Re: How Russia hacked the Democrats email

Not to mention, 40 years ago The Donald Trump was a liberal Democrat.

... it did not matter. Russia identified Trump as a person of interest that they could cultivate. They had no idea he would 40 years later become President.

... soon all of the ruth will spill out and prove that Trump truly was the "Manchurian candidate".

In Russian culture, kompromat (Russian: компрома́т), short for "compromising material" (Russian: компромети́рующий материа́л, romanized: komprometiruyushchy material), is damaging information about a politician, a businessperson, or other public figure, which may be used to create negative publicity, as well as for blackmail, often to exert influence rather than monetary gain, and extortion. Kompromat may be acquired from various security services, or outright forged, and then publicized by use of a public relations official.^[1][2] Widespread use of kompromat has been one of the characteristic features of the politics of Russia^[3] and other post-Soviet states.^[4][5]


The term, always transliterated from Russian with the spelling "kompromat", is used in English, often related to Russian or Soviet use but also for compromising material used for blackmail in general.^[6][7]

... these Fox opinion hosts talk about China putting billions of $ into Biden's businesses. What businesses are they referring to?

... Trump is not a credible source as he will lie about whatever suits him.

... Joe Biden lives in a modest home and lives a modest lifestyle. Where is the money?

... other than Fox News opinion hosts accusing Biden of accepting money from China, offering no source for their claims what other evidence do you have?

Trump’s Claims About Hunter Biden in China


Trump's Claims About Hunter Biden in China - FactCheck.org

... Hunter Biden is not the first child of a prominent politician to be accused of having ties to a company doing business with a foreign country. Indeed, similar questions have been raised about Trump’s own family members.

... Biden’s attorney claims that Hunter Biden made no money off the deal while his father served as vice president, and has yet to see any return on his investment. We cannot verify either statement, and we can’t say how much Hunter Biden might ultimately make from his 10% stake in BHR. But while Trump has called on China to open an investigation, there has been no evidence presented to date that suggests either Biden did anything illegal.

... all of the these old unsubstantiated claims you dredge up have nothing to do with a young Trump being groomed as a Russian asset and is an obvious attempt at misdirection.

Hunter is under investigation by the FBI for his deals with China. Joe is now comprised because China has dirt on Hunter and will make Joe Biden their puppet.


Federal criminal investigation into Hunter Biden focuses on his business dealings in China




(CNN)After going quiet in the months before the election, federal authorities are now actively investigating the business dealings of Hunter Biden, a person with knowledge of the probe said. His father, President-elect Joe Biden, is not implicated.

Now that the election is over, the investigation is entering a new phase. Federal prosecutors in Delaware, working with the IRS Criminal Investigation agency and the FBI, are taking overt steps such as issuing subpoenas and seeking interviews, the person with knowledge said.
Activity in the investigation had gone covert in recent months due to Justice Department guidelines prohibiting overt actions that could affect an election, the person said.
CNN contacted Biden's attorney and the campaign this week seeking comment about the investigation. On Wednesday, they released a statement acknowledging the probe.


"I learned yesterday for the first time that the U.S. Attorney's Office in Delaware advised my legal counsel, also yesterday, that they are investigating my tax affairs. I take this matter very seriously but I am confident that a professional and objective review of these matters will demonstrate that I handled my affairs legally and appropriately, including with the benefit of professional tax advisors," Hunter Biden said in a statement.
Investigators have been examining multiple financial issues, including whether Hunter Biden and his associates violated tax and money laundering laws in business dealings in foreign countries, principally China, according to two people briefed on the probe.

Some of those transactions involved people who the FBI believe sparked counterintelligence concerns, a common issue when dealing with Chinese business, according to another source.
The investigation began as early as 2018, predating the arrival of William Barr as US attorney general, two people briefed on the investigation said. The existence of the probe will present an immediate test of Biden's promise to maintain the independence of the Justice Department.
Sinclair Broadcast Group reported in October that the FBI had opened a criminal investigation into Hunter Biden. CNN has learned new details about the scope of the probe, including that it is focused on China.

A mysterious laptop


Hints of the investigation emerged after President Donald Trump's personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani, helped orchestrate news stories centered on a laptop purported to belong to Hunter Biden and said to include his business documents and other personal material.
The FBI took possession of the laptop in late 2019, according to a computer repairman in Delaware who showed reporters a copy of a subpoena. The subpoena is real, according to people briefed on the matter, but the FBI and prosecutors in Delaware have refused to confirm the existence of the investigation.
It's unclear whether the laptop's contents are relevant to the ongoing federal probe and whether investigators can even use them, given potential chain of custody requirements for evidence.
CNN has previously reported that at least some of the information Giuliani claims came from the laptop appears similar to information that was being shared by others last year in Ukraine, according to one witness who the FBI has approached for information. Giuliani's efforts to dig up dirt on the Bidens in Ukraine last year were at the heart of Trump's impeachment. The current investigation into Hunter Biden appears to predate those efforts.
The involvement of Trump lawyers in the published news stories on the purported Biden laptop led to a flurry of activity by Republican lawmakers and the Trump campaign looking to amplify allegations of corruption ahead of the election. The FBI met with a former Hunter Biden business associate who publicly made claims about potential wrongdoing. The FBI issued a statement at the time saying that "as a general matter when contacted, the FBI reviews information from the public for consideration of any violations of applicable federal laws."
The political implications of the probe already have been an issue in recent months for Barr, who was under public pressure from Trump to make Hunter Biden's business activities an election issue. To date, the investigation doesn't involve any allegations of wrongdoing by the President-elect, according to the two main sources briefed on the matter. Barr has said publicly the elder Biden was not under investigation, despite a public campaign by Trump urging Barr to announce a corruption probe of both Bidens.






In an interview with CNN's Jake Tapper last week, President-elect Biden pledged to maintain an independent Justice Department free of political influence.
"I'm not going to be telling them what they have to do and don't have to do. I'm not going to be saying, go prosecute A, B or C," Biden said.
"That's not the role -- it's not my Justice Department. It's the people's Justice Department.
"The person or persons I pick to run that department are going to be people who are going to have the independent capacity to decide who gets prosecuted and who doesn't," said Biden.
Republicans in Congress are almost certain to seize on the existence of the probe to further their argument that Hunter Biden's activities in China are a sign of his father's conflict of interest when it comes to dealing with foreign policy with Beijing.
It's also likely going to be an issue that Biden's attorney general nominee will have to face during a Senate confirmation hearing.
Trump faced a similar, but much thornier, problem after taking office in 2017 when his then-attorney general, Jeff Sessions, quickly had to recuse himself from overseeing the federal investigation of the Trump campaign and possible links to Russian interference in the 2016 election.
Sessions was part of the President's election campaign and he held meetings with the then-Russian ambassador, which became part of the FBI's investigation.
Biden's likely attorney general candidates aren't known to have such entanglements.
