Quick takeaways

Deep dives

The Media's Misrepresentation

The media is misinforming people about Joe Biden's alleged corruption by focusing on direct payments to him, while ignoring the possibility of bribery involving family members. The Biden family's business dealings, which emerged after Joe Biden became vice president, lack any discernible actual business, offering no real estate, intellectual property, or services. Instead, they appear to be collecting funds from overseas oligarchs. The media's portrayal of this as a legitimate business obscures the unusual nature of their activities.
