Trump melting down...off twitter




“Where's Durham? Is he a living, breathing human being? Will there ever be a Durham report?”

@rossgarber: Trump seems to still not realize he got played by whoever sold him on John Durham for this mission. Durham is an apolitical career DOJer with a severe ethical compass.

Secret Service linked to incident involving Hunter Biden’s gun – report

Gun belonging to president’s son was dumped in a trash can behind a grocery store then found to be missing, Politico reports

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/mar/25/hunter-biden-gun-cover-up-secret-service

The US Secret Service became involved in a bizarre incident in which a gun belonging to Hunter Biden was dumped in a trash can behind a grocery store then found to be missing, the website Politico reported on Thursday. Delaware police were concerned the gun, a .38 revolver, could be found and used in a crime, the website said, adding that it was eventually found by a man searching the trash for recycling.

The Secret Service reportedly approached the store where the gun was purchased, seeking to obtain all records of the transaction. The owner reportedly declined. Hunter Biden is the president’s second son. The incident reportedly happened in late October 2018, when Joe Biden was out of office and not receiving formal Secret Service protection.

Hunter Biden was the target of efforts by supporters of Donald Trump to dig up political dirt on the family, efforts which in part led to Trump’s first impeachment. A rightwing website, the Blaze, reported the gun incident in October last year. The Secret Service told Politico it had no record of the alleged incident. A spokesperson also said “records confirm that the agency did not provide protection to any member of the Biden family in 2018, and that the Secret Service had no involvement in this alleged incident.”

A White House spokesperson told the website: “President Biden did not have any knowledge of, or involvement in, the Secret Service’s alleged role in this incident, and neither he nor any family member was a protectee at that time.” Politico also reported that the Secret Service had been involved in informal protection of the former vice-president. The Secret Service did not comment on that claim.

Not that it has to, but it shows he does not accept the characterization.

6. Word on the street Donnie is that Durham not only found no wrong-doing by Obama-Biden

but instead uncovered a massive web of Trump collusion with Russia and other enemies of the USA during the 2016 election.

He'll soon be sending some nice agents your way to have a little chat.

trump is a permanent pot of boiling festering goo.
