Is Joe Biden a presidential candidate or the godfather of a mafia-style crime family?

It looks like the latter, based on the latest revelations from Hunter Biden’s abandoned MacBook Pro computer, which at this point has so many damning revelations coming from it it’s starting to remind me of the captured FARC computer of 2007.  

The latest emails reveal a man obsessed with getting his payment cut for “introductions” to people like his dad, not just with the Ukrainians, but the Chinese, to the tune of tens of thousands, if not millions of dollars.

Hunter in fact drove a hard bargain for his “introductions” to his father and perhaps others in the Obama administration and the cash rolled in. And American foreign policy became quite the object out there for sale. Imagine this machine scarfing up cash, and combine it with the Clinton and maybe Obama poltical machines also scarfing up cash from third world satraps eager for an audience.

More ominous still, the cash wasn’t all for Hunter. Joe Biden apparently got some, quite a director’s cut really, making Hunter Biden look like a cog in a family syndicate, the hapless, schlemiel-like Fredo in the operation …  who answers to “the Big Guy.”

John Hinderaker at Power Line notes this:

Today the Post featured a story even more explosive than the one Twitter and Facebook tried to suppress yesterday:

Hunter Biden pursued lucrative deals involving China’s largest private energy company — including one that he said would be “interesting for me and my family,” emails obtained by The Post show.

One email sent to Biden on May 13, 2017, with the subject line “Expectations,” included details of “remuneration packages” for six people involved in an unspecified business venture.

The emails indicate that Hunter was to receive an annual salary of $850,000. Somewhere on the planet there is a greedier person than Hunter Biden, but you would have to look hard to find him. But of course, no one cared then, or now, about Hunter.

In addition, the email outlined a “provisional agreement” under which 80 percent of the “equity,” or shares in the new company, would be split equally among four people whose initials correspond to the sender and three recipients, with “H” apparently referring to Biden.

So Joe Biden was “the big guy”? This is looking shadier and seedier by the minute. Who knew a corrupt old fool like Joe Biden could be “the big guy” in a crime syndicate? The arrangements described speak of ten percent, which is a running joke in the third world, and has been for years.

According to New York Times correspondent Keith Richland, in his book on third world corruption, “Out of America,” ten percent has quite a few connotations:

So endemic is African corruption–and so much more destructive than its Asian counterpart–that the comparison has even spawned a common joke that goes like this:

     An Asian and an African become friends while they are both attending graduate school in the West. Years later, they rise to become the finance minister of their respective countries. One day, the African ventures to Asia to visit his old friend, and is startled by the Asian’s palatial home, the three Mercedes-Benzes in the circular drive, the swimming pool, the servants.

    “My God!” the African exclaims. “We were just poor students before. How on earth can you afford all this?”

    And the Asian takes his African friend to the window and points to a sparkling new elevated highway in the distance. “You see that toll road?” says the Asian, and then he proudly taps himself on the chest. “Ten percent.” And the African nods approvingly.

    A few years later, the Asian ventures to Africa, to return the visit to his old friend. He finds the African living in a massive estate, sprawling over several acres. There’s a fleet of dozens of Mercedes-Benzes in the driveway, an indoor pool and tennis courts, an army of uniformed chauffeurs and servants. “My God!” says the Asian. “How on earth do you afford all this?”

    This time, the African takes his Asian friend to the window and points. “You see that highway?” he asks. But the Asian looks and sees nothing, just an open field with a few cows grazing.

    “I don’t see any highway,” the Asian says, straining his eyes.

    At this, the African smiles, taps himself on the chest, and boasts: “One hundred percent.”

 So Joe, according to these documents was Mr. Ten Percent, too, same as the third world corruptocrats, but he got even greedier as time went by.

With Fredo-like dolor, Hunter Biden wrote this:

“I love you all but I don’t receive any respect and that’s fine I guess. Works for you apparently. I hope you all can do what I did, and pay for everything for this entire family for 30 years. It’s really hard but don’t worry, unlike Pop, I won’t make you give me half your salary.”

Apparently he moved towards the African satrap’s style, and became Mr. Fifty Percent based on this email. Which certainly would explain why Biden’s political record resembles that of the African satrap, in that like the African satrap, nothing got done in Joe’s 47 years in politics, either — except of course the family-business pocket-lining. 

This corruption runs like a spider web, with Joe at the center of it, Fredo his hapless pawn, whimpering to his sister. The big guy always gets his cut, see, and not a thing Fredo can do about it.

One only hopes that this is a watershed event that will turn the voter tide toward Trump, whose family has no such history. What this shows is that a Biden presidency, with the White House for sale, would be actually rather dangerous, with the U.S. becoming more and more like an African dictatorship than a place of rule of law, should Joe Biden ever become president.

And the mafia comparisons don’t stop there. All godfathers have jealous rivals, and so does “the big guy,” surrounded as he is by ambitious and venomous wasps like Kamala Harris circling him and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi talking about re-setting transitions of power. Like a mafia don, he’d better hire a food taster, because guys like this have been known to get rubbed out.

In the meantime, President Trump should do all he can to make Biden’s family nickname stick. Trump calling him “the big guy” sounds like just the thing to make Joe Biden squirm.

Evidently Hunter Biden is a chip off the old block.

One America News Network reporter Chanel Rion tweeted out on Thursday that she has seen video of Hunter Biden that was on the computer that he left at a computer shop in 2019.

And, according to Rion, “Hunter makes Anthony Weiner’s down under selfie addiction look normal.”

That says a lot! Considering Democrat star Anthony Weiner was hitting on young girls on social media.

An 18-year-old suspected jihadist has been arrested in Cologne, Germany, on suspicion of terrorism. Apart from the Holy War, however, he apparently had other – more secular – preferences.

Yesterday, Thursday, at about 6 a. m., State Security officials, in possession of an arrest warrant, rang the doorbell of the 18-year-old’s flat in the Cologne district of Poll to arrest him. The perpetrator is accused of having used internet chats to urge young girls to blow themselves up in the name of the IS (Islamic State). He is also alleged to have advertised in social networks for other members of the “Caliphate Brigades”.The magazine “Focus” reports that in the course of the house search, the officers confiscated a knife and a machete as well as computers and data carriers.It is further reported that the suspect’s mobile phone was also found containing data indicating child pornography. For example, the Islamist perpetrator is said to have persuaded schoolgirls, some of whom were only 12 years old, to perform sexual acts and to send him the recordings. He then threatened to publish the recordings on the Internet if the police were involved. Therefore, the investigators are apparently not yet really sure to what extent they are dealing with a jihadist or a criminal pedophile.

Hamid Zafar has long been celebrated in Sweden as a prime example of successful integration. The native Afghan was even named “Sweden of the Year”. But on the net, the Muslim showed his true colours.The unanimous reputation of Hamid Zafar, who was named ” Swede of the Year” in 2018, seems to have dimmed. For years, the Afghan, celebrated as a symbol of integration, is said to have used the Internet to incite hatred against Jews and homosexuals.The reports of Zafar’s alleged double life have since caused consternation in the Swedish media. The Afghan is known nationwide and has been working for the integration of young people with a migration background at various levels for several years. Hamid Zafar was also appointed as an expert on extremist Islam, while Zafar showed his true colours under the supposed protection of anonymity. “Zionist donkey” or “Zionist dog” were expressions he had used on a Twitter account.When he argued with a former member of the Social Democratic Party in the Swedish Parliament about the attack committed by Breivik, he is said to have written to the politician: “Will we see you begging and praying on your poor Jewish knees?To spread his crude theories on the net, the “Swede of the Year” used several pseudonyms. The Muslim is also said to have run his own blogs, in which against Jews and homosexuals were incited. He also accused the Swedish church there of being steeped in ” sodomy”. Strangely enough, Zafar himself used to work as a teacher of religion.The revealings of the Swedish media were not without consequences for Hamid Zafar. Several contracts were terminated and a TV appearance with him that had already been planned was cancelled.

Facebook and Twitter sacrificed the final shreds of their integrity to try to censor the N.Y. Post article revealing the existence of Hunter Biden’s laptop.  But in their rush to throw themselves in the path of the bullet to save Joe, there was a big problem.  They forgot that Rudy Giuliani has the evidence.

The N.Y. Post article was an exclusive.  That means all “fact checkers” that Facebook and Twitter will unleash to fact-check the article will be based on speculation, not fact.  Because they don’t have the laptop.

And, judging from a new video from Giuliani, things may be about to explode in the social media giants’ faces.

If just a quarter of what Rudy Giuliani alleges is true, the evidence contained on the laptop is, finally, the true smoking gun.  This isn’t some salacious accusations bundled by a hired spy relying on Russian disinformation and gossip.  It’s Hunter’s own laptop.  That fact alone could be an enormous blow to the Biden campaign.

Giuliani released bombshell after bombshell in a video released Wednesday evening after the media did their best to censor the N.Y. Post article — making the social media censorship even more damning to those who tried to hide it from the public.  Since receiving the copy of the hard drive, Giuliani has been poring through it, carefully documenting and preparing his prosecution.  What he says he found is the actual evidence of payments, the money-laundering scheme they used, “illegal money for bribes,” and how “some of that money from Ukraine … went to Joe Biden.”

Like a prosecutor laying out the case, Giuliani leads off the video with this: “In future days, you will see texts, emails, and photos that demonstrate crimes committed by the Biden crime family — in China (probably most of all), Russia, and several other countries.”

The use of “the Biden crime family” is no mere hyperbole.  Before Rudy Giuliani was “America’s Mayor,” he was one of America’s top prosecutors, which included bringing down mafia crime families.  And he has evidence — from Hunter — that implicates not only Hunter and Joe Biden, but also James (Joe’s brother) and Sara (James’s wife).  One set of payments from China went to a triad of Bidens: James, Hunter, and Sara.  Don’t worry, Giuliani says — you’re going to see it in the texts, not making it up.

The fact he was one of America’s top prosecutors makes the ending of the video even more damning: “I’ve been in this business a long time.  This is the biggest cover-up I have ever seen.  And it is the biggest government scandal, I’ve ever heard of.”

Getting back to the beginning, Giuliani continued his introduction, saying, “China has all of the photos that we have — which means [Hunter] is, really, a massive national security threat to the United States.  Since his father lies — about all of this — it’s an easy area of extortion.”

Believe it or not, it gets worse from there for Joe Biden.

Laying out the case further, Giuliani points right at the defendant, accusing Joe of “certainly [committing] a crime.  Because some of that money from Ukraine, illegal money for bribes, went to Joe Biden.”

Remember: these are all accusations after Giuliani has read through the emails, the texts, and the contents of the hard drive.  Unlike the Facebook/Twitter “fact-checker” minions, Giuliani has seen the evidence.

In one of the more damning statements, he says, “China has so many different transactions, it’s going to take a couple of days, if not a week, for us to sort all through them.  But we have them.  … And, basically, this is money that goes to Hunter Biden, James Biden, Sara Biden…and the Biden family.”

He also has evidence of how the money flowed — thanks to a text from Hunter Biden to his daughter, Naomi, that was found on the hard drive.  Giuliani says the text was discussing money, “but in it, [Hunter] makes a very big mistake.  He explains the distribution scheme that the Biden crime family has used for years.”

The text reads, “I love you all, but I don’t receive any respect.  And that’s fine, I guess.  Works for you apparently.  I hope you all can do what I did and pay for everything for this entire family for 30 years.”

Giuliani interrupts his reading of the text to wonder why Hunter was paying for everything for the family.  Because, Giuliani speculates, Hunter was getting the money, and they were keeping it, from Joe, so he wouldn’t have to report it.  But he paid, for example, for his half-sister’s entire college education.

Giuliani then returns to the text for the coup de grâce: “It’s really hard.  But don’t worry unlike Pop, I won’t make you give me half your salary.”

“Pop” is Hunter’s name for his dad, Joe Biden.

All of this is really just Rudy’s opening statement.  If the evidence about to be rolled out is even remotely on par with his opening statement, it will be beyond explosive, given the source: Hunter’s own laptop.

Will the censorship hit new heights?  Or will the media do what they should have been doing for the last four years — investigate the real crime that has been in plain sight all this time?

The full, 16-minute video can be found on Rudy Giuliani’s Common Sense Podcast Channel on YouTube.

The man suspected of murdering 18-year-old Victorine Dartois has allegedly confessed to having strangled the young girl to death before attempting to rape her in the commune of Villefontaine, not far from Lyon, at the end of September.

The 25-year-old suspect, identified as Ludovic Bertin, who has ten previous convictions and happens to be the father of a family, was arrested by the Intervention Group of the National Gendarmerie (GIGN) on Tuesday afternoon as a part of the investigation into the murder of teenage girl, Le Point reports.

According to the deputy prosecutor of Grenoble, Bertin has been charged with kidnapping, murder and attempted rape.

Victorine Dartois went missing on the evening of Saturday, Sept. 26, after an afternoon of shopping with her friends, while she had been walking back to her family’s home. She’s believed to have disappeared near a stadium next to a wooded area sometime shortly after she phoned her family at 6:50pm, telling them that she would be back home in 20 minutes.

Two days later, the young girl’s lifeless body was discovered in a stream in Villefontaine, in the French department of Isère. In the three weeks that followed, 47 investigators heard from 130 witnesses and contacted 662 people before they were finally able to identify the alleged perpetrator of the horrific crime. Once identified, Bertin was subsequently arrested at his home in the Fougères district of Villefontaine – approximately five minutes by car from the home of Victorine’s parents.

During a press conference on Wednesday afternoon, Kelly Monteiro, the lawyer for the young girl’s family, said that the suspect was “not close to the victim and that his identity was not yet known.

According to Le Parisien, police say that Bertin confessed that he murdered Victorine after they became involved in a heated argument while he saw her out jogging. While he denies a sexual motive, police say there is evidence he attempted to rape her before her murder.

The autopsy showed that Victorine died by drowning, but there were bruises that were tied to direct strangulation. Bertin, who has been indicted, confessed to having “grabbed” the victim twice by the neck during her murder.

On Bertin’s Facebook page, which features a pseudonym, he says he is the “chief executive officer” at Louis Vuitton and claims to have studied at Harvard.

The suspect is due to appear in court on Thursday over the charges in the case. He has previous convictions for possession of a weapon, theft, and property destruction. He was convicted twice for breaking into homes in Lyon in 2017 and 2018.

The case has drawn widespread media attention in France and featured 6,000 people marching to protest violence against women in France on Oct. 4. The march reportedly passed past Bertin’s house, although the marchers were unaware of it at the time. 

Violent crime statistics, which were collected by the France’s Interior Ministry’s statistics service SSMI and released earlier this year, revealed a marked increase in violent crimes across all French regions in 2019, with a 12 percent rise in sex crimes and an 8.5 percent in murders, the French newspaper Le Figaro reported.

In its report the SSMI stated: “All French regions have experienced increases in the number of rapes, assaults, and sexual harassment recorded by the security forces in 2019, notably Corsica, Centre-Val-de-Loire, Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes, and Nouvelle-Aquitaine.”

Since the migrant crisis of 2015, the female population in France and other western European countries have become increasingly unsafe. Under Emmanuel Macron’s presidency, the situation in France has become even worse.

On Wednesday, Remix News reported on a French women who, in late September, used her mobile phone to record video footage of a foreign man sexually assaulting her on a train. The victim, who then posted the video recording to Facebook along with a message where she urged the French state to “take care of its girls”, then had her video censored by Facebook for supposedly violating the Community Standards for Sexual Acts.

Late last month, a 23-year-old Strasbourg student had sexual insults hurled at her and was punched in the face by three men in their twenties for wearing a skirt. After posting a video of her injuries to social media, the case garnered worldwide attention, as it highlighted the worsening problem of sexual harassment and violence against women in France.
