‘Dam is Starting to Break’ on Biden Crime Family
During an appearance on Breitbart News Saturday, Peter Schweizer, a Senior Contributor at Breitbart News and President of the Government Accountability Institute, stated that there are more revelations regarding the alleged corruption within the Biden family. He likened it to a dam that is starting to break, referring to the recent Hunter Biden whistleblower revelations.
“This is really, really important. The dam is starting to break — truly the first time you’ve had somebody from inside the government who has said, ‘Wait a minute, the way this is being handled is wrong,’” he said, praising the whistleblowers who could otherwise retire and have comfortable lives.
“Based on what they’ve told us, is that under ordinary circumstances, Hunter Biden would, right now, be facing indictments not only for tax evasion charges, which are felonies,” but also for violation of the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA), Schweizer explained.
According to the Schweizer, the U.S. Attorney in Delaware tried to bring charges against Hunter Biden but was prevented from doing so by the Department of Justice. The speaker also stated that this new information shows that the DOJ not only did not fulfill its duties but also held Hunter to a different standard. He went on to explain that Hunter received special treatment, such as being notified in advance about a search of his property, which is not typically offered to other individuals undergoing a similar process.
Describing it as an “enormous breakthrough,” Schweizer added, “I don’t think these whistleblowers would come forward, except for the fact that this is true, and as they said, all of this can easily be corroborated based on correspondents and based on the information that’s available. It is a devastating blow, and if you look through American history — whether it’s Watergate or other scandals — oftentimes it’s a cover-up that gets them because they get arrogant. They get greedy. They think they can get away with it, and that’s usually when they get caught.”
Schweizer commented on the recent statement released by a White House Council spokesperson, stating that Joe Biden has never been involved in any business dealings with his son. He sees this statement as further weakening their stance.
“When we first exposed, in 2018, their deals in China, their initial response was there are no deals in China. Then it became well, there might be deals in China, but Hunter Biden didn’t make any money in China. And then, of course, that. So you see this continue to erosion,” Schweizer said, also pointing to the defense of the Biden team on Hunter’s involvement with Burisma.
“The defense from the Biden team was always this was a legitimate enterprise, as Hunter is a highly trained lawyer and an international businessman. Now their position has evolved during the same time period to say, ‘Well, look, Hunter was a drug addict. He didn’t really know what he was doing. He didn’t really know what he was saying,’” he said.
“The point is, they are flipping and flopping because they know that the noose on this entire enterprise is starting to tighten. And I think that this is going to have major repercussions not just for the Biden family, but for the 2024 election,” he said, adding that he would not be shocked to see someone such as California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) jumping into the presidential race “not just on some of the questions about where the President is mentally because of his age, but also because this scandal has legs.”
Recent surveys show that many Americans view Biden as corrupt due to his alleged involvement with his son in an illegal influence peddling scheme, according to Schweizer.
“We already see polls, Harvard Harris poll, showing a comfortable majority of Americans, including independents, fundamentally believe that he was engaged in criminal activity to aid and help his family’s business,” he added.
