what is that???
very, very true...
A mistake,
...it's the formula for free base nicotine. I grabbed the wrong image.
what did u think the 1st one was?? - if its the quaalude formula, i have searched many times, and have never been able to come up with the recipe- apparently some of the ingredients are no longer available, which i find hard to believe, that some chemist , somewhere can't replicate it... if i had to pick one drug, , quaalude would be it...A mistake,
Read my post that you quoted again. I see I'm not the only stoner here this morning.
I'll have two cocaines and a side of nicotine please.
Republicans used Hunter and other BS as a distraction. What Turd for Brains says daily is not what most America is for. He and his cronies are the worst in America and would gladly tear the country apart just to stay in power. They all have lost their minds worshiping Trump to this extent.
Biden is too old to be POTUS. He has his fair share of BS but he still believes in the Constitution. There is a huge difference between these 2 clowns..
Nikki Haley is a much better option for Republicans. Unfortunately, She will not make it.

1st off they all SUCK... saying that ,hunter n the biden's r fukin crooks... exactly what credentials does hunter have to be on a board of any company except maybe Pablo Escobar's Medellin Corp... the whole biden family, brother , sister, grandkids getting $$$ from an LLC.. exactly what service did jim and hunter provide... simple question... so far no answer...
Hunter's issues have nothing to do with his pops no matter how much the brianwashed want it. If you think Turd is a better option than Nikki you've been brainwashed... Biden's crimes are like J walking compared to the Trump crime family. The biggest problem the US has is it's full of dumbass people that sold their souls for nothing. The only thing they believe is what Turd tells them. I could list the differences between these 2 families crimes but it's just fake news to the brainwashed suckers. Trump and his cronies are a full on Cult. These people want Turd the Fascist dictator to be POTUS again lol.. History books are going to show how dumb millions are in the USA.
Congress makes laws not any POTUS..

Exclusive: Russia-linked smear campaign against Hunter Biden began earlier than previously thought

- A former KGB agent handed a thumb drive with Hunter Biden disinformation to an aide for former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo at a gala event in May 2019.
- The former KGB agent also presented the same disinformation to Justice Department officials in January 2019.
- The presentation marks the earliest known instance of a Russia-linked source pushing allegations about Hunter Biden and Burisma.
According to two sources with direct knowledge of the incident, a thumb drive containing poorly sourced allegations about Hunter Biden and his work for Burisma, a Ukrainian energy company, was thrust into the hands of one of Pompeo's aides at the conservative Claremont Institute's 40th anniversary gala in Beverly Hills on May 11, 2019. The man pushing the thumb drive was a citizen of an Eastern European country and a guest of Claremont. He was also, for a time, an FBI confidential informant, with the code name "Rollie." His true name is known to Business Insider, which is only identifying him as Rollie in order to protect sources who provided information for this story.
Rollie, on the other hand, seemed unconcerned about potential exposure. At first, he denied knowing anything about Pompeo when contacted by Business Insider. But when BI sent him a photo of him at the gala with Pompeo, he admitted that he had been there. "You can publish," he wrote. "It's advertising for me."

Rollie told associates and confirmed to Business Insider that he had once served in the KGB, the Soviet intelligence agency, before swearing loyalty to the country where he now resides. The thumb drive that Rollie gave Pompeo's aide contained some of the same material that Rollie had presented weeks earlier, in January 2019, in a briefing to Justice Department officials in Los Angeles.
"I'm not interested in the past," Rollie said when asked over WhatsApp about the briefing. He denied that he gave anyone a thumb drive at the Claremont Institute event.
Business Insider has obtained a copy of slides that accompanied Rollie's January 2019 presentation. They accuse Hunter Biden and his business associates of engaging in money laundering, tax evasion, and fraud. Rollie's slides offer a labyrinthine wire chart, clippings from old news articles, and a potpourri of links including various Ukrainian and Russian websites. President Biden's first name is repeatedly misspelled as "Josef." They contain no evidence of criminal activity.
Nevertheless, according to a disclosure prepared by FBI whistleblower Johnathan Buma, Rollie's handler, the material was taken seriously enough to be passed on to FBI agents in Delaware who were investigating Hunter Biden. Also included were some Ukrainian-language backup materials which Business Insider has not reviewed. Rollie confirmed to Business Insider that he had prior contact with the FBI.
The Rollie presentation sheds new light on the timeline of efforts by Russia and by operatives for Donald Trump to seed allegations about Joe Biden's relationship to Burisma with the media and government authorities. While questions about the propriety of Hunter's lucrative Burisma work in Ukraine were raised by the New York Times as early as 2015, and explored in a 2018 book by conservative author Peter Schweizer, they didn't explode into the forefront of the political conversation until March 2019. It was during that month that Rudy Giuliani gave Pompeo a folder of Hunter Biden material that he obtained from Ukraine, and right-wing investigative reporter John Solomon began publishing a series of columns about Hunter Biden and Burisma in The Hill. One month later, in April 2019, Hunter abandoned his laptop at a Delaware repair shop, eventually leading to a wave of revelations in October 2020 that included information about his business dealings in Ukraine.
The Hunter-Burisma material that was presented in January 2019, and again on the thumb drive given to Pompeo's aide in May 2019, appears to be the earliest known case of Burisma-related disinformation of foreign origin being ingested and apparently taken seriously by members of the US intelligence community. It also suggests a third channel of 2020 disinformation moving from East to West, one that is separate from the previously known efforts that went through Giuliani and Alexander Smirnov, another FBI informant with ties to Russia and Eastern Europe. Smirnov was indicted last week for lying to the FBI about Hunter Biden. Prosecutors have claimed in court filings that Smirnov has extensive ties to Russian intelligence.
It's easy to see why Hunter Biden's critics have focused on Burisma. The energy company paid Biden around $600,000 a year during a period that overlapped with his father's vice presidency. It's unclear what the company got for their money beyond the ability to brag about an indirect line into the White House. But almost five years after his departure from the board, Hunter Biden was never charged with any wrongdoing for his Burisma service. Instead, Special Counsel David Weiss has indicted Hunter for tax evasion and lying on a form to purchase a firearm.
The revelation about Rollie's thumb drive comes shortly after the indictment of Smirnov, for allegedly making false statements about Hunter Biden in June 2020. Like Smirnov, Rollie's materials accuse Hunter Biden of involving his father in Burisma's business and committing a vast off-the-books fraud. Smirnov's alleged lies included the allegation that Burisma officials paid a $5 million bribe to Joe Biden, and were memorialized in an FBI form 1023, which records raw reporting from confidential sources, that was circulated by GOP Sen. Charles Grassley. The thumb drive incident raises further questions about the ease with which foreign actors can obtain access to the highest levels of the US government and then pass off rubbish as legitimate intelligence.
A spokesperson for Pompeo did not respond to repeated requests for comment. There is no evidence to suggest that Pompeo or his aide did anything with the material on the thumb drive after receiving it.
A former State Department official who served under Pompeo told BI that it was not unusual for officials to receive random material from people they meet at social events, and that there was a process in place for handing such materials off to in-house experts for evaluation.
Business Insider reached out to the Claremont Institute, which was responsible for vetting the gala guest list, on Thursday and did not immediately receive a reply. After 2016, the Claremont Institute drifted from traditional conservative politics into more extreme territory. It granted a fellowship to MAGA troublemaker Jack Posobiec, who has used his online platform to spread conspiracy theories, and served as an organizing hub for the backlash to DEI initiatives in higher education.
The FBI, the Justice Department, and a lawyer representing Buma did not immediately return requests for comment sent after hours.

You are aware Nikki Haley wants you to need an id to get online right?
I don’t know why you’re so hung up on trump. Biden is just as shitty.
I guess you guys are into picking the better of two piles of shit.
Neither trump nor Biden is what we need, but we’ll survive either.
She also thinks that eggs are babies.Nikki Haley wants you to need an id to get on the interwebs.

you obviously have no idea how boards of directors work. There are few requirements to be a board member of any board and most are filled with family members, friends, and people with influence. That influence could simply be a last name, as was the case with Hunter Biden.
Meanwhile, in the face of real corruption like Jared’s $2 billion from the Saudis and trump’s millions from foreign governments while president doesn’t seem to concern you very much. I wonder why.
i know a bit about BOD's, n usually its a very low paying gig, but why all these LLC's.... why???
