FROM THE TCI WIRE:

Let's start with Joe Biden. US President Joe Biden has had his share of stumbles and scandals. I have an e-mail regarding the recognition of Navy Joan. Why, I'm asked, have I not called this out?

Called out the Bidens recognizing their granddaughter?

Uh, because it's good news. I know this is confusing to some people. Hate Merchant Jonathan Turley, for example, can't seem to stop Tweeting about this.

It's over. The issue has been resolved. Yes, she was not immediately welcomed. Yes, that was wrong. We actually called it out here -- more than once. We stopped because it was being addressed. I don't feel the need to do an update on this. The e-mailer says, "You are just trying to protect Biden!"

Really? Because I will offer a statement right now if it's that all important to you: Good for Joe and Jill for welcoming their granddaughter Navy Joan into the family.

Disappointed? Maybe you are. Maybe you expect me to obsess over it like Jonathan Turley who has turned himself into an even bigger joke.

Families are messy. Life is hard. I thought Navy Joan needed to be recognized. I said so. She is. That's a good thing. Again, Turley's an idiot who comes across as bitter and obsessed. It actually appears he wishes Navy Joan were being ignored. I'm happy for her and happy for the family.

On, Joe, I'm also told that I am looking the other way on the Hunter Biden scandal. Again, I'm told, this is because I'm protecting Joe. Protecting him from what?

Ruth covers Hunter at her site. I did cover it originally -- that would be going back to 2019, not waiting until the moment THE NEW YORK POST published their first story on Hunter Biden's laptop in October of 2020. I've covered it. I've done that. I'm not interested in the plea deal -- the deal that is no more. Nor is it a story that gets no attention.

When I covered it, it was being ignored but that's no longer the case.

I defended NY POST's story, defended the publishing of it, called out NYT's attack article -- I believe we're the only ones who remember that article -- where NYT attacked the POST and insisted that the POST staff was ashamed and embarrassed and opposed to the publication of the laptop story. It was filled with lies. If you want to go after the media, that's where you start. But no one wants to go there. I don't have to, I know what happened with that article.

So I haven't run from that.

The e-mailer on this says that I'm ignoring the story and ignoring it because I'm voting for Joe Biden in 2024.

I'm voting Democrat in 2024 -- regardless of who the nominee is. I made that public here and did so in order that people could factor in what goes up here with that.

If you think it's effecting coverage, there's the answer for you.

No, I don't think that. We've covered this and we covered it at length.

The e-mailer notes Tara Reade's reTweets.

I'm so very happy she's found something to do in Russia. I guess she doesn't have any friends still so she needs to obsess over the country she defected from. Or maybe she and convicted pedophile Scott Ritter aren't talking these days? You do realize her online embrace of registered sex offender Ritter is what destroyed her. Most of us, actual survivors, no longer give a s**t about her. Even her online We Believe Tara group vanished over that. And should have. This was not Donald Duck has been accused of assault/rape by Daisy Duck and we used our own common sense to figure out who we believed. This was Scott Ritter got arrested three times, had to plea agreements, third time went to court and got convicted in a court of law, sent to prison and had to register as a sex offender. This is not, Do I believe Donald or Daisy? No, the court verdict ended it. (And read the testimony from the police -- especially about him peeling out of the parking lot -- if you really want to know what a liar Ritter is.)

So I don't care about Tara. I didn't care about the recent court victory either because the woman said -- on CNN -- that rape was "sexy."

Don't care. Can't help the entire world. Can't cover everything.

Due to the e-mail, I've looked at Tara's reTweets. They are garbage. "Devon Archer confirmed Joe Biden was THE BRAND, and he brought the most value to THE BRAND."

Huh?

That was confirmed by Devon Archer?

Maybe to the brain dead.

Of course Joe was "the brand." The deals with Hunter were due to the fact that Joe Biden was vice president. That's not news. Nor is it even new gossip. Hunter had no cachet on his own and no value if his father was Generic Smith.

Hunter traded on dad's name.

We covered all of this at length. Back when it mattered. We noted -- and applauded -- back when Sarah Chayes wrote "Hunter Biden’s Perfectly Legal, Socially Acceptable Corruption" (THE ATLANTIC).

Many people were not having the conversation before the election. We were and we did.

I don't do greatest hits. I've sung that song. Is there a new reason to sing it?

Tara Reade and Jonathan Turley believe so. They also believe in supporting homophobes and transphobes and racists.

At this point, there's nothing there. Could change, so far hasn't.
