Biden's Inflation Reduction Act
The Inflation Reduction Act lowered costs for families; to help combat the climate crisis, reduce the deficit, and finally asked the largest corporations to pay their fair share.
President Biden and Congressional Democrats worked together to deliver a historic legislative achievement that defeats special interests, delivers for American families, and grows the economy from the bottom up and middle out.
Every Republican in the House & Senate voted against this act, but they like to constantly complain about inflation, and they didn't have any plans to solve inflation!
HEALTH CARE Cutting Prescription Drug Cost
Americans were paying 2 to 3 times what citizens of other countries pay for prescription drugs.
5-7 million Medicare beneficiaries. Their prescription drug costs went down because of a provision allowing Medicare to negotiate prescription drug costs.
50 million Americans with Medicare Part D have the peace of mind knowing their costs at the pharmacy are capped at $2,000 per year, directly benefiting about 1.4 million beneficiaries each year.
3.3 million Medicare beneficiaries with diabetes benefited from a guarantee that their insulin costs are capped at $35 for a month’s supply.
Lowering Health Care Costs
13 million Americans continue to save an average of $800 per year on health insurance premiums
3 million more Americans have health insurance than before
The uninsured rate is at an all-time low of 8%
TAXES Making the Tax Code Fairer
$0.00 is how much some of the largest, profitable corporations pay in federal income tax.
55: the number of America’s largest, wealthiest corporations that got away without paying a cent in federal income taxes in 2020.
$160B is how much the top 1 percent of earners is estimated to evade each year in taxes.
15% is the minimum tax on corporate profits that the Inflation Reduction Act imposes on the largest, most profitable corporations.
$124B savings over 10 years that the Inflation Reduction Act will generate from collecting taxes already owed by wealthy people and large corporations, according to the Congressional Budget Office.
And no family making less than $400,000 will see their taxes go up a penny.
Reducing the Deficit
The Inflation Act would achieve hundreds of billions in deficit reduction.
The deficit dropped by $1.4T from Trump's $2.6T, in 2022
126 leading economists; including 7 Nobel Laureates, 2 former Treasury Secretaries, 2 former Fed Vice Chairs and 2 former CEA Chairs, have said reducing the deficit would help fight inflation and support strong, stable economic growth and it has!
There is so much more to this bill which includes clean energy.
Again, not one Republican voted for the American People & reducing the deficit. In fact, they wanted to recall this bill when they took over the House. They even have bills they Introduced into Congress to recall the Tax on the Rich, plus make the 2017 tax cuts permanent!

Oh how they like to tweet disinformation in order to make it look like Biden is failing, such as this tweet:
➡️Sen. Marsha Blackburn - Jun 25
"Since Biden assumed office, inflation has increased 16%. Biden’s economy has made it harder for Americans to afford everyday life."
US inflation is leaving those sky-high days behind. Consumer prices in May rose at the slowest annual pace since March 2021.
May was the 11th consecutive month that inflation has slowed. It's a welcome reprieve from the painful shock of persistently high inflation endured during the past two years. This time last year, that CPI print was more than double at 8.6%.
As for "Americans to afford everyday life" claim in her tweet;
The prices of oil, transportation, food ingredients and other raw materials have fallen in recent months as the shocks stemming from the pandemic and the war in Ukraine have faded. Yet many big businesses have continued raising prices at a rapid clip.
Some of the biggest companies have said they do not plan to change course and will continue increasing prices or keep them at elevated levels for the foreseeable future.
It's all about "corporate profits," which keep inflation going, which they then use to justify surging prices.
The bags of Doritos, cartons of Tropicana orange juice and bottles of Gatorade are now substantially pricier. Customers have grumbled, but they have largely kept buying. Shareholders in these companies are cheering as their pockets are being filled with money at the consumers expense
Companies that sell consumer goods have done well while they continue to raise prices.
For the past two years, most companies had a perfectly good excuse to go ahead and raise prices on their consumers. It's called Corporate Greed. The Republicans know this, but they protect the Corporations while blaming President Biden for higher prices.
The Republicans have screamed Inflation since Biden took office. In August 2022 he was able to get the H.R.5376, Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, passed into law.
➡️220 House Democrats voted to pass it
➡️207 House Republicans voted against the bill
➡️50 Senate Democrats voted to pass it
➡️50 Senate Republicans voted against it
VP Harris was the tie breaking vote - She voted to pass it & it passed into law.
Republicans complain about inflation, blame Biden, then vote against anything he tries to do to help curb inflation & help the American People out.

Those darn Clowns sure can be so hypocritical & so dictatorial acting.
Take Ms. 3 Names, one who believes that, "Your rules don't apply to me, but my rules apply to you."
3 Names called for censuring all the House Democrats, who protested the censure of Adam Schiff on the House floor, stating;
“The Democrats reacted like children. …and they too should be censured. …They disrespected our Speaker.”
The Democrats did yell out "shame, shame." And 3 Names wanted them censured.
Let's take a little trip down memory lane
Jan 2021 & up to Jan 2023. Did Ms.3 Names forget all the times SHE disrespected Speaker Pelosi?
2021 - President's State of the Union Address, who was yelling out from their seat at the President very disrespectfully?
2022 - President's State of the Union Address, who wore a white fur collared coat, screaming out "Liar" & disrespecting the President?
This is the same person who recently got into a fight on a House Committee Floor with another female Clown. There was a little shouting match going & then Ms. 3 Names called the other one a "B**ch", while the Chairman of that Committee was trying to bring order to the room.
Rumor has it that one of the Committees she is on would like to remove her. Reason being, any thing they say, especially if she disagrees with it, she'll run to the guy with the gavel & report them. Plus they also would like the old rules for decorum brought back into the Committee. She’s a loose cannon & the guy with the gavel allows it.
Since January 2023 - The Congressional House of Representatives, has been changed to The Congressional House of Clowns.
November 5, 2024 - Vote Blue and eliminate the Clowns!

It's been just short of 6 months that the Republicans took control of the House.
What have they done for the American People?
Bogus Investigations on Biden. Blaming Biden for everything that could happen, even the tragedy of the "Titan".
Yes, they’re blaming Biden for it, by claiming he didn't do enough to save them.
The cramped vessel lost contact with its mother ship about 1 hour and 45 minutes into its dive, and did not surface as expected. Which prompted an extensive search & rescue operation, in a remote area, several hundred miles southeast of Newfoundland.
A senior Navy official said the Navy detected an acoustic signature consistent with an implosion on Sunday in the general area where the vessel was diving. The Navy immediately relayed that information to on-scene commanders leading the search effort. They used that information to narrow down the search area.
But the sound of the implosion was determined to be “not definitive,” and the multinational efforts to find the submersible continued as a search and rescue effort.
Banging noises were detected underwater by sonar Tuesday and Wednesday in the massive search area, though their origin was not clear. The sounds on Tuesday 1st came every 30 minutes and were heard again four hours later. Those noises were likely from some form of natural life or sounds given off by other ships & vessels that were part of the search effort.
Once the wreckage from the Titan was found, that verified what the Navy detected on Sunday. 1 hour & 45 minutes into the Titan's dive, was when the implosion happened. The implosion ripped the Titan to shreds and the people in there died instantly.
There are families in mourning over their loved ones lost in this horrific tragedy. But the Republicans, well they just can't let a tragedy go without blaming Biden for it, said he didn't do enough to save them.
The Titanic wreckage, which is about 12,500 feet deep in the North Atlantic, is in the midnight zone. That's as deep as about nine Empire State Buildings stacked on top of each other. It's not a tourist site, it's time to let it rest in peace!
More than 1500 people lost their lives; of the 1500, 337 bodies were recovered, 119 were buried at sea, 209 were brought back to Halifax. 59 were claimed by relatives and shipped to their home communities. The remaining 150 victims are buried in three cemeteries: Fairview Lawn, Mount Olivet and Baron de Hirsch in Halifax.
As for the Republican & their "Blame Game,"
SHAME ON YOU!
Here’s an example of a tweet from a Republican Senator & how she is using the tragedy:
Sen. Marsha Blackburn
“If the U.S. Navy suspected that the Titan Submersible imploded just hours after it began its voyage, why did the Coast Guard wait until Thursday, the same day the IRS whistleblowers testified before Congress, to make their announcement to the public?”
She is referring to the Hunter Biden Investigation and making the Titan tragedy political!

Women's Rights are on the attack again - Contraceptives!
A Little History:
2022 - Senator Edward J. Markey (D) & Senator Patty Murray (D), Chair of the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP), sought unanimous consent to pass the Right to Contraception Act to protect every American’s fundamental right to use birth control.
➡️This act was blocked by Senator Joni Ernst (R)
Senators Markey & Murray pushed to quickly pass their legislation with Senators Mazie Hirono (D) & Tammy Duckworth (D), following passage of companion legislation in the House of Representatives despite:
➡️Nearly the entire House Republican conference voted against the bill.
Fast Forward to:
JUNE 21, 2023 - Senator Edward J. Markey (D.), chair of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) Subcommittee on Primary Health and Retirement Security, sought unanimous consent to pass his Right to Contraception Act to protect every American’s fundamental right to use contraception.
➡️Senate Republicans blocked the bill on the floor.
The Right to Contraception Act would codify and strengthen the right to contraception, which the Supreme Court first recognized more than half a century ago in its Griswold v. Connecticut decision.
Senator Markey and his colleagues first introduced the legislation in July 2022 in the wake of Justice Clarence Thomas’ concurring opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which overturned Roe v. Wade, in which he urged the Supreme Court to “reconsider” its substantive due process precedents, including Griswold.
Moreover, Republican lawmakers in several states across the country have placed restrictions on birth control by:
➡️Eliminating funding for it
➡️Defining abortion broadly enough to include contraception thereby restricting it, and
➡️Allowing health care providers to deny service related to contraception based on their own beliefs.
They took the right to abortion away, but they want to take away the right of women NOT to get pregnant by taking away their contraceptives.
To get pregnant or NOT to get pregnant should be the choice of the woman. NOT Republican Lawmakers. Their version of the Stepford Wives & Handmaidens combined. Next they’ll want to be called Captains.
Senator Markey's Statement
“Congress has an obligation to fulfill its duty to protect the rights of Americans, from marriage equality to civil rights and worker safety. Yet, today, when I asked Republicans for the second time to stand up for the right to contraception, a policy that a vast majority of Americans support, they said no."
"Each and every Republican who refused to protect the right to contraception told Americans loud and clear that they’re willing to risk the health of millions of Americans for politics. It is time for them to get out of the doctor’s office and start representing the American people."
"As the Supreme Court and extremist Republicans hack away at our rights, we cannot and will not give up. I will continue to fight to pass the Right to Contraception Act.”

OHIO Election - August 8, 2023
Last Day to Register - July 10, 2023
Make sure you are registered!
Constitution Amendment is on the Ballot,
Called "ISSUE 1 - VOTE NO."
This is an important election - GOTV.
Arguments against ISSUE 1.
This Amendment would:
Destroy citizen-driven ballot initiatives, upending the right to make "decisions that directly impact our lives."
It takes away freedom by undermining the sacred principle of "one person, one vote," & destroys majority rule in Ohio.
Last year, Ohio politicians eliminated August special elections saying, “Interest groups often manipulatively put issues on the ballot in August because they know fewer Ohioans are paying attention.” And yet they are voting in August on just one question: "Should Ohio permanently abolish the basic constitutional right of majority rule?"
Special interests and corrupt politicians don't like voters making decisions, so they’re trying to rewrite the rules to get what they want & give themselves more power.
ISSUE 1. Ends Majority Rule; It means just 40% of voters can block any issue, putting 40% of voters in charge of decision-making for the majority.
It shreds the OHIO Constitution; It would permanently undo constitutional protections that have been in place for over 100 years to check politicians’ power at the ballot box.
It takes Away Freedom; It would destroy citizen-driven ballot initiatives and guarantee that only wealthy special interests could advance changes to the Ohio constitution.
It applies to All Issues; If this amendment passes, it will apply to every single amendment, on any issue Ohioans will ever vote on, by allowing just 40% of voters to decide.
All Ohioans deserve to make decisions that impact their lives.
Protect your freedom to determine your future, and not permanently change the Ohio constitution to give up those rights. Vote NO!
Republican leaders have admitted in private and in public that their effort is really aimed to stop an abortion rights amendment slated for the November ballot, & to stop voters from any effort toward further anti-gerrymandering reform.
Secretary of State Frank LaRose was recorded telling Seneca County Republicans this is;
➡️“100% about keeping a radical pro-abortion amendment out of our constitution.”
Here is a link to all the ways you can help defeat Issue 1, whether you’re in Ohio or elsewhere. Remember, this could be coming to a state where you live.

¡El presidente Biden es 'fiel' a su palabra!
En 2022: la administración Biden enfrentó críticas el año pasado después de que firmó una ley para evitar una huelga ferroviaria en todo el país.
Los trabajadores y sus sindicatos presionaron por la licencia por enfermedad el año pasado durante las acaloradas negociaciones del contrato, y casi se declaran en huelga por el tema durante la crucial temporada navideña.
➡️Buscando evitar un desastre económico, la Casa Blanca terminó apoyando una legislación que obligaba a un acuerdo sin licencia por enfermedad, lo que generó críticas generalizadas.
➡️En ese momento, Biden dijo que continuaría presionando por la licencia por enfermedad
2023: después de meses de negociaciones, el gigante ferroviario de carga CSX llegó a un acuerdo con dos sindicatos sobre licencia por enfermedad remunerada, proporcionando a 5000 trabajadores cuatro días por enfermedad remunerados al año, así como tres días personales.
➡️La Casa Blanca estuvo en contacto con CSX antes de su anuncio de licencia por enfermedad
➡️ Funcionarios de alto nivel, incluido el director del Consejo Económico Nacional, Brian Deese, el secretario de Trabajo, Marty Walsh, y el secretario de Transporte, Pete Buttigieg, tuvieron llamadas con ejecutivos de CSX, Union Pacific, BNSF y Norfolk Southern recientemente, presionándolos sobre el tema.
La Administración ha seguido haciendo de esto una prioridad, comunicándose con las partes y evaluando todas las opciones legislativas y administrativas.
Los ferrocarriles entienden que queda más trabajo por hacer con respecto a la calidad de vida y las preocupaciones sobre la previsibilidad de la programación por parte de los empleados y han estado en conversaciones activas con sus sindicatos sobre la mejor manera de abordar estos asuntos.
En una declaración de Al Russo, el Director del Departamento de Ferrocarriles, dijo:
"Estamos agradecidos de que la administración de Biden haya jugado el juego largo en los días de enfermedad y se haya quedado con nosotros durante meses después de que el Congreso impusiera nuestro acuerdo nacional actualizado. Sin hacer un gran espectáculo, Joe Biden y los miembros de su administración en Transporte y Trabajo Los departamentos han estado trabajando continuamente para garantizar días de enfermedad pagados para todos los trabajadores ferroviarios".
Continuó diciendo: "Sabemos que muchos de nuestros miembros no estaban contentos con nuestro acuerdo original, pero a pesar de todo, teníamos fe en que nuestros amigos en la Casa Blanca y el Congreso mantendrían la presión sobre nuestros empleadores ferroviarios para obtener nosotros los beneficios de días de enfermedad que merecemos. Hasta que negociamos estos nuevos acuerdos individuales con estos transportistas, un miembro de IBEW que se ausentaba enfermo no era compensado".

President Biden is True to his Word!
In 2022 - The Biden Administration faced criticism after he signed legislation to avert a nationwide rail strike.
Workers and their unions pushed for sick leave last year during heated contract negotiations, nearly going on strike over the issue during the crucial holiday season.
➡️Seeking to avert economic disaster, the White House wound up supporting legislation that forced a deal without any sick leave, drawing widespread criticism.
➡️At the time, Biden said he would continue to push for sick leave.
2023 - After months of negotiations, the freight rail giant CSX reached a deal with two unions on paid sick leave, providing 5,000 workers with four paid sick days a year as well as three personal days.
➡️The White House was in touch with CSX before its sick leave announcement.
➡️High-level officials, including National Economic Council director Brian Deese, Labor Secretary Marty Walsh, and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, had made calls with executives from CSX, Union Pacific, BNSF, and Norfolk Southern pressing them on the issue.
The Administration has continued to make this a priority, communicating with the parties and evaluating all legislative and administrative options.
The railroads understand that more work remains regarding quality of life and scheduling predictability concerns by employees. They have been in active discussions with their unions about how these matters are best addressed.
A statement by Al Russo, the Railroad Department Director:
"We're thankful that the Biden administration played the long game on sick days and stuck with us for months after Congress imposed our updated national agreement. Without making a big show of it, Joe Biden and members of his administration in the Transportation and Labor Departments have been working continuously to get guaranteed paid sick days for all railroad workers."
He went on to say, "We know many of our members weren't happy with our original agreement, but through it all, we had faith that our friends in the White House and Congress would keep up the pressure on our railroad employers to get us the sick day benefits we deserve. Until we negotiated these new individual agreements with these carriers, an IBEW member who called out sick was not compensated."

Cats to the Rescue!
Meet Marsha - a Russian Cat
Masha lives in a community in Russia and is fed and cared for by the local residents.
Marsha had her daily ventures and on one cold day, she came across a baby boy who had been abandoned in a cardboard box. She immediately responded as if he was one of her own kittens.
She climbed into the box to keep the infant warm while constantly meowing to draw people's attention that something was wrong.
A resident heard her meowing & thinking the cat was hurt went to check on her. Imagine her surprise when she saw the baby in the box.
The baby was quickly transported to the hospital where it was determined that he was healthy and in perfect shape.
As for Masha? She was hailed a local hero and showered with affection and numerous offerings of her favorite food.
Meet Koshka - The Military Cat
Sgt. Jesse Knott was stationed in Hutal, Afghanistan, in a military base that was also home to a handful of stray cats.
Among those strays, one particular cat stood out to Stg. Knott with his infectious personality and playfulness.
Sgt. Knott bonded with this cat, nursing his wounds & serving as his protector against the culture of animal cruelty in the area. He named him Koshka.
One day, two of Sgt. Knott's men were killed in a suicide attack, and he ended up spiraling into depression & began struggling with suicidal thoughts. He was getting so bad that he actually started planning his own suicide.
Koshka must have sensed something was wrong & wouldn't let Sgt. Knott alone with his thoughts; purring, rubbing his head against him, and patting the sergeant's face with his paw.
Just like Sgt. Knott protected Koshka from abuse, Koshka was protecting him from his own thoughts.
Then the time came for the troops to return home, Sgt. Knott could not leave the cat behind to live a life of inevitable abuse, so he arranged to take Koshka with him.
Koshka now lives in the United States with Sgt. Knott’s parents in Oregon, and Sgt. Knott visits him frequently.
You could say Sgt. Knott & Koshka found each other when they both needed rescuing.

An Oak Tree Called - The 'Emancipation Oak'
This live oak on the campus of Hampton University in Virginia has long stood as a symbol of perseverance, freedom, and education.
Over 150 years ago, this tree served as a classroom for Black men, women, & children who fled to nearby Fort Monroe to escape bondage during the Civil War.
After Union General Benjamin F. Butler gave shelter to fugitive slaves as “contraband of war” during the early days of the Civil War in 1861, crowds of ”freed“ people began to camp in the area around this tree.
Refugeed men, women, and children at Fort Monroe worked to transform the Union army’s tenuous protection into opportunity and freedom.
The sprawling oak served as the first classroom that newly free children and adults were allowed to attend.
These early classes were taught by Pioneering teacher Mary Peake, who held her first class under that tree on September 17, 1861 with “only about half a dozen” pupils, but within several days, attendance had grown to between fifty and sixty students.
Among her students was her own little daughter Daisy, five years old. The children learned to read simple lessons fluently in a very short time. When adults expressed an interest in education, Peake organized night classes for about twenty adults.
Mary Smith Peake then helped form The Butler School in 1863, which was constructed beside the tree. Over time, it became a powerful symbol for African Americans.
The American Missionary Association gave Mary Peake the use of Brown Cottage, where she worked and lived; it is often referred to as the first building on the Hampton University campus. Unfortunately, she was seriously ill with tuberculosis, which she had contracted before the war, but she continued to teach.
Mary Peake continued as the primary teacher at Fortress Monroe until she became too ill to continue. Her strong will to educate the freedmen and their children was no match for the hold tuberculosis had on her frail body. Shortly after Christmas 1861, she was forced to give up teaching and was confined to her bed.
Mary Smith Peake passed away on February 22, 1862 of tuberculosis.
In 1863, the first Southern reading of the Emancipation Proclamation occurred under the limbs of this Oak Tree. Now known as the Emancipation Oak!

The Elephants have run from the room as the Resistors CALMLY walked in singing, "We're not gonna take it, No, we ain't gonna take it, We're not gonna take it anymore!"
The Republicans have worked so hard, since President Biden took office, to make him fail. But they failed & the more they failed the more lies they told about him. But, they can't beat him down - He remains standing and he stands strong.
Daily they lie about him and blame him for everything that could go wrong. While they refuse to work with him and have NO PLANS for solving what they are complaining about. The crying Republicans just like to cry!
For decades the crying Republicans have never had real plans for the middle working class & the poor. Oh, but they do have plans for the wealthy, it's called "Tax Breaks."
Here's the 11 poorest states in our Country:
#1 - Mississippi (Republican)
#2 - Louisiana (Republican)
#3 - New Mexico (Democrat/Republican)
#4 - West Virginia (Republican)
#5 - Arkansas (Republican)
#6 - Alabama (Republican
#7 - Kentucky (Republican)
#8 - Oklahoma (Republican)
#9 - Georgia (Republican)
#10 - South Carolina (Republican +10)
#11 - Tennessee (They dropped from #10 in 2023)
10 out of the 11 listed are Republican run states.
The Poorest states in our Country are the Southern States where the biggest Crying Republicans come from. Maybe they should start doing some work and fix the problems in their OWN states!
Guess what states support those states? Democratic States. Good luck on a State Divorce. The Democratic States won't be paying you any alimony.
Which of those Southern States seceded from the Union back in 1861?
January 1861 - The South Secedes
When Abraham Lincoln was elected president, the South Carolina legislature perceived his election as a threat, since Lincoln was a known opponent of slavery.
South Carolina was the first to leave the union. They called for a state convention and the delegates voted to remove the state from the union. Their secession was followed by six more states:
Mississippi,
Florida,
Alabama,
Georgia,
Louisiana, and
Texas
Then the threat of secession was made by four more states:
Virginia,
Arkansas,
Tennessee, and
North Carolina.
These eleven states eventually formed the Confederate States of America.
Of the 11 Poorest states listed above, 10 are Republican States.
Kentucky remained in the Union.
8 of those Republican states seceded from the Union.
Oklahoma became a state on November 16, 1907. During the Civil War, most of the area of present-day Oklahoma was called the Indian Territory. The Five Civilized Tribes decided to support the Confederacy, and about 3500 Native Americans served in Confederate units. Two major Oklahoma units were the "Confederate Indian Brigade" and the "Union Indian Home Guard."
April 12, 1861 - The Civil War began. April 9, 1865, it ended.
Do you ever get the feeling they don’t realize the Civil War ended?

As the Elephants have their trunks tied in knots to the tails of the other Elephants and form a circle while backpedaling their bikes, the crowd is pointing their fingers at them as they sing along with Queen's song, "LIAR."
The elephants are trying to backpedal their way out of their latest lie about the '17 tapes."
Senator Ron Johnson - "Not only might the tapes not exist, but also that the foreign national who spoke to the FBI informant might lack credibility."
“Hey Ron - Maybe that's the guy who Giuliani crossed his palm with silver?"
Senator Chuck Grassley - "I don't even know where the tapes are. Now, maybe they don't exist"
“But Chuck - You started all this by saying they did!"
Rep James Comer - "I don't know if they're legit or not."
“James - Maybe they are with your whistleblower who's name you didn't know, who you didn't talk to, or maybe never existed."
Senator Ted Cruz -"The report alleges that these recordings exist. We don't know for a fact that that's true."
“But Teddy - You originally claimed they did."
Rep Matt Gaetz - "No one has actually heard the tapes and we don't know where they are."
“Mattie - Maybe because they actually don't exist"
Rep Jim Jordan - "We don't know for sure if these tapes exist."
“Oh Jimmy - That's not what you said before"
Senator Chuck Grassley, again - "We aren't interested in whether or not the accusations against Vice President Biden are accurate or not."
“Oh Chuck - In case you forgot, Biden is President now. So your saying, even if they aren't accurate, you're more interested in ruining Biden, period? Did we get that right? After all, you're the one who started this mess."
Rep James Comer - "We have another whistleblower that's different then the Rudy whistleblower. Unfortunately, nobody's had any contact with him for the last three years."
“James - We do believe you just like to say the word "whistleblower. Perhaps you should start a rock band called, "The Whistleblowers'', but be careful they do have a tendency to disappear."
Hunter Biden
Hunter plead guilty to:
➡️Two Misdemeanor Tax Charges for failure to pay his taxes.
➡️A felony firearm charge.
A Trump-appointed U.S. attorney for Delaware has reached a plea agreement with him.
These charges we knew about long before the Republican Clown Show of Investigations and they knew it also. They scream "Two Tier System." The investigation on President Biden and his son will continue, leading to more waste of Americans' tax dollars, while still not working for the American People.
Kevin McCarthy - “If you are the president’s leading political opponent, D.O.J. tries to literally put you in jail and give you prison time, If you are the president’s son, you get a sweetheart deal.”
Hunter Biden's Crime
Failing to pay his taxes & a felony firearm charge.
VS
Donald J. Trump's Crimes
Accused of espionage. Refusing to return top Classified Documents and showing top Classified Documents to people without a Security Clearance. Putting our National Security at Risk
Not charged yet: Causing an attack on our Capitol Building in order to stay in power.
The Trump Loyalist will go to any length to cover for him & his crimes!
They are using Hunter Biden to get at President Biden, they are attacking his son right before his eyes, IMO, to cause him more pain! They know President Biden did nothing. Attacking Hunter is just another way for them to attack Biden. That is just plain evil!

The Republicans' attack on President Biden over Ukraine. Where it all Started & Who Started It!
2019 - TRUMP held back money from Ukraine. He sent Giulani to Ukraine to get dirt on Biden; he knew that Hunter once worked there. In TRUMP's corrupt world, He thought Zelenskyy would lie in a report, and TRUMP would send the necessary money to fight off Russia. TRUMP was Impeached for his Quid-Pro-Quo.
2021 - CNN got their hands on a record of Giuliani trying to get Ukraine to give them information. That didn't happen
Below is a recording of Giuliani. Just listen to the video:
cnn.com/2021/06/07/pol…
Why did TRUMP want information? Because he knew Biden was the favorite & most likely would beat him in the 2020 election.
Sept 2020 - Ron Johnson, leading an investigation in Biden & Ukraine, closed the investigation saying he found “No wrong doing of Biden."
Nov 2020 - TRUMP lost the election.
Jan 2021 - TRUMP caused the attack on our Capitol.
Jan 2021 - Investigations on TRUMP & anybody involved started.
Aug 8 2022 - The FBI searches Mar-a-Lago, seizing 102 classified documents. 75 in the storage room and 27 in Trump’s office, including three found in office desks. TRUMP knew he was in serious trouble.
Nov 8, 2022 - Republicans won the House in the election. They continued on about Biden & Ukraine. TRUMP was working on revenge for losing the 2020 election and wanting the Republicans to stop all the investigations on him.
Nov 18, 2022 - Garland announces that he is appointing special counsel Jack Smith to take over the documents investigation. Again, TRUMP knew he was in trouble.
Jan 2023 - Republicans took over the House. Investigations started by the Republicans, Jim Jordan claimed to have 12 to 15 Whistleblowers. Turned out he only had 3 & they had NO information.
Apr 4, 2023 - Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg announced the indictment of TRUMP for falsifying NY business records, to conceal damaging information and unlawful activity from American voters, before and after the 2016 election.
May 9, 2023 A jury found Trump liable for the sexual abuse and defamation of E. Jean Carroll.
May 2023 - Jack Smith's investigation is heating up. Republican Rep Comer & Senator Grassley stated “We believe the FBI possesses an unclassified internal document that includes very serious and detailed allegations implicating the current President."
4 days later Grassley came out & said he believed the information was false. Then, Rep Comer comes out saying he has a Whistleblower, but all of a sudden the Whistleblower can't be found, nor does anybody know his name.
June 8, 2023 - It was announced that TRUMP was being indicted & had to appear in Court on Tuesday June 13, 2023.
Then Senator Grassley comes out & says the FBI has a report from a Whistleblower about 17 recordings or has 17 recordings of Biden running a money scheme in Ukraine.
June 12, 2023 - Grassley comes out again and says "Maybe they don’t exist" and Republicans question the legitimacy of alleged audio recordings of the Biden bribery scheme.
June 13, 2023 - TRUMP appeared in Court on the 13th Floor of the CourtHouse to enter his plea.
There is no Biden bribery scheme. This was all played out in defense of TRUMP and to deflect & distract from his corruption. Most likely with TRUMP pushing the whole thing.
There's more to the story:
The executive at issue was Burisma founder Mykola Zlochevsky. In 2020, former Giuliani aide Lev Parnas, said that Giuliani had met privately with Zlochevsky in 2019, in the middle of Trump’s effort to get Ukraine to announce an investigation into Biden.
When Zlochevsky was asked if he had any contact with Biden from 2013-2019 that was ever facilitated by Hunter, he replied, “NO ONE FROM BURISMA ever had any contacts with VP Biden or people working for him during Hunter Biden’s engagement."
Republicans have never come up with anything, witnesses had nothing or disappeared. This is just how low the Republicans will go to defend the most corrupt President this Country ever had!!
