Open Thread Friday

Jeez, just let the CHOP Art people have their event. Honestly, whatever you think of CHOP, or how it ended, celebrate the art. Or just let other people celebrate it. You actually have the ability to ignore it if you don’t like it.

Anyway, please wash your hands right now, and get vaccinated if you haven’t yet.

    This would be the Feds working for the Obama administration, back when everyone assumed #CrookedHillary would win.

    Feds subpoenaed Hunter Biden during 2016 election, raising worry over unpaid taxes on Ukraine work

    …the president’s youngest son has been worried about federal exposure on taxes since April 2016, long before Donald Trump was elected president or Biden’s Ukraine business dealings became the focus of scandal and an impeachment trial.

    Emails written five years ago by Eric Schwerin, an executive inside the Rosemont Seneca business empire where Hunter Biden worked, show there was about $1 million in personal income — about $400,000 in 2014 and $600,000 in 2015 — that the younger Biden had earned as a board member and consultant for Burisma that had not been fully covered by U.S. tax payments.
    …
    The conversations were prompted by a subpoena to Hunter Biden from federal authorities a few weeks earlier, the emails show. “I received a SEC subpoena for any information I have related to the situation Devin [sic] is dealing with,” Hunter Biden wrote a lawyer and Schwerin on March 23, 2016.
    …
    Beyond providing potential insights into why the FBI may have opened a criminal probe into Hunter Biden, the newly recovered emails also undercut a key Democratic talking point justifying Trump’s impeachment in fall 2019 and his early 2020 Senate trial, where the president was acquitted.

    Biden didn’t choose not to run in 2016 because the good son died. Biden chose not to run in 2016 because it’s very likely that Hillary had the dirt on POS Hunter Biden.

    Media Matters is forced to retract a story. In less than 8 1/2 hours.

    Story retracted
    WRITTEN BY ERIC HANANOKI

    PUBLISHED 06/08/21 11:10 AM EDT

    UPDATED 06/08/21 7:30 PM EDT

    Editor’s note (6/8/21): Earlier today, Media Matters published a story stating that Texas state Sen. Bob Hall had “appeared on the program of a white nationalist, pro-Hitler outlet that denies the Holocaust.” After publication, we were made aware that the program in question — The Barnes Review History Hour (TBR History Hour) — had faked the interview, falsely claiming they had interviewed Hall by splicing in previous interviews Hall had given to other outlets and making it seem like he was responding to questions from TBR. We have pulled the story and apologize for the error.

    Doubling the Civil Rights Division head count at the same time you announce a nationwide investigation into discriminatory voting practices by the states.

    Consider how much majorities matter at a time like this.

    Without a Senate majority Biden would not have an AG.
    And without a House majority they’d be on round two of some kind of “Laptopgate” impeachment hearings.

    The solution to Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema is to add two more Democrats to the Senate. It’s not easy. But given the stance and behavior of Republicans in states like Pennsylvania and Wisconsin it ought to be achievable given all Democrats learned in Georgia.

    23,
    You only get the scenario you think you can get if the Senate Majority Leader takes meaningful steps against Manchin. Like stripping him of his committees. That’s the only way Moscow Mitch gains bargaining leverage. Manchin can’t change parties unless doing so gains him something.

    Meanwhile Joe can continue to “identify” as “bipartisan”. But if doing so results in him demonstrating the total failure of “bipartisanship” then he has no more room to move in that direction. So the criticism has purpose. You’re just too dumb to get it.

    This. is. CNN.

    The vice president has never been particularly adept when confronted with questions that she doesn’t like or doesn’t want to answer — as she demonstrated during 2020 primaries, when she repeatedly dodged and fumbled questions about her health care plan.
    …
    It was a clumsy answer that came off as tone-deaf given that the situation at the US-Mexico border is one of the most troubling issues facing the administration. Finding a solution for stemming migration from Central America is a problem that has eluded multiple administrations for decades, but even some White House officials — who want her to succeed in this difficult endeavor — were perplexed.

    Embarrassed is a more accurate description. She was ol’ Joe’s choice. After Jill said @ 11 that Kamala could go fuck herself.

    Her shaky handling of the politics around the immigration issue drew new questions about her political dexterity both as vice president and as a future aspirant for the White House, because the trip this week was her first test at the highest levels of statecraft.

    She’s incompetent. Willie Brown gave her one too many jobs she didn’t deserve, and here we are.

    Er, I’m getting the scenario I prefer now. Prior to the 2022 midterms I don’t need anything else.

    The resistance that Manchin and Sinema show enables other Democrat senators to remain silent and avoid being targeted by their own party. If the former two go wobbly others will have to step up.

    Like, say, Feinstein. Say, didn’t Schumer strip her of a committee chairmanship for being too collegial with a gay dude? I believe he did.
