83. Has James Biden said anything about this?

Aug 2019

Will Ukraine now be getting the funding Trump is holding back, or will there be even more shit slung Biden's way?

Honestly, if true, it sucks...but did any of that make it back to Joe Biden? Have not heard anything about that yet?

Trump changed the GOP policy platform for Putin's world view. Ivanka is getting patents from China and the boys are still making foreign real estate development deals. Fucking Jared tried to tout real estate development to the Israelis and Palestinians!
Yesterday's news I guess.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

The court document pdf is on The Guardian's website of the OP, I just re-posted Uncle Joe Aug 2019 #36

Correction it's "sworn declarations" that are the court document pdf Uncle Joe Aug 2019 #59

how many of the "sworn declarations" directly involve Joe Biden? N/T lapucelle Aug 2019 #67

What part of the OP or affidavit do you not understand? n/t Uncle Joe Aug 2019 #68

What this has to do with candidate Biden, N/T lapucelle Aug 2019 #70

Possibly nothing, it's an allegation and pending lawsuit, I imagine it depends Uncle Joe Aug 2019 #72

It's an allegation about a person other than the candidate. I trust responsible journalists and lapucelle Aug 2019 #73

I view the Guardian as a responsible site of record and there are multiple others that have covered Uncle Joe Aug 2019 #74

The Guardian is generally not considered to be a newspaper of record. lapucelle Aug 2019 #75

I believe it's as good as the rest and as I stated, they're not the only one that Uncle Joe Aug 2019 #77

It's a lawsuit, not a trial, lapucelle Aug 2019 #81

Why do you believe he is being sued and Uncle Joe Aug 2019 #82

I "believe" that Joe Biden is not being sued. lapucelle Aug 2019 #86

Well I believe there are worse case scenarios than that but just taking your scenario Uncle Joe Aug 2019 #87

A lawsuit doesn't involve a trial. If lawsuits did, we would have known about this one earlier: ehrnst Aug 2019 #89

False, a lawsuit can reach a settlement which happens most of the time or go to civil trial. n/t Uncle Joe Aug 2019 #94

OK - noted. However, this lawsuit was far, far more directly involved with a POTUS candidate ehrnst Aug 2019 #95

We don't know anything until it's settled or the trial ends. n/t Uncle Joe Aug 2019 #96

We definitely know about the $30,000 harassment settlement against the Sanders campaign. ehrnst Aug 2019 #98

We don't know the full circumstances, result nor the end date of the lawsuit against Uncle Joe Aug 2019 #102
