High Crime or Legitimate Investigation?

Written on 11/15/21.

The Ashley Biden diary case is getting more interesting.

To recap: Ashley Biden is Joe’s daughter, and she went to drug rehab in 2020. Before the election, Biden’s people called the AG and claimed she had been burglarized (sure) and that her rehab diary and some other things (sure) had been taken. The DOJ launched an investigation. Two people tried to sell the diary to Project Veritas, claiming they found it after it was abandoned, and they were turned down. Project Veritas tried to turn the diary over to Ashley Biden’s lawyer, who refused it because he didn’t want to say it was genuine. They also tried to give it to law enforcement. The FBI just raided three homes searching for evidence. All the homes belonged to journalists. James O’Keefe was one. Another was a Project Veritas employee. The third was a former employee.

That’s most of it.

I blogged about the story, saying I was amazed that the DOJ was chasing a worthless diary. It looked like corruption to me. Liberal news outlets buried or ignored the story. Eventually legal experts started voicing the same concerns I had. My assertion is that this proves I’m not crazy, even though I believe the story about Noah’s ark and I keep writing about the rapture.

Additional facts: the FBI, possibly taking a cue from Dick Morris and Bill Clinton, invaded O’Keefe’s home on a Saturday, assuring that the lazy, pro-left press would have an excuse to ignore it. Dick Morris, Clinton’s former fixer, used to arrange it so the White House released problematic news on Friday afternoons, knowing journalists were too lazy to go back to work and cover it. O’Keefe’s home was invaded before dawn, and the FBI threw him against a wall outside his apartment and handcuffed him, and he remained there, in his underwear, displayed before his neighbors. Legally, if not ethically or morally, Biden has the authority to micromanage DOJ and FBI activities, so he could force them to persecute his political enemies if he wanted.

Like actual legal experts (I just blog as a hobby), I wondered how a worthless diary which the Bidens denied was genuine could ground a federal investigation. Now we have answers.

The search warrant mentions three crimes: conspiracy to move stolen property across state lines, conspiracy to possess stolen property, and movement of stolen propert across state lines. These are federal crimes that fall under federal statutes, not common law. Problem: in order for these crimes to occur, the property has to be worth at least $5000.

I read about the warrant, and my insides sank. I thought, “Biden really is that corrupt. He is forcing the DOJ to undertake a personal vendetta when he knows there is no possibility a federal crime was committed.”

I knew Biden was corrupt and dishonest, not to mention narcissistic and combative, but it was disheartening to think he would do something this brazen. It was like watching a cold war go hot. Sometimes a conflict will fester for a long time without much direct action, and then the gloves will come off and all hell will break loose. I thought this was one of this times. I’m not so sure now, but this was my mindset after reading about the warrant.

It seems like no nationally recognized expert is doing what I did yet: they don’t seem to be trying to answer the $5000 question, so I’ll do it. I think the DOJ has decided the diary is worth over $5000 because journalists offered to pay more than $5000 for it.

If you’re a TV talking head who steals ideas from blogs, you’re welcome.

The accused thieves, known as R.K. and A.H. (no giggling), claim they found the diary abandoned in a room where Ashley Biden had stayed. If that’s true, no federal case, because no theft. No theft means no conspiracy to move stolen goods, no conspiracy to receive stolen goods, and no movement of stolen goods. You can’t be a murderer if the victim was already dead when you showed up.

The DOJ must be trying to prove the diary was real, stolen, and the subject of at least one sincere offer of more than $5000. They also have to prove there was a conspiracy and that whoever received the diary knew or should have known it was stolen, and if they’re going after O’Keefe, they have to show his efforts to return the diary don’t suffice to absolve him of guilt.

Criminal cases are usually simple, and the same can be said of many criminal attorneys, but this case seems to pose some questions that are somewhat difficult to resolve. Maybe the case law has already answered them. I am too lazy to investigate, because no one is paying me and I don’t do criminal law anyway.

Here is a question: can a worthless diary be considered valuable under the statutes if a buyer doesn’t make a sincere offer until it crosses state lines?

Let’s say I steal your favorite Beanie Baby, which has a street value of nothing. Then I move to another state. Someone there, a lunatic, offers me a hundred grand for it. Did I violate the statute? What if the buyer calls me before I move, and he says, “Bring me the special edition Birthday Bear, and I’ll pay you handsomely,” but no figure is discussed until I arrive? What if he says he wants to look it over to see if it’s worth buying?

What if the buyer makes a sincere offer of $6000, I make the trip, and he then reduces it to $4000? What if that happens, and then a different buyer offers me $10,000? Am I guilty? Was I guilty when I stole the Beanie Baby, when we talked on the phone, when I took it across state lines, after the first offer was made, or after the second offer was made?

When and how is the value established?

What about proving theft?

I do not believe the diary disappeared in a burglary, because it’s not plausible. The Bidenistas told law enforcement several items, including the diary, were taken. That suggests the criminal was not a political operative. If James O’Keefe hires you to steal Ashley Biden’s diary, you’re not going to wait around in her house, picking through knickknacks and taking junk while precious time ticks away. It makes no sense.

A burglar who was not a political operative would not take the diary. Burglars aren’t clever people who try to destabilize elections. They are generally idiots who grab whatever they can in order to fund drug habits or degenerate parasitic lifestyles. I had no idea who Ashley Biden was in 2020, and I’m a fairly bright person. The notion that a crackhead or career burglar would understand the significance of her diary is not tenable.

I think Joe Biden’s people faked a burglary so the DOJ could get involved. They were probably alerted to the disappearance of the diary, perhaps by the people who possessed it. A federal investigation would have seemed like a good way to stifle the eruption by intimidating the finders and journalists. You may think a top-level politician wouldn’t commit a crime like that. Well, think about Nixon and the long list of Congressmen who have committed felonies.

Filing a false police report is easy, and it’s very hard for the police, who really aren’t very good at solving cases, to prove you did it. And how highly motivated would Deep State FBI and DOJ employees be?

No one has gone after St. Fauci, who clearly lied to Congress. That’s a crime. It shows how the system really works. Informed people are aware of many similar abuses.

My guess is that the diary was abandoned. I think Ashley Biden was done with it because she had left rehab, so she did’t keep it.

If that’s true, then why would the FBI keep hammering away? One possible answer: they may have coerced the innocent finders of the diary they were going to prison if they didn’t confess.

Surely the FBI wouldn’t try to coerce a fake confession or convict an innocent person.

Oh, wait. Michael Flynn.

News flash for lay people: cops are allowed to lie to you, and that includes federal cops. It’s perfectly legal. They can put you in one room and your best friend in another, and they can tell each of you the other one says you’re guilty. Look it up. It should be illegal, because, like torture, it leads to bogus confessions, but it’s done every day.

If the FBI could get one or both of the finders to confess and take a plea, purely out of terror, then one of the elements necessary for the issuance of the subpoena and warrants would be satisfied.

The FBI could be on a fishing expedition. That means they may be using immoral or unethical means to get evidence for an investigation which shouldn’t have started unless the evidence were already in hand.

The government can’t come to your house on a whim and look around to see if you’ve committed a crime. They have to have some reason that will make a judge happy. In the absence of evidence, they may be motivated to create false evidence, and a coerced, invalid confession will do just fine.

Maybe the FBI doesn’t know whether the journalists did anything wrong but decided to use bad confessions to bypass the Fourth Amendment and root around in the journalists’ data to see what they can come up with. The Deep State, which is very real, does not like Project Veritas, and O’Keefe and his employee surely have a lot of data the Deep State could use to derail other O’Keefe projects and, conceivably, convict Project Veritas personnel of crimes.

If the cops get permission to search my house for a stolen toaster, and while they’re ripping the place up, they see a dozen hand grenades on the kitchen counter, I’ll have to answer for the hand grenades, even if the toaster never turns up and the person who filed the police report chimes in later to say he found it in his garage.

The FBI may well be looking for metaphorical hand grenades.

O’Keefe and his lawyers know this, and it’s why they got the judge to consider appointing an “impartial” (Why do we even use that word?) special master to go over the evidence and determine what the FBI/DOJ should be allowed to see. Supposedly, the authorities have been forced to stop going through O’Keefe’s phone. Right, because it takes weeks, not minutes, to clone a phone’s data. Who knows how many copies are on FBI/DOJ flash drives already?

“The FBI would never do that!” Really? Must we go there? The vast majority of the time, any law enforcement organization will do the right thing, if not out of principle, then out of fear and because, in most situations, they don’t need to do anything sleazy. Breaking the law can require a lot of planning and effort, so that also has to be considered. Law enforcement people usually uphold the law, but exceptions are commonplace.

Look at what prosecutor Binger did in the Rittenhouse case, on national TV.

If the feds got shaky confessions, they really need to be sure the evidence won’t blow up in their faces. If the finders got scared and said things to make the feds happy, and the confiscated data proves those things are not true, it would lead to acquittals and possibly scandals which could include a presidential impeachment. The feds may be scouring the data primarily to see if coerced confessions will blow up on them later.

I think the diary was found innocently, that the journalists involved committed no crime, that the Biden gang lied about the burglary, and that the feds are trying to bootstrap. But I’m just guessing. What if serious crimes were committed?

O’Keefe has stepped in it before. He used to go into situations with inadequate legal advice, and he was charged with crimes. Maybe he, or one of the other journalists, has done it again.

How smart is O’Keefe? Has he learned from past scrapes with the law, or is he still winging it? I would expect Project Veritas to have top-notch lawyers on hand to provide prophylactic advice before the commencement of any caper. It’s hard to believe O’Keefe would risk his liberty foolishly, given his history. But he may have done it.

Remember Scott Ritter, the wacky, arrogant arms inspector who used to say inflammatory, unhelpful things about the Bush II administration and the second Iraq war? He was arrested for sexual escapades involving a sting operation he apparently thought was a girl in her mid-teens. It killed his career. He got probation and avoided conviction the first time he was charged, but years later, he got charged a second time and went to prison. Not only did he do the same basic thing again; he was so cocky, he rejected a plea and spent over two years in the federal can. People don’t always learn their lessons quickly.

Maybe, hard as it would be to believe, the diary really was stolen in the burglary the Biden crew reported, and maybe the feds have good, solid evidence that this is true. Maybe they’re just looking for data that shows one or more journalists made communications incriminating themselves. Maybe at least one of the thieves has some of those communications on his phone, and the feds want to confirm them from the other end.

What does this all add up to?

If the searches are shown to be improper, and/or the burglary turns out to be a hoax, Biden could be impeached and/or convicted, depending on the breaks. If it can be shown that he or people close to him pushed a weak, daughter-privilege investigation even though they knew it was wrong, Biden could find himself sniffing hair back in Delaware in the private sector.

Then our president would be 28% Harris. Oh, well. That will probably happen soon anyway.

The finders could turn on the feds. Whistleblowers could emerge. Anything is possible.

This would all be very bad for the cozy, smoochy relationship among Democrats, the Deep State, and the press.

If, on the other hand, it turns out one or more of the journalists are at fault, some of them might do time or at least lose their livelihoods.

I think it will not be possible to prove the diary was stolen, and I think the charges will evaporate. Then the press will generally ignore the story, until a few brave souls start pushing it, and then it may turn into a big stink, with many organizations jumping on the bandwagon and siding with O’Keefe while trying not to touch him any more than they have to.

If these things don’t happen, I think the finders will be shown to be guilty, and then there will be one or more journalist trials, and the public, which can’t even understand simple cases, will go nuts arguing about the merits.

I don’t know. I’m not an expert. I haven’t done significant research. I haven’t seen what the feds have seen. I just like to guess.

Biden’s family is remarkable. So many bad things have happened to them, they resemble the Kennedys. Three premature deaths out of seven people, plus miserable, defeated lives for the surviving adult children who are Biden’s legacy. Biden himself has had surgery for two intracranial aneurysms, and now, just when he has gotten what he has always wanted, he has dementia, an imploding country, plummeting polls for himself, disastrous polling for his vice president, and stadiums resounding with a popular chant suggesting someone perform an unwelcome sex act on him. People also ridicule him for his enhanced teeth, hair transplants, facelift scars, and motionless forehead, which suggests the use of botox.

It’s interesting to speculate on all this stuff. Maybe I should be more distressed by it, because it’s happening in my country, where I have to live. The thing is, the problems of the apocalypse, including the rapid decline of America, haven’t harmed me or my wife significantly yet, apart from making it hard for us to get together.

By the way, I just saw a scientist on Youtube, saying a Swedish team has found evidence that the spike protein from the mRNA vaccine can enter cell nuclei and affect two important genes. One gene is important in the repair of severed DNA strands. My lay understanding: the shots may result in damage to our DNA.

This is why I didn’t want to take the mRNA shot in the first place. My reasons were spiritual, not scientific.

Curses and blessings are recorded in our DNA. You may scoff, but things like good health, talent, intelligence, height, good looks, physical strength, resistance to addiction and infection, resistance to cancer, and resistance to many diseases can be largely attributed to DNA sequences. Blessings. On the other hand, Huntington’s Chorea, type I diabetes, many types of cancer, low intelligence, ugliness, dwarfism, and even sexual perversion can be carried in our DNA. Curses.

When I say blessings and curses are encoded in our DNA, I’m not expressing an opinion. It’s a medical fact.

DNA seems to have importance to God, because he flooded the earth to get rid of the genetic contribution of fallen angels. They had had sex with women, and their cursed offspring were destroying mankind. For a long time, I’ve suspected that some curses and blessings can affect our DNA. I suspect that changes can bring us closer to the children of darkness or even make us part of that group.

When the mRNA vaccines came out, we were told they could not possibly affect our DNA. They were supposed to make us make the spike protein and then dissipate. I read that, and I thought about all the other rosy medical predictions, made during the last century, that had turned out to be false. I thought, “One day, these people may turn around and tell us the shots change our DNA.” Now that day has arrived. In fact, it arrived in October.

I am no biologist. I am no geneticist. I am no doctor. I’m just a religious extremist. Nonetheless, it looks like THE SCIENCE (PBUI, PBUI*) may have been wrong, and I may have been right even though scientists had a tremendous amount of evidence suggesting they were right, and I had pretty much none to the contrary. All I had going for me was disdain for the arrogance of human beings. Remember the “unsinkable” Titanic?

So what does the Swedish study mean?

The guy who explained it in the video I saw is some sort of scientist, and he says it’s important to see if the study’s conclusions can be reproduced and proven correct, so maybe the whole thing is a fuss over nothing. But when a scary warning has a good basis in research, should you wait to see it proven right before acting on it? The general rule in life is that you err on the side of safety.

Smart people avoided cigarettes long before the first cancer report came out. They saw how unhealthy smokers were. They knew it didn’t make sense to smoke one’s lung tissue like a commercial fishery smoking salmon. They knew refraining from smoking did no harm.

The vaccine situation is different, because vaccines seem to do good, not harm, and eschewing vaccines appears to raise the risk of severe permanent damage and death. But you don’t have to take an mRNA vaccine. Yet. They haven’t banned the adenovirus vaccine. You can always take that one and avoid the mRNA shot.

I’ve had the adenovirus shot. It also makes us make the spike protein, but as far as I can determine from Googling, it hasn’t been shown to pose a risk of sticking it in our nuclei. Maybe it does. Biology is not simple, and I know little about it. I chose the J&J shot for the specific reason that it might decrease risk to my DNA, which must be really wonderful, given what a great person I am.

I prayed before I got the shot. I needed it in order to be able to visit my then-fiance and, later, my wife. I needed it to get her immigration process going. I prayed about it, and my feeling was that God was fine with it, even though it was prepared using an abortion product. I’m sitting on a chair made in China, where forced abortions are normal, and I may also own products made through slave labor. I have an Ipod. I can’t really avoid products made by evil means.

My wife got mRNA shots. That concerns me, but I left the decision to her, and she hears from the Holy Spirit, so I saw no reason to forbid it. I don’t think the J&J adenovirus shot was available in her country.

Now we are faced with the necessity of waiting to see what the ill effects, if any, are. Nothing we can do. We can shun additional mRNA shots until we get better information, but that’s about it.

I don’t want another shot. I think I’ve had covid at least once, and it was no big deal. I want to take the blood test that will tell a vaccinated person whether he has been infected. I would feel better, knowing I had already stomped covid at least once.

What does it mean if vaccinated people have inferior DNA-repair capabilities? More cancer, I guess. Isn’t that the big hazard when your DNA is cut? Radiation causes cancer by severing DNA strands. Will the spike protein do the same thing?

Will vaccinated people start having mutant babies? Most mutations aren’t good. It’s not like the X-Men. You don’t get the ability to move metal with your mind or transport yourself through solid objects. You’re more likely to be born without legs or something like that.

My wife is young (yay, sorry), so if bad things can happen to her, they would have plenty of time to manifest, unless the rapture comes first. Maybe that’s God’s plan. Maybe the shots are very bad, but they can’t affect people who are close to God, because they’ll be gone before the problems show up.
