Remember when a president was impeached because a whistleblower came forward about a phone call? Good times.

That president, of course, was Donald Trump, and the subject was whether he committed an illegal quid pro quo with Ukraine during a phone conversation with President Volodymyr Zelensky. The truth is that Trump was impeached for what Joe Biden actually did.

To wit, Biden is on the record disclosing the fact that when he was vice president, he pressured the president of Ukraine to fire a prosecutor — who happened to be getting a little too close to Hunter Biden. The younger Biden was leveraging his vast artistic skill and deep knowledge of loose women and recreational drugs to justify a lucrative position on the board of Ukrainian gas company Burisma Holdings.

The Ukrainian prosecutor was fired, though the “fact-checkers” swear it was because the prosecutor was corrupt, not because Biden wanted to help his son.

Wink, wink.

Now, another whistleblower has come forward with information regarding the Bidens’ corrupt pay-to-play schemes, and the country in question could very well be Ukraine. We just know it’s not China, where the “Big Guy” and his boy also peddled influence for cash.

Republicans also emphasize that the alleged wrongdoing was committed by Joe Biden, not Hunter or another family member. Indeed, that’s been the point of this whole thing ever since Hunter’s “Russian disinformation” laptop made the news. The problem is not a few seedy pictures or questionable emails involving the president’s wastrel son; it’s that Joe Biden used his positions of power to cash in with influence.

No wonder he and Hunter lied about the laptop, and Democrat henchmen in Big Tech and the Leftmedia covered it up.

The House Oversight Committee began looking into Hunter’s business dealings after Republicans took over earlier this year. Last month, they discovered that Hunter’s associates made more than 80 visits to Barack Obama’s White House while Joe Biden was vice president.

During the last presidential campaign, Joe insisted, “I’ve never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings.”

On Wednesday, the House committee issued a subpoena for the FBI file highlighted by the whistleblower. The document dates back to June 2020, and it involves a “criminal scheme” involving “money for policy decisions.”

“Based on [the whistleblower’s] disclosures,” wrote Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer and Senate Budget Committee ranking member Chuck Grassley, “it has come to our attention that the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) possess an unclassified FD-1023 form that describes an alleged criminal scheme involving then-Vice President Biden and a foreign national relating to the exchange of money for policy decisions.”

We’ll watch and wait as the GOP chases down this lead, but we do already know that Biden is not even remotely the squeaky clean honest broker he pretended to be in the 2020 election. In fact, it’s downright outrageous for anyone to assert that Biden holds any kind of moral superiority over Trump.

Biden is a serial liar and a corrupt influence peddler.

He’s also not a good family man. Joe and Jill Biden disgracefully refuse to acknowledge their seventh grandchild. That would be Hunter’s daughter Navy Joan, born to Lunden Roberts, an Arkansa stripper impregnated by Hunter when he was between other bizarre relationships, including with his deceased brother’s wife. Hunter appeared in court this week to plead for reduced child support given his changing financial circumstances.

Meanwhile, Joe the Deadbeat Granddad yet again counted only six grandchildren in remarks about his family last week. “I have six grandchildren, and I’m crazy about them,” Biden said. “And I speak to them every single day. Not a joke.” He added, “They’re crazy about me because I pay so much attention to them.”

It’s definitely not a joke that he doesn’t even speak about his seventh grandchild, who is probably not crazy about him because he pays her no attention.

The irony is that the sordid details of Hunter’s illegitimate daughter are newsworthy precisely because he has done everything possible to avoid claiming paternity or responsibility, or even so much as meeting Navy Joan. Joe and Jill pretend the whole thing never happened, rather than having compassion on an unwanted child with all the millions of dollars they raked in from exploiting Joe’s own child.

The story wouldn’t be noteworthy if any of the Bidens had simply done the right thing.

It’s also worth noting that Hunter’s legal troubles include a U.S. attorney’s tax-evasion probe and an inquiry into false statements on an application for a firearm purchase.

To put it mildly, the Bidens are not good people. They make up not the First Family but the Worst Family, worthy of a week of episodes on the late Jerry Springer’s sordid show. The Biden family is an American disgrace. And we can’t help but surmise that Joe’s rationale for reelection, to “finish the job,” has less to do with policy wins than with pulling the strings of power to keep his family out of prison.
