President Trump may want to replace “YMCA” as the closing song for his rallies with Bachman Turner Overdrive’s “You Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet.”

Joe Biden has gone into hiding for the next four days (“to prepare for the debate”) as the social media censorship of information on Hunter Biden’s hard drive fails to force it down the memory hole.  So massive is the cache of information on corruption that daily updates in digestible bites that build toward public rejection of putting Joe Biden in the Oval Office is the strategy that makes most sense.

We can safely speculate that that’s exactly how it will play out now that we know that Steve Bannon was given a copy of the hard drive and is orchestrating the roll-out in collaboration with Rudy Giuliani.  Bannon himself confirmed this in an interview with Revolver:

Steve Bannon has since clarified to Revolver News that he was brought into the project based on familiarity with corruption in corporate America, on Wall Street, and within the Chinese Communist Party and America’s political class. Mr. Bannon revealed that he “worked up and executed the roll out plan” of the information contained in the Hunter hard drives. Given his close knowledge and familiarity with an issue of such explosive importance to the election, Revolver asked Mr. Bannon a few questions pertaining to the contents of Hunter’s hard drive and the political implications of their release.

Revolver: What is the most incriminating thing on the hard drive? Rudy has suggested illegal things, and as Revolver reported, the FBI person tasked with the hard drive is associated with the child pornography division. Could you give more insight into how bad it is we’re talking about?

Mr. Bannon: Joe Biden is a liar, a fraud, and compromised by Chinese cash. In short, he is a national security crisis. The hard drive combines emails and text messages that show a massive involvement with companies controlled by the Chinese Communist Party. Also, there are 25,000 images that show a drug-addled, depraved lifestyle — one that decent hardworking Americans will not want near the White House.

There is much more.  Read the whole thing.

Rudy Giuliani, for his part, did a complete hour-long interview with Mark Levin yesterday, whose first airing was regrettably mostly missed due to live coverage of President Trump’s Carson City rally.  The program was rebroadcast, and the entire show, minus commercials, is embedded below.  At about 44 minutes, it is well worth your time.  Rudy provides details of the way the repair shop–owner came to possess the MacBook and turn it over to the FBI, which sat on it even as President Trump was impeached.  His outrage over the suppression of evidence relevant to driving the POTUS out of office led him to make copies, because he feared for his life, and get them to Rudy.  Must-see TV, and deep thanks to Mark for bringing this to us.

As for the “drug-addled, depraved lifestyle” that Bannon mentions, perhaps the most explosive element of the entire hard drive databank will be what is claimed to be pictures of Hunter engaging in sex with minors, taken during a visit to China, and providing the Chinese Communist Party the ability to blackmail and control  the Biden family with the specter of long prison terms for Hunter.  Wayne Allen Root is tweeting on it, claiming he has a highest level source:

To be sure, this is still not confirmed.  But it does appear that the FBI first turned the hard drive over to Joshua Wilson, a specialist in child pornography, whosesignature on the subpoena to the repair store owner is faintly visible.  And then, the hard drive disappeared into the bowels of the FBI.

If the social media and MSM grandees think they can keep this bottled up, they are mistaken.

During a free-speech rally in San Francisco, Black free speech activist Philip Anderson was attacked by Antifa and Black Lives Matter supporters as he protested outside the headquarters of Twitter. The incident resulted in Anderson having his two front teeth knocked out.

After having his teeth knocked out, Twitter banned Anderson’s account from the network. Ironically, Anderson and his group were present at Twitter to protest censorship from the social media giant and its decision to censor the New York Post article about Hunter Biden’s emails and Joe Biden’s potential connection to Burisma energy company corruption. 

Witnesses confirmed that the attack, which took place on late Saturday afternoon, was unprovoked and that Anderson was singled out for his free-speech activism.

“Antifa attacked me for no reason. These people are racist terrorists,” wrote Anderson on Twitter.

In the past, Anderson had attended several rallies in an attempt to calm violent crowds and call on Antifa and BLM supporters to choose non-violence. As a free speech activist, he preaches open dialogue, peace, and non-violence.

After his teeth had been knocked out, Anderson spoke to a booing crowd of Black Lives Matter and Antifa rioters.

“You knocked a Black man’s teeth out. You knocked my teeth out. But you’re here saying Black lives matter. That makes no sense,” he said.

The event started as a free speech rally of a small group of Trump administration supporters who wanted to protest against censorship on Twitter and other social networks. The protest, held in front of Twitter HQ at United Nations Plaza, began at 1 p.m. but turned violent very quickly as more than a hundred Antifa and BLM protesters clashed with the “Team Save America” group.

No arrests have been made in the case but a GoFundMe has been set up in his name and raised nearly $28,000.

A day after the incident, White House Social Media Director Dan Scavino posted a video of Trump’s supporting skydivers descending from the clouds in California with the US flags and “Trump 2020” banners.

Anderson is far from the only activist who has been assaulted by Antifa as of late. Isabella DeLuca, a Trump supporter and the Outreach Director for the pro-Trump organization Republicans for National Renewal, was attacked and hospitalized by Black Lives Matter supporters and other far-left activists, according to National File. DeLuca was attending a rally to confirm Justice Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court and holding a Trump flag at the time of the attack.

Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage has weighed in on the viral video of a man ripping down the cross on a London church in broad daylight, warning Britain’s Christian culture is “under assault”.

The video shows the cross on the Chadwell Heath Baptist Church in east London being hauled down by a young man making no attempt to conceal his identity, despite the widespread acceptance of people wearing masks in public and the presence of several witnesses.

The Metropolitan Police say the fallen cross has been recovered and a male was arrested at the scene on suspicion of criminal damage. No mention was made of pursuing religiously-aggravated hate crime charges.

“We are a Christian country and our culture is under assault,” commented Farage, sharing the video on social media.

“Our archbishops are complaining about Brexit yet say nothing about the desecration of a London church,” he added.

The veteran Brexiteer was referring to a joint letter by leading Anglican clerics the Archbishop of York, Justin Welby, the Archbishop of York Stephen Cottrell, the Archbishop of Armagh, John McDowell, the Archbishop of Wales, John Davies, and the Primus of the Scottish Episcopal Church, Mark Strange, complaining about the Internal Market Bill which passed the House of Commons with a resounding majority and is currently before the unelected House of Lords.

The bill was drawn up after government ministers became concerned that the European Union intended to abuse measures in the Brexit Withdrawal Agreement (WA) to prevent food from being imported from Great Britain to the British province of Northern Ireland if, as looks increasingly likely, the ongoing Brexit-in-name-only “transition period” expires at the end of 2020 without a formal trade UK-EU trade agreement being struck.

The WA leaves Northern Ireland partly within the EU’s regulatory ambit in the event of a “No Deal”, in order to main the supposedly all-important open border between Northern Ireland and EU member-state the Republic of Ireland — but the British government did not anticipate that the EU would interpret this in such a way as to allow them to blockade the transport of food from one part of the United Kingdom to another.

Consequently, the Internal Market Bill is intended to give British government ministers the power to “disapply” elements of the WA if it is used in this way — a move the EU and its British apologists — including the increasingly politicised Church of England — have decried as a breach of international law.

“We believe this would create a disastrous precedent,” the Anglican clerics’ letter complains.

“If carefully negotiated terms are not honoured and laws can be ‘legally’ broken, on what foundations does our democracy stand?” they add, as though allowing the EU to control trade between different parts of the United Kingdom in order to uphold the sanctity of a foreign treaty would be more democratic than allowing Britain’s duly elected representatives amend or leave that treaty to uphold the national interest.

Former Brexit minister Steve Baker MP responded to the intervention by saying that he was “extremely disappointed that the archbishops are sowing disunity and division at a time when they could instead build up much-needed harmony in our nation,” adding: “I pray that the archbishops might be blessed with better legal advice. They would then realise the hysterics of various lawyers are not justified.”

Former Conservative Party leader Sir Iain Duncan Smith MP was far more cutting, remarking acidly:  “I hope this is not a distraction from the difficulties the Church of England has been in with the inquiry into Child Abuse, which reported back last week.

“I hope this is not an attempt at distraction from the Church of England’s own internal troubles.”

In Romford, a suburb of London, a Muslim immigrant climbed the roof of Chadwell Heath Baptist Church today. There he was busy trying to tear down one of the two large crosses. This is what several British patriotic groups claim on Facebook and also posted a video of the act.

Further background information is not known at this time, nor whether the man continued his work of destruction or was stopped by security forces. British media have not yet reported on the event.

Hunter Biden is a truly pathetic human being. He’s an addict who’s rolled in and out of rehab because of his serious drug and alcohol abuse. The recently released emails reveal a man with horrifically low self-esteem. They also indicate that his father pimped Hunter to foreign governments to act as a bag man for bribes. However, it’s possible to be both pathetic and evil. In this case, the evil may exist, not just because Hunter sold out his country, but also because there are increasingly credible rumors that Hunter’s hard drive holds child pornography.

The first reference to child pornography on Hunter’s hard drive came from Chanel Rion, of OAN. A day after the New York Post story broke, she tweeted that, having seen some of the contents on Hunter’s hard drive, there were disturbing indications that he is obsessed with underage girls:

If untrue, Rion’s assertion about “underage obsessions” is almost certainly a libelous statement, even though Hunter is a public figure. That means that Rion had better be darn certain she’s right to make that statement.

Several conservative news sites of possibly dubious reliability piled on, asserting that an unnamed whistleblower claims that there are videos showing Hunter sexually abusing underage Chinese girls. At this stage, these assertions are best ignored and I will not link to them.

Having said that, there is one serious piece of evidence suggesting that Hunter Biden’s computer does contain content involving underage sex. The FBI has had possession of the computer since December 2019. To the extent that it contains information about events in Ukraine, the FBI did nothing. Disappointingly, it failed in its obligation to report to the Trump administration and to Congress whether the information was legitimate, which would have ended the Ukraine Hoax, or was a misinformation scheme, which would have required national security efforts to shut it down.

Although the FBI failed on the Ukraine issue, one FBI agent acted on the information on the hard drive. Thus, an agent named Joshua Wilson served a subpoena on John Paul MacIsaac’s computer repair store.

That FBI agent’s name is intriguing. According to a March 2019 news story in the New Jersey Star-Ledger, an FBI agent named Joshua Wilson works in a “depraved world,” because he’s one of the agents fighting child pornography:

The pornography itself focuses mostly on prepubescent children, experts and investigators said. Collins reports that of the identified victims her clearinghouse sees again and again in images and videos, 76 percent are preteen or young teenagers who have yet to show physical signs of sexual maturation.

Among that 76 percent, one in 10 is an infant or toddler.

Meanwhile, the abuse seems to know no bounds.

“You are seeing babies having their diapers removed so they can be assaulted,” said Joshua Wilson, an FBI agent based in New Jersey who has spent nearly five years working full time on child pornography.

It’s entirely possible that there is more than one FBI agent named Joshua Wilson. That is, the Joshua Wilson on the subpoena is not necessarily the same Joshua Wilson who, as of a year-and-a-half ago, had spent nearly five years working the FBI’s child pornography beat.

However, in an interview with Maria Bartiromo on Sunday morning, Sen. Ron Johnson strongly implied that the subpoena did involve concerns about child pornography on the hard drive:

BARTIROMO: There is a further analysis of the subpoena’s handwriting and it suggests that the supobena was served by an FBI agent who, his name is Joshua Wilson. And over the last five years, he has been working on child pornography issues. Connect the dots. If an FBI agents is working on child pornography issues for five years, why is he subpoenaing the laptop of Hunter Biden? Is there a connection here? Should this suggest that there’s a child pornography issue hee on that laptop.

JOHNSON: Well, I think you just made the connection. Again, this is what the FBI I think has to come clean about this. This isn’t a standard investigation, where you know if the FBI doesn’t indict somebody that everything remains confidential. This is something that, as we were talking about, relates to national security.

Johnson is a bit cagey about the whole thing, but it’s notable that he doesn’t scoff at Bartiromo’s question. Instead, he says that it’s a legitimate question. That carries with it the implication that Johnson knows something.

It’s sad that we find it so believable that there may be child pornography on the Hunter hard drive. However, Hunter has led such a sleazy life – meth binges, hookers, impregnating a stripper, taking up with his brother’s widow – that it’s not a big step to imagine him sliding further into immorality. This is especially true if a government hostile to the U.S.’s interests (say, for example, China) wanted to compromise him so as to have a hold over his father.

We’ve learned from the Jeffrey Epstein affair that the very rich and powerful don’t feel that ordinary morality applies to them. That’s why this coming week should be interesting. It may prove that all the rumors are wrong. Alternatively, it could reveal that the man who was our former vice president and who is now the current Democrat presidential candidate has been engaged in dirty dealing, using as a go-between a son who lives in a world of unbelievable depravity.

If Kevin Krehan’s death meant anything at all, the man who did this should be punished in proportion. Kevn Krehan died in prison serving a 2 year sentence for leaving a strip of bacon on a mosque doorknob. Meanwhile…

He had a beautiful face and a beautiful name, Samuel Paty.A name and a face destroyed and cut off, literally, by an Islamist of Chechen origin, one of those that France has cultivated within its borders.

A high school teacher who believed in freedom, justice, equality and brotherhood and who died when a community of Islamic lunatics lay in ambush to behead him.

One moment. Crazy people? Lunatics? No, barbarian warriors who fulfill the great Quranic mandate to fight the infidels wherever they are, In Gaza as in Marseille, in London as in Oslo.

One day they attacked the Jews. Okay, they were “only” Jews … Then they killed the cartoonists. Okay, they were “only” cartoonists, and even provocateurs. Then they hit a priest in a small church in Normandy, cutting his throat. OK, he was “only” an old priest in a country that is no longer Christian, at a mass where there were only a handful of old women. Then they hit everyone, en masse: tourists, young people dancing, people celebrating July 14 … Then they hit inside the Paris Police headquarters.

Now they strike in the more common, open, ordinary side of the French Republic: an anonymous teacher, a father of a family, who wanted to teach his students about freedom of expression.

Which teacher will now want to explain about the Crusades, the Shoah, Israel, colonialism, the Judeo-Christian roots of Europe, freedom of speech, to their students?

The errorists are winning, step by step.

France, and this is the sad truth, is perhaps not recoverable. It’s too late. Metastasis is not curable.

Emmanuel Macron gave an important speech, he went in front of the school, he used harsh words, he is preparing a law against “Islamic separatism”. But is the French state really ready to defeat these enemies? And then, how many are there, out of an Islamic population of 6 million -. 6 million? Some say 9 million, because in France you can’t even know how many there are anymore.

Where do they nest? How many mosques should they close? How many people should they track, as if they are fighting an ideological Covid?

Perhaps France, and this is another sad truth, would be recoverable only by setting in motion a trial of its largest minority; driving out hundreds of radical imams; stopping foreign Islamic funds and banning the dignitaries of Middle Eastern regimes who set foot there and donate their money for mosques and Islamization; by ordering the army to enter the suburbs and clear out the Salafite cells. There is a shadow army that has 20,000 Frenchmen under the surveillance of its counter-terrorism units.

Can a Western democracy, which no longer believes in itself, which only believes in bistros and shopping, really win such a war?

Normally, scandals have no impact on elections or even public opinion. We saw that during the Clinton years with assorted sex, commodity futures and influence-peddling scandals, and worse still, in the great skating of the Obama administration, which spied on Americans, sicced the IRS on political dissidents, left a U.S. ambassador to die, and worst of all, tried to derail the next incumbent with a pile of Russian-generated chaos-inducing propaganda, a phonily premised impeachment, a string of riots, and a host of dirty political tricks. Water off a duck’s back. Nobody’s paid, and Joe Biden’s ahead in the polls. 

Scandals, it seems, excite the base of an opposing party, but they don’t sell among the broader electorate. They don’t affect elections. Or so the view would go of anyone who’s watched U.S. politics for the past 40 years.

But every once in awhile, there is one that takes off, changes the momentum. Watergate comes to mind. Now there’s Bidengate, exposed to great impact by the New York Post. A new poll shows it may just be having an effect:

Joe Biden’s polling edge over President Trump eroded this week amid The Post’s scandalous revelations about his son Hunter’s foreign dealings — but the Democratic candidate still maintains a substantial lead.

The IBD/TIPP national tracking poll, released Saturday, puts Biden at 50 percent in the head-to-head matchup, with Trump at 43 percent. The 7-point advantage is well outside the survey’s 3 percent margin of error.

But the poll of 1,009 likely voters saw Biden’s support slip by just over 2 percentage points since Monday — and found an increase of just under 1 percent for the incumbent.

The IBD/TIPP survey found strength for Biden among independent voters, who split their support between Trump and Democrat Hillary Clinton in 2016, but now back the challenger by a 9-percent margin.

The poll caught my attention because it is the IBD/TIPP poll, which is the best in the business. They have a consistent history of calling elections correctly by the closest margins. (Full disclosure: I used to write editorials for IBD). If they are seeing a slide, a cracking, a wall crumbling down, you can bet it’s happening.

And that it is really shouldn’t be surprising. I can think offhand of five reasons why.

One, they aren’t the result of triangulation, or reaching conclusions by a series of chained events, they are naked and raw, quid pro quo – pay me up front and get the introduction, pay me in advance. They couldn’t be any more direct. Much corruption moves through the system through a series of codes but this was the holy grail, completely admitted corruption straight from a laptop. They are real.

Two, Biden portrays himself to voters as Mr. Decent, Mr. Nice. He obeys mask rules, he comes from Scranton. This Hunter Biden scandal reveals a very different creature: Emails and text messages from Biden’s recovered hard drive, left abandoned in a Maryland computer repair shop, show a greedy, grasping, rapacious mafia-like godfather, demanding his fifty percent cut. They show a man willing to use his office to enrich family members to the tune of millions of dollars, with impunity the rule. The show a greedy, grasping family empire of bagmen who orbit around the man as he relishes power, following him from international post, to international post, black bag outstretched. They show pay-to-play on a humongous, national-security-breaking level, with access and influence sold on the back of public office supposedly there to represent the people, but in reality, representing House Biden. The stark contrast between Mr. Decent, and the scary underhanded ‘Big Guy’ under the computer surface, signals fraud, and voters don’t like fraud.

Three, the scandal has a name — Bidengate — and is describe-able in a sentence or two, a key ingredient in making a scandal stick: Hunter Biden, despite his dissolute drug- and stripper-addled background, followed his dad the vice president around, got paid tens of thousands, if not millions, for “introductions” and made himself a pile. What’s more, he hasn’t been punished for it, any more than the Clinton Foundation’s pay-to-play show was, and his acts will undoubtedly carry on if Biden is elected president. National Security will be for sale. And you can just hear the world’s dictators rubbing their hands together with delight at the prospect of an easy mark like Biden junior being available for whatever they need for a price. China, of course, has endorse Joe Biden. Wonder why.

Third, the Bidens are attempting to cover it up, bad. Joe flew off the handle at a reporter here:

…yet he still has not stated that the emails are fake. He knows they are not fake, there is too much proof — former White House advisor Steve Bannon says he has emails from Biden junior’s lawyer demanding to get the hard drive back and will release them if necessary.

That’s desperate, indeed. 

Fifth, there’s the insane behavior of Twitter and Facebook social media baronies, literally attempting to supress the story. One reason may be her:

Such a coincidence. 

The effort to repress the news has triggered congressional hearings which may break up the duopoly or force it to be regulated as an edited publication. More important. it’s draw attention to the story in a way it may not have done had they not put their hamfisted efforts to censor in the mix. Knowing that something is censored and forbidden makes many people more interested in reading the story. That’s very bad news for Joe Biden.

The bottom line from IBD/TIPP is that the scandal has been turning the polls away from Biden’s advantage. Nobody wants to vote in a corruptus maximus whose corruption will start on day one. This scandal may well prove to be Joe Biden’s undoing, and if so, that will be a good thing.
