A poll released by Investor's Business Daily/TIPP reveals that 57% of the
respondents approve of an investigation of Joe and Hunter Biden regarding
the Ukraine scandal. Only 37% oppose.

The poll, needless to say, concerns the deepening scandal involving Hunter's
deal with Burisma, a natural gas company that stands as one of the most
corrupt corporations on the face of the Earth (it is now the subject of 15
investigations in Ukraine alone). Hunter, an ex-Navy officer cashiered for
cocaine use, had no expertise in fossil fuels, international trade, or
anything else that might interest a legitimate company. When an
investigation by a Ukrainian prosecutor threatened to draw attention to the
relationship, papa Joe, in his role as the Obama administration's point man
on Ukraine, swooped in and had the prosecutor, Viktor Shokin, fired.

The poll results reveal that concerted legacy media attempts to cover up for
the Bidens have failed miserably. The sparse media coverage has often
featured overcomplicated explanations blatantly intended to confuse the
issue and festooned with lines such as "nothing has been proven," "Biden's
reputation is spotless," and "Orange Man come." Clearly, none of this has
had any effect whatsoever. The Biden corruption scandal is one of the rare
cases in which the public sees clearly to the heart of the matter.

Same as I asked you before (and you ignored),

And somehow Baxter, you think Hunter Biden's big paydays
as a director for a Ukrainian Petroleum company
while his father was the POTUS Obama's VP,
and while the father was given primary responsibility
for relations with Ukraine,
was not corruption?

What talent did he have? (Other than being his father's son!)

The Democratic Parties status quo was corruption.

The curious case of the incurious press.

"So what happened? How did we reach the point where journalists
presented with a major scandal -- an almost self-evident abuse of power
-- just yawn and turn away?"

The press had ignored Biden's statements and admissions, but
"They instantly flew into an involuntary frenzy and chased after
Trump and his supporters with stingers at the ready.---

Remarkably, the public confession of former Vice President (and
soon-to-be former 2020 Democratic front-runner) Joe Biden that he had
applied pressure to the former Ukrainian president in order to get a
prosecutor fired attracted zero interest from the lethargic newshounds
at CNN, MSNBC, the New York Times and the Washington Post."

the key support
"If you need irrefutable evidence of the curious lack of curiosity in
the mainstream media, you need look no further than Peter Schweizer, the
author of “Secret Empires: How the American Political Class Hides
Corruption and Enriches Family and Friends.” Chapter 4 of that book is
titled succinctly “Bidens in Ukraine.”

Schweizer recently sat for an hour-long interview with Levin on “Life,
Liberty & Levin,” where he talked about the extensive evidence of
corruption against the Bidens. If you want a real whistleblower,
Schweizer is your man.

As vice president, Joe Biden had oversight of U.S. relations with just
two countries for the Obama administration — Ukraine and China. As we
now know, Hunter Biden had lucrative contracts with companies in both of
those countries, but let’s just focus on Ukraine and the energy company
named Burisma that hired the younger Biden as a consultant, adviser and
board member.

“What’s important … to note,” Schweizer told Levin, “is that Hunter
Biden has no background in energy, he has no background in Ukraine. He’s
being hired to help them with regulatory compliance. I don’t know how
he’s going to help them with that, but that’s really not the reason he
was hired.”

He was being paid $83,000 a month by Burisma, which Schweizer says is
“probably the most corrupt company in Ukraine” and was founded by an
oligarch with funds stolen from the Ukrainian government. The rest of
the story, as told by Schweizer:

“The point is that Hunter Biden joined forces with a very corrupt
oligarch, got a big payday, and he got a payday that he didn’t deserve …
because he wasn’t selling his expertise. He had none, and the key
question here that no one seems to want to ask in the media is, ‘What
was he being paid for?’ He wasn’t being paid for his expertise. What was
he being paid for, and what were the Ukrainians expecting to get in
return? And I think when you overlay the financial payments with the
fact that Joe Biden is point person on Obama administration policy to
Ukraine, was steering billions of dollars of Western money to Ukraine,
it becomes crystal clear exactly why they were paying him money. They
wanted access and they wanted to influence Joe Biden. And Joe Biden’s
been around a long time and he had to know exactly why his son was being
paid this money.”

Sadly, the Washington press corps has displayed no such awareness."

Hmmm . . . . so he's . . . not?

Didja find a cartoon about Hunter, his father, and all Repubs and Dems being corrupt?

'Cause that would be more accurate.

Not that you're interested.

Partisans claim their party is pure and the other isn't. Then they die. And nothing changes.
