 1, an IRS criminal investigator who chose to remain anonymous did the same. These whistleblowers came forward because they believe that Attorney General Merrick Garland gave false assurances to Congress when he testified that he had empowered U.S. Attorney David Weiss with full authority to investigate Hunter Biden ’s alleged criminal activity and bring any resulting charges.

Joe Biden and the 51 Spies of 2020

Hunter Biden Photo: Patrick Semansky/Associated PressWhy is public trust in American institutions, including the press, in free fall? One reason is the revelation last week that the Biden for President campaign helped to organize the open letter that spread disinformation about Hunter Biden ’s famous laptop computer on Oct. 19, 2020. The House Judiciary and Intelligence committees released portions of a deposition transcript exposing the origins of the statement from 51 former U.S. spies declaring that Hunter’s laptop had “all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.” The admission came from Mike Morell , former deputy CIA director under Barack Obama . The letter served its political purpose of giving the media and Joe Biden the opening to dismiss the New York Post’s laptop scoop as Russian disinformation. (The letter and the names of the 51 signers can be read nearby.)
