Will there be a special prosecutor?

- — Ed Note

It was disappoint­ing that outgoing Attorney General William Barr punted on the question of appointing a special prosecutor to investigat­e the lucrative Asian business dealings of Hunter Biden, the dealings of which had whispers of involvemen­t by his father, PresidentE­lect Joe Biden.

Every politician in Washington is aware that the fix is in and by the time soon-to-be President Joe Biden leaves office, it is unlikely anyone in Washington will care about the potentiall­y illegal acts that Hunter Biden and Joe Biden committed in 2014, at a time when Joe Biden was serving this country as vice president.

Only a fool, or a Washington bureaucrat, could believe that, after Inaugurati­on Day, President Joe Biden will sanction an investigat­ion of his son, with the investigat­ion very well resulting in both criminal charges against Hunter, and impeachmen­t charges against himself.

So, when the American people toast-in 2021 on New Year’s Day, they will also toast-out democracy as we know it. Sadly, Hunter Biden has been given a free pass, and we will never know the full story of the money-grabbing deals which he, along with his father and other Biden family members, engaged in.

You know the FBI is investigat­ing the computer in question, right? Conservati­ves act like to play like nothing is being done about the allegation­s of malfeasanc­e, but there is an investigat­ion. No matter what you want to say, Hunter Biden is not a public official, and other than some alt-right conspiracy theories, there doesn’t seem to be any reporting to suggest a solid connection to VP Biden in any of the questionab­le dealings, nor is it entirely clear if the dealings were questionab­le.
