Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Anyone who doesn’t understand how this relates to Joe has a baby brain. I guess all those Ukrainian and Chinese private equity investors gave brain dead, crack addicted hunter millions to blow on hookers and makeup because of his astounding business acumen
The “best” lib answer is that sure, they paid Hunter for influence but Joe didn’t actually do anything for them. Which a.) isn’t how conflict of interest works, it’s the situation itself that’s the problem, and b.) strains credulity, since after the first few hundies if they weren’t getting anything in return you assume they would just stop.
The funny thing is they’re just reaping what they sowed when going after trump. “The swamp” is fucking real, the entire thing is stacked with corrupt weasels, and I’m sure if you started turning over rocks around basically any senator and their families you would pull out countless instances of corruption and inappropriate behavior though certainly not to this extent.
And I agree with you the libs trying to sell us joes innocence must think we’re the dumbest motherfuckers on earth
It’s like, libs want us to be mad about George Santos. He’s doing penny ante corruption while someone like Pelosi is really cashing in.
