POLITICS Federal agents think they have enough evidence to charge Hunter Biden with tax and gun-buy crimes, report says PUBLISHED THU, OCT 6 20223:28 PM EDTUPDATED 26 MIN AGO Dan Mangan @_DANMANGAN KEY POINTS Federal agents believe they have enough evidence to support charging Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden, with tax crimes and making a false statement in connection with the purchase of a gun, The Washington Post reported.It is now up to U.S. Attorney for Delaware David Weiss, an appointee of former President Donald Trump, to decide whether to prosecute Hunter for those crimes.Hunter revealed in late 2020 that Weiss was conducting a criminal probe into his tax affairs. WATCH NOW VIDEO03:06 Investigators claim to have enough evidence to bring a case against Hunter Biden Federal agents believe they have enough evidence to support charging Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden, with tax crimes and making a false statement in connection with the purchase of a gun, The Washington Post reported Thursday. It is now up to U.S. Attorney for Delaware David Weiss, an appointee of former President Donald Trump, to decide whether to prosecute Hunter on those charges, noted the Post, which cited people familiar with the investigation. The newspaper reported that federal agents “determined months ago they had assembled a viable criminal case against the younger Biden.” In a statement to NBC News, Chris Clark, Hunter Biden’s lawyer, said: “It is a federal felony for a federal agent to leak information about a Grand Jury investigation such as this one. Any agent you cite as a source in your article apparently has committed such a felony. We expect the Department of Justice will diligently investigate and prosecute such bad actors.” “As is proper and legally required, we believe the prosecutors in this case are diligently and thoroughly weighing not just evidence provided by agents, but also all the other witnesses in this case, including witnesses for the defense,” Clark said. “That is the job of the prosecutors. They should not be pressured, rushed, or criticized for doing their job.” Hunter revealed in late 2020 that Weiss was conducting a criminal probe into his tax affairs. The Post in its report noted that the potential gun-related charge stems from Hunter’s October 2018 purchase of a handgun, which required him to fill out a federal form that asked whether he was a user of or addicted to narcotics. Hunter answered “no” to that question, despite being a user of crack cocaine at the time, according to a book that he later wrote. Read the full Washington Post article here.

Re <<direst>> Armstrong reminder re gold now and different gold later ... (the second chart flips to gold in different currencies, and indicates the souls saved so far so good) ask-socrates.com Blog Many people are very confused with inflation soaring, gold has failed to respond. I have tried over the years to dispel all the myths about gold that have been created as sales pitches to sell gold to widows, orphans, and hard-money people who believed that paper is just evil. Gold will rise when confidence declines in the US dollar. The constant nonsense that paper is evil has trapped so many into tremendous losses. Whatever money might be from cattle, bronze, silver, gold, or even clam or cowrie shells, it is always a battle between what is ever used for money v assets. As long as the vast majority of people believe in the dollar, then it does not matter what you believe. My father was a colonel under General Patton from North Africa all the way to Berlin. The German General Erwin Rommel faced Patton. However, he had written a book on tactical warfare. Patton studied it and knew what he would do. When he beat him, he boasted - Rommel, I read your book! My father always taught me that it did not matter what you believed, all that mattered was what your adversary believed. This is very true here in gold. Forget the hard money indoctrination. Until the major sees evil in the dollar, they will continue to seek cash over gold. Moreover, I was the first International Adviser because I had focused on forecasting currencies from the '70s. Having clients around the world has taught me that Adman Smith's Invisible Hand will indeed always work in every condition just as politicians will always act in their own self-interest. Investors will also react to their home currency and they will buy or sell whatever instrument there may be involved based entirely if it is going up or down in their home currency in which they are taxed. A REAL BULL market only takes place when gold or whatever instrument you are looking at is rising in terms of ALL CURRENCIES. Right now, gold is not making new highs in US dollars. But it is rising in terms of many currencies because they are witnessing a dollar rally. Hence, it is foreign buying that has created the paradox. Gold should be declining back to the 1400 level in a normal market. But it has been holding generally because it is rising in many foreign currencies. Next year is a Panic Cycle in gold. So be patient. We will be looking at this for the WEC and provide a detailed report.
