House gets Hunter BooBoo's suspicious financials

Another Republican fishing expedition. Ken Starr is dead, but his muck-raking spirit lives on. The people working on prosecuting Trump are plowing a much more fertile field.

Ok, Slowman, tell me what these wire transfers were for.

I can imagine all sorts of explanations. I wouldn't waste anybodies time publicising them. The Republican Part obviously has an equally active imagination and wants to make political capital out of publicising their more damaging fantasies. It is childish, but it is the kind of sewage that Sewage Sweeper loves to sweep up and dump here.

And you imagine yourself in wet dreams, too - that doesn't mean they happen. This investigation is because the Lyin' Biden's can't come up with a plausible excuse either, Bozo.

Have they been asked for any? This "investigation" is a Ken Starr style fishing expedition, and the "investigators" are busy imagining scandalous explanations.

The last thing they want to hear are plausible non-scandalous explanations. None so deaf as those who do not wish to hear.

Well, yes, they HAVE been asked - DOJ has an on-going investigation of Hunter BooBoo concerning this. These suspicious activity reports WEREN'T manufactured by the Republicans, but by the banks themselves

During a press conference, Republican Representative James Comer spoke about "suspicious activity reports," or "SARs," and said that they are documents a bank must file with the Treasury Department when a transaction is "suspected to be related to money laundering or fraud, or other types of criminal activity."

"According to media reports, the Biden family accumulated over 150 SARs," Comer said. "One SAR generated by an American bank to the Treasury Department connects Hunter Biden and his business associates to human trafficking, among other illegal activities....The SAR shows that Hunter Biden was conducting business with suspected human traffickers."

More on SARs:

The "suspicious activity reports" are generated by a whole bunch of financial transactions. Very few of them are actually suspect, but they are all looked at to see if they are.

There's a pretty broad profile of potentially suspicious transactions. Very few of them are between criminals for illegal activities, but law enforcement likes to cast a wide net. The Republican "investigators" are delighted to exploit this when it can be used to throw mud at people they want to smear.

And the same sort of trawling would show that Donald Trump was too - Trump has links to the Russian mafia.

". As a result. there are special privileges that protect people who submit suspicious activity reports, whether as a part of a company or on their own. The individual (or organization) is not required to disclose their name and are immune to the discovery process. All reporters receive immunity for statements made in the SAR."

In order words Rudy Giuliani could write the suspicious activity report, and nobody would know he'd submitted it as pro-Trump election propaganda rather than a legitimate report of a possible crime.

Easier than salting a lap-top with bogus crimes. Sewage Sweeper really is very stupid.

How the hell do you KNOW THAT? The answer is YOU DON'T! The Lyin' Bidens have been receiving MILLIONS OF DOLLARS for NO REASON.

Again, HOW THE HELL do you KNOW THAT?? Again, the answer is YOU DON'T!

Oh, PUHLEEESSSSSSEEEEEEE! WHATABOUTISM IS NOT an excuse for illegal behavior.

Bozo's Sewage Sweeper

Australia's casinos seem to be used a lot for money laundering, and are in deep trouble for not reporting potentially suspicious activities. The newspaper reports go into a lot of detail. Your answer is that you prefer that I didn't know what was going on, and that you will resort to wishful thinking as the basis for your response.

Trump's behaviour probably was illegal, but the Republican congress has no enthusiasm for looking into it. That make their interest in the Bidens a simple kangaroo court.

Kangaroo courts are actually illegal, but "the party of law an order" just loves them.

No, YOU resort to "wishful thinking"

This thread is about Lyin' Biden crime family - start your own thread about Trump.

The J6 committee WAS a kangaroo court, but you didn't object.

There IS a way for Lyin' Biden and his crew to set the record straight: testify before the committee UNDER OATH.

Bozo's Sewage Sweeper

Whatever right -wing idiots like you do is perfectly legal - in your ever-so-expert opinion - so anybody prosecuting people for breaking into the Capital Building on the 6th January has to be a kangaroo court.

First question. "Have you stopped beating your wife - answer yes or no".

The same people who probably planted the "suspect activity reports" then get to publicise their groundless accusations.

If you are stupid enough to go in for those kinds of tactics. you are probably stupid enough to think that the non-moron fraction of the population will be fooled by them. Sewage Sweeper is very stupid, and he thinks that everybody else is just as gullible.

Or not; hijacking a thread is normal practice here on the internet. This OT thread basically does the next-higher offense, hijacking a group... also a normal practice.

Not so; the Jan 6 committee investigated a matter that relates directly to Congress' duties, i.e. registering the results of a national election in the face of a mob. That's a proper purpose of the Congressional power of subpoena that they used.

Since there's no prosecutable event identified, and the interest is 'in the Bidens', it appears that elected officials are using their office for opposition research in advance of an upcoming election, rather than of any real legislature interest being served. If it IS research, not just pot-stirring and muttering of imprecations; we've seen this before, with a protracted investigation then a short court session declaring 'not guilty'; remember the infamous Durham investigation?
