Hunter Biden took ownership of the crimes he's accused of. Why can't the GOPers see that, and move on?

 You know by now that Hunter Biden, son of the President, agreed to a plea deal which enables him to plead guilty to two misdemeanor counts of tardy tax returns, let's say. Not quite income tax evasion, per se, and there's also a charge of illegal firearm possession while under the influence of drugs. They're talking probation, zero jail time.

We know that Biden was thinking that maybe that will get the conservative peabrains, like James Combover and Fibber Jordan, off his back. Nope. Combover still wants to investigate Biden for business deals with Ukraine. Bear in mind, President Joe Biden had the option to remove the special prosecutor assigned by his predecessor, Donald Trump, but chose not to, and David Weiss did his job.

In other words, the Bidens are owning the situation. Republicans, especially the extreme right wing dingbats like Combover, Jordan, Empty-G, Hee-Hawley, and, of course, Trump, are having a collective cow over it.


"WAAAHHHH! He's getting off with a slap on the wrist! I'm getting persecuted! WAAAHHHHH!"

The big difference, of course, is that Hunter Biden is being charged with two misdemeanors, while the oldest immature child in America is facing felonies. His crimes are a little more severe than Biden's, and yet he and his followers in Congress whine like babies over a misperceived double standard.

Not only that, but there was a near catfight between Empty-G and Lauren Balloon on the House floor all because the Mile High Airhead introduced an article of impeachment against the President, same as Empty-G has, but neither has anything that would fall under "high crimes & misdemeanors" to justify those articles. They're both whining about the Southern border and all the migrants crossing said border. The immigration department does what it can, and, yes, Antonio Mayorgas is also being targeted for impeachment by Empty-G (again, no high crimes & misdemeanors), which says that this is nothing more than political posturing.

In short, the GOPers have nothing, so they have to create something to placate the marks. Whining about the Southern border and Hunter Biden owning his situation ain't something to complain about, but that's where we're at these days.
