But according to <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/12\/11\/biden-allies-move-to-intimidate-witnesses-ahead-of-gops-coming-hunter-probe\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">some new reporting<\/a> from the New York Post, there is a lot more going on than just a public relations push. Someone told the Washington Post about a recent meeting in California where friends and associates of the Biden family discussed a \u201cmore aggressive\u201d approach to keep the heat off of the Bidens. This includes threats of potential lawsuits against witnesses who are expected to be called to testify, likely over claims of defamation. And, of course, they will likely be working the social media circuit to let people know that anyone saying bad things about the Bidens may be in for a dose of cancel culture.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Just when you thought our politics could not get more poisonous, a recent meeting in California suggests the past is mere prelude. The Washington Post, which\u00a0<a id=\"reader.external-link.num-0\" href=\"https:\/\/www.msn.com\/en-us\/news\/politics\/some-hunter-biden-allies-making-plans-to-go-after-his-accusers\/ar-AA1571ie\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">revealed the powwow,<\/a>\u00a0described it as Biden family \u201callies\u201d planning an offensive to blunt any investigation into the Bidens\u2019 alleged multimillion-dollar influence-peddling schemes.<\/p>\n<p>Republicans will see it more like the gathering of the Legion of (Democratic) Doom. Some of the most controversial political operatives are involved in the all-hands-on-deck effort to protect the Bidens.<\/p>\n<p>The California meeting\u2019s host was none other than\u00a0<a id=\"reader.external-link.num-1\" href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/05\/12\/meet-hunter-bidens-sugar-brother-lawyer-kevin-morris\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hunter Biden\u2019s friend, agent and lawyer Kevin Morris<\/a>. After Hunter was placed under investigation for, among other possible charges, tax evasion,\u00a0<a id=\"reader.external-link.num-2\" href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/05\/08\/hollywood-lawyer-kevin-morris-paid-off-over-2m-of-hunter-bidens-taxes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Morris reportedly paid off as much as $2.8 million in back taxes for Hunter.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Kevin Morris\u2019 \u201clegion of doom\u201d is reportedly talking about defamation lawsuits against Fox News in general and Tucker Carlson in particular. Carlson recently produced <a href=\"https:\/\/nation.foxnews.com\/watch\/d6eecfabb4cb2572324269885cf21114\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a two-part documentary<\/a> called Biden Inc. which detailed all of these shady enterprises to a depth I\u2019d not seen before. He\u2019s been covering the Hunter Biden stories with gusto for years now. Of course, the odds of either Tucker or the cable news giant actually being \u201cintimidated\u201d by talk of a lawsuit are laughably low.<\/p>\n<p>But the Morris crew is talking about going after more people than just Fox News hosts. They have been engaged in \u201cextensive research\u201d regarding other likely witnesses including Hunter\u2019s former business partner Tony Bobulinski and John Paul Mac Isaac, the former owner of the computer repair shop where Hunter abandoned the \u201cLaptop from Hell.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jonathan Turley describes Morris\u2019 plan as the equivalent of \u201ca declaration of all-out war on potential witnesses.\u201d Turley also raises a pertinent question about how the Washington Post managed to gain such unfiltered access to information about the California meeting and the plans being hatched there. A \u201csecret campaign\u201d to thwart an investigation isn\u2019t very \u201csecret\u201d if it shows up on the front page of the WaPo.<\/p>\n<p>But that\u2019s really no mystery at all. These people all want the witnesses to know they are coming. They want to scare them into backing down before things reach the stage of filing lawsuits. Also, by publicizing the plot, they are getting the names of all the targets out in the open so the cancel culture warriors can begin taking preemptive shots at them.<\/p>\n<p>Could this really work? Could the investigation into Hunter and Joe Biden\u2019s former foreign business dealings actually be derailed and be done in such an open and public way? I personally doubt it. I think there is too much water that\u2019s already passed under this bridge to turn back now and the Republicans in charge of the applicable committees in the House will have no incentive to end their investigatory work.<\/p>\n<p>Bobulinski has already given dozens of lengthy interviews and provided a ream of documents to back up his story about his business dealings with Hunter Biden and \u201cthe Big Guy.\u201d John Paul Mac Isaac might be another story, but he\u2019s done plenty of talking himself. He would be hard-pressed to suddenly go silent in the face of a congressional subpoena. But if the investigation is somehow derailed, you will be witnessing a tragically corrupt system at its absolute worst.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As Karen recently reported, the allies of the Biden clan have been meeting to come up with ways to deflect criticism of the family and forestall potential criminal investigations into<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1761796,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[547],"tags":[8066,3706,5458,3822,8823,3819,4209],"class_list":["post-1774532","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-bongino-report","tag-allies","tag-bidens","tag-bongino","tag-hunter","tag-intimidating","tag-report","tag-witnesses"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1774532","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1774532"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1774532\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1761796"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1774532"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1774532"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1774532"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
