[QUOTE=GDreams;2680783]Weekly unemployment claims edged higher for the first time in three weeks but rose only marginally from multi-decade lows set just last week. At 188,000, last week's tally for new jobless claims marked the lowest level since September 1969. And continuing claims, which track the total number of individuals claiming ongoing benefits on regular state programs, have also fallen precipitously and reached just over 1.3 million in mid-March. The last time it reached that level was in December 1969.

[/QUOTE]Apparently you don't care to know the truth. So you keep rehashing the BS you find on partisan blogs. (Or maybe you just make it up all by yourself) Why don't you do some real research? Attorney General William Barr told Trump he lost and there wasn't any widespread election fraud. Here, I'll make it easy for you. Here is the Wall Street Journal excerpt from Barr's memoir. You remember AG Barr? Trump's hand-picked Attorney General who blocked much of the Mueller report.
Here is the "Elvis Summary" . Barr told President Trump that the claims of election fraud were fabricated. Sure there were some individual cases of fraud but nothing remotely on a scale that would have changed ANY of the election results.

And just how widespread is voter fraud? Well that ultra-conservative bastion called the Heritage Foundation has been carefully recording all the known cases for years. Guess what? They have a little less than 1,400 cases and a nearly equal portion of those cases involved voters committing fraud for the Republican candidates.
I'm really sorry that your BS is just that. BS. If you could up your reading skills you could actually find real sources even if you won't look at anything that might remotely be liberal-leaning.

Baghdad Bob has more credibility than your drivel.[/QUOTE]Well put. I know that the fake news media is getting worried about it and are trying to downplay it. White House is definitely concerned the Big Guy or Joe is going to get implicated by Hunter's actions. Amazing that their are still fools out there that are also trying to protect Hunter actions.
[QUOTE=CaliGuy;2680818]You are correct. USA could definitely use the extra 830,000 barrels of oil per day to drive down prices that the pipeline would have delivered. Today Biden is expected to start releasing 1 million barrels of oil a day from the USA reserves. Unfortunately too little too late. He needs to ramp up drilling domestically so we can get out of this situation but he still is blocking several other pipelines with regulations and his cabinets are delaying drilling permits on thousands of wells on drilling leases. He claims there are 9000 wells can be drilled on oil company purchased leases but they can't get drilling permits approved with Biden EPA and environmental departments. Biden is still trying to kill domestic drilling to appease the far left. Americans are paying the price.[/QUOTE]There is no extra 830 k bpd. Everything that Canadian sands producers are producing is being sold. Only an idiot would think they are storing 830 k bpd when they could be selling it for the best prices in a decade. But of course they are not, its being sold and railed into the US as there is not current limitation on rail or they are piping through the keystone pipeline that already exists Or they are exporting it directly from Canada. So there is no 830 k bpd available and never has been. Just a figment of your and Canadas imagination. As I also pointed out, The US for the last month has increased exports of oil to 3 mbd. If 830 k bpd were going to make any difference to the price or supply in the US why are producers exporting so much and not selling locally?
Canada and the US do not have unlimited capacity to produce oil. Canadian oil is difficult to extract and sell at a significant discount as it is difficult to refine and produces low yields. Just 2 years ago they were in dire straights, having to idle much of their production because when demand drops they have the least saleable oil. Now I know for simpletons such as yourself and Canada that the nor is all that matters investors, financiers and company management look at many possible scenarios when making an investment decision. Now while Canada is crowing about buying oil stocks, lithium stocks over the last year are up 5 to ten times, I have seen one up 100 times. In 5 years EVs will have a big impact on demand. So are financiers and investors going to spend billions on a 30 year asset only to see it stranded in 5 years? The money is saying EVs will win out.
Finally Biden doesn't drill oil wells companies do. I've explained it before but will do it again. In 2020 over $300 b was lost in oil markets through bankruptcies and loan defaults. So while bragging about the cost at the pump during Trumps years the reality was it was unsustainable because over 600 oil and drilling companies went bankrupt. This was all during Trump. Now you think that companies, investors and financiers are going to rush back to put themselves in the same position they were just 2 short years ago, especially when the EV tsunami is on the horizon? Nope they are doing the rational thing and recapitalising with the strong prices and only cautiously increasing production.
The current estimated cost of decommissioning abandoned oil wells is well in excess of $1 t. I for one expect producers to not flare valuable gas, not let it leak unmonitored into the atmosphere. Its time that oil and gas companies were required to ensure they put up closure bonds and be responsible for emissions instead of getting a free ride.

Of course, you love Biden. It is kind of nice being in a relationship with him. Every day he asks, "And who the fuck are you? And you two go at like you did on your first date. That is the one benefit of being with someone demented. It is always fresh. My only question is, does Jill know?
[QUOTE=Xpartan;2680928]But why do Elvis et al hate America so much that they're willing to accept help from the war criminal? Oh well.[/QUOTE]LOL. And why did a Russian oligarch lend Hunter Biden $3.5 million?
[URL]https://nypost.com/2020/09/23/hunter-biden-received-3-5m-from-russian-billionaire-report[/URL]
Here is what your POS hack media source writes, Hunter Biden's legal team told NBC News in 2020 that Biden had "no interest" in that firm that received the money, so "the claim he was paid $3. 5 million was false. ".
Here is what actually happened.
The report reads, "Between May 6, 2015 and Dec. 8, 2015, Baturina sent 11 wires in the amount of $391,968. 21 to a bank account belonging to BAK USA LLC. Nine of the 11 transactions, totaling $241,797.14 were sent from Baturina's accounts to a Rosemont Seneca Thornton bank account, which then transferred to the money to BAK USA. The 11 transactions all listed 'Loan Agreement' in the payment details section.
"BAK USA was a startup technology company headquartered in Buffalo, N. Y, that produced tablet computers in cooperation with unnamed Chinese business partners. BAK USA filed for bankruptcy on March 29,2019, with a reported loss of $39 million. These transactions were identified because of Baturina's reported criminal activity," it continues.
Nine of those 11 wire transfers were first sent to Rosemont Seneca Partners, the investment firm founded by Biden and Chris Heinz stepson of former Secretary of State John Kerry.
Ah, yes, the purity of Democrats can be smelled all the way to the dump.
This is what we know about Hunter Biden. While his father was Vice President under President Obama. Hunter Biden decided to go into business, and he used his father's position to set up contracts around the world. China, Russia, Ukraine. And those contracts brought Hunter Biden millions of dollars. That's a fact. Hunter Biden admits it. Hunter Biden told the IRS that happened. All right.
So millions of dollars are coming to Hunter Biden, but Hunter Biden really doesn't have a job. All right, it's not like he's working for Facebook or AT&T. He doesn't have a job. He's appointed and he gets contracts to consult. But he's not doing anything, he's not building anything. He's not particularly creative or any of that. But millions of dollars are going into his wallet. Fact.
His father knows this is happening, because Hunter Biden on occasion introduces his father to his business partners around the world. And Hunter Biden flies on Air Force II with his father to take meetings, particularly in China. So the Vice President of the United States knows that his son is reaping millions of dollars by an association with him, Joe Biden knows that. That is corruption. That's what it is. Now, if you're an honest politician, you say to your son, number one, you're not flying on Air Force II at taxpayers expense so you can make money. That's not happening. And number 2, I'm the Vice President. I can't have you entering into deals with nations that I'm responsible for. Remember, Barack Obama put Joe Biden in charge of Ukraine.
So this is corruption. Now that's an opinion, but it's based on facts. So Joe Biden to me, used his position as Vice President to perform corrupt acts on behalf of his son, and I think his brother, but I'm not quite sure about Jimmy yet. Now, if you want to go back in history to see another President who did the exact same thing, go to USA Grant. Who in his administration, employed 40 members, 4-0, of the Grant family. And USA Grant was battered by corruption his entire 8 years. OK, it's the same thing. So members of Grant's family were enriching themselves because Grant was President. Members of Biden's family enrich themselves because he was Vice President. If you deny this, then you are just living in the land of Oz. You don't want to know the truth. As Jack Nicholson once said, you can't handle the truth.

That's between you and your shrink, buddy.[/QUOTE]Nice post.
April 2019, 2 years ago. Hunter Biden damages his computer. He brings it in, not to a computer store like Apple, he brings it to some guy in Wilmington, Delaware who does repairs, but Biden can't even see this guy, so I don't know, he just drops the computer off, and then Biden never comes back to get it. OK. This is the guy getting paid millions of dollars by China, Ukraine and Russia. Drops his computer off, and doesn't come back to pick it up. How wacked out is that? Because in the computer there's all kinds of business stuff, personal stuff, pictures of him inebriated. I mean, it's like, all right. So the repair guy takes the hard drive out, and he makes a copy, which he gives to Rudy Giuliani's lawyer, Robert Costello. This is 5 months later in September. So the computer goes in in April. Hunter Biden doesn't show pick it up. In September, the guy makes a copy of the hard drive and gives it to Rudy Giuliani's lawyer, Robert Costello.
Then the FBI gets involved because Giuliani kind of whispers around that he has it and they go into the Delaware repair shop and take the computer. They have subpoenas, they take it. OK? Now, later on in a congressional hearing, the person in charge of this, the FBI personnel, said he doesn't know where the computer is. You may have seen the news clip, it's amazing.
But back in late September, Steve Bannon tells The New York Post about this whole thing. And then the New York Post gets a copy of the hard drive and prints it in October 11. It's a big story in the New York Post. But none of the other corporate media pick it up, and it's banned on social media, Facebook and all that. They ban it! Why would you do that? I mean, you know, it's a legitimate story. Check it out yourself if you are an honest news organization. So there's a total across the board blackout of the story, which we all know about. And then the story comes up to Joe Biden in the final presidential debate. Finally, it gets to him. All right, he's running for President, October 20th, right before the election. Hey, your kid's laptops has all kinds of salacious stuff on it. What do you think? He is finally asked about Hunter's laptop and here is what happened at that debate:
Joe Biden, "There are 50 former national intelligence folks who said that what this, he's accusing me, of is a Russian plan. They have said that this is, has all the - 5 former heads of the CIA. Both parties say what he's saying is a bunch of garbage. Nobody believes it, except his and his good friend, Rudy Giuliani."
Trump, "You mean the laptop is now another Russia, Russia, Russia hoax?
Biden, "That's exactly what."
Trump, "Is this where you're going?
Biden, "That's exactly what."
Trump, "This is where he's going."
So, it's 2 weeks before the election and Joe Biden's whole laptop defense is that "50 former national intelligence folks who said that what this, he's accusing me, of is a Russian plan. They have said that this is, has all the - 5 former heads of the CIA. Both parties say what he's saying is a bunch of garbage. " OK, so now we know with 100% certainty that Biden was misled or lied. One or the other. Misled or lie. Because, we now know with absolute certainty that the stuff on the computer wasn't a Russian hoax. Hunter Biden put it there!
So where do we stand now? And this is the most important part: the feds are investigating Hunter Biden. The investigation is led by Delaware USA Attorney David Weiss. Now, David Weiss has to use the FBI to accumulate information, facts. All right. So that's underway. And according to CBS News, which is now finally covering the story for some reason. The FBI and the USA Attorney are looking at Hunter Biden allegedly violating tax laws, money laundering and violating foreign lobbying laws. So there is a grand jury. What is a grand jury? It is folks, regular folks, impaneled for months. Not a regular one shot deal like we all have to do in a trial. These people are impaneled for a while and they're paid. And they look at the evidence and they decide to issue an indictment or not. So, I think Hunter Biden is going to get indicted. But, we will have to just wait and see. After all Hunter Biden and his father, the president, must be afforded due process. Innocent until proven guilty and all that justice stuff.
But we know something very corrupt and unsavory happened. That is fact. What we don't know yet is if Joe Biden committed a formal crime. But if Hunter Biden gets indicted, that means there is going to be a trial. Unless he pleads guilty, which he might, to avoid a trial. In a trial, you're going to have people come in and say Joe Biden got a piece, because they've already said it. People like Bob Wolinski, Hunter Biden's partner said it. It is in the laptop emails, "Hey, dad, got a taste. The big guy, 10% that was all in the New York Post story, but it hasn't been proven. And that's what would happen if Hunter Biden is indicted. Buckle your seat belts. This is going to get interesting.
Regardless what the actual initial, unrevised number report is, this is what real world real investors who do due diligence on Biden's economy know about it as they invest real money in real business ventures.
This is not BS skewed poll "opinions" about it that are manipulated by pro Repub Mainstream Media pundits:
