Bidens' Scheming: Why 'Laptop From Hell' Exposure Irks the Dems More Than It Does the GOP_我的网站

A |     "What the revelations appear to show is that there was a close relationship between Joe Biden and his son, Hunter, and that there was likely high mutual awareness of one another’s business interests and, possibly, mutual support for some of these," said Joseph Oliver Boyd-Barrett, a professor emeritus at Bowling Green State University. "I don’t think the scandal has the power in itself of firing widespread outrage against Biden: there are just too many other things to be outraged about just now.",A review of Hunter Biden's personal calendar on the so-called "laptop from hell", which was abandoned by Hunter at a repair shop in Wilmington, Delaware, in April 2019, shows that the younger Biden and his business associate Eric Schwerin frequently met with then-US VP Joe Biden between 2008 and 2016. Hunter held at least 30 business meetings with his father either in the White House or the latter's vice-presidential residence, the Naval Observatory. Schwerin was reportedly invited to 21 out of the 30 confabs.,The New York Post found that all of the meets occurred days or even hours after Hunter's negotiations with high-profile foreign clients, prompting the media outlet to suggest that the younger Biden apparently discussed his business dealing with his father. The Post even goes so far as to not rule out that Hunter passed messages and requests from his clients to the then-vice president.,'Laptop From Hell': Hunter Biden's Calendar Suggests President Joe Was Well Aware of Business Trips17 July, 16:44 GMT,The latest revelation apparently has earmarks of an influence-peddling scheme, according to Charles Ortel, a Wall Street analyst and investigative journalist. What's more, Hunter's dealings with foreign tycoons and politicians have already been in the crosshairs of the US Department of Justice (DoJ) for quite a while.,"In theory, at least one US attorney has been investigating Hunter Biden and likely others for years, possibly in conjunction with a grand jury," said Ortel. "If this investigation is serious and objective, it must examine how Joe Biden and his family amassed so much wealth during decades of 'public service'.",However, "the practice of trading influence for off-market financial benefits is not confined to the Bidens or to Democrats alone," the analyst pointed out, asking rhetorically: "How did the Obamas, Bushes and Clintons become so wealthy?",At the same time, an in-depth investigation into the Bidens' shady conduct could also shed light on the unfolding Ukraine crisis, given Joe's role as Barack Obama's Ukraine appointee shortly after the 2014 coup d’état in Kiev, and Hunter's service at the Ukrainian energy firm Burisma at the time, according to Boyd-Barrett.,"It would be important, in a more rational polity – which of course this isn’t – to look very critically indeed at Joe Biden and Hunter Biden’s peculiar history with the 2014 coup and, subsequently, with Ukrainian energy interests, even marveling at the possibility that a private history with Ukrainian elites may have contributed to a fatally rash misreading of the events of February 24 and the lead-up to it," the professor said.,Talented Mr Biden: Hunter's Art Sales Reek of Pay-to-Play But DoJ Lost Sense of Smell, Analysts Say29 October 2021, 13:00 GMT,Laptop From Hell Exposure Comes Ahead of Midterms,The timing of the latest revelation comes as partisan strife for the control over the US Congress intensifies. The specter of the GOP jumping at the opportunity to use Joe's apparent involvement in his son's business activities to crush the Dems during the midterms and impeach the US president with a congressional majority has been raised.,While Republicans "may well, in effect, take control by next year," it is unclear whether they will double down on investigating the Bidens, especially given the mainstream press' reluctance to cover the issue, according to Boyd-Barrett.,The professor suggested that the GOP "could weigh the advantages earned them by the Durham investigation" instead. Special Counsel John Durham's indictments of former Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann and ex-MI6 agent Chris Steele's source Igor Danchenko are very important for the Republicans as they help debunk the Russiagate hoax and mainstream media lies about Donald Trump's "collusion" with Russia, according to the academic.,Durham's Probe: Hillary Clinton Sowed Dragon's Teeth by Peddling Trump-Russia Hoax, Analyst Says5 October 2021, 16:30 GMT,Could Joe Biden be Impeached?,House GOP Conference Chair Elise Stefanik previously signaled that she would subpoena Hunter Biden if Republicans win back control of Congress in the 2022 midterm elections. She noted that the Post's latest exposure appears to be yet more evidence of corruption.,While potential House investigations into the Bidens may indeed take place and even turn into impeachment hearings if the lower chamber is controlled by the GOP, the fate of this effort seems unclear, according to Ortel.,"Conservative, non-RINO [Republicans in Name Only] candidates now appear poised to win a wave election in 2022," he projected. "Things may change, but no current projections show Republicans reaching 67 out of 100 seats in the US Senate which is the number of votes required to convict an impeached person.",What's more possible, according to the analyst, is that the Democrats, already damaged by Joe Biden's incompetent domestic and foreign policies, will turn on him and force him out.,"Influence-shapers are far to the left of Joe Biden and mounting evidence shows they are done protecting Biden and rightly so," Ortel said.,If Joe Biden steps down, it's unlikely that the Dems will agree to see Kamala Harris replacing him, the analyst continued.,"Behind the scenes, major Democrat donors are trying to decide whether they can convince Michelle Obama to jump in and also to convince the Clintons to remain home with all their political and personal baggage packed up for good," he said, projecting that a new centrist Democrat presidential candidate could potentially emerge in order to fill Joe's shoes.。    

打不过!确实打不过!昨晚的巴塞罗那决赛,鲁内用一场现象级的发挥击败了阿尔卡拉斯夺得冠军!尽管阿尔卡拉斯在第二盘受伤似乎让鲁内这次夺冠的含金量失去一些成色,但考虑到第一盘的表现,即便阿尔卡拉斯不受伤,恐怕也很难阻挡这样的鲁内!


作为曾经被看好的网坛“三小巨头”,鲁内在过去两年的状态一直都萎靡不振。说来也奇怪,鲁内本身的打法就非常全面,正反拍技术更是非常均衡,而且一出道就有着“小德约”的称号,然而却怎么也打不出来。不过,正所谓“浪子回头金不换”,鲁内终于在本周的巴塞罗那迎来了爆发,连胜拉莫斯、巴埃斯、鲁德、卡恰诺夫挺进决赛,并最终用一场非常出色的表现击败阿尔卡拉斯夺得冠军!


对于自己曾经的低迷,鲁内这周也有一段非常精彩的采访,他谈到了自己的来时路,也谈到了目前他对自我的理解和认知。

“在我至今为止的职业生涯中,确实犯过一些错误,比如频繁更换教练。

B | 但现在,我更清楚地知道该如何集中注意力,我在球场上的位置,以及我的体能水平。之前我所做的所有改变都让我偏离了正轨。我曾经迷失过方向,但现在我终于找到了回归的路。我现在知道要想达到巅峰,你必须做正确的事情,而不是退而求其次。”


而在谈到自己夺冠有什么秘诀时,鲁内坦言,这很大程度上要得益于去年奥运会德约科维奇夺冠对自己的启发。他坦言,“我会想,诺瓦克会怎么做去打败他呢?我在头脑中尝试回放了一下去年的奥运会男单决赛,然后我尝试也打出诺瓦克那样的风格。

C | 我要让他打出很多多回合球,我也很高兴在关键时刻我保持了冷静和勇气。”


而关于这一点,从全场比赛的技术统计中也可以看出一些门道:鲁内全场打出18个制胜球并伴随24个非受迫性失误,而阿尔卡拉斯则是16个制胜球,但伴随33个非受迫性失误!用更低的风险打出更加有侵略性的回球,正是鲁内击败阿尔卡拉斯夺冠的秘密。

此外,在本场比赛还有一份数据值得注意,那就是双方的网前得分率:鲁内16次上网拿下12分,而阿尔卡拉斯则15次上网仅拿到6分。因此,尽管我们说,尽可能地拖进多拍是鲁内今天的主要战术,但显然,他也考虑到了想击败阿尔卡拉斯,就不能单纯停留在底线与之缠斗,同样需要来到网前给阿尔卡拉斯带来更大的压力。

再来关注阿尔卡拉斯的伤病问题,在这场决赛中,12天出战10场比赛的阿尔卡拉斯,身体终于出现了问题,过度的消耗和疲惫让他在巴塞罗那赛决赛中感觉到右侧的内收肌部位出现了问题,并在第二盘初段曾申请医疗暂停。赛后,根据《马卡报》消息,阿尔卡拉斯将于周一,也就是今天下午做核磁共振检查,以确认伤势严重程度,届时将决定其是否能参加马德里大师赛。


对于自己本次出现的伤病,阿尔卡拉斯坦言,“第二盘开局打得很激烈,有很多高强度的多拍回合,当时有两个回合感觉右腿的内收肌有些酸痛。

F | 当你感觉不适的时候,脑中也会拉响警报,想要完全专注到比赛中就很困难了,你会担心自己的身体状况如何,想要继续坚持、保持比赛水准会变得很艰难。就目前的情况和感觉来看,我觉得自己要休息两天,当然即使不受伤我也要休战两天,我也会和医疗团队去沟通做检查,不过我相信这不会影响我参加马德里大师赛。”


在阿尔卡拉斯输掉巴塞罗那的决赛后,由于兹维列夫在同时期的慕尼黑夺冠,因此他以5分的微弱优势夺回世界第二的排名,不过考虑到兹维列夫后面还有罗马大师赛的巨分要保,因此排名应该仍然有非常大的波动性。
