1. The timeframe was when LIEden was VP.
[/snip]

Understood.
That "VP timeframe" establishes the likelihood that #SpongeBrainShitPants probably had an ongoing substance abuse problem as recently as his stint as O'Bummer's Impeachment Insurance days, thus opening up the number of possible "possessers" of that notorious kilo of coke by at least one.

Hunter was just the obvious coke head that it could be blamed on without much consequence.

So in other words, there is an honest question over WHOSE cocaine that was in the White House.

Got it...

1. The timeframe was when LIEden was VP.

2. Given the types of people LIEden had on staff, it was a fair question. That it has not been answered raises an even fairer question ... who is being protected? Not that any MSM shill-parrot would dare ask.

John Galliano-themed Met Gala is CANCELED after furious backlash over disgraced designer's antisemitic rant/b]

https://www.dailymail.com/lifestyle/article-16093257/john-galliano-met-gala-2027-theme-canceled-backlash.html

Quote
John Galliano's 2027 Met Gala exhibition has been canceled amid ongoing backlash.

The controversial designer, 65, who made antisemitic and racist remarks in a Paris cafe in 2011, shared the news via Instagram on Monday morning, explaining that it was 'best for the exhibition not to take place at this time.'

'I am profoundly grateful to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and particular to Max Hollein, Andrew Bolton and Anna Wintour, for the extraordinary honor of proposing an exhibition devoted to my work,' his statement read.
...
Religious leaders were said to be furious over the planned tribute to Galliano at the gala, per The New York Times.
...
Patrons have also reportedly threatened to rescind gifts.

In a statement made via Vogue on Monday, Wintour praised the designer's decision to postpone the exhibit as 'courageous.'

“John’s decision to ask the Museum to postpone the exhibition devoted to his work is very courageous and a measure of the man he is,' Wintour's statement began, in part.

'I believe this is the right decision, and both he and the Museum have my full support. His soaring imagination, fed by a lifetime of curiosity and research, is matched by his exceptional craft,' her statement continued.

It's hard to escape the conclusion that The Met, Wintour, et al were fully aware of Galliano's antisemitism and were OK with it. I'm not going to try to escape it. As for the Jewish religious leaders and other Jewish people's negative response, well, yeah! Stalin and Russian Communism killed members of my family and I resent their evils, paleo and neo. So Jewish people being outraged by an antisemite being honored is pretty rational to me.

Hunter Biden reveals dad Joe used to visit him in crack den with motorcade and Secret Service

https://archive.is/bdQvO#selection-767.3-767.96

President Joe Biden used to visit Hunter Biden at his troubled son’s Washington, DC, crack den via an official motorcade with the Secret Service in tow.

Hunter would spy his dad’s vice presidential caravan of official SUVs arriving through the window of his Beltway drug lair and home — where he’d installed a dishonest crack dealer as his BFF and roomie.

“My dad showed up. He literally showed up at the house twice, you know, and just knocked on the door,” Hunter, 56, reveals on a new episode of the acclaimed addiction podcast Dopey.

Hunter was asked by host David Manheim if his famous dad ever met his roommate — known as “Bicycles,” a vagrant Hunter had sought out to sell him crack and teach him how to smoke it, and who then wound up moving in with him. “I think he ran into her,” says Hunter.

I guess VP Joe was sufficiently "with it" to not ask Hunter of he would "share" the crack-girl.

Spanberger gets called out on X for false claim about Trump executive order

https://justthenews.com/government/white-house/spanberger-gets-called-out-x-false-claim-about-trump-executive-order

Quote
Virginia Democratic Gov. Abigail Spanberger was called out on X for a false claim about President Trump's executive order on mail-in ballots.

"If you are serving our country abroad, I believe that you should have the ability to cast a vote in our elections. The Trump Administration is attempting to take that ability away," Spanberger said on CNN.

A community note was added under the X post from the governor's account.

"Military and overseas voters' UOCAVA ballots are explicitly exempt from the USPS rules implementing the March 2026 executive order; service members abroad can still register/request absentee ballots via the Federal Post Card Application," read the note.

NY prosecutor claims Letitia James’ office pushed him to target Trump-linked entities

https://justthenews.com/government/courts-law/ny-prosecutor-claims-james-office-pushed-him-target-trump-linked-entities

Quote
prosecutor in New York Attorney General Letitia James’ office accused agency leaders of directing him to pursue President Donald Trump and other Trump-linked individuals and organizations without a legitimate basis.

Assistant Attorney General Daniel Wiesenfeld made the allegations in an agency-wide email Friday, claiming his supervisor instructed him to “find and pursue crimes” involving Trump, Truth Social and other entities despite what he described as a lack of credible justification.

The email was quickly removed from the inboxes of thousands of employees, according to the Times Union.

Wiesenfeld was later placed on administrative leave with pay.

Prosecutors are not investigators. Prosecutors do not "discover" "crimes".

Retired law enforcement officers demand Mamdani, Hochul stay away from 9/11 ceremony

https://thepostmillennial.com/retired-law-enforcement-officers-demand-mamdani-hochul-stay-away-from-9-11-ceremony

Quote
Retired law enforcement officers are demanding that New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Governor Kathy Hochul refrain from participating in the 25th anniversary commemoration of the September 11 terrorist attacks.

In an August 11 letter addressed to Mamdani, the 600-member Port Authority Retired Police Association told the mayor that he was not welcome at the memorial ceremony.

“We do not believe you have earned the privilege to stand at Ground Zero alongside us, the families, survivors, and our fellow first responders,” association President John McDevitt wrote. “We do not believe you have earned the privilege to stand at Ground Zero alongside us, the families, survivors, and our fellow first responders.

“Your presence at Ground Zero on 9/11 would cause profound pain to members of the 9/11 community and risk turning a solemn day of remembrance into a political controversy,” he added.

The letter referenced Mamdani’s “rhetoric and affiliations that we believe have been hostile to law enforcement” and claimed that his political statements are “sympathetic” toward anti-American movements.

Obviously, this group lacks authority to block Mamdani's or Hochul's presence, other than PR pressure. Given the attitudes of both, expressed verbally and/or in action, if they do refrain, it won't be out of respect.

Overeducated leftists who attended colleges and universities that feature worthless majors is certainly a contributing factor to the stupidity of the culture.

Chicago Sky owner Michael Alter addressed the decision to eject Enes Kanter Freedom from Wintrust Arena without a warning by noting that some actions, like shooting at someone with a gun, do not merit warnings.

Alter continued, “He was given a lot of leeway, as I said, he was sitting there, and he was trash-talking…but at a certain point, you know.”

Ah.
Words are violence.  :rotf:
