The image gets individual pieces of this assertion right -- Hunter Biden was a director of the company, and Joe Biden did leverage U.S. aid to fire a prosecutor. But it overreaches by assuming that Joe Biden acted to protect the company his son was affiliated with. In reality, there was widespread agreement in the West that the existing prosecutor had to go, and it’s not clear that the company would have benefited from his ouster anyway, given evidence that its cases had long been dormant.

That said, experts criticize the Bidens for their arrangement, saying it could have been a significant conflict of interest.

Now look at Trump and follow the Kushner financing of his 666 property.

How about, NOW, we stop all these politically driven "investigations" and get on with actually solving the real problems our Republic has. Its life is hanging on by the threads of its tattered flag and we're wondering if it wouldn't be better to become a socialist "Democracy."

But, what the hell, who cares. I mean the world will end in twelve years if we don't stop eating hamburgers. The world would be better if we all just dissolved the borders that divide us, became an open planet where everyone has free healthcare, free just about everything actually . . . and who wouldn't abandon their present awful religions and authoritarian governments and join We are the People of the World?
