If you haven’t been sitting in a hospital waiting room, or at an airport bar, or stuck in purgatory expiating before ascending, you may not know that the right-wing-o-sphere is bubbling over with claims of proof that the Biden family received “more than $1 million” in 2017. From China!!!! In case you recently woke up from a 10-year nap, in 2017 Donald Trump was the sitting president of the United States and Joe Biden was retired from being the vice president of the United States, as well as a former U.S. senator.
Does this rival the estimated $5.4 million Donald Trump had flowing into a strange lease at a Trump-owned property during his presidency? From China!!!! Does this rival the $15.8 million penthouse sold to a “Chinese-American businesswoman named Xiao Yan Chen” at one of his Manhattan buildings shortly after Trump became president? She’s From China!!!! Maybe it rivals the kind of prospective money Trump could make with the 38 new trademarks he magically got fast-tracked about 60 days into his presidency. From Chi - - you get it.
On Thursday, Fox News host Martha MacCallum had on senior political analyst Juan Williams and former visage of children’s nightmares Kellyanne Conway to discuss the “revelations” uncovered by the Republican investigation into Hunter Biden’s penis.

In this one clip, Williams does his best to remind former Donald Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway, host MacCallum, and the Fox News audience that Trump son-in-law Jared Kushner was actually working in the administration with a boatload of serious responsibilities, and it’s very well-documented that Kushner received a ton of money—along with everyone else in the Trump crime family—from foreign coffers. Williams wondered why the Republican-led House was not investigating these facts, considering its fetish with elected officials and foreign money. One of the more glaring payouts to Kushner was the $2 billion he received in Saudi investments from the crown prince of Saudi Arabia.
MacCallum asked Conway what she thought about that glaring fact—the $2 billion thing. To Jared. From Saudi Arabia. Conway began by, what many might call, throwing Jared Kushner under the bus, saying “Uh, well, ah Jared is of course the only person, I think, who’s benefited in the billions with a ‘B’ from the Trump presidency—that’s for sure.” She then proceeded to say, “But, ah look, I think what-aboutism isn’t going to work here, Martha and Juan.”
It is never not entertaining to watch infighting between wretched rich people. But Kellyanne clearly forgot most of Kushner’s sins. She didn’t even mention the money from China. Or the hundreds of millions Jared and Ivanka made together during their time pretending to work for Americans in the White House. She definitely didn’t bring up the Forbes estimation of Trump’s businesses raking in $2.4 billion (with a “B”) during his four years as one of the worst presidents in the history of the country. She also forgot to mention how former Education Secretary Betsy DeVos, already a billionaire, made somewhere in the vicinity of a quarter-billion dollars while she was serving in Trump’s cabinet.
