What this actually proves is that Hunter Biden made good on a loan from his father, and kept track of these repayments on an actual spreadsheet.
No wonder Republicans are so upset, this might establish a precedent that people ought to repay loans, and not just leave others on the hook for them
That’s what they already think. See student loans and Biden.
And here I thought they were for predatory loans driving people into bankruptcy but not allowing them to offload the debt unless it's a corporation.
See Biden and student loan forgiveness.
Yes. As I said to someone else, it’s all hypocritical. The republicans only care about how they serve themselves and the narrative will always be whatever helps them get what they covet.
And you think it's hypocritical that Democrats are trying to do something to help Americans struggling with student loans? Your logic is not clear.
I literally did not say that at all. I was commenting on the republican side of things.
I personally think it’s fine, and owed, to give student loan debt relief. That is not full wipe outs for everyone, it’s a helpful token that helps everyone. Businesses and wealthy always get the kickbacks but struggling people get one little bone and others throw a hissy fit.
Which paradoxically differs from how they view PPP loans. Or is it hypocritically?
It’s all hypocritical. They just want to get theirs and fuck everyone else. Whatever form that takes, well, they support it.
Student loans are, by definition, for education and education prevents conservatives.
Clearly, the Republicans must impeach Biden now. Do you know how much this could hurt Trump if "people have to pay back their debts" catches on?!!!
Clarence Thomas is whistling as he passes by.
Brett Kavanaugh is sobbing as he passes by.
Calendar clutched, alcohol soaking into his anus.
Not quite. Tehy want people to mostly repay loans, but clearly not rich people!!!
So... wait... if Hunter was so low on cash that his dad was having to cover his car loan, and Hunter repaid back that money... then doesn't that mean he WASN'T getting millions and millions from China?
You're expecting this to be rational.
So Hunter paid Joe about $4100 over three months when neither of them were government employees or office holders.
Next they'll bring out evidence Joe paid for hunter's orthodontics in 82 and that proves they've been in cohoots the whole time.
No way, these people are exchanging gifts like they're family or something. What has this world become?
What, giving gifts to family instead of stealing from them?!?
#NotMyPresident
You mean to say their blatant attempt to finger point and shift focus away from their party's misdeeds turned out to be nothing?
Shocked.
Let's be fair, I can see how Republicans would find it unusual or strange to pay back a debt.
Or that an exchange of money can be done without needing to cover something up
how much time and money have been wasted on this effort lead by conservatives?
It's not wasted if it gets their constituents to vote for them.
Don’t call them conservative, they don’t conserve fucking shit.
I like to refer to them as Republicunts, but I switch it to Republicants when I want to be polite.
I call them Regressives. They're trying to speedrun back to the Dark Ages.
Extremist Reactionaries or Regressives works for me.
terrorists and saboteurs seem to fit more and more with each passing day
More of both than it would take to keep medicare, medicaid and social security solvent in perpetuity.
universal healthcare would be cheaper than what we pay now.
but both conservatives and democrats dont want universal healthcare.. now go figure out why
I WAS actually going to say "more than the transition to universal single payer healthcare would cost, after which it would be cheaper than the current system of paying trillions to private insurers for denying as much care as they possibly can", but I could come up with a concise with better punctuation way of saying it 😁
i like to put it this way and have people try and make it not sound terrible:
health insurance profits only come at the expense of human suffering.
repeat it. shout it. because its the truth no one wants to say out loud.
Haven't gotten to use this one in a while 
Worthless fucking degenerates.
It's disappointing how the selective omission of information can make something innocuous seem so damning.
Hunter Biden's whole life was turned inside and out in 2014 when he joined the board of Burisma. The Republicans tried to make it a scandal then but he was cleared of any wrongdoing or nepotism by the Office of Government Ethics in 2014. I literally cannot even find those stories anymore because of how the media resurrected the story and saturated the public record to create a fake scandal. Like yeah, he probably got the job because of his last name, but the only reason Burisma wanted his last name is because this was a company dedicated to the sole goal of getting Ukraine off of dependence on Russian oil and for that it needed credibility in the West, who cares about that?
I want to comment on that website. Did it just back load 3 or 4 more articles i had to back out of to leave the site? thats fucking new... It used those weird blue bars to hide the loading i think?
