USGLC Recruited Hunter Biden… Before Burisma
In 2012—two years before joining Burisma—Hunter Biden was recruited by Liz Schrayer, head of the Gates/Soros-backed USGLC, to join their board.
USGLC usually seats only CEOs and top former officials. So why prioritize the Vice President’s son?
Timeline:
• June 2012: Hunter invited to a gala with Albright & Powell
• July 2012: Attends the event
• August 2012: Officially nominated to the board
All this before Burisma in 2014.
Looks like early access to influence while his father was VP.

I had to investigate for myself, and it's true. California Democrats watered down SB 1414 so that the first offense is less than an year in jail, AND it has to be proven that the defendant knowingly solicited a minor.
It's only subsequent offenses where this becomes a felony.

“Congress won’t stop it because they’re part of it. USAID funds IRI and NDI, where sitting members of Congress sit on the boards. These same groups shape where the money goes. It’s the Ouroboros of Interest—an endless cycle of money, influence, and silence.”

Overall, taking all the Element Materials Technology UEIs, they have profited really nicely from the federal government since Thanedar took office.

🧵 THREAD: Congressman Shri Thanedar's conflict of interest
It's been floating around that Shri Thanedar left beagles to starve in a building when his company went bankrupt in 2010. But what's not mentioned is that his successor company, Avomeen Analytical Services, appears to be receiving federal money and got a massive influx of federal spending ever since he became Congressman in 2024 and continues to accelerate in 2025.

Translation: NATO's new job is not to defend member states, but to expand its presence eastward and actively shape the internal politics of neighboring states, especially the post-Soviet bloc.

Of course we invaded Afghanistan because we thought we could install a democracy there.

When people vote in ways elites dislike, it's labeled a "democratic deficit." This article argues, without irony, that the EU's design, which deliberately distances voters from decision-makers, is what keeps "democracy safe." No, this isn't satire. They mean it.
Here's the quote:
"The EU’s notorious ‘democratic deficit’... is not merely another technical problem... it is part of the original intent of the European framers. Although they did not state this explicitly... [they] deemed a certain distance between the rulers and the ruled to be necessary in order to keep democracy safe..."

The article proposes a barrage of media coverage, NGOs, courts to stop backsliding.
Sounds a lot like exactly what is happening today.

Also from the article: "Backsliding is less about a failure of democracy to deliver than about a failure of democracy to constrain — that is, to curb the predatory political ambitions and methods of certain elected leaders."
Translation: Democracy is backsliding when courts, media, NGOs, and bureaucracies fail to stop elected populists from exercising their mandate.

This is a definition that is used almost universally across universities, media, and foreign policy officials. They have effectively re-defined democracy to mean themselves and their network of NGOs.
Trump's election and re-election means the United States is "backsliding." Doesn't matter if he was democratically elected- he is automatically an enemy of democracy because he isn't for Open Societies.

Turns out JamesHartline found out Bill Kristol's Defending Democracy Together got backing from a Soros-financed venture, Sixteen Thirty Fund.
Open Society Action Fund (the 501(c)(4) arm of George Soros) has funded Sixteen Thirty Fund to the tune of many millions, plus they are the top donor to New Ventures (the actual top donor to Sixteen Thirty Fund).
Sixteen Thirty Fund gave Defending Democracy Together 10 million dollars in 2020.

In contrast, Gallup showed that 2009 was the lowest point for Iraq in terms of percent thriving.
