The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Dope1: If the Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss followed DOJ policy as he stated in his most recent letter, Hunter Biden should have been charged with a tax felony ... Hunter Biden claimed business deductions for payments made to the Château Marmont, a hotel room for his supposed drug dealer, sex club memberships (falsely referenced on the wire as a golf-membership), hotels he was blacklisted from, and a Columbia University tuition payment for his daughter.

So lemme get this straight.

Republicans are outraged because a Trump appointee and lifelong republican, David Weiss, turned down charging felonies for a couple tax write offs?

Yet you same republicans refused to join the democrats in supporting the $80b for the IRS that was included in the Inflation Reduction Act to catch tax cheats?

And we've said this a million times already, but here comes a million and one: we have no sympathy for Hunter Biden, who has been an albatross around his family's neck his entire adult life.

Gee, with these House Committee dog and pony shows it's almost like somebody big is gonna' have a giant federal conspiracy-to-defraud-the-US hammer come down hard on him, shortly followed by another big hammer blow in Georgia.
