The Hunter Biden Thread

What good is money and power if you can't spend it on friends and family?

The system is working as intended.


I really feel for the Secret Service members who get dog bites and just have to tolerate it.




The President's dogs are both still alive and biting. :salute:

This is mad sus to me; are there reports of the dogs biting anyone other than these Secret Service agents? I'm inclined to trust the dogs' judgment here.

I think you'd do well to be less interested in Hunter's penis, tbh. But it's a free web ^^

Marjorie Taylor Green put dick pics of Hunter Biden into the Congressional record so these are clearly issues of national import.

The illegal gun possession usually only gets charged if another crime was committed, usually involving the gun.

It was found in a trash can behind a store across the street from a school and vanished, so everyone was in a panic it might get used in a crime.

I do hope conservatives realize how utterly psychotic they appear when they say that laws allowing the police to seize guns from people with domestic violence convictions are a totalitarian violation of fundamental rights but then turn around and thunder on about Hunter Biden's gun charges. If you're a gun-rights advocate, the only principled position on Hunter's gun charges is that they are a violation of his 2nd Amendment rights. If you're concerned about those charges then you're a soy lib gun-grabber.
 
The gun tossed into a public bin? That's what a charge should be for. Coke heads are general all around winners in my experience. Totes the finest people.

But sure, Lex, it was an if statement. And I wasn't talking to any random Democrat anywhere with the post.

He's a piece of **** that had people clean up for him. If his daddy is president, then yes, congress should have some concern. Not enough to follow MTG, but hey, your kinks are your kinks.

If it can be shown that the President intervened on his behalf, maybe Congress should have some concern. Afaik the reason MTG pulled the stunt she pulled is that they have no evidence whatsoever of Joe's involvement in his case.

That would be why congress would look into it, investigate it, at least some. It's going to be a soap opera zoo and it's going to attract a specific type of reptile, like MTG, right?

But of course, we had to get this into The Discourse™ :D

It was a comparison to a type of "political discourse," not a standalone point, made to somebody with whom I have had that specific conversation over years. So no, we aren't entering and "The Discourse."

In theory maybe, but my view is that every single Congressional Republican is a reptile much like MTG, so I guess idk what else to tell you. I do not trust the Republicans in Congress to do anything in good faith. And I think they have investigated, found nothing of real interest or import, and are now just trying to keep Hunter in the news, wasting Congress' time in the process.

Didn't really read that way, the whole "high-earning" thing smack bang in the middle of IRL huge union actions involving high-earners. Smacked of a gotcha, given the qualifier. But nevermind. Just explaining the A to B of my posts here.

Just want to note, "involving high earners" is technically correct because obviously some actors who are union members make a lot of money but the average SAG-AFTRA member makes like $30,000 which is barely above the poverty line in Los Angeles...IIRC the average WGA member makes even less. And the strike is about, among other things, the prospect of most of these people being paid nothing because they're going to be replaced by AI, so....Please resume Hunter Biden discourse
 
Pretty sure I wouldn't pull out 30k a year strikers as high earning, nor have I. Gotta probably clear 60 to 80k before I even start getting snippy about the poor downtrodden professionals with thier American Dream single earner capable households.

60 to 80k, capable of being a single-earner household? Again, maybe where you live, but sure as hell not where I do and not in Los Angeles either.

There is always having the sort of neighbors you want and the Jones's to keep up with. That's pretty oldschool.

I am once again asking you to remember that the cost of living is not the same everywhere?

The inverse of this would be like saying since wages are higher in those places, one should grow their soybeans in LA or DC to make more.
 
Cars cost what they cost. Education costs what it costs. Prescriptions cost what they cost. Lumber costs what it costs, plus transport. Pretty much everywhere in the country. Now, I am absurdly sympathetic to the point that specific demographic centers absolutely screw everything up for nearly everyone. But I think that's kinda the jam on purpose. They'll be proud of it.

"The cost of living is actually the same everywhere and the only reason anyone pays more for things than I do is for clout" is certainly....a take

Try telling @Denkt that ;)

But gas doesn’t cost the same. Gatherings don’t cost the same, drinks are double when rent is double. Housing doesn’t cost the same. Labor, for which we always depend on one another, doesn’t cost the same.

You're confusing two sources of "economic value." One is a social and political construct, like many services though not all, the other is a real product.

Playing in the same economy, with the same macro costs, both real and political, is felt when it's a real product. The profit margin taken by the government leaves little room for inefficiency. You can see it in the bugs. I used to hit them like mad with my windshield. Now, with the economic growth enabled by technology and the pricing built into the market, both bugs and weeds don't work in the soybean monoculture. You're out of business, and somebody else will more aggressively enact the monoculture. The bugs are almost entirely gone. With them go the mice, the birds, the foxes, real outcomes serving the political demands of the populace regarding disparate costs of living. Government services need paid for out of something. Dead diversity plays its part.

When things get rough, Californians vomit forth and buy up Texas real estate. When things get rough, Texas girls wind up broke in LA. Both meme-common themes.

Denkt is cute and earnest and I like reading him, but I don't think he'd survive out of his natural environs.
