• Off Your Radar

    From Mike Powell@1:2320/105 to ALAN IANSON on Mon Jun 19 09:04:00 2023
    The DOJ case against Hunter Biden (tax evasion and possession of a weapon by
    drug user) have been slow tracked for five or so years now.

    Nobody knows. The DOJ doesn't like to prosecute a sitting president, I wonder
    Hunter is covered by that too. I don't know.

    He is not covered, and Joe was not sitting President 5 years ago. He was
    only a potential Presidential candidate then.

    I see where Joe mentions the Biden family. You are the one that brought up Hillary.

    Hillary is long off my radar.

    And yet you are the one who keeps bringing her up when the rest of us are discussing the Bidens and Trump. Your radar must be tiny, like your mind.

    Yes he was. That was what they wanted. That was a success.

    Quid pro quo, which is considred wrong if others try it.

    Quid pro quo is not always a bad thing, unless you are doing something
    llegal

    Which they were.

    The Government of the USA wanted that prosecutor fired, and he was fired.

    That administration got him fired by threatening to withhold money which,
    he
    others do it, is considered wrong.

    Why is it the "Government of the USA's" business who is a prosecutor in another country?

    I don't remember now. It was long ago. It wasn't just the USA that wanted the osecutor fired.

    The correct answer is that they don't, yet Biden has admitted (in order to impress upon people that he had power as VP) to threatening to withhold promised funds until the deed was done.

    This is not something he should have done and he should be held to account.

    It is what the US government wanted.

    That does not make it right.

    The president and his vice president work toward the goals of the US gov't, no?

    Either way, I suspect that Ron's approach... don't even bother talking
    to him... is probably best. My only worry is that someone will read
    his nonsense, assume it is informed, and use it to form opinions.

    You are stating an opinion that I formed a long time ago -- probably
    before he dropped his last name from his postings.

    Hello Alan,

    [..]

    The president and his vice president work toward the goals of the US gov't,
    no?

    The duties of the president are clearly specified in the US
    Constitution. I'll let you and others read them at your peril.

    The duties of the vice president are also clearly specified in
    the US Constitution. Since there are none, I'll simply leave it
    at that.

    BTW, we all know Vice President refused to do his duty by
    defying Trump's order to defy the certification of electors
    on January 6 ...

    For Life,
    Lee

    I read that as "don't even bother talking to him" meaning talking to
    Ron. He rarely responds, and even if he does it is not responsive.

    As is his right, he talks to The Hand.

    Of course, you are also welcome to do the same.

    I read that as "don't even bother talking to him" meaning talking to
    Ron. He rarely responds, and even if he does it is not responsive.

    That is totally not true! Ron talks all the time! Almost nonstop!
    I do realize you are like most folks, being hearing impaired. But
    that does not mean Ron is being silent. Far from it.

    Ron talks to the Hand. And the Hand hears All. Remember that.

    He usually responds to me, even if we don't always agree.
