Hunter Biden criminal case exposes journalists who ‘lie like hell’
Fox News
No wonder Americans have turned against the mainstream media. They see how the press protects the Biden family. Journalists don't investigate wrongdoing, they cover it up.
In the face of overwhelming evidence, some in the media now reluctantly admit that Joe was involved. So, they’ve shifted to another canard that he committed no crimes because he never personally profited from any of the ill-gotten gains. That’s twaddle, because it is not how the law reads. Under 18 USC 201, it is still a crime if the payout was directed to "any other person or entity" instead of the office holder. Gregg Jarrett is a Fox News legal analyst and commentator, and formerly worked as a defense attorney and adjunct law professor. His recent book, "The Trial of the Century," about the famous "Scopes Monkey Trial" is available in bookstores nationwide or can be ordered online at the Simon & Schuster website. Jarrett’s latest book, "The Constitution of the United States and Other Patriotic Documents," was published by Broadside Books, a division of HarperCollins on November 14, 2023. Gregg is the author of the No. 1 New York Times best-selling book "The Russia Hoax: The Illicit Scheme to Clear Hillary Clinton and Frame Donald Trump." His follow-up book was also a New York Times bestseller, "Witch Hunt: The Story of the Greatest Mass Delusion in American Political History."
In the age of President Joe Biden, journalists have become his dedicated foot soldiers and public apologists. No amount of dissembling is discouraged. They merrily contort evidence, mangle facts and twist the law into a pretzel to excuse documented acts of wrongdoing by the president and his greedy family. Beale put it more bluntly — they lie like hell.
