Obama official claims to have the goods on Biden

Despite slogging along through months of the legacy media studiously ignoring the ongoing allegations of corruption inside Biden Inc., the word seems to be getting around. More people are emerging from the shadows with stories of their own that they’ve kept quiet about for years or even decades. The latest is a man named Mike McCormick. If you’ve never heard of Mr. McCormick before, that’s to be expected. He wasn’t a public official who tended to show up in the headlines. He served as a stenographer in the White House for fifteen years spanning multiple administrations, including that of Barack Obama and his then Vice President Joe Biden. And he has a story to tell involving Ukraine, Burisma, and not just Joe Biden, but National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan as well. (Conservative Brief)

The Biden family is getting hit by an unlikely source as a former official in the Obama administration has come forward to allege that then-Vice President Joe Biden was involved in a “kickback scheme” with his son Hunter Biden’s overseas business dealings.

Mike McCormick, who served as a stenographer for 15 years in the White House said that the FBI has been ignoring him even though he is willing to testify under oath before the federal grand jury investigating Biden’s son.

“In February, I went to the FBI and filed one of their tips on their website. If you do that, and you’re lying to them, you go to jail. I’m not lying. I’m telling the truth, and I’m not going to jail,” he said. “Joe Biden is a criminal. He was conducting malfeasance in office to enrich his family. Jake Sullivan is a conspirator in that, and there’s more… Obama officials involved in it, I believe.”

McCormick asserts that, like many others, he delivered a tip to the FBI about these affairs and offered to come in to provide testimony, but he was ignored. His position is an interesting one, being privy to many of the secrets of presidential administrations. Transcriptionists, similar to translators, tend to fade into the background to the point where officials barely notice them. But they are always there, recording what takes place and witnessing sensitive conversations. They are relied on for their discretion as much as anything else, but apparently, Mr. McCormick has heard enough and won’t hold his tongue any longer.

With all of that said, the details he has provided thus far don’t seem to contain any shocking new details. Aside from the presence of Jake Sullivan in a conversation where he had previously remained unidentified, this story is really just another confirmation of what was already alleged or suspected. Shortly after Hunter Biden was placed on the Board of Directors at Burisma, Joe was winging his way to Ukraine to provide $50 million in taxpayer cash to Ukraine’s energy market for oil and gas drilling. How many more “coincidences” do we need to hear about this?

McCormick accuses Jake Sullivan of being “a conspirator” in the Biden family’s schemes, but he doesn’t seem to say specifically how he was involved. Is he insinuating that Sullivan himself was cashing in on the Burisma money? Or was he simply aware of it and facilitating Biden’s travel plans and meetings? That would be an important distinction.

While it’s more of a side note to the story, it’s interesting how the entire fracking conversation was involved. This is the same Biden that would be out on the trail a few years later promising to shut down fracking and “end fossil fuels.” But in his waning days as Vice President, he was all in favor of pushing all the fracking that Ukraine wanted to engage in, presumably as long as Hunter’s paychecks kept rolling in. (With either “half” of his salary or “ten percent” for the “Big Guy.”) Where was his concern over carbon neutrality during all of this?

I’m sure the Oversight Committee will be more than happy to have Mike McCormick come in for a chat and testify as to what he saw and heard during his time with Joe Biden. Think of him as just one more brick in the wall. How many more stories like this will the alphabet media networks be able to continue to ignore?
