Biden lying like the pathological liar that he

Rattrapper said...

The Biden Crime Clan set themselves on the path to destruction with their own foolish decisions. All of them except for the youngest granddaughter set themselves up for failure and their demise.

I hope Navy breaks away and breaks the Biden family curse inflicted upon the rest of the Biden Crime Clan.

The Democratic party of today is not the same party that was here when John F. Kennedy was president. It has gone totally off the rails and become a leftwing, radical party more attuned with the Communist party. They do not support the principles of America or the American people.. Yesterday’s party did not have the same Idiots that we have today, such as Chuck Schumer, Jefferies, Booger, Piglosy, AOC, and the rest of those IDIOTS.

Attorney General Bondi orders prosecutors to start grand jury probe into Obama and his Lousy Bunch of Snakes, Obama and his officials over the Russia Collusion investigation

You miss them?

Dervish Sanders said...

The "Biden Crime Clan" is imaginary. The trump crime Klan (verified with serious investigations and convictions) belongs behind bars.

Dervish Sanders said...

So what? As per Minus FJ she answers to Jeff Sessions. Given that Jeff is "deep state", he will surely veto this probe.

🧠 Why These Allegations May Fizzle...

1. No Clear Falsehoods Identified.

So far, there’s no publicly available evidence showing that Brennan, Comey, Clinton, or others made knowingly false statements under oath.

Much of their testimony has been consistent with the findings of multiple investigations, including the Mueller Report and the bipartisan Senate Intelligence Committee report.

2. Ambiguity vs. Perjury.

Discrepancies or differing interpretations of intelligence are not the same as lying.

To prove a violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1001, prosecutors must show:

The statement was material.

The person knew it was false.

The person intended to deceive.

That’s a high bar, especially when dealing with complex intelligence assessments and classified materials.

3. Durham’s Own Findings.

Even John Durham’s final report—while critical of the FBI—did not recommend charges for lying to Congress.

He interviewed Brennan, Clinton, and others, and found no prosecutable false statements.

4. Political Optics vs. Legal Substance.

This grand jury may be more about symbolic accountability than actual indictments.

It’s possible the goal is to create a narrative of wrongdoing, even if no charges stick.

🧩 The Real Puzzle.

If no lies were told, then the grand jury risks becoming a political theater, not a legal reckoning. And if it hinges on reinterpretations of testimony years after the fact, it may collapse under scrutiny.

[via Copilot]

Copilot says the charges "may fizzle", but I say they will definitely 100 percent fizzle. There will be no convictions re the "RussiaGate Hoax". The reason being that it wasn't a hoax. donald trump's campaign has been confirmed to have colluded with Russia.

Pam's grand jury won't charge anyone. There are no crimes anyone can be charged with. btw, I mean Pam Bondi, not Pam your wife.

🚨 BREAKING: Gavin Newsom LAUNDERED MILLIONS Through His Own Wife — And Used YOUR Tax Dollars to Do It.

This is real corruption.

Back in 2019, California Governor Gavin Newsom created a brand-new taxpayer-funded government office — out of thin air — called “The Office of the First Partner.” Not “First Lady.” Not “Spouse of the Governor.” No — “Partner.” Because, you know, woke.

But here’s the kicker: this office didn’t serve California’s people. It didn’t improve education, lower crime, reduce homelessness, or help struggling families.

Nope.

It just existed… to give Gavin’s wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, a government salary.

And not just a salary. Through shady budget allocations and backdoor deals, Newsom funneled over $5 million in taxpayer funds to bankroll Jennifer’s pet projects, private ventures, and personal branding campaigns.

Let THAT Sink In.

This was a fake government office, made up for his wife, to funnel millions to her. Funded by you.

Meanwhile, California’s cities are crumbling. Homeless encampments have turned once-great towns into tent-filled drug dens. The middle class is fleeing the state in record numbers. Gas prices and taxes are sky high. Crime is exploding. Businesses are shutting down. Families are struggling.

And yet Gavin Newsom — the man who loves to preach about equity, fairness, and “protecting democracy” — is out here stuffing his own family’s pockets with public money.

This is classic political corruption.

It’s the kind of scheme you’d expect from a third-world dictatorship — not the golden state of California.

And the media? Silent.

Because Gavin Newsom isn’t just the Governor. He’s the Left’s chosen one. Their back-up plan if Biden falters. Their golden boy for 2028. So no hard questions. No primetime exposés. No accountability.

Imagine for a moment if a Republican governor — let’s say Ron DeSantis or Greg Abbott — had made up a fake government office, staffed it with his wife, and funneled $5 million in public funds directly to her private film projects.

You think CNN would ignore that?

You think The New York Times wouldn’t have it on the front page?

You think MSNBC wouldn’t spend 24 hours crying about fascism, nepotism, and fraud?

But when it’s Newsom? Crickets.

Here’s the truth: the Left doesn’t care about corruption unless they can use it to attack conservatives. They don’t care about democracy unless they’re losing power. And they don’t care about accountability — unless it’s aimed at their enemies.

Gavin Newsom used the power of government to enrich his own household.

That’s not leadership. That’s lBING CROOKED
And if Democrats truly believed in “following the money,” they’d be the ones leading the investigation.

But they won’t.

So we will.

Minus: Nothing's going to fizzle. Hillary's going to jail. :)

Depending on what is presented to the grand jury, there could be charges. But there will not be any convictions. Hillary Clinton will not go to prison. donald trump was the one facing the real possibility of prison time. Which he got out of by being "elected" president a second time. The trump campaign colluded with Russia, as documented in the bipartisan intelligence committee report. The facts it contains has not been "mischaracterized" by Democrats. They facts in the report clearly document collusion that took place with donald trump's knowledge. Mueller, an institutionalist and republican, simply didn't have the guts to call it out definitively. This was the very reason Rod Rosenstein selected him.

Copilot: 🧠 The Legal vs. the Narrative Divide This is where your frustration resonates. The legal bar for conspiracy is high, and Mueller was bound by DOJ guidelines and prosecutorial caution. But the counterintelligence implications—whether Trump associates were compromised, manipulated, or simply reckless—are arguably more disturbing, and Mueller didn’t fully explore those in his public report.

Some experts argue that Mueller’s institutionalism and reluctance to push boundaries led to a report that was rich in facts but timid in conclusions. Others believe he was boxed in by political pressure and the Justice Department’s rule against indicting a sitting president. [end]

Your comment "nothing's going to fizzle" is accurate in that there is NOTHING to the "treason" or "mischaracterization" accusations. You're betting that your NOTHING won't fizzle. I say it will. You're hoping for a corrupt judge to hear the cases? Or are you sure that Hillary Clinton will be "randomly assigned" a corrupt trump-friendly judge and be convicted, then also lose her appeal?

I suppose that's not completely impossible, but it is highly unlikely. That's just a fact. Given that there is no case against Hillary Clinton and any conviction would have to be due to the judge being corrupt. As was the case with Aileen Cannon, who corruptly dismissed the classified documents case against trump. Though that case would have been appealed had donald not be "elected" president a second time.

Gavin Newsom is facing allegations because of the potential he could run for president. donald trump is the most corrupt president in United States history by a factor of at least 100. And republican don't care. Why should I care about this alleged Gavin Newsom corruption? Get back to me when he's charged.

Joe Conservative said...

It's ironic, huh. The classified documents that the Feds were trying to seize from Mar-a-Lago were in a burn bag at FBI HQ, and will be used to convict the entire Conspiracy team of Brenan, Clapper, Hillary, Obama, and Comey. I love it when a plan comes together...

Les Carpenter said...

I will believe absolutely nothing coming out of MAGAland until a CREDIBLE source OTHER THAN the lying FOTUS's corrupt administration OR the trumpublican party confirms it.

The Prophet Dervish Z Sanders said...

That won't happen.

You need to start making donations to their prison commissary funds.
