The committee, led by Chairman James Comer, said in the report that it plans to continue to investigate Biden to find evidence of corruption, even as it acknowledged that it had no evidence that he financially benefited from the myriad foreign business dealings of his son Hunter.

    Except she did actually get caught manipulating the Democratic primary leading up to 2016

    No she didn’t. It’s hard to combat conspiracy theories since they just shift the claims around but if you’re referring to the joint fundraising agreement (my best guess), that’s a standard agreement signed between campaigns and the party so that when a nominee is eventually chosen, the campaign and party can work in unison.

    The reality is that nobody did more to raise Bernie’s national profile than Hillary. He was able to make a serious go at the nomination only because she had already cleaned the floor. And when it came time to vote, actual Democrats overwhelmingly chose her, which is obvious since she was the only Democrat running. Bernie just temporarily pretends to be a Democrat when he wants their money and is unwilling to do any of the ongoing work to support the party and its other down-ballot candidates.

      Thank you. It drives me nuts how few people know/acknowledge that.

      A ton of people are young and had legitimately never seen a primary before 2016 and were apparently under the impression that they are traditionally these sanctified contests where political saints exert enormous effort to ensure fairness and balance.

      The reality is that the 2016 primary was neither unusually especially contentious or corrupt. Any other view is either ignorant or malicious as far as I’m concerned.
