Biden received funds from top Russia lobbyist before Nord Stream 2 giveaway

 Biden, Biden, China, China.

What they accuse others of doing, they are actually doing themselves. 

President Biden and his allies raked in campaign cash from a top Russia lobbyist in 2020, just months before his administration’s decision to scrap sanctions on a controversial firm building a Russian oil pipeline to Germany.

Richard Burt, a managing partner at McLarty Associates and a former US ambassador to Germany during the Reagan administration, ponied up $4,000 for Joe Biden in October 2020 and dropped another $10,000 in the lefty-aligned political action committee Unite The County in March 2020, FEC records show.

In addition to violating Biden’s own campaign pledge not to take lobbyist cash, the money from Burt is particularly noteworthy as he is currently directly engaged in lobbying activities for Nord Stream 2 AG.

“When Richard Burt donated to Biden Victory Fund, he failed to acknowledge that he was a registered foreign agent and was therefore ineligible to contribute,” A Democratic National Committee spokesman told The Post. “Because Burt also listed a different employer than on his [Foreign Agents Registration Act] registration, he was not flagged during our vetting process.”

The DNC said they had returned the cash on Thursday after The Post’s inquiry.

The Switzerland-based Nord Stream 2 — controlled by an ex-East German stasi officer and close ally of Vladimir Putin — is currently engaging in sanctionable activity, according to the State Department. Team Biden raised eyebrows, however, after declining to enforce sanctions, citing US national interests, Axios reported.

Critics worry the project will allow Russia dangerous influence over European energy supplies and increase their overall political leverage on the continent.

To build the pipeline, Nord Stream 2 has partnered with five European energy companies, ENGIE, OMV, Shell, Uniper and Wintershall Dea. Lobbying disclosure forms show that Burt is currently advocating on behalf of all five.

Burt ponied up $4,000 for Joe Biden in October 2020.

 

“To protect and further the company’s interests in the debate over natural gas as an element of European energy security and advise on Russia sanctions issues,” reads Burt’s disclosure for OMV under the area for “specific lobbying issues.” The other four offer similar language.

“Reading between the lines you can clearly see what that lobbying looks like,” Anna Massoglia, an Investigative Researcher at the Center for Responsive Politics told The Post. “While it’s not evidence of anything illegal. It’s just something that is evidence of how influence works in Washington.”

Burt, a longtime GOP donor, before switching sides in 2019, has long been a fixture in D.C. foreign policy circles. “He carries an air of great knowledge and wisdom and experience and he’s impressive when you meet him,” a former Trump official who dealt with Burt told The Post.

Burt played an early role in advising the Trump campaign’s foreign policy positions, and even helped the billionaire candidate craft his first foreign policy speech — something critics immediately leapt on as proof of untoward Russia connections.

“The revelation of Burt’s lobbying activity raises new questions about Russian influence in Trump’s campaign,” blared Politico, which cited extensively Burt’s work on Nord Stream 2 — a project Trump went on to consistently oppose as president.

“The sum total of Trump’s words and actions has only encouraged Russian meddling in our elections,” said California Rep. Adam Schiff in August 2020. “Insecure, unscrupulous and transactional, Trump is Putin’s ideal American president.”

Rep. Adam Schiff also received money from Burt.

In March, 2019, Burt gave a max out $2,800 donation to Schiff shortly after the California Congressman took the reins of the powerful House Intelligence Committee.

Schiff has not commented publicly on the Biden Nord Stream 2 decision.

Both Burt and reps for Schiff did not respond to request for comment from The Post.

RUSSIA, RUSSIA, CHINA, CHINA

For 5 years all we heard was Russia, Russia, Russia, referring to President Trump and the false allegations that he was a Russian agent.  This was all done and conceived by the Democratic Communist Party, since they were aware that if Trump was elected, he would expose the corruption within our government and the news media.  Well, that is exactly what President Trump did and all the Russia allegations we have since learned was BS, concocted by those in the FBI, CIA, DOJ and intelligence agencies in an effort to prevent these agencies from being exposed as collaborators in this Russia investigation and to get Trump impeached. 

But we now know who the real treasonous people in our government were and are. We had Congressman Eric Swalwell bedding down a China communist agent for a number of years while he served on the Intelligence Committee.  I guess intelligence is not a prerequisite for this committee.  We have since learned that the great patriot Hunter Biden was also bedding down a China communist agent while his father was vice-president.  We learned previously that Sen. Diane Feinstein had a China communist agent as a driver for nearly 20 years.  So China has infiltrated our government and we have not seen these collaborators removed from office or arrested for Treason. 

So, this brings us to China Joe Biden and what we now can call Russia Hunter Biden.  We know the two trips Russia Hunter made with his father, the then Vice-President to Ukraine and China was to make billion dollar deals and for some reason China Joe was unaware what Russia Hunter was doing.  Like if you believe that, I think there is a bridge in Brooklyn for sale. 

Now, this past week we also know that Russia Hunter set up a dinner meeting in Washington DC with Ukraine, Russia, and Kazakhstan he had financial deals with.  Previously, China Joe Biden has denied knowledge of what his son was engaged in even though China Joe attended this dinner.  Again, that bridge is still for sale. 

The guest list prepared by Hunter three weeks before the Café Milano dinner included Russian billionaire Yelena Baturina and her husband, corrupt former Moscow mayor Yury Luzhkov, who since has died.  Baturina wired $3.5 million on Feb. 14, 2014, to Rosemont Seneca Thornton LLC, a Delaware-based investment firm co-founded by Hunter and Devon Archer, a former adviser to Secretary of State John Kerry.  Oh! gee, Kerry’s names pops up again. I believe he was Secretary of State while much of this was happening.  But, nothing to see here.

So, we now know the real Russia, Russia, Russia connection was China Joe Biden and not Trump.  We might add these financial deals as well as the deals Russia Hunter made with China has brought wealth to the entire Biden clan.  But, will there be an impeachment hearing for China Joe, I doubt that.  Besides he is so mentally incompetent, he would not know what was happening.

Of course, in the middle of June, he will be meeting with Russian Premier Putin.  Now that should be interesting as Putin, a former KBG agent, will get to see firsthand what the rest of the world knows, that China Joe is not all there mentally and you can go about expanding in Europe with little worry about a US response. 

We now know that due to the financial deals that Russia Hunter made in Europe as well as China, the Biden administration is compromised on taking any action against any expansion Russia or China may have plan.   We see where Russia is not going to be prevented from their oil pipeline to Germany that Trump had blocked and China Joe has canceled the XL pipeline thus giving Russia a golden opportunity to expand their oil exports.  In addition by shutting down our mines that were digging for rare earth metals needed by our government, we now will have to import them and guess who has control over most of these rare metals.  None other than China.  So, now you see the connection between the Biden family and Russia, Ukraine and China.  The Biden family gets rich while the US gets screwed.

Naturally, the phony, lying news media will not report any of this in their attempt to keep the American public uninformed on what is really going on in our government and the corruption therein.  Corruption I might add is on both sides of the aisle.  Also, if you are a Trump supporter and white, you already know you are a racist and if black you are an Uncle Tom.  But, if you are a member of the Democratic Communist Party, you may very well be the savior of our country and you are deeply invested in bringing Marxism to our shores.  Our education system has been brain washing the students that we are a racist country and only Marxism can save us, just like it has in Venezuela, Cuba, North Korea and the former Soviet Union.  

Still waiting for Durham investigation and the Hunter Biden investigation.  Don’t hold your breath on the Biden investigation unless you have forgotten who is president.  By the way, who is the real president?  Is it Obama, Susan Rice since we know that China Joe recites what he has been told?  Has the basement been finished in the White House so China Joe will feel more at home?   Just asking.

DOJ Seizes $90,000, Charges Black Lives Matter Supporter Who Allegedly ‘Stormed Capitol,’ Sold Footage to News Outlets

 BY JACK PHILLIPS 

May 23, 2021 Updated: May 24, 2021

The Department of Justice (DOJ) seized $90,000 from a Utah man who sold footage of Ashli Babbitt being shot during the Jan. 6 Capitol breach, according to court filings filed by federal prosecutors.

John Earle Sullivan, a political activist who reportedly attended Black Lives Matter protests last year and who allegedly agitated rioters inside the Capitol, was also charged with new weapons charges, according to the documents unsealed last week.

So far, more than 400 people have been charged in connection to the breach, which occurred as members of Congress were voting to certify the 2020 presidential election.

According to the court documents, Sullivan portrayed himself as an independent journalist who was reporting on the chaos, but he actually encouraged other participants to “burn” the building and engage in violence.

Sullivan is accused of having a conversation with others who breached the building and allegedly told them: “We gotta get this [expletive] burned,” according to court documents in his case.

“There are so many people. Let’s go. This [expletive] is ours! [Expletive] yeah,” he allegedly cheered after he and protesters entered the Capitol, the DOJ documents said. “We accomplished this [expletive]. We did this together. [Expletive] yeah! We are all a part of this history,” and “let’s burn this [expletive] down.” The documents accused him of calling on others to burn the Capitol down multiple times.

At one point, he’s also heard saying, “I am ready bro. I’ve been to too many riots. I’ve been in so many riots,” the documents said. “It would be fire if someone had revolutionary music and [expletive],” prosecutors said Sullivan told others on Jan. 6.

Prosecutors furthermore alleged that Sullivan apparently broke a window inside and said, “I broke it. My bad, my apologies. Well, they already broke a window, so, you know, I didn’t know I hit it that hard. No one got that on camera.”

After leaving the Capitol later on Jan. 6, Sullivan was seen, according to prosecutors, telling another individual that he “brought my megaphone to instigate [expletives]” and wanted to “make these Trump supporters [expletive] all this [expletive] up.”

Sullivan recorded a video of the confrontation between rioters and police near the House chamber that included the shooting of Air Force veteran Babbitt and, according to court filings, bragged to a witness that “my footage is worth like a million of dollars, millions of dollars.”

Sullivan sold that footage to several news outlets for a total of $90,000, according to a seizure warrant. The news outlets were redacted from the warrant.

After the breach in January, Sullivan appeared on several corporate media outlets including CNN and MSNBC.

During his CNN appearance in January, Sullivan said that he was “not on the Trump side” or the “MAGA side” and alleged he was just there to document the incident.

Sullivan in July 2020 was arrested in Utah for alleged rioting, making a threat of violence, and criminal mischief because he engaged in a riot that resulted in the shooting of a motorist amid nationwide Black Lives Matter demonstrations last year. He was named as an organizer in a police affidavit.

“As a protest organizer, John Sullivan is heard talking about seeing the shooting, looking at the gun, and seeing smoke coming from it. John did not condemn the attempted murder nor attempt to stop it nor aide in its investigation by police,” the police affidavit said, according to the Utah-based Deseret News.

Later, on Dec. 28, Sullivan also wrote on Twitter that he supported an “armed revolution,” saying that it “is the only way to bring about change effectively.” His account was later suspended.

Using the nickname “Jayden X” online, Sullivan tweeted just days before the Capitol breach that the system should be burned to the ground while adding anti-capitalist, anti-Trump, and Black Lives Matter hashtags.

Black Lives Matter leaders in Utah earlier this year disavowed Sullivan, calling him a “loose cannon.”

And on Jan. 2, just days before the breach, Sullivan’s account wrote: “[Expletive] The System – Time To Burn It All Down. #blm #antifa #burn #[expletive]thesystem #abolishcapitalism #abolishthepolice #acab #[expletive]trump.”

Sullivan’s lawyer had no comment on the case when he was contacted on Sunday.

The man’s lawyer, Steven Kiersh, wrote in court documents that the government should not sieze his money, arguing, “The proceeds of the seized bank account are not the product of criminal activity alleged in the indictment” and that his client was being deprived of the money “in violation of the Due Process Clause of the United States Constitution.”

 

SPIFFBALLING ON A BRIGHT SUNNY MORNING

                                          SPIFFBALLING

ON A BRIGHT SUNNY MORNING

By E. P. Unum

May 15, 2021 

Just some random thoughts I wanted to share with all of you while sitting on my porch on a bright sunny morning in May 2021: 

1.        I find it fascinating…and humorous… that democrats consider themselves pure as the driven snow, and all of the unwashed nonbelievers like Republicans and anyone who disagrees with democrats are…wait for it…racists. That word is used far too often these days to the point where it loses any real meaning.  But I do seem to recall quite vividly 1964 when, on the floor of the U.S Senate, Democrats held the longest filibuster in our nation’s history…75 days…all trying to oppose and prevent the passing of one bill…The Civil Rights Act!  Their effort failed, and do you know who was at the center of that filibuster? None other than our current President Joseph R. Biden, the self- proclaimed champion of Black Americans. Remember his admonition to a black man during his campaign…”If you don’t vote for me, you ain’t black!” Fathom the hyprocisy!

 2.       I see where Coca-Cola supports Major League Baseball’s decision to move the All-Star Game from Atlanta, Georgia to Denver, Colorado in protest over the so-called tougher stand taken by the Georgia Legislature dealing with elections. Someone might mention that the next time you buy a bottle of coke and take a sip from it, you would do well to remember that the founder of Coca-Cola was Lt. Colonel John Pemberton of the Confederate Army’s 12^th Calvary. Maybe it is time for the rest of us to ban this racist drink? I do not drink it at all anymore.

 3.      I started to think about some historical tragedies and break them down a bit. This is how I organized my thinking: 

Who killed Abraham Lincoln                         a democrat

Who killed JFK                                              a democrat

Who killed Martin Luther King                     a democrat

Who started the KKK                                    democrats

Who owned slaves                                           democrats

Who supported segregation                           democrats

Who lynched blacks in the South                  democrats

Who interred thousands of Japanese

    in camps just because they were

Japanese but also American Citizens        democrats

Who started the Confederacy                         democrats

 

And who today in 2021 are considered Racists          Republicans 

Funny how that works, don’t you think? 

4.        So, let me get this straight. Today, in 2021,

● If you are white you are a racist, unless you are a liberal democrat. 

● If you are black in America today, you are black unless you support Donald Trump, then you are an “Uncle Tom”. 

● If you are part of a mob of people rioting and looting stores and burning down buildings, you are considered a peaceful patriot, and, most importantly, immune from the effects of Covid 19. 

● However, if you attend a Trump Rally, you are deemed a white supremacist who wants to spread the disease. 

● If you are an immigrant trying to gain entrance to the United States illegally, you will be welcomed with open arms, given food, shelter, a monthly stipend, health care, and free travel to points in the U.S.  You will not be subject to Covid testing, and you will be put up in hotels paid for by the U.S. Taxpayer. 

● But, if you are an American citizen, even a homeless Veteran, you will receive none of these benefits.  

Isn't that about right? 

5.        I wonder if anyone remembers Joe Biden saying that “Antifa are courageous Americans?”. Yes, he said that folks! I heard him! 

6.        Over the past ten years we have seen some tragic deaths in our nation which were quickly labeled the result of “police brutality” even in the face of a mountain of evidence to the contrary. Consider this:

Travon Martin was killed in 2012

Michael Brown was killed in 2014

Eric Garner was killed in 2014

Tamir Rice was killed in 2014

Sandra Bland was killed in 2015

Freddie Gray was killed in 2015 

Funny how all of these occurred during the Obama Presidency when Joe Biden was Vice President. In all of these deaths, police were found to be innocent of police brutality. So why are we heaping such praise and millions of dollars on the family of George Floyd, a career criminal, who broke the law time and time again? 

7.        I think our country will become a better place when we stop trying to pit whites against blacks, Asians against Puerto Ricans, and when everyone realizes that there really are only two kinds of people in the world…good people and bad people. Ethnicity doesn’t matter and never has. People should be judged on the content of their character not on the color of their skin as Martin Luther King so eloquently reminded us. 

8.        Imagine, if you will, a world in which every tweet must be analyzed and scrubbed for politically insensitive expression or offensive language and fact-checked thoroughly. But to suggest that this be done with voting is, well, racist! 

9.        The Washington Redskins are no longer called “Redskins” because suddenly after about 80 years the name “Redskins” is offensive. I’m just spiffballing here a bit, but the U.S. military has “Tomahawk” Cruise Missles, “Apache”, “Blackhawk”, “Kiowa” and “Lakota” Helicopters and Seal Team Six used the code name “Geronimo” when they killed Osama Bin Laden, but that same federal government….our government…objects to using the name “Redskins” for a football team. Wonder what will happen to the MLB Cleveland Indians, Atlanta Braves, and a rash of minor league franchises. Have we become that sensitive? 

10.   If people who worked on the Keystone XL Pipeline can, in the words of that pinnacle of virtue and would-be war hero, John Kerry, find jobs making solar panels, then people who are collecting unemployment can do the same. Right? So why do we need to provide them with supplemental unemployment income for the next four months? Isn’t it in the economy’s best interests to get these people back to work and producing goods and services rather than to continue on with subsidized governmental benefits? 

11.   With regard to gun control, here are some thoughts from the perspective of a hardened criminal:

 “I am a hardened criminal with a rap sheet as long as your arms held outstretched. I do not care about your gun laws because I do not buy guns in a firearm store. Background checks do not phase me in the least. If you focus your attention on law-abiding citizens and make it tougher on them to own weapons for their protection or for hunting, that is music to my ears. Keep taking guns away from good citizens, that is exactly what I want”. 

If an upstanding citizen gets into a fender bender accident, do you take his or her car away? Then, why take guns away from hunters and people looking to protect themselves from criminals?

China, taking over the world

In future, China will employ millions of American workers and dominate thousands of small communities all over the United States.  Chinese acquisition of US businesses set a new all-time record last year, and it is on pace to shatter that record this year.

The Smithfield Foods acquisition is an example. Smithfield Foods is the largest pork producer and processor in the world. It has facilities in 26 US states and it employs tens of thousands of Americans. It directly owns 460 farms and has contracts with approximately 2,100 others. But now a Chinese company has bought it for $ 4.7 billion, and that means that the Chinese will now be the most important employer in dozens of rural communities all over America.

Thanks in part to our massively bloated trade deficit with China, the Chinese have trillions of dollars to spend. They are only just starting to exercise their economic muscle.

It is important to keep in mind that there is often not much of a difference between "the Chinese government" and "Chinese corporations." In 2011, 43 percent of all profits in China were produced by companies where the Chinese government had a controlling interest.

Last year a Chinese company spent $ 2.6 billion to purchase AMC entertainment - one of the largest movie theatre chains in the United States. Now that Chinese company controls more movie ticket sales than anyone else in the world.

But China is not just relying on acquisitions to expand its economic power.

"Economic beachheads" are being established all over America. For example, Golden Dragon Precise Copper Tube Group, Inc. recently broke ground on a $100 million plant in Thomasville, Alabama. Many of the residents of Thomasville, Alabama will be glad to have jobs, but it will also become yet another community that will now be heavily dependent on communist China.

And guess where else Chinese companies are putting down roots? Detroit. Chinese-owned companies are investing in American businesses and new vehicle technology, selling everything from seat belts to shock absorbers in retail stores, and hiring 

experienced engineers and designers in an effort to soak up the talent and expertise of domestic automakers and their suppliers. If you recently purchased an "American-made" vehicle, there is a really good chance that it has a number of Chinese parts in it. Industry analysts are hard-pressed to put a number on the Chinese suppliers operating in the United States.

China seems particularly interested in acquiring energy resources in the United States.

For example, China is actually mining for coal in the mountains of Tennessee. Guizhou Gouchuang Energy Holdings Group spent 616 million dollars to acquire Triple H Coal Co. in Jacksboro, Tennessee. At the time, that acquisition really didn't make much news, but now a group of conservatives in Tennessee is trying to stop the Chinese from blowing up their mountains and taking their coal.

And pretty soon China may want to build entire cities in the United States just like they have been doing in other countries. Right now China is actually building a city larger than Manhattan just outside Minsk, the capital of Belarus.

Are you starting to get the picture?
China is on the rise. If you doubt this, just read the following:

# When you total up all imports and exports, China is now the number one trading nation on the entire planet.

# Overall, the US has run a trade deficit with China over the past decade that comes to more than 2.3 trillion dollars.

# China has more foreign currency reserves than anyone else on the planet.

# China now has the largest new car market in the entire world.

# China now produces more than twice as many automobiles as the United States does.

# After being bailed out by US taxpayers, GM is involved in 11 joint ventures with Chinese companies.

# China is the number one gold producer in the world.

# The uniforms for the US Olympic team were made in China.

# 85% of all artificial Christmas trees the world over are made in China.

# The new World Trade Center tower in New York is going to include glass imported from China.

# China now consumes more energy than the United States does.

# China is now in aggregate the leading manufacturer of goods in the entire world.

# China uses more cement than the rest of the world combined.

# China is now the number one producer of wind and solar power on the entire globe.

# China produces 3 times as much coal and 11 times as much steel as the United States does.

# China produces more than 90 percent of the global supply of rare earth elements.

# China is now the number one supplier of components that are critical to the operation of any national defence system.

# In published scientific research articles China is expected to become number one in the world very shortly.

And what we have seen so far may just be the tip of the iceberg.

For now, I will just leave you with one piece of advice -

Learn to speak Chinese -- You are going to need it! 

With Joe and Hunter Biden in the pocket of the Chinese, it looks like clear sailing, full speed ahead for China.

 

China Joe Biden’s Speech today, Thursday, on the pipeline problem

According to mumbles Biden, these hackers were based in Russia, but we cannot blame Putin.  I guess the Biden administration is clueless on Russia.  Nothing of this nature would ever be done without the knowledge of Russia’s President Putin.  For years all we heard from the democrats and the lying news media was Russia, Russia more Russia, but when it comes down to having evidence that this originated in Russia, the word is mum.  I guess the real Russia collusion is with the Biden, the democrats and the lying news media.  With that being said, we can expect more hacking of our infrastructure in the not too distant future.   Our enemies see how weak this administration is and now the door is open for more attacks.  With Susan Rice and Obama pulling the strings, silence is in vogue.  Don’t worry, be happy.   

Colonial Pipeline hacking. Where is the FBI intelligence agencies?

 We have been told for years that our entire electrical grid is vulnerable to hacking as this pipeline was recently.  So, with the pipeline company paying a $5 million ransom, we can expect many more interruptions of our energy supply chain.  With a weak Biden administration, this is the golden opportunity for all these ransomware hackers to enrich themselves financially while our government and the great communicator China Joe Biden just mumbles along.  The big question is: where is the FBI and our intelligence agencies in tracking down these hackers and preventing these attacks?  These attacks will continue now that a ransom was paid.  But, we can rest assured the FBI and CIA are doing their best in investigating former President Trump, his family and supporters that seems to be their primary mission under the Biden administration.  But as head of the energy department said: "If we were all driving electric cars we would not have to worry about gasoline shortage".  This is only a prelude to what you can expect with the Green New Deal.  Stupid is what stupid does, but in this case what stupid says.

Economy a mess, world in disaray, China Joe Biden clueless and told answer no questions. So who is the real President.

 So...Israel is on fire, war in the Middle East, Major US pipeline hacked, price of everyday goods is skyrocketing,   Russia is massing troops on the border with Ukraine. Ukraine is threatening to take Crimea back by force.  China is threatening Taiwan and its neighbors while also threatening our ships and Navy. N Korea is testing missiles again and restarting their nuclear weapons program.  Iran has been emboldened and making more than their normal threats.

 Our southern border is a humanitarian disaster caused directly by this administration, and the administration that promised transparency is hiding it and not letting the media have access.  Ford is closing a plant and moving it to Mexico after just bringing it back from Mexico because of the current Administration’s plan for increased taxes.
Price of steel up 145%,
Lumber 126%,
Wheat up 25%,
Food index up 25%,
Cotton 35%,
Silver 38%,
Copper 50%,
Soybeans 71%,
Oil 80%,
 Pipeline jobs lost. 
Wall construction jobs lost.
1.9 trillion in stimulus that funds the administrations pet projects and only paid a fraction to the people.
29 trillion in debt with 4.8 trillion projected 2021 deficit before the 2 trillion dollar stimulus proposed today for the new green deal. ️ 
9+% unemployment with millions of job openings that can’t be filled because federal unemployment assistance makes it more advantageous for people to stay home than work.  

 But hey at least no more mean tweets though ...️
