Desperate Dems: Bloomberg Raised $16 Million So Felons Could Vote In Florida
It looks like New York Billionaire Mike Bloomberg is worried Democrats won’t have enough votes in Florida to win the state. Because of this, he raised raised roughly $16 million in to grant voting rights to more than 30,000 convicted felons for the 2020 presidential election.
The Democrats are desperate. God only knows what else they are planning to do.
So the Florida Rights Restoration Coalition received the Bloomberg money to pay off the obligations of 32,000 felons. Most of Americans, I assume, including me, didn’t either remember or realize this was even possible.
In Florida it is because in 2018 the law was enacted. It allows felons that paid back what they owed in restitution to vote.
“The right to vote is fundamental to our democracy and no American should be denied that right,” a Bloomberg spokesperson told The Hill news outlet. “Working together with the Florida Rights Restoration Coalition, we are determined to end disenfranchisement and the discrimination that has always driven it.”
The felons are reinstated only if they pay all fines, fees and restitution. Sometimes those fines are more than $1,000, which is owed to the government.
According to The Hill, Florida’s 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals last week ruled to uphold the law.
“Last week, several television networks also pledged to donate money to the cause. Bloomberg, who ran in the Democratic primary for president, has endorsed the party’s nominee, Joe Biden, and has donated at least $100 million to the former vice president’s campaign to defeat President Trump.“
In a significant development, Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden, was indicted on Thursday on federal gun charges as part of Special Counsel David Weiss’ ongoing investigation. The indictment alleges that Hunter Biden made false statements during the purchase of a firearm, among other charges.
The charges against Hunter Biden include:
• Making a false statement in the purchase of a firearm
• Making a false statement related to information required to be kept by a federal firearms licensed dealer
•Possession of a firearm by a person who is an unlawful user of or addicted to a controlled substance
According to the indictment, the alleged incident occurred on or about October 12, 2018, in the District of Delaware. Hunter Biden is accused of knowingly making a false and fictitious written statement during the acquisition of a Colt Cobra 38SPL Revolver. According to reports from Fox News, the statement, submitted on Form 4473, falsely certified that he was not an unlawful user of, and addicted to, any stimulant, narcotic drug, or controlled substance.
Furthermore, the indictment further states that between October 12, 2018, and October 23, 2018, in the District of Delaware, Hunter Biden knowingly possessed the same firearm despite being an unlawful user of and addicted to controlled substances. This marks the first set of charges brought by Special Counsel David Weiss against Hunter Biden since being granted special counsel status.
The investigation came to public attention when it was reported by Fox News in 2021 that police had responded to an incident in 2018 involving a gun owned by Hunter Biden.
Reports state that, Hallie Biden, the widow of President Biden’s late son, Beau, who was in a relationship with Hunter at the time, discarded the gun. Hunter’s gun was thrown away in a dumpster near a market, located close to a school. It was subsequently revealed that Hunter Biden had purchased a gun earlier that same month.
Hunter Biden’s legal troubles do not end with the gun charges. Earlier in July, an original plea agreement collapsed, which would have seen him plead guilty to two misdemeanor tax counts for willful failure to pay federal income tax, thus avoiding jail time on a felony gun charge. Instead, he pleaded not guilty to two misdemeanor tax charges and one felony gun charge.
Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed David Weiss as special counsel to oversee the Hunter Biden investigation and related matters. The White House has declined to comment on these developments, which continue to draw significant public and media attention.
