President Joe Biden lied repeatedly when he claimed he knew nothing of his son Hunter Biden’s influence-peddling businesses.
The president further prevaricated that he had no involvement in Mr. Biden’s various shakedown schemes.
Yet, the media continued to misinform by serially ignoring these facts.
Had journalists just been honest and independent, then-candidate Joe Biden might have lost a presidential debate and even the 2020 election. The public would have learned that Mr. Biden’s business associates and his laptop proved that Joe Biden was deeply involved in his son’s illicit businesses.
Later, as the evidence from IRS whistleblowers mounted, the White House stonewalled subpoenaed efforts and sought to craft an outrageous plea deal reduction in Mr. Biden’s legal exposure.
Reporters ignored the Ukrainians who claimed that President Biden himself talked to them about quid pro quo arrangements.
They again discounted the laptop that explicitly demonstrated that Mr. Biden was whining that he had handed over large percentages of his income to his father—variously referred to as “the Big Guy” and a 10 percent recipient on many deals.
They played dumb about President Biden’s use of pseudonyms and alias email accounts to hide thousands of his communications to his son and associates.
They attacked former Ukrainian Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin, who now claims that President Biden was likely bribed by Ukrainians.
