@FredFleitz@WSJ@FreemanWSJ WSJ batters through the containment of @nypost revelations. Biden family business associate Tony Bobulinski:
"I realized the Chinese were not really focused on a healthy financial [return on investment]. They were looking at this as a political or influence investment..."
@FredFleitz@WSJ@FreemanWSJ@nypost .@FreemanWSJ says: "The statement attributed to Mr. Bobulinski appears to confirm that contrary to his denials, Joe Biden was involved with his son Hunter’s business, and it was not a business in which a future president ought to be involved."
"The Biden family aggressively leveraged the Biden family name to make millions of dollars from foreign entities even though some were from communist controlled China."
Joe Biden sold the office of the Vice President to Communist China.
Over his distinguished career, Nick Eftimiades consistently has been one of the top China intelligence experts in America. All serious people should follow his work. breakingdefense.com/2020/10/the-5-…@neftimiades
2) @neftimiades: "Chinese intelligence operations are the first in modern times to use, as a foundation, the whole of society. Because of this, China’s espionage tactics are sometimes artless ... instead relying on an overwhelming volume of espionage operations...."
3) @neftimiades: "... conducted by all manner of citizen and a sort of impunity inherent in the lack of substantive penalty for when a Chinese agent is discovered..."
In other words, our laws and traditional counterintelligence are obsolete when it comes to the CCP.
1) Let's look at the material parts of the intelligence professionals' letter about Hunter Biden's emails.
The letter hedges a lot more than the "news" reporting leads the reader to think, but the reasons & conclusions are unbecoming of a professional. politico.com/f/?id=00000175…
2) "the arrival on the US political scene of emails purportedly belonging to Vice President Biden’s son Hunter, much of it related to his time serving on the Board of the Ukrainian gas company Burisma, has all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation."
3) Just "earmarks," no evidence, but still a valid concern.
But they express no concern about how Joe Biden's son was on the board of Burisma, which was set up under the pro-Kremlin Yanukovich government of Ukraine, or whether that was an influence op.
Some of us remember when Jim Clapper, as the hyper-PC director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, purged the DIA of its best Russian counterintelligence professionals and warmed to a group of radical Che Guevara fans at the Latin America desk, including one Ana Belen Montes.
Here's Jim Clapper's protectee, and her cheerleading squad. She's scheduled for early release in 2022. workers.org/2020/06/49205/
FBI busted Ana Belen Montes just 10 days after the 9/11 attacks. She was working as a Cuban spy in the DIA, her pro-Castro views in plain sight. Jim Clapper protected her. archives.fbi.gov/archives/news/…
@davereaboi Some of the people on this list are so publicly politicized that they can't be taken seriously as neutral intelligence professionals any more. Some never were true professionals in the first place. Others were indeed professionals, but were noted soft-liners toward Moscow.
@davereaboi I agree with the first three paragraphs of the letter. It's good that the letter admit the limitations the signers have in the field of Russian disinformation, saying, "A few of us worked against Russian information operations in the United States in the last several years."
@davereaboi It is irresponsible for them to state, as fact, that the Hunter Biden-related email cache "has all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation."
Not one of them says that they have seen the emails. They don't even say that they conferred with people who studied them.
1) The Senate investigation of Hunter Biden was about how foreign corruption influenced American national security. @JoeBiden surrogates are spinning it as an unfair attack on a relative.
2) Timeline after the mass protests in Ukraine that ousted pro-Russian President Viktor Yanokovych on February 21, 2014:
"Less than two months later, over the span of only 28 days, significant events involving the Bidens unfolded..."
3 "On April 26 2014, Vice President Biden met with his son's business partner, Devon Archer, at the White House. Five days later, Vice President Biden visited Ukraine, & he soon afterward was described in the press as the 'public face of the administration's handling of Ukraine."
