There’s a reason high-profile independent journalist Tim Poole calls Democrat voters in the US “low information”. Democrats almost exclusively rely on media like CNN and MSNBC, both of which knowingly peddled the “Russiagate” lie. Worse, even more of them rely on social media like “Occupy Democrats”, the single biggest social source for left-leaning Americans — which even left-biased media analysts unequivocally rate as “fake news”.
This is why Democrat voters continue to believe the “Russiagate” conspiracy, years after it was comprehensively exposed as a confected lie. It’s also why they’re almost completely unaware of the Hunter Biden laptop story. Big tech and the legacy media actively collaborated to bury the story ahead of the 2020 election, even though surveys show that, had they been aware of it, enough Democrats would have switched their votes to completely flip the election.
But they didn’t know — and they still don’t. Media website Ground News specialises in measuring left/right “blindspots”: which stories are being ignored by which side of politics.
The ongoing developments into the investigations — including criminal — into the Biden laptop have 0% awareness on the left, according to Ground News.
First son Hunter Biden’s “flirty” former secretary JiaQi “Jackie” Bao, who pushed for “Uncle Joe” Biden to run for president and has been linked to the Chinese government, is the focus of a new House Republican inquiry into the first family’s extensive overseas business dealings.
Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.), the top Republican on the House Oversight Committee, demanded information Wednesday from FBI Director Christopher Wray on the Biden family’s links to Bao while Hunter and his uncle James Biden raked in $4.8 million from Chinese government-linked CEFC China Energy in 2017 and 2018.
CEFC, like all Chinese companies, is necessarily linked to the Chinese Communist Party, but its links went even deeper than most.
CEFC was regarded as an arm of Beijing’s “Belt and Road” foreign influence initiative.
So did its links to the Biden White House.
“Documents obtained by Committee Republicans reveal that Bao was also working for CEFC employees linked to the CCP. Regarding a potential US liquified natural gas (LNG) purchase Bao and the Bidens sought to sell to China, Bao told Hunter Biden, Jim Biden and CEFC associates in an email that ‘my job is to make sure our interest is protected’” […]
A May 2017 email regarding the Biden family’s CEFC partnership described the “big guy” as being due a 10% cut. Two former Hunter Biden associates, Tony Bobulinski and James Gilliar, identified Joe Biden as the “big guy” and Bobulinski says he met with Joe Biden in the same month about the deal.
Hunter Biden, in documents obtained by the committee, refers to CEFC vice-chairman Patrick Ho as the “f–king spy chief of China”.
With good reason.
“In early 2018, the Biden-CEFC venture was cut short when the Bidens’ Chinese partners were arrested for attempting to bribe foreign leaders and other economic crimes. Nonetheless, Bao seemed determined to remain close to the Biden political orbit even after the initial relationship dissolved, a hallmark of foreign intelligence activity,” Comer’s letter continued […]
“Bao’s efforts to remain close to the Biden family following the CEFC venture collapse raises serious concerns about Bao’s motives and plans with the Biden family.”

Of course, it wasn’t just China where the Biden family was cutting deals with corrupt regime officials.
President Biden “may have been involved” in “potential criminal conduct” committed by first son Hunter Biden and first brother James Biden, Sen. Chuck Grassley charged in a letter to top law enforcement officials last week, citing FBI documents with “specific details” […]
“The FBI has within its possession a series of documents relating to information on Mykola Zlochevsky, the owner of Burisma, and his business and financial associations with Hunter Biden. The documents in the FBI’s possession include specific details with respect to conversations by non-government individuals relevant to potential criminal conduct by Hunter Biden,” Grassley writes in the letter. “These documents also indicate that Joe Biden was aware of Hunter Biden’s business arrangements and may have been involved in some of them.”
Remember, this was when Ukraine was still “the most corrupt country in Europe”, not the plucky little war hero nation of the current media narrative.
Mykola Zlochevsky, the founder of Burisma Holdings and the former Ukrainian minister of natural resources, has a long list of corruption accusations against him.
British authorities seized $23 million from Zlochevsky in 2014, alleging that it had been corruptly misappropriated, according to POLITICO, before a judge ruled the following year that Zlochevsky could get his money back because he was not under investigation by Ukrainian prosecutors.
Former US Ambassador to Ukraine Geoffrey Pyatt accused Burisma Holdings of corruption and slammed the Ukrainian prosecutor’s office for helping Zlochevsky get his millions back by writing a letter to the British judge.

This puts into some perspective Biden’s on-camera boast about using foreign aid money to strong-arm the Ukraine government into sacking its prosecutor-general, Viktor Shokin.
But don’t ask a Democrat voter about any of this: they won’t know, and won’t want to know.
