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.

Hmm? There is an impeachment committee.

Yes. And it did not recommend impeachment. It just issued this report, but did not take the step of recommending to the full House that the President be impeached. Because it would have compounded the embarrassment when the House did not follow that recommendation.

Is he not somehow part of the family? How odd. And how else would the supremely qualified Hunter Biden be able to peddle influence if not through his father?

Dope, you're better than that. Joe Biden is a member of his family, but he is not the only member of his family. So you can't switch from "This is a thing that the Biden family has done" to "This is a thing that Joe Biden has done," because the thing might have been done by a different member of his family. And it's very easy for Hunter Biden to have peddled the appearance of influence simply by being related to his father, without having peddled any actual influence - because he never got (and never would have been able to get) his father to use the powers of his office for him.

LOL. Tell me you haven't followed the entire saga without telling me you haven't followed the entire saga.

LOL. Tell me you can't answer a question without answering the question.

Did Joe Biden receive $27 million? Or did other members of Joe Biden's family receive $27 million.
