If you played donny in in chess you’d have to swat his hands everyone he tried to put a chess piece in his mouth. He’s a simpleton. A dullard. The chances of him knowing how to play chess is so small it’s unmeasurable. He’d likely say he knows how. Then to prove it he’d ramble incoherently about “how much he likes the ‘horse’. That it’s a great horse. Blah blah blah something about how he knows a great horse when he sees one. Blah blah blah People like horses. They really do. People tell him all the time about their horses. Blah blah blah…” His fans would nod and clap like trained seals and insist it’s proof of his chess prowess. While the rest of the sane world would continue to wonder how he doesn’t drool on himself. The man is a moron of epic proportions.
The devil? You mean like cheating on three wives? Paying off a porn star? Inciting an insurrection? Facing 91 criminal charges? That kind of devil? It seems you have no idea what a devil looks like when it stares you in the face. Instead, you'll vote for it.

Biden’s Bookkeeper Is Latest GOP Witness to Blow Up Impeachment Claims
Eric Schwerin, who was also a longtime business partner to Hunter Biden, told a House committee he never saw the president benefit from his son’s business deals.
A former bookkeeper for the Biden family touted by Republicans as a whistleblower failed to blow the lid off the GOP-led impeachment inquiry on Tuesday, telling members of the House Oversight Committee a closed-door hearing that he’d never seen any evidence that the president had enriched himself through his son’s international business deals.
The witness, Eric Schwerin, also a longtime business partner to Hunter Biden, acted as a financial adviser to Joe Biden from 2009 to 2017, performing various administrative and bookkeeping tasks for the then-vice president. Schwerin also helped Biden prepare his taxes and annual financial disclosure statements, and had access to his bank records.
“Based on that insight,” Schwerin said in his opening statement to the committee, “I am not aware of any financial transactions or compensation that Vice President Biden received related to business conducted by any of his family members or their associates nor any involvement by him in their businesses.”
“In fact,” he added shortly after, “I am not aware of any role that Vice President Biden, as a public official or a private citizen, had in any of Hunter’s business activities. None.”
Schwerin called Republican claims of Biden’s corruption “preposterous,” saying that Biden had “always” been “crystal clear” in private discussions that he wanted to take the most transparent, ethical approach to his personal finances.
Schwerin was previously interviewed by Oversight Committee staff last March, when he told them much the same, according to Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD), the ranking member of the committee.
“House Republicans are about to begin the 14th month of this Trump-demanded fishing expedition,” Raskin added in a statement. “They have uncovered a mountain of evidence discrediting their own allegations, and they have failed to uncover any evidence of wrongdoing by President Biden whatsoever, much less an impeachable offense. Yet, Republicans have devoted more than a year to circulating lies and conspiracy theories in service of Donald Trump’s demands for political retribution and vengeance.”
Republicans have repeatedly accused President Biden of wielding political power to help his son in his dealings overseas, including in Ukraine, where—as the debunked conspiracy theory goes—he allegedly leaned on the government to prevent a corruption investigation into the Burisma gas company and protect Hunter, who sat on its board.
In speaking with the committee on Tuesday, Schwerin specified that Biden never took any action related to Ukraine to help Hunter’s work. Still, House Republicans spent hours questioning him about Burisma, according to a congressional source with direct knowledge of the interview.
Biden has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing in the matter.
Despite having interviewed Biden’s former executive assistant and at least two other associates of Hunter’s, Republican lawmakers have yet to produce any evidence of his supposed corruption and influence peddling.
Hunter himself is scheduled to answer questions in an Oversight hearing in late February, an interview he agreed to after resisting an initial subpoena and being threatened with a contempt vote.

Holy crap! And flushing classified docs didn’t help your crapper issue.

Special counsel charges FBI informant with lying to the bureau about Hunter and Joe Biden Alexander Smirnov, 43, disliked President Joe Biden, according to the Justice Department. He was arrested in Las Vegas after returning from a trip overseas.
Oh My. Lying to the FBI. I have an FBI agent in my family. He’s said many times, never lie to the FBI.

When you don't have any evidence simply create another conspiracy theory. Right wing media will help you spread it and your base will eat it up......
Comer takes aim at FBI after informant’s arrest: ‘Very suspicious’
House Oversight and Accountability Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) went after the FBI on Tuesday, in the wake of the arrest and charging of an informant central to the GOP’s allegations against the president.
Comer said that everything that he’s had “to do with the FBI has been very suspicious” throughout House Republicans’ probe into President Biden.
“The trust level that I have with the FBI is zero, Maria,” Comer said in an interview on “Mornings with Maria” on Fox Business with anchor Maria Bartiromo.
Comer also said all he and House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) knew about the informant was that FBI Director Christopher Wray had said the informant “was one of their most trusted, highest paid, in the bureau.“
“They had successfully used this informant to prosecute criminals in the past, and that he had been with the bureau over a decade,” Comer continued.
The informant, Alexander Smirnov, has been important in House Republicans’ allegations that Biden accepted a bribe. Republican lawmakers have often noted conversations that Smirnov had with the FBI about the head of the Ukrainian energy company Burisma telling him that he paid both Biden and his son, Hunter Biden, $5 million.
“As alleged in the indictment, the events that Smirnov first reported to the FBI Agent in June 2020 were fabrications,” the Justice Department said in a press release on the grand jury indictment.
“The indictment alleges that the defendant transformed his routine and unextraordinary business contacts with Burisma in 2017 and later into bribery allegations against Public Official 1 after expressing bias against Public Official 1 and his presidential candidacy,” it added, referring to President Biden.
Smirnov was arrested a little under two weeks ago at the Las Vegas airport. He faces up to 25 years in prison if convicted.
PROJECTION. Comer needs to be investigated, him and Gym Jordan should be in deep ish over this impeachment GOPer snafu and dealing with Russian plants. Both should swing for their Trumpism, J6 involvement, and generally being the biggest douchebags on the planet. The biggest losers/DBs next to Trump and sons of course.

Your feelings and opinions do not add up to facts.
So hang them, right? A firing squad would be way too lenient and lethal injection is out of the question. What about that thing they used to do in France, where they put their melons on lamp posts? Think that would help?
Jim Jordan defends Kushner after Hunter Biden raises Saudi deals
House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) defended former President Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner on Thursday after Hunter Biden, during testimony with House lawmakers, raised questions about his foreign dealings.
Jordan said the scrutiny of Kushner, who was also an adviser to Trump, was “ridiculous.”
“The idea that Jared Kushner did something wrong is ridiculous,” Jordan told Newsmax’s Eric Bolling during a Wednesday night appearance on “The Balance.”
“I mean, the Trump family has been investigated more than any family on the planet, and what they’ve attempted to do to President Trump and been doing to President Trump over the last seven years is unbelievable,” Jordan said.
Hunter Biden appeared for a closed-door deposition Wednesday, where he was grilled by Republicans about his foreign business deals. During the process, the president’s son flipped the question back on the GOP interrogators.
“He drew the distinction between what he has done in a business world with independent businessmen, versus foreign governments, which he did not do any business with — unlike Jared Kushner,” Rep. Dan Goldman (D-N.Y.) said Wednesday during a break in the testimony.
During his time in the Trump White House, Kushner oversaw Middle East policy. He secured a $2 billion investment from Saudi Arabia six months after leaving his Oval Office post, a deal that raised questions.
The scrutiny intensified after a 2022 New York Times report detailed how the Saudi sovereign’s advisory panel was not supportive of investing in Kushner’s private equity firm, pointing to “the inexperience of the … management.” The doubts were quashed by a bigger advisory board led by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, an ally of the Trump administration.
House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.), the other House Republican spearheading the probe into Hunter Biden, said in August that Kushner “crossed the line of ethics” by accepting a $2 billion investment.
However, Comer drew a distinction at the time between the two cases, saying Kushner secured the funds after leaving office, while Hunter Biden’s deals came through while his father was the vice president.
Democrats opened a probe into Kushner when they held the majority in the lower chamber. The investigation was dropped when the GOP took back the majority.
