The effort to smear Trump going into the election of 2016, to remove him from office after he won, to make up for that lapse by rigging the election of 2020, and to doggedly pursue him in the courts since he left the presidency is part of the larger conspiracy that I spell out in “Obamagate and Beyond”. Appended to that post is a long list of related reading. Of late, that list has become focused on the Biden family’s influence peddling scheme. Preventing the exposure of that scheme was and is one of the objectives that underlies the persecution of Trump.
Here’s a link to a timeline of events in the Biden family’s influence-peddling operation: House Committee on Oversight: The Bidens’ Influence Peddling Timeline.
Below is a selection of readings specifically related to the Biden scandal. The list ends in August 2023, at the point at which new items about Biden Family corruption began to appear too often to allow me to keep the list up to date. At the same time, some notice began to be paid by the legacy media — initially “spun” to exonerate the president, but increasingly critical of him. Where all of this will lead is anyone’s guess. Mine is here.
