Tell that to Harry Reid and the current members of the Democrat leadership?  Heck, they impeached Trump based on pretty weak accusations.  As to need for a SP for this case, I would think that is clear and obvious to anyone who also believed a SP was necessary for the Russian/Collusion accusations/narrative.

But again: Trump-appointed Attorney General Barr could appoint a Special Prosecutor if he believed the evidence warranted it. Why do you think this hasn't happened?

Maybe it will, who knows, or maybe he is simply going to let it go to the next AG so we can see if that DOJ is accused of being in the President's pocket like he was.

I think if past is any precedence, if it was simply a matter of partisanship, Barr would have no problem appointing a SP. So I really doubt it's anything so high minded.

Simply a matter of opinion.  Who knows what will happen.  My only point is when the MSM starts covering DC equally, then I will start actually respecting them.

Just as with the coronavirus vaccine business:  they couldn't have announced this before November 3?

Actually they did.  It is just now that some of the "trustworthy" MSM sources are coming on board.  I wonder if Twitter and FB are blocking CNN, and Politico now?

The Hunter Biden Criminal Probe Bolsters a Chinese Scholar's Claim About Beijing's Influence With the Biden Administration

 

Hunter Biden acknowledged today that he has been notified of an active criminal investigation into his tax affairs by the U.S. Attorney for Delaware. Among the numerous prongs of the inquiry, CNN reports, investigators are examining “whether Hunter Biden and his associates violated tax and money laundering laws in business dealings in foreign countries, principally China.”

 

Documents relating to Hunter Biden’s exploitation of his father’s name to enrich himself and other relatives through deals with China were among the cache published in the week before the election by The New York Post — revelations censored by Twitter and Facebook and steadfastly ignored by most mainstream news outlets. That concerted repression effort by media outlets and Silicon Valley left it to right-wing outlet such as Fox News and The Daily Caller to report, which in turn meant that millions of Americans were kept in the dark before voting.

 

But the just-revealed federal criminal investigation in Delaware is focused on exactly the questions which corporate media outlets refused to examine for fear that doing so would help Trump: namely, whether Hunter Biden engaged in illicit behavior in China and what impact that might have on his father’s presidency.

 

The allegations at the heart of this investigation compel an examination of a fascinating and at-times disturbing speech at a major financial event held last week in Shanghai. In that speech, a Chinese scholar of political science and international finance, Di Donghseng, insisted that Beijing will have far more influence in Washington under a Biden administration than it did with the Trump administration.

 

The reason, Di said, is that China’s ability to get its way in Washington has long depended upon its numerous powerful Wall Street allies. But those allies, he said, had difficulty controlling Trump, but will exert virtually unfettered power over Biden. That China cultivated extensive financial ties to Hunter Biden, Di explained, will be crucial for bolstering Beijing’s influence even further.

 

Di, who in addition to his teaching positions is also Vice Dean of Beijing’s Renmin University’s School of International Relations, delivered his remarks alongside three other Chinese banking and development experts. Di’s speech at the event, entitled “Will China's Opening up of its Financial Sector Attract Wall Street?,” was translated and posted by Jennifer Zeng, a Chinese Communist Party critic who left China years ago, citing religious persecution, and now lives in the U.S. A source fluent in Mandarin confirmed the accuracy of the translation.

I posted it sarcastically to make a point. In fact, I very deliberately did not post a link.
