March, 2020, Part 1, Political Class Insanity: Political Corruption In Massachusetts, Biden Under Investigation, and Biden's Alternative Reality

It is another month which means it is again time to review the latest political class insanity from Washington and around the world. Political class insanity takes many forms including the wasting of taxpayer wealth, criminal fraud within government programs, inane and stupid political quotes and actions, the inability to create and implement effective and efficient government programs, stupid and ill performing economic policies and strategies, and other forms of insanity that continue to evolve and surprise and shock us.

Let’s get started:

1) Political corruption does not just exist with Washington politicians. It can find its way down to state and local politicians also. Consider a recent report from the Federalist Papers:
  • Former Massachusetts state senator, Brian Joyce, was recently arrested and charged with using his political office as a “criminal enterprise.”
  • He was arrested under a 113 county Federal indictment.
  • He was accused of taking over $1 million in bribes and kickbacks when in office and abusing that office of public trust.
  • He was also charged with racketeering, extortion, fraud, money laundering and conspiracy to defraud the IRS.
  • He was arrested by the FBI after a two year investigation.
  • According to the FBI, he used his law practice by, ““falsely characterizing the bribe and kickback payments as legal referral fees,” and that he lied to the state Ethics Commission about the payments.”
Now, as always, he is innocent until proven guilty. But seriously, 113 counts and a two year Federal investigation does not make it look good for possibly yet another politician who sees public office as a personal enrichment opportunity rather than a way to serve the voters with integrity.

2) According to a recent article on the National Insiders website, Joe Biden is now under serious investigation by the Ukrainian government:
  • The investigation is looking into if Biden had pressured Ukrainian officials to drop an investigation of Hunter Biden and forced the resignation of Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin.
  • This is related to the fact that Biden’s son, Hunter, had received over $3 million form the country’s natural gas company, Burisma Holdings, while Joe Biden was overseeing a U.S. effort to address Ukrainian corruption and despite the reality that his son had absolutely NO energy experience or background.
  • The charge against Biden is that he interfered with the work of an official of a Ukrainian law enforcement agency.
  • Apparently, Biden is a suspect in three different criminal offenses.
  • According to the article, “Judging by remarks Biden allowed himself to make in public, Viktor Mykolayovych Shokin has sufficient grounds to believe that it was [Biden] who masterminded and, to a certain extent, perpetrated those criminal offenses to which Shokin alerted the law enforcement agencies of Ukraine,” the lawyer said.”
  • Even more crazy is that Greek law enforcement sources are looking into the mercury poison of Shokin in 2019 to see if that has a Biden connection.
Again, innocent until proven guilty. But the problem Biden has is that he has publicly bragged on video that he actually did intervene to get Shokin fired, a ready made confession.

3) Biden has always been a human gaffe machine, possibly only outdone by Nancy Pelosi or Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez when it comes to saying, stupid, inane, or just plain wrong statements. For example, he confidently stated a number of months ago that he was Vice President when the horrific Parkland School shooting happened in Florida. The sad thing was that he was NOT Vice president when that shooting happened. He more recently said he was arrested in South Africa when he went to see Nelson Mandela even though there is absolutely no record of that ever happening.

And he was recently at it again, completely wrong when it comes to his previous work in government:
  • He recently told a crowd in South Carolina that he was instrumental in getting a climate deal done with the Chinese Premier.
  • Unfortunately, the Premier he thought he got the deal done with had passed away 23 years earlier, before the climate deal was signed.
  • Specifically, “I’m the guy that came back after meeting with Deng Xiaoping and making the case that I believe China would join if we put pressure on them.” 
  • But Biden was Obama’s President from 2009 until 2017 during which the Paris Climate Agreement was developed towards the end of the Obama Presidency/
  • But Deng who had died over a decade before Obama and Biden took office.
  • Trump's reelection campaign explained this impossibility: “Joe Biden claimed tonight that he worked with Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping on the Paris Climate Accord. Except the current Chinese President is Xi Jinping. Deng Xiapoing left office in 1992 and has been dead for 23 years,” they mocked.
One really has to question the man's sense of reality when he constantly forgets where he is, who he dealt with, and many other delusions of reality. And he wants to be President of the United States.

4) Let’s stay with Biden and his incoherent ramblings. In a recent dinner with South Carolina Democrats, he made this incoherent assertion: “Where I come from, you don’t get far unless you ask. My name’s Joe Biden. I’m a Democratic candidate for the United States Senate. Look me over. If you like what you see, help out. If not, vote for the other Biden.” 

Sadly, he is a Democratic candidate for the Presidency, not a Senate seat. He has been running for President for the past year or so and yet he says he is running for the Senate. Wow.

That will do it for the beginning of this month’s insanity: Biden lives in a world with a different color sky and different reality than the rest of us, he is under investigation for corruption in the Ukraine, and political corruption in Massachusetts. More insanity to follow.
