The GOP is truly full of shit

That whistleblower that Jim Comer couldn't find?
Okay, so you know how Comer and his band of dipshits have been hee-hawing for months about their top secret whistleblower? The one who can prove that Hunter Biden and Joe Biden took all the bribes from China? They couldn't produce him because REASONS, and in May our pal Jamie took his big square head over to Fox to tell that big airhead Maria Bartiromo that his informant was lost.

"Well, unfortunately we can't track down the informant. We are hopeful that the informant is still there. The whistleblower knows the informant, the whistleblower is very credible," he told the credulous Fox host, who briefly demonstrated signs of mild skepticism, before reverting to form.

"Who in the White House is intimidating these people? Do you know?" she gasped.

"I do know," Comer assured her. "We're saving that for a later time."

  Wonkette
Hahaha. They're not very good at making up credible stories.
[On July 10] that "informant" outed himself, running to that bastion of good journalism, the New York Post, claiming to be on the run from the US government, bent on silencing him.

Gal Luft, a dual American-Israeli citizen, headed a "think tank" called the Institute for the Analysis of Global Security in DC. In the video, Luft alleges that in the course of doing very serious thought leader stuff with a Chinese energy conglomerate known as CEFC, he discovered that Hunter Biden was also doing stuff with the company, but of the bad LOCK HER UP variety. He says that he blew the whistle last year to the FBI, after which he was indicted, made bail in Cyprus, and then went on the lam for his own safety.

[...]

To which the DOJ said "Bet!" and immediately unsealed the indictment against Luft.

[...]

Luft is alleged to have conspired to traffic weapons and Iranian oil, in addition to violating the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA). And while the weapons and oil may be more serious from a criminal perspective, Luft's FARA scheme is most interesting politically.

Broadly speaking, Luft coordinated with Chinese agents to pay former CIA Director James Woolsey to author pro-China editorials in Chinese news outlets during the 2016 election and its aftermath. Woolsey was then an advisor to the Trump campaign, and when Trump won the election, Luft and his Chinese backers were ecstatic.

[...]

[W]e can't help but note that Trump, whose supporters have been screaming nonsense about Biden's supposed ties to China, was being advised by a guy who was literally being paid by a Chinese agent to publish articles praising the CCP.
As we always say, every accusation is a confession.Continue reading.


...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
