Pressure Grows for Judge to Reject Corrupt Hunter Biden Cover-Up Plea Deal;
Comer: Foreign Payments to Biden Family May Have Exceeded $40 Million

"This was organized crime," Representative Comer declares.

Members of President Biden's family may have accepted in excess of $40 million from foreign nationals in exchange for favorable policy decisions, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer suggested Wednesday.

The Kentucky Republican said that his panel has identified "six specific policy decisions" where Biden, 80, took actions that indicate he may have been "compromised," during an appearance on John Catsimatidis' "Cats & Cosby Show" on WABC 770 Wednesday.

Comer noted that of the six policy decisions, four of them "were made while Joe Biden was president early on -- [where] we cannot come to any other conclusion as to why these decisions were made, other than the fact that this president is compromised."

"This was organized crime. There's no other way to define it," Comer alleged

Pressure grows for the judge overseeing the Hunter Biden sham "investigation" to reject the corrupt plea deal until we can investigate the cover-up.

Pressure is growing in congressional, legal and media circles for the federal judge in the Hunter Biden case to reject a plea deal that would spare the first son from serving prison time after evidence has emerged from two IRS whistleblowers that a more serious criminal tax case was sabotaged by the Justice Department.

"I don't understand how any judge could bless this plea agreement now that all of this evidence of obstruction and DOJ and FBI wrongdoing has surfaced," Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., told Just the News. "So I hope this judge does reject this, and then insists and demands on an honest investigation and an honest prosecution as well."

...

Shapley said President Joe Biden's son was spared the more serious charges when the U.S. Attorneys in Washington D.C. and Los Angeles -- both appointed by Biden -- declined Weiss' request for an indictment and then the statute of limitations on the older alleged offenses were allowed to expire.

Weiss allowed those statutes of limitations to age out the 2014 and 2015 tax cases. Update: Actually, the allegation is that he contacted the US Attorneys in California and DC (where Hunter lived those years) to ask them to investigate these cases, and Biden's hand-picked Attorneys refused.

That's why Weiss wanted to be elevated to the level of special counsel, so he could pursue these charges in any jurisdiction without having to ask anyone else for their assistance or permission. Merrick Garland reportedly refused to so elevate him, and then falsely testified to Congress that Weiss had all the authority he needed to bring any case he wanted.

...

Famed Harvard law professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz, an unabashed supporter of Joe Biden, agreed there is good reason for Noreika to set aside the plea deal and seek to investigate the whistleblower allegations. He said it was concerning that the whistleblowers' testimony directly conflicts with Attorney General Merrick Garland's testimony there was no interference in the probe.

"If I were the judge on the Hunter Biden case, I would refuse to accept the plea bargain unless and until Garland and Weiss testify," Dershowitz told the John Solomon Reports podcast on Tuesday. "What they've said is utterly incompatible."

The Wall Street Journal published an opinion piece by Eileen O'Connor, the former head of the DOJ's tax division, that declared the interference Shapley's team faced was unprecedented and it was appropriate to "throw Hunter Biden's plea deal in the trash."

"Judges can reject plea agreements. That would be an appropriate disposition here," she wrote Tuesday. "And Congress, in fulfillment of its oversight obligation, must learn and share with the American public what evidence the IRS gathered, what evidence its agents weren't permitted to obtain, and what charges might have been brought if they had."

​Several members of Congress have told Just the News they are considering filing requests with Judge Noreika urging her to hold off accepting the plea deal though no has done so yet.

Regarding the 2014-2015 tax evasion cases that Weiss allowed to lapse:

Supervisory IRS Agent Gary Shapley told Congress in bombshell testimony made public Thursday that federal agents had evidence Hunter Biden had failed to pay about $2.2 million in taxes dating to 2014 and planned to pursue multiple felonies before they were thwarted by political appointees of the Justice Department.

That alleged interference, according to Shapley and a second IRS whistleblower, ranged from refusing to approve search warrants and specific indictments sought in Washington D.C. and Los Angeles to allowing the statute of limitation to expire on some of the more serious offenses.

The meddling was so extensive, Shapley said, "there is no way of knowing if evidence of other criminal activity existed concerning Hunter Biden or President Biden."

What IRS and FBI agents were certain of -- and career tax prosecutors signed off on after receiving a detailed prosecution recommendation memo -- was that evidence supported charging the first son with failing to pay large sums of taxes and in some years even to file tax returns, both whistleblowers asserted.

"The report includes itemized elements of each violation for each year. This recommended felony tax evasion charges, that's 7201, is tax evasion, and 7206(1) is a false tax return, also a felony, for the tax years 2014, 2018, and 2019," Shapley explained in his transcribed interview with the House Ways and Means Committee.

"And for Title 26 7203, which is a failure to file or pay, that is a misdemeanor charge for '15, '16, '17, '18, and '19," he also said.

Asked to summarize the magnitude of the unpaid taxes, Shapley did not hesitate. "Altogether it was around $2.2 million," he answered.

And this doesn't even take into account the evidence of money-laundering! Setting up a dozen front companies and having Russian, Chinese, Romanian, and Ukranian gangsters and oligarchs pay millions to Biden family members, to hide the payments from the IRS!

Jon Solomon learned from Peter Schweizer that Hunter Biden had bought Joe Biden a secret burner phone and was spending $300 per month for unlimited international calling on it. (Makes sense! Those calls to China and Ukraine add up!)

He wanted to know if Joe Biden was still using the phone, so he dialed up the number.

Joe Biden answered, and then quickly hung up when he realized it wasn't someone from his Business Circle calling.

Miranda Devine @mirandadevine

@jsolomonReports called Joe Biden's secret cell phone that Hunter Biden was paying for. "Boy was he shocked... He hung up pretty quickly."

Sure, these guys aren't co-mingling funds. Sure sure sure sure sure.

Megyn Kelly has been fuming about this. She reported something I missed -- whistleblowers report that David Weiss told them that he asked to be elevated to special counsel, which would give him the power to investigate all of Hunter Biden's crimes without needing additional permission from Merrick Garland, but Merrick Garland refused.

Meanwhile Merrick Garland has testified before Congress that Weiss has all authority he needs to pursue any charges he likes against Hunter Biden.

This is a lie. Either Merrick Garland is lying to cover up for his boss's crackhead whoremonger seed-spraying son, or two random whistleblowers are perjuring themselves for no reason.

Ted Cruz wants Garland to appoint a special counsel -- to investigate his own perjury before Congress and corrupt decision-making.

Bizarrely, Trump surrogate Ric Grennell says there should be no special counsel -- he says that Congress should just vote to impeach (a futile gesture, as the Democrat-held Senate would acquit him) and then "move on."

Oh, move on. Sure. Sure.

Yes, vote to impeach him. But also bring charges against him.

I swear, I do not know what the hell is ever going on in the Trump Brain Trust (and I use those words advisedly).
