War on Parents

See also: War on parents

The 'Biden/ Harris War on Parents became evident in October 2021 when chief procurator Merrick Garland of the Biden/Harris regime issued a memo directing the FBI and numerous other federal and state agencies to take “measures designed to address the rise in criminal conduct directed toward school personnel. The memo was a response just days after the National School Board Association (NSBA) wrote to socialist leader Joe Biden complaining about parents speaking out at school board meetings. The NSBA letter stated that parents’ protests and speeches at school board meetings “could be equivalent to a form of domestic terrorism.” The Garland memo's intent is to intimidate parents to not speak out at school board meetings against critical race theory. The War on Parents is a clear example of the politicization of the Department of Justice.

Biden impeachment

The Biden impeachment inquiry into bribery, corruption, and influence peddling was launched on September 28, 2023. Committee chair of the House Oversight Committee Rep. James Comer of Kentucky presided over the inquiry. Bank records for Hunter Biden, premier Joe Biden's son, and James Biden, Joe's brother, whom money was suspected of being laundered from foreign interests for the Biden crime family over a period of many years, were subpoenaed.

Appearing at the first hearing were Prof. Jonathan Turley of George Washington University Law School, Former Assistant Attorney General Eileen O’Connor in the DOJ Tax Division, Bruce Dubinsky of Dubinsky Consulting, and Michael J. Gerhardt for the Democrats.

Opening the enquiry, Speaker Kevin McCarthy, stating, recently House investigations "paint a picture of corruption" by Biden and his family.

Of the first steps the Bidens tried to take to derail justice was to send a letter out to the media with instruction.

Ukraine aid/FTX scandal

See also: FTX scandal

The FTX scandal broke in the days immediately prior to, and following the November 8, 2022 Midterm elections. Tens of billions of dollars in American Military Aid to Ukraine, which was allegedly to be used to fight Russia, was cash that Ukraine did not use to fight Russia, but instead invested into FTX cryptocurrency exchange. Ukraine received money from the United States, Ukraine "invested" the money with FTX, and FTX "donated" the money back to Democrats, who originally voted to send the money to Ukraine. The sham appears to be pure criminal money-laundering and criminal conspiracy to violate campaign finance laws.

The CEO of FTX, Sam Bankman-Fried, was the #2 donor to the Democrats in the 2020 presidential election giving $39.8 million, second only to George Soros, and said he intended to spend up to $1 billion in the 2024 presidential election. See Billionaire megadonors.

He reportedly also donated to the GOP. He claims, it was the same amount given to Dems. but didn't publicize it because reporters would ‘freak the ---- out.’

Rep. Ralph Norman of South Carolina told Breitbart News in February 2023 that Speaker McCarthy set the “gears in place” for conservatives on the House Rules Committee to strip Ukraine aid from the debt limit and continuing resolutions.
