Jonathan Turley: “Nothing to See Here”: Members and the Media Panic as the Biden Scandal Mounts
Below is my column in the New York Post on the last ditch effort of the members of Congress and the media to get the public to just “move on” from the Biden corruption scandal.
The message has been clear and amplified, as former U.S. Senator Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) insisted on MSNBC, “Everybody needs to back off!” As evidence and public interest increase, it is a bit late for spin or shiny objects. This week, the scandal is likely to be even more serious for the Bidens and the country. The media is increasingly taking on the appearance of Leslie Nielsen in Naked Gun yelling that there is “nothing to see here” in front of a virtual apocalyptic scene of fire and destruction.

WNU Editor: Jonathan Turley is always a good read. Especially when it comes to commentary on US law.
My sister-in-law lives in the Bay area, and she and her neighbors are die-hard supporters of President Biden and the Democrat Party. And she and her neighbors put their money where their mouth is. The money that she has given, with my brother's support, to Democrats over the years has been eye-watering.
But when I was talking to her last week, she wanted affirmation from me that Biden's scandals are just the Republicans being political, and there is really no substance to them.
LOL!
When your die-hard supporters need to call others to be convinced that the person they are supporting is not the person that the critics are saying .... sighhh .... for a politician that is the kiss of death.
As for my sister-in-law. I told her that what we are seeing and what we know is just the tip of the iceberg.

It’s sad that the media isn’t doing its job. People shouldn’t be this ignorant of reality in the age of information.
When a family member who supports Biden has to ask a Trump family member what to believe, it is clear that there is little straight thinking going on. Hunter? He pleads guilty to tax charges. Now what else has he done that is in the courts?
Turley is of course a right-of-center lawyer, like Rudy or Instapudnit, so yes, he has his biases too. Is there substance? The legal system decides, not the family member.
yes the legal system decides . Butt does it decide correctly?
That is the true issue. If the system is corrupt or biased to one side or another then equal application of justice is rightly questionable.
Sorry state of affairs in the country, is that justice is not equal.
The whole concept of prosecutorial; discretion is flawed.
To say there is not a two tiered system system of justice is to commit fraud.
To say that if you are a conservative and get judged in a liberal city and expect you are going to get a fair trial is BS. It is not going to happen.
To say that the government applies all the laws equally is a farce. Just Look at Lenise Lerner and the IRS scandal. Or the case of Richard Jewel. Compare The Jewel case against the Hunter Biden case as far as the fair application of the law
The left is authoritarian, highly censorious, violently oppressive and almost entirely fascistic at this point. So the publics information exposure is minimal at best; especially with all the crackdowns and threats they make against alternative media that are actually doing their jobs. Child Pred Fred Lapaides/roosting chickens in march anon are still "waiting on the evidence and data" or whatever regarding Biden, so he (sorry, they them?) can just ignore it and post hyper links to VOX article as primary sources, and then pretend that Biden is not the most corrupt POS president we have ever had.
Biden needs to be publicly hung if found guilty of this level of bribery, weaponizing the DOJ against his political opposition, inflicting unprecedented censorship and persecution of anyone who opposes that fully degenerate and purposely open ended political party, colluding with media, tech and foreign powers to meddle in our elections, selling the country out for personal/familial gain etc . But Child Pred Fred will have you focus on Republican bigots raycisms(TM) conspiring with orange Thanos stolen nuclear codes pee tapes to start WW3 or some such.
At this point, any congress person on the $127k/year salary or whatever who somehow has a net worth of $10m+ soon after getting into office or $50m+ after decades in office without any noteworthy side hustles (not including laundering/bribe money paid via public speaking events, $10k a head socialite dinners, finger paintings, etc) left or right needs to be fully investigated and if found guilty of actual corruption, publicly hung as well. For congress, start with Pelosi and Romney. The public servants in congress cannot and should not be allowed to participate in the stock markets either, given their stellar record of personal and friends/family gains from their highly exclusive exposure to inside info across the board.
We cant have nice things or maintain this country's legacy and all that it has provided us with if we wont fight for it. The rot is so obvious at this point on both sides that the tree of liberty needs to be watered with the blood of patriots and tyrants alike once again. Like 30 years ago.
107,
Oh fuck off Fred/anon/roosting chickens boi. You are still out there pushing Trump-Russia collusion based off zero things, going from post to post leaving your snail trail behind. Things are only "right" or are "working as prescribed" when you like what happens. Your bias of omission, just to adhere to your narrative so that it comports with your world view undermines your ability to think straight. Your standards are as open ended and as your party platform to weasel toward a conclusion based off a given set of premises that you loosely hold as true yourself. You are ideological cancer.
Always a good read when it isn’t against Putin
Wont even matter after the next rigged election. Trump supporters should be worried about how the DOJ will keep them in check as they continue to turn the screws on any opposition.
