"Robert Hur did not include Joe Biden (makes car sound) in his report."

Well, now I have to really question Hur's integrity, how could he have left that out?!?

LMAO

Rep. Madeleine Dean rocked the House, forcing Hur to read "the report you wrote," when it became obvious he would prefer to suck on a turd. She is my Hur Hearing Hero.

Trump's claiming he'd never heard of Beau Biden in a debate was one of hundreds of points where he consigned himself to hell, if there were a hell.

don't know if anyone listens to allison gill / mueller she wrote media podcasts, but apparently hur was also the one who moved for andy mccabe to be fired right before he was to retire with pension...

Hur's facial expression in the photo reminds me of one of the kids I work with at my special needs school. That's the exact face that this kid makes when I catch him not doing the work on his Chromebook that he should be doing (I have to watch him like a hawk). He's a sweet kid, unlike Robert Hur. Also, he's on the spectrum, unlike Robert Hur.

Garland is not getting the credit for KNOWING that Hur was a partisan hack; for appointing him anyway, to prove that (a) he doesn't run the DoJ as a political persecution bureau, like Bill Barr; (b) knowing if he tried to interfere with Hur's report before it came out it would look like Barr-style partisan interference; (c) knowing he'd get nothing and his slimy insinuations be torn to shreds by the Dems in congress. Too many people thinks winning means acting just as corrupt and authoritarian as Trump, but, y'know, we're the GOOD GUYS

What I hate is that the way that Joe Biden's loss of a child is just glossed over, or used as a point to score. It is a massive traumatic event and one that could have tipped him into a path that didn't involve becoming President.

And maybe, just maybe, Hunter's drug addiction and out of control behaviour might in part be due to losing a brother?

Expand full comment

Hunter's brain was damaged when his skull was fractured in the accident that killed his mother and sister. This itself is probably the main cause of his impulse-control and addiction issues, although growing up in the shadow of a brother who did all the things he couldn't to make Dad proud, and then died a martyr, surely did not help.

Anybody who doesn't have empathy for the trauma the Biden family has been through is disgusting (says a person with not insignificant family tragedy)

And isn't Beau the SECOND child Biden's lost? Wasn't there a daughter who was killed in the same car crash as his first wife?

I can't imagine the trauma. If I lost either of my babies, oh god. No wonder he's so supportive of Hunter.

"Robert Hur's Testimony Did Not Exonerate Him From Charges He's A Slimy Partisan Hack"

Oh, when will we get laws against slimy partisan hacks? I'm sure there would be some Democrats caught up by such a law, but the Republican Party would be more than decimated.

Expand full comment

Hitman Hur's conflict with Republican congress critters in this hearing demonstrates the failed state that is their party. Performances are backfiring right and far far right. They're fighting among themselves, running for cover, or quitting. Whatever is left of these losers, come November, we will crush Trump and his party.

I suppose I can consider myself "lucky" that my mom died the day before Mother's Day in 1997, and my dad died a week before Father's Day in 2001. (Yet I can't remember the actual dates.) So if I'm ever interviewed by some shitty political hack I can somewhat remember their deaths in the most personally painful way possible.

These fuckers are ghouls.

My father died in March 1994 and my first girlfriend in October and I would just as soon forget that whole miserable fucking year. I feel ya.

It was 2 days after the Hamas attack. Even I was a bit distracted and I’m not the leader of the most powerful nation on this planet.

also, honestly every day after 40 (there have been many such days after 40...) i require more and more corroborating evidence to remember the exact year. in my case usually a show i was in ('oh! i was doing 'titus'! must have been 2009!').

"Robert Hur's Testimony Did Not Exonerate Him From Charges He's A Slimy Partisan Hack"

...appointed by Merrick Garland.

Expand full comment

Speaking of Robert Mueller, has Merrick Garland bothered to look into the obstruction charges Mueller laid out in his investigation? Charges Mueller strongly hinted that the next honest attorney general should look into because Mueller could not charge a sitting president with crimes and accusing him without Trump defending himself in court was somehow unfair? Or investigating any other corruption we saw for four years of Trump in charge other than 2020 election issues that he wasted over a year before starting investigation into leadership and organizers.
