Hunter Laptop Emails Show Joe Biden Traveled to Ireland with Hunter and Jim Biden Who Met with China’s CEFC Executives

 

As Joe Biden settles back in at the White House after his trip last week to Ireland, investigations by the US Attorney of Delaware and the U.S. House continue on with recent revelations of transactions flagged as SARs, or Suspicious Activity Reports, regarding Hunter Biden’s business dealings with Chinese energy firm CEFC.

 

Hunter Biden, ironically, accompanied his father on his trip to Ireland this past week. “Ironically”? Why do you say that? Well, it’s not the first time Joe and Hunter traveled to Ireland together nor is it the most interesting.

 

In March 2022, the Washington Post published an article titled “Inside Hunter Biden’s Multimillion-dollar Deals with a Chinese Energy Company.” The article, surprisingly, was a fair assessment of the evidence that has recently been unearthed from emails contained in Hunter’s now-infamous laptop.

 

The WaPo article mentions the Chinese Energy conglomerate, CEFC, paying entities controlled by Hunter and his uncle, James Biden, $4.8 million over the course of 14 months.

 

They mention Hunter adding the names “The Biden Foundation and Hudson West (CEFC-US)” to the office space leased by Hunter’s company, Rosemont Seneca, at the House of Sweden in Washington DC. Hunter also requested keys be made for Gongwen Dong (Chairman Ye CEFC emissary) and Joe, Jill and Jim Biden.

The article even references tense email exchanges between Hunter and his landlords regarding Hunter violating office policies by bringing visitors in through the side entrance and skipping the sign-in policy of the office building. Hunter, of course, cried “racism” after explaining one of the “visitors” was a homeless woman that “he could vouch for”. Another side door visitor was reportedly Lunden Roberts, who would later prove she is the mother to his out-of-wedlock child.

 

But one statement in the WaPo article is a bit concerning:

 

The Post did not find evidence that Joe Biden personally benefited from or knew details about the transactions with CEFC, which took place after he had left the vice presidency and before he announced his intentions to run for the White House in 2020.

 

Joe himself has reverberated this sentiment throughout his 2020 campaign, including on the debate stage against President Trump.

 

So perhaps the following is just a coincidence:

 

In September 2017, Joe Biden traveled to Ireland as a civilian. According to the following emails obtained by MarcoPolo, Joe left on September 11, 2017 on American Airlines Flight 776. Hunter, James, and Jamie Biden would also be on that very same flight, although their itinerary was sent in a separate email.

 

On August 21, 2017, prior to their planned departure for Ireland, former assistant to the Vice President (VP) Kathy Chung sent an email titled “Memo on Ireland FP Options” to “Jimmy Biden” and “Hunter Biden”. In it, she stated:

 

VP asked me to send this to you. He will choose which meetings he’d like to do while in Ireland. Thanks.

New Report Exposes Feminist Misinformation about Parental Alienation

 

One of the most severe forms of child abuse is parental alienation, in which one parent seeks to weaken and damage the child’s relationship with the other parent. The seriousness of parental alienation is revealed by these facts:

 

Nearly one-quarter of separated or divorced parents reported at least one of their children had been alienated from them, according to one study (1).

Hundreds of research studies confirming the existence of parental alienation have been conducted in 32 countries around the world (2).

in nearly 1,200 trial and appellate cases, judges have ruled that evidence of possible parental alienation was relevant and admissible (3).

 

Despite the fact that parental alienation is an “equal opportunity” problem affecting both fathers and mothers (4), feminists have taken the implausible position that parental alienation is simply a ruse of abusive fathers (5).

 

In order to advance this theory, Jean Mercer and Margaret Drew published a book titled, Challenging Parental Alienation: New Directions for Professionals and Parents (6). The book refers to parental alienation as a “pseudoscience” and “belief system,” and concludes that family courts should avoid use of parental alienation concepts.

 

Despite the existence of hundreds of studies showing that women engage in domestic violence as often as men (7), the Mercer/Drew book consistently portrays fathers as abusers, suggesting its real intent is to falsely stereotype men.

 

In response, the Parental Alienation Study Group and Global Action for Research Integrity in Parental Alienation recently published a rebuttal titled, A Comprehensive Review of Misinformation and Other Inaccuracies in Challenging Parental Alienation (8). The 127-page rebuttal identifies five types of misinformation in the Mercer/Drew book.

 

The analysis concludes, “These errors are so egregious that we believe they constitute a deliberate attempt to mislead mental health professionals, legal professionals, and parents. The misinformation contained in this book is likely to cause irreparable harm to children and families.”

 

Lawmakers and policy-makers around the world are urged to reject the false claims of the Mercer/Drew book, and support local observances of International Parental Alienation Awareness Day on April 25.

Truth Social chief suggests SEC trying to kill merger effort over politics

 

"He's worked overtime to try to kill our company," Nunes asserted.

 

Trump Media & Technology Group CEO Devin Nunes on Monday shared suspicions that the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is working to kill a prospective merger that would allow the company to get listed on the stock exchange and raise key capital to expand the platform.

 

Nunes made the remarks on the "Just the News, No Noise" television show, one day before SEC Chairman Gary Gensler is slated to speak before a congressional committee.

 

The former California lawmaker derided Gensler, asserting that his time in office had been marred by myriad disasters, saying "[w]ell, overall, you've had some of the biggest disasters that have occurred on his watch, whether it's the cryptocurrency guy, the FTX guy, so many things that are that have blown up on his watch."

 

"And in the meantime, you know, he's worked overtime to try to kill our company," Nunes asserted. "We're a privately held company. We've been attempting to merge with a finance company. It's a well-known mechanism. The stockholders, the shareholders have voted overwhelmingly to stay involved in this. We have said that, 'look, we'd like to get this deal completed.' But it just goes nowhere. And it makes no sense."

 

He further asserted that such a merger ought to take far less time that it had thus far. The company is seeking to merge with Digital World Acquisition Corp.

 

"An approval like this for for our company, should happen within just just a few months," Nunes insisted. "And we've had the application there now for a year, a full year. I think we're one of the longest in history, where you have two willing partners who want to do a deal, who have not received any comments whatsoever."

 

"[Y]ou've got Gensler there, who[m] we outed as the guy who actually was the CFO for the Hillary campaign, who actually wrote the check to Fusion GPS," he added. "You have Peter Strzok's wife, who is there, the disgraced FBI agent who was running the Russia hoax. You have the general counsel there at the SEC, happens to be she used to work for Pelosi has now graduated up.

 

"So you have three people that are clearly involved in this transaction or non-transaction, trying to basically kill our ability to have access to the public markets, the public capital markets," he alleged. "That's what this is really about."

 

Nunes then emphasized the importance of the deal to the future of Truth Social, noting that closing it would bring in approximately $300 million through which the company could build out the platform.

 

"We're trying to compete with with big tech, but in order to to compete with big tech, we have to have access to those capital markets," he stressed. "And so you know, look at I can't believe this guy is still the SEC Chairman but look, it really ticks me off that he's even anywhere near dealing with our company."

 

"He is a known political actor, surrounded by other political actors who are 'get Trump first' people," he concluded. "And it seems like it's happening in every area of our government."

Judge rejects mistrial in Proud Boys case, says he saw no evidence of government misconduct

 

Defendant Dominic Pezzola had sought either a mistrial or the dismissal of charges against him.

 

A federal judge handling a trial involving members of the Proud Boys group who participated in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol Riot has rejected calls for a mistrial amid allegations of government misconduct.

 

Defendant Dominic Pezzola had sought either a mistrial or the dismissal of charges against him, making allegations of evidence tampering and the withholding of exculpatory evidence, among other claims. Pezzola referenced footage that Fox News host Tucker Carlson had aired on the network showing the QAnon Shaman, one of the most prominent participants in the event, being peacefully escorted within the chamber.

 

In his ruling, Judge Timothy Kelly determined that the defendant had not been denied access to exculpatory evidence.

 

"Pezzola has not shown that the video footage tends to show his innocence," he determined.

 

Kelly further addressed claims that the DOJ had monitored communications between another defendant and Pezzola's attorney. He determined that Pezzola lacked standing to address the matter, noting that none of the alleged communications even referenced him.

 

He further rejected a destruction of evidence allegation, asserting that the materials pertained to an unrelated case and were not grounds for dismissal of charges against Pezzola.

 

Pezzola faces charges of seditious conspiracy, alongside four other defendants.

Tarrant County, TX Elections Administrator and Former Smartmatic Executive Heider Garcia Resigns

 

Tarrant County, TX Elections Administrator Heider Garcia submitted his resignation Sunday to Tarrant County Judge Tim O’Hare, effective June 23, 2023 in order to ensure the county is ready for their May 6th Joint Elections.

 

In a letter addressed to the Honorable Tim O’Hare and Honorable GK Maenius, Garcia wrote “Judge O’Hare, my formula to ‘administer a transparent election’ stands on respect and zero politics; compromising on these values is not an option for me. You made it clear in our last meeting that your formula is different, thus, my decision to leave. I wish you the best; Tarrant County deserves that you find success.”

 

The former Smartmatic executive who was scrutinized by the Filipino Congressmen Teodoro Locsin Jr during a hearing in 2010 was hired in 2018 by Tarrant County and presided over the 2020 General Election in Tarrant County. The county voted for a democrat President for the first time in 56 years.

Canada’s state media quit Twitter over label

 

The CBC has objected to Elon Musk’s “government-funded media” designation

 

The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) announced on Monday that it was “pausing” its activity on Twitter after the social media platform labeled it as state-funded, arguing that this somehow impugned their editorial independence.

 

“Our journalism is impartial and independent. To suggest otherwise is untrue. That is why we are pausing our activities on Twitter,” the government-funded outlet tweeted.

 

“Twitter can be a powerful tool for our journalists to communicate with Canadians, but it undermines the accuracy and professionalism of the work they do to allow our independence to be falsely described in this way,” CBC spokesperson Leon Mar said on Sunday evening. “Consequently, we will be pausing our activity on our corporate Twitter account and all CBC and Radio-Canada news-related accounts.”

 

The CBC is a Crown corporation, entirely owned by the Canadian state. In its 2021-22 annual analysis, it reported receiving 1.24 billion ($930 million) Canadian dollars in government funding. However, the outlet insists that its editorial policies are entirely independent of the government and guided only by “public interest.”

 

Mar argued that Twitter’s own policy defines government-funded media as those in which the authorities “may have varying degrees of government involvement over editorial content,” which is “clearly not the case with CBC/Radio Canada.”

NY Times: Biden Officials ‘Ignored’ Warnings of Surge in Migrant Children Being Labor Trafficked into U.S. Jobs

 

Officials in President Joe Biden’s administration have “ignored or missed” warnings from whistleblowers detailing a surge in Unaccompanied Alien Children (UACs) being labor trafficked into United States jobs, the New York Times reported.

 

UACs are detained at the U.S.-Mexico border before being sent to Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) custody where most are eventually released to sponsors throughout the nation.

 

The Times, in an extensive report, spoke with HHS officials as well as whistleblowers and reviewed federal documents to unveil a widespread trend since Biden took office: UACs being labor trafficked, forced to work brutal jobs by their adult sponsors, with little-to-no oversight from the administration.

 

In a handful of cases noted by the Times, adult male sponsors were found to be sponsoring multiple UACs only to have them take hard-labor jobs once they arrived in their care. Those jobs include construction work, industrial plants with dangerous chemicals, and food processing facilities, among others.

 

Repeatedly, HHS officials and whistleblowers said they warned the Biden administration of such cases that appeared to be migrant child labor trafficking but received radio silence, and sometimes, employment retribution for doing so.

 

The Times reported:

 

But all along, there were signs of the explosive growth of this labor force and warnings that the Biden administration ignored or missed, The Times has found. [Emphasis added]

 

Again and again, veteran government staffers and outside contractors told the Health and Human Services Department, including in reports that reached Secretary Xavier Becerra, that children appeared to be at risk. The Labor Department put out news releases noting an increase in child labor. Senior White House aides were shown evidence of exploitation, such as clusters of migrant children who had been found working with industrial equipment or caustic chemicals. [Emphasis added]

 

 

At least five Health and Human Services staff members filed complaints and said they were pushed out after raising concerns about child safety. [Emphasis added]

 

More cases reported by the Times show a trend where UAC sponsors use migrant children in their care to pay them back debts. In one case, a 12-year-old UAC boy was made to work after arriving in his sponsor’s care. That same sponsor had already sponsored at least five other UACs.

 

In February, the Times detailed in a report that HHS has lost contact with more than 85,000 UACs after they were turned over to sponsors living throughout the U.S. interior. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officials have seemingly admitted that many of those lost UACs have ended up in the child labor trafficking pipeline.

 

Last month, HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra said he had “no idea” whether HHS has lost track of 85,000 UACs in the U.S. — questioning whether the figure is “based in reality or not.” Becerra also told Sen. James Lankford (R-OK) that he “never heard that number of 85,000 … it doesn’t sound at all to be realistic.”

 

Since Biden took office, a quarter of a million UACs have been resettled with sponsors across American communities. The majority, 64 to 66 percent, are boys, while 72 percent of all UACs are 15 to 18 years old. Only 15 to 16 percent of UACs are babies, toddlers, and pre-teens.
