GW law professor Turley at the impeachment hearing:

There's been a repeated statement that you need to show that the President Biden accepted direct money in order for this to constitute a benefit even under under criminal cases that deal with bribery, extortion and Hobbs Act.

The courts actually have rejected that. They've said that money going to family members is in fact a benefit.

This idea that you can have millions going to a politician's family and that's not a benefit, I think is pretty fallacious

That's not how a wire transfer works, J. The electronic funds transfer doesn't go to the address. The banks use the address provided to validate they have the right person. Doesn't have to be a residence.

They didn't wire a bag of cash or a box of cash or a brick of cash or a briefcase of cash to a residence, but those are what you're effectively painting the picture of and it's clear you're out of your element Originally Posted by HDGristle
So Joe’s beach house just acted as ops center for Chinese bribes. You’re ok with that? It’s no problem in your eyes that foreign enemies are eft-ing huge chunks of cash to an addict whose dad just happened to be running for president and doing favors for the payers?

Could be just a coinkydink, I’m sure, but I tend to believe if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it’s a duck.

You're applying a likely bar instead of a beyond reasonable doubt bar.

And you're again focusing on a location one person put on a form and inferring what occurred instead of showing. I get that you feel a-ok making a logical leap on circumstantial evidence and a mountain of inference. Instead of shoring up your point and addressing the hole in your logic on the wire transfer not being location based you're doubling down on it and then trying to didtract with a strawman.

The address used for the wire transfer isn't a smoking gun. They aren't going to deny the address was used. It's like trying to say you sent a whore a wire payment and she used her dad's address. She didn't live there at the time. She sucked you off in the kitchen once when no one else was there.

How exactly do you prove that HER DAD knew, profited from and/or was directing her actions in the background?

You're ok with a prima facie level on the big guy because you've made up your mind. You don't care about an actual connection, you're focused on the inference because that's enough and you're ok with likely and not beyond a reasonable doubt.

Now that's OK for impeachment. It's political theater. But your logic and stated evidence has holes in it bigger than the gaps in Trump's border wall. Show us that it actually acted as an ops center.

One smoking gun released you won't find in the DNC news media

#impeachmentinquiry released this WhatsApp message from Hunter Biden to his uncle Jim: "you've been drawn into something for the purpose of protecting Dad".



What were they protecting Joe Biden from?

Well on the same date that text was sent, James Biden wrote to CEFC officials with wiring instructions seeking "Hunter Biden's" $1 million bogus "legal retainer" from a corrupt Chinese energy company.

More of Senile Biden and his corrupt DOJ covering up his crimes

BREAKING: New docs reveal federal agents were not permitted to ask the president's brother James Biden during a Sept 2022 interview about Joe Biden's involvement in CEFC China Energy deal. They were told to focus on Hunter's "mental state" during years he cheated IRS

Leftists must ask themselves: If Senile Biden and the Biden Crime Family is so clean, why did he:

1. lie to the public over 10 times
2. make an emergency trip to Kiev after Trump won & clean out related classified docs from the Whitehouse?
3. use encrypted apps & fake names in emails?
4. create a maze of shell companies, pass-thrus & cut-outs to hide money received?
5. seek offshore accounts to deposit money received in?
6. hide millions in business income from the IRS?
7. speak in code re Joe as "the Big Guy"?
8. avoid FARA disclosures?
9. threaten foreign and US prosecutors?
10. withhold 170 suspicious bank reports?
... Hmmmmm... Must be because Joe's CORRUPT.

... Anyone else got a good opinion??
