Power Line's John Hinderaker notes that Democrats appear to be deciding to deep six Joe Biden for 2024 and choose Gavin Newsom. John writes:
Pretty much everyone now understands that for years, Joe Biden has been taking bribes from foreign countries and interests. Whatever influence he had in the Senate and as vice president has been peddled around the globe, often by his son Hunter. Biden’s repeated claims that he knew nothing about his son’s business dealings is absurd, given that the only business Hunter was involved in was selling Joe’s influence. (emphasis added)
In keeping with the Democrats’ determination to force Biden off the 2024 ticket, the embargo on news about his corruption is lifting.
It doesn’t look like they are trying to convince anyone anymore. They are just trying to hang on until Biden announces, early next year, that he won’t run for a second term, at which point attention will turn to his would-be successor, Gavin Newsom.
Trump and Biden ... talk about a couple of flawed candidates. Both parties can do better, and should.

Later ... Sociologist Thomas Lifson of the American Thinker chimes in with the following:
The New York Times, Washington Post and other pilot fish media that signal the news agenda to lesser outlets went with the story, including the message where Hunter Biden shook down a Chinese businessman by threatening vengeance from his father who was, he said, “in the room.”
The powers-that-be have decided that Joe’s corruption no longer can be successfully buried.
Joe’s time is up. He is no longer useful to the people who really run things. The media got the message, and soon enough Dr. Jill will, too.
