This post deserves a special front and center place to show
just how awful this “new” Trump owned and operated GOP has become.
I originally linked the AP story below here on July 21, but after more
thought and consideration since, I have decided to make it stand alone as we head
into the 2024 election season full steam to be the worse in our political
history even worse than 2020, even if that’s possible especially with the
various harsh GOP voter suppression tactics in key states (e.g., NC is a great example)
makes that entirely possible.
The below article is outstanding and the GOP players
mentioned inside it deserve a closer look at least in my opinion to see how
awful they truly are.
NOTE: I highlight and or box off the key parts.
The AP story and their headline:
“Grassley releases full FBI memo with unverified claims about Hunter
Biden’s work in Ukraine”
By Lisa Mascaro (Published July 20, 2023)
WASHINGTON (AP) —
Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) released an unclassified document that
Republicans claim is significant in their investigation of Hunter Biden as they
delve into the financial affairs of the president and his son, and revive previously debunked claims of wrongdoing.
Grassley has been working alongside House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) as
Republicans deepen their probe of President Biden and his son, Hunter, ahead of
the 2024 election.
The FBI form FD-1023 involves claims from a FBI confidential informant (CI) made in 2020 from Comer who had issued a subpoena for the document from the FBI.
While
lawmakers on the Oversight Committee have already been able to partly review the information, this
is the first time from the full document — which contains raw, unverified
information.
The CI alleges corrupt Hunter Biden business deals while serving
on the board of Burisma in Ukraine.
Republicans
have acknowledged they cannot confirm whether the information is true or not.
The document adds to information that had widely aired
during Trump’s first impeachment trial, which involved Trump
attorney Rudy Giuliani’s efforts to dig up dirt on the Biden’s ahead of the
2020 election.
It was also the subject of a subsequent DOJ review that Trump AG Barr launched in 2020 and
closed later that year. Grassley’s office
said the FBI told the senator the document was related to an ongoing matter.
Great retort from White House spokesman Ian Sams: “It is remarkable
that congressional Republicans, in their eagerness to go after
President Biden regardless of the truth, continue to push claims that have been
debunked for years. These claims have reportedly been
scrutinized by the Trump Justice Department, a Trump-appointed U.S. Attorney,
and a full impeachment trial of the former President that centered on these
very issues, and over and over again, they have been
found to lack credibility. It’s clear that congressional Republicans are dead-set on playing shameless, dishonest
politics and refuse to let truth get in the way.”
Sen. Grassley’s responded to the criticism about his newly-released
document saying: “The American people can
now read this document for themselves.”
My 2 Cents: I hope you
enjoyed this rundown on the sustained craziness of this GOP-run house and their
silly committees constantly after the Biden’s – that’s going nowhere fast after
each hearing that show no shame nor regret.
Their goal is to work to get
Trump back into the White House for his one-man rule dream and their rewards
from him.
Trump's aim is simple: (1) to take over the entire government; (2) to pardon
himself and everyone involved in January 6, (3) to go after and jail all his opponents;
and (4) to cancel the DOJ and FBI and other key Federal departments thus crowning himself: “Emperor Donald the 47th.”
Again, this is not
hyperbole – it comes from Trump’s own words in various public speeches and now
are part of his ongoing plan with key players behind the scenes putting it
together.
Those working on the plan are listed in this post with this subject line: Trump
& GOP plan is called “Project 2025” — it’s their post 2024 election scheme
to install Trump as America’s 1st Despot.
Trump’s own words, past actions, crimes, indictments, and now his future plans being worked on should be a wakeup call for every American regardless of their political views or persuasion.
Thanks for stopping by.
