Mainstream media no longer ignore Biden corruption

Thomas Lifson:

It took over eight hours for the biggest of the bigfoot corporate media to decide to publicize the evidence of Biden family criminality exposed by the IRS whistleblowers.  But when they did, they did it big time.   

The IRS whistleblowers heard Thursday by the House Ways and Means Committee provided devastating testimony about what Kimberly Strassel of the WSJ summarized as "blocked search warrants, tip-offs to Mr. Biden's team, squelched avenues of investigation, downgraded charges, and interference by Joe Biden's appointees" protecting Hunter Biden. The details show evidence of major crimes, including this doozy: "Hunter Biden Threatened 'My Father' Could 'Hold a Grudge' in Extortive Message to Chinese Associate Revealed by Whistleblower."

What's very interesting about the media coverage by the  major propaganda organs is that it took them a while to figure out what to do.  In the late afternoon, Eastern Daylight Time, Hans Mahncke, who had been watching for signs of MSM coverage of this gigantic story, published this tweet about its absence:

It looked a lot like the standard blockade of bad news for Democrats.

But then look what happened:

  • The New York Times: I.R.S. Agent Told Congress of Hunter Biden Invoking His Father in Business Deal
  • The Washington Post: IRS whistleblower says Justice Dept. slowed, stifled Hunter Biden case
  • CBS: Two IRS whistleblowers alleged sweeping misconduct in the Hunter Biden tax investigation, new transcripts show
  • CNN Whistleblowers say IRS recommended far more charges, including felonies, against Hunter Biden

The dam broke!  Hours and hours after the story broke.

...

These are the same publications that selected Biden over Trump.  That was a terrible mistake for the country that they seem to just now realize.  They still hate Trump and will be looking for another Democrat to push. I suspect they will not be supporting Robert Kennedy, Jr.  You have to question what took them so long to discover that Biden was a buffoon and a corrupt one at that.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t

Bin Laden's concern about Zarqawi's remains

James Robbins: ... Bin Laden suggests that President Bush should allow Zarqawi’s body to be returned to his family in Jordan, but this is a matter that is up to the Jordanian government, which so far has not shown much interest in facilitating a homecoming. Bin Laden mocks King Abdullah II, calling him a Coalition minion, and asking “w hat scares you about Abu Musab after he’s dead? You know that his funeral, if allowed to happen, would be a huge funeral showing the extent of sympathy with the mujahedin.” A large crowd would definitely turn out, though most people would be on hand to demonstrate their anger and disgust. Last November’s hotel bombings in Amman , masterminded by Zarqawi, are still fresh in people’s memory, and mentioning them to Jordanians has the same visceral impact as memory of the 9/11 attacks does here. Jordan has adopted a zero-tolerance policy towards those who choose to mourn the country’s least favorite son, and four opposition members of parliament who paid con
