BEFORE THE ELECTION, WE WERE TOLD THIS WAS RUSSIAN DISINFORMATION: Federal criminal investigation into Hunter Biden focuses on his business dealings in China.

Related: House Intel Republicans not told about Eric Swalwell’s relationship with Chinese spy.

The press / social media blackout on this is just another reason why a Biden presidency will be widely regarded as illegitimate. Before the election, my column on this subject was spiked because of journalistic ethics or something.

Plus: Swalwell’s Swill. “The spy not only infiltrated Rep. Eric Swalwell’s network, she may have shared his bed, or so we can infer from Swalwell’s assertion that the response to the question whether she did may be ‘classified.’ Axios seems to have missed that aspect of the story, which the New York Post picked up here.”

UPDATE:

Eric Swalwell Implicates Democrat Leadership, Blames Trump for Revelation of Chinese Spy Who Infiltrated Him.

Flashback: Clinton’s cash for access diplomacy: Hillary Clinton ran a pay-to-play program at the Clinton Foundation while she was Secretary of State.

1998 Flashback: Charlie Trie Indicted: Clinton Friend Linked To Questionable Fund Raising. “Congressional investigators have alleged that some of the money Trie contributed to Clinton and the Democrats may have come from sources in China, which are barred by federal law from contributing to American election campaigns. Trie also has been linked to schemes by which money was distributed to people legally able to contribute, who then allegedly donated it to the Democrats in their names in order to conceal the actual source of the funds.”

It’s as if the Democratic Party leadership is a subsidiary of the CCP. And has been for a while.
