Indictments offer proof of Biden's lies about Hunter's deals

 American Update:

Hunter Biden’s indictment in California on tax charges turns up the heat on President Joe Biden, making it harder for him to dodge questions about “lies” he told the public, legal experts said Thursday night.

A federal grand jury in California indicted Hunter Biden Thursday on nine charges stemming from his alleged failure to pay more than $1 million in taxes between 2016 and 2019. While legal experts noted the indictment could shield Hunter Biden from his coming congressional deposition, multiple also said it will force Joe Biden to account for his repeated denials of the allegations contained in the indictment.

“If the facts in the indictment are proven, and based on Hunter’s previous abortive plea deal I believe they can be and will be, this indictment is further proof (as if we needed more) that Joe Biden lied repeatedly to the American people during the 2020 election,” former federal prosecutor and current Missouri Attorney General candidate Will Scharf said Thursday night.

“My son has not made money in terms of this thing about, what are you talking about, China,” Biden said during the presidential debate in October 2020. The indictment, however, lays out more than $7 million the younger Biden made from business dealings with entities in Ukraine, Romania and China.

George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley also said the indictment makes it “clear that the president has lied.”

“The fact is that this is a circle that is getting tighter around the president,” Turley told Fox News host Sean Hannity Thursday night.

The younger Biden is scheduled for a Dec. 13 deposition, which Republican Reps. James Comer of Kentucky and Jim Jordan of Ohio threatened to hold him in contempt of Congress over if he did not present himself. Turley said the indictment could mean this deposition is “effectively scuttled,” though it may make it harder for President Biden to avoid questions.

Joe Biden keeps acting like the guy who said, "Are you going to believe me or your lying eyes?"

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.

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
