Are there incriminating recordings of Biden?
The confidential Ukrainian source certainly seemed to think so:
Sen. Chuck Grassley said Monday that the Burisma executive who allegedly paid Joe Biden and Hunter Biden kept 17 audio recordings of his conversations with them as an “insurance policy,” citing the FBI FD-1023 form that the bureau briefed congressional lawmakers on.
Grassley, R-Iowa, revealed from the Senate floor Monday what was said to be a redacted reference in the FBI-generated FD-1023 form alleging a criminal bribery scheme between then-Vice President Joe Biden and a foreign national that involved influence over U.S. policy decisions.
The source said that two of these conversations were with Joe Biden, and the rest with Hunter.
Did the FBI ever try to learn more about these alleged recordings? Or did they just figure it was all malarkey – unlike the well-known Trump pee-pee tape?
I am so cynical. Even if they exist, and there is a good chance they do, nothing will happen. It is so depressing. The US is over. We aren’t even up to the level of a Banana Republic.
Are there incriminating recordings of Biden?
And why would that matter, exactly?
But BUT we sure are coming up on ‘Biden’s Banana Republic’! The classic jingle of “Gilligan’s Island” that took Sisyphus for comic relief, jumps to mind. Although the First Mate Gillian was immensely much more loveable than the Biden crime syndicate’s bumbling henchman. But the last line of this shanty, “We’re on Gilligan’s Isle! ” sure rings true!
(OK — it seems I mis-recalled that last line. It reads “HERE on ‘Gilligan’s Isle’” — but I like my slip better! https://www.lyricsondemand.com/tvthemes/gilligansislandlyrics.html)

If there were recordings of Brandon committing crimes, the FBI would have gathered them and locked them away to use as blackmail. If blackmail isn’t possible, then it will be destroyed.
The FBI gathered terabytes of video from Jeffrey Epstein.
I’m so cynical that I figure if those recordings get out it’s to get Biden to resign so they can install someone else that they think will be better for 2024. (They’d have to get Kamala to drop out first though.)
its possible, then again when audio recordings of poroshenko’s dealing with zylochevsky they sanctioned who provided them, the lesson,
Incriminating evidence of Biden’s corruption* is what makes him the perfect Uniparty President. He’s in it for the money, and he’s easily controlled provided he still gets paid.
*Assuming he’s fully compos mentis. If he’s not, he’s even more easily controlled. No one is charge, so the Uniparty and the Deep State get what they want.
Two points:
1) Something will happen. In fact, many things will happen. Maybe not what you want. I expect worse before we get better, and I’m not predicting better anytime soon.
2) FBI had the first version of the whistleblower complaint in 2017. They had the laptop in early 2019. Much is being hidden, and it is almost certain FBI knows much, much more than we know. They are not investigating Biden. They are covering up for him.
Frederick,
Biden is not just in it for power and more corruption. He’s also there to protect himself and his family. But he’s also a pliable tool for the administrative state people and whoever in the WH is running things.

What I don’t understand is that Biden’s classified document issues were made public. I tended to think it was blue-on-blue to replace him for 24. Perhaps it was just to apply pressure.
It sure would be nice if the GOP was playing hardball (for our side) and had more than they are letting on, to lure the FBI into denials like when they revealed they had seen the 1023 after Wray denied it existed!
Now I hope the GOP has the recordings! Of course then the Dems will play the “fake recordings” card! I don’t care as long as the news gets out! And I can’t wait to see how the media explains the embargo on the whole thing they have played so far!
Fredrick’s Uniparty is so useful, it can explain anything and everything; better even than 42.
I’ve become cynical enough to think that incriminating evidence, within the contemporary DOJ, has become the fungible currency for the transactional influencing of events, as required to further the narrative program of the Democratic Party.
But incriminating evidence is only valuable up until the moment it is revealed to the public – so any transactional outcome must have a greater value than the value of control that is derived by keeping it secret.
We imagine there are quite a few people on the hook for incriminating evidence derived from the Epstein surveillance records. We know, generally, who is involved, and what kinds of things went on. We know his various facilities were comprehensively wired. We know there is a trove of records seized by the DOJ and never released, not even admitted to.
The exact list of clients has never been released. We know that such a list exists, though, and is kept secret. We know that they – the DOJ – know who and what is on tape. We can only guess – given the DOJ’s recent known history of dishonest behavior – that those former Epstein clients are doing whatever they’re told, to avoid exposure and potentially more than just public shaming.
Similarly, if Joe’s incriminating behavior is on hand, then it’s awaiting the day when its value is maximized in some transaction of greater value than a President doing what he’s told.
Now I hope the GOP has the recordings! — Ray Van Dune
Amen. Friends told me about the Grassley news & other pundits were saying, “Oh boy, they have the recordings.” That’s not what Grassley said. Some Ukrainian business exec. had the recordings at some point in time is what Grassley claimed.
I’m only slightly hopeful that something will come of this.
If these recordings exist, the Ukrainian government has them, and it would explain some things, too.
Yes. If you know the back story then the conversations Joe Biden had about Ukranian Privat Bank are damning.
“…it would explain some things, too.”
Heh…
Nonetheless, several questions(!) remain…
For example, why doesn’t Zelenskyy seem to care that “Biden” is doing “his” very best to finance Iran’s military drone program, which drones are being sent to Putin for use against Ukraine.
(Unless of course these military drones are NOT AT ALL for military use, no they are not; and anyone who says that they ARE are no-good, awful, simply-terrible liars…. Kinda’ like Iran’s purely civilian nuclear program, also heavily supported by “Biden”. Funny that(!)…)
Trump’s indictment coming just ahead of shocking, shocking, simply schocking revelations of Biden’s (NON-)corruption—I mean, who could have expected THIS???!
PURELY coincidental, no doubt.

As the honorable Jack Smith has told us (and with a straight mug, no less):
“We have one set of laws in this country, and they apply to everyone…”
(If he repeats it often enough, some people might even believe him! The truth, though, is that the usual suspect could care less that there IS a double standard…as long as Trump gets drawn and quartered—ALONG WITH HIS SUPPORTERS—and that “Biden” is still able to maintain power “to save America”….)
Speaking of covering up (NON-)corruption!
Ta-da!!!

Barry, that “CYA agent” line is wonderful.
After the FBI hid Hunters laptop, and supposedly “lost” it, do you REALLY think the FBI wouldn’t do the same thing to these recordings if they had them??
Chuck Grassley applying some fire to the sniff-meister’s tuchis!
Is something wrong with Grassley? He sounded positively Bidonian in his Senate ramblings!
Ray, Grassley was elected to the Senate during Carter’s defeat by Reagan in 1980. He is 89 years old. He should have retired from the Senate a decade ago.
Re Grassley. No gaslighter, but a straight shooter.
Incriminating recordings?
Not sure it matters at this point…since it would appear that the grand “American experiment” is at the “We’re All Hunter Now!” stage…

(Gosh, what would de Tocqueville say? Perhaps something along the lines of “such wonderful American exuberance!!”(?) “Incroyable!!”(?))
I saw photos that made the White House lawn look like one of those “Pride” parades which children should not watch.
Well, there’s that video from a Council on Foreign Relations talk where Biden brags about blackmailing the Ukrainian pm into killing a corruption investigation. No foreign aid unless the investigation is stopped. It should have killed his campaign for President, but it didn’t.
When queried about his misdeeds and transgressions, Joey speaks not – but flashes a Mona Lisa smile.
