Media Busts Out “But Trump” Excuse Amid Mounting Biden Scandals

One of House Republicans’ first steps after regaining the majority was to launch an investigation into President Joe Biden’s role in the Biden family’s lucrative pay-to-play business. Corporate media, however, are trying to distract from the first family’s scandals by conflating them with the conduct of the Trump family.

The Washington Post published an article last week, during the height of buzz about the House Oversight Committee’s investigation into the Biden family’s influence-peddling operation, pointing the corruption finger at former President Donald Trump and his son-in-law Jared Kushner.

“An investment fund overseen by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is backing ventures that profit the former president and his senior adviser, raising questions of conflict,” This is what the article says.

Within days of the report’s publication, corporate media outlets such as CNN, MSNBCYou can even get it! Rolling Stone They featured anti-Trump information in their pages and networks.

Amplifying the report serves two purposes. First, it gives the media and their Democrat allies more ammo against Trump’s third presidential run. The Washington Post says so:

Now that Trump is running for President again, national security experts and former White House officials are concerned that Trump and Kushner may have used their offices to profit from the relationship with the Saudis.

Second, reports about the Trumps give anyone looking to escape conversations about the Biden family’s well-documented history of enriching their bank accounts with funds from foreign oligarchs an excuse to pivot to their favorite scapegoat.

Already, leftist commentators claim that the Biden family is being attacked by them “deserves grace,” The Trumps merit investigation. Despite the numerous allegations, Real reports Permanent federal investigations into the Biden family’s affairs, MSNBC’s Mehdi Hasan even bizarrely asserted there is “no real evidence” that the Biden family business leveraged Joe Biden’s status for personal profit.

The Political Enemy Playbook

Even before Trump’s White House tenure, the corporate media did everything in their power to make him look like a corrupt politician who was sold out to foreign governments. When they weren’t amplifying the Russia hoax, a fake scandal created and paid for by Democrats, the propaganda press scrutinized Trump’s tweets, twisted his words, and tried to undermine his presidency with lies that won Pulitzers.

They also helped Democrats organize two sham impeachments of Trump, who they claimed was guilty for treason. These political attacks were sustained with plenty of negative press coverage of Trump’s sons, daughters, and son-in-law.

Where was the media’s outrage about White House familial corruption when Hunter exploited his father’s political reputation to strike business deals with oligarchs in Ukraine and China and then likely A cut was made His dad? Joe Biden is the epitomai and youngest son of his father? Corruption and scandal The corrupt corporate media and Democrats want Trump and his family dead.

Yet publications such as The Washington Post And The New York Times Worked overtime Downplay To save the Biden patriarch, and to avoid criticism and loss in 2020 elections, we mischaracterize the findings.

They didn’t want the public to know that when Biden was vice president and overseeing the Obama administration’s Ukraine relations, Hunter received a A staggering $50,000 per month He was not qualified to serve on the board for a Ukrainian energy company. They didn’t want the public to hear that Hunter also Millions of dollars were raked in from the wife of the former Moscow mayor, and they certainly didn’t want Americans to discover that just two weeks after he traveled to communist China on his dad’s Air Force Two jet, Hunter helped his Chinese business partners secure a deal that gave them control of a cobalt mine in Congo.

For the media, it was not politically advantageous to expose that “an arm of the Chinese government” funneled Hunter received money directly from a company to compensate him for providing legal representation to Dr. Patrick Ho Chi Ping who is the vice-chairman of Chinese energy company CEFC. “spy chief of China.” They had no good reason to communicate with Ho, who was Arrest and ChargeEventually, he was convicted and sentenced for spending millions of dollars on his own. “bribe top officials of Chad and Uganda in exchange for business advantages for CEFC,” made a phone call to James Biden, Joe’s brother.

Instead of covering bombshell news about the questionable acts of a tight-knit family The propaganda media is still fixated on Donald Trumps, whose patriarch is in charge the U.S. government.

When they aren’t going after the former first family, the media They are amplifying the current president’s excuses and shilling for his son, who admitted through his lawyers that the infamous laptop exposing the Biden family’s foreign dealings was his. They claim that the investigation was a fraud. Over And Over And Over And Over And OverIt is politically motivated. But it’s not.

It’s About Joe, Stupid

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., has repeatedly declared Republican investigators are interested in Joe Biden’s “knowledge of and role in his family’s foreign business deals to assess whether he has compromised national security,” Hunter is not the right word.

“Evidence obtained in our investigation reveals the Biden family business model is built on Joe Biden’s political career and connections. Biden family members attempted to sell access around the world, including individuals who were connected to the Chinese Communist Party, to enrich themselves to the detriment of American interests,” Comer  Last week, in a statement. “If President Biden is compromised by deals with foreign adversaries and they are impacting his decision making, this is a threat to national security.”

Despite the corporate media’s attempts to distract from, stifle, and smear Republicans’ investigation into the Biden family business by going after Trump again, the GOP can’t give up. This legitimate, evidence-based investigation, unlike the one in which Democrats used their partisan network against Trump to paint him as a Russian asset is crucial to determine if U.S. security has been compromised from the top.
