Maryellen Noreika put in 25 years at Morris, Nichols, Arsht & Tunnell in Wilmington, Delaware, specializing in patent law. The things that bore most people to tears are where the money is, aren’t they? The medium is the message, but the tedium is where the big bucks are.
U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika better come to a full stop at every stop sign, drive EXTRA carefully, and call animal control every time a dead cat appears on her lawn.
Thank you. It started as a joke among friends to have the most outlandish coach’s name for a fantasy football league. At the time, a group of 50-something’s acting like 12 year olds.
Kabuki theatre…..everyone gets a promotion or 3 extra months billing $1200 an hour till judge gets word she’s on the short list for Federal Appeals court…..win, win, win! A little glimmer for the Flyovers that someone might be ambitious enough to be Solomon. And I see no one being a young Giuliani to go after the federal Congress/Executive/Judicial NSA/CIA/IRS/DOJ/CBS/WaPo/Fox RICO mafia.
Do remember this: If (IF!) Biden goes down, he's going to coil like a cobra and strike out and take everyone else down with him. Why do you think he was smirking when he left the courthouse yesterday? He knows where the bodies are hidden, and he can't be dismissed as a "conspiracy theorist" (Oops! Sorry, Ms Famous White House Spokeslez; that probably was your final firing defensive line).
And who in their right mind, when they legally have you dead to rights (if the DOJ weren't so corrupt, I could finish this sentence)... smiles and smirks when his plea bargain blows up and he has to enter a "not guilty" plea instead?
Finally, who is paying for all this legal rep for Hunter? Their expenses just shot through the roof faster than the coke went up Biden's little Navy nose.
Biden WILL strike out, like the coward he is. One thing I am curious about is Does Biden realize how bad he really is ?? Every single person he has is not just a liar, but a very poor one. A perfect example is Merrick Garland.
07-27-23 (4:38 pm): Quick notes on the Garland bandwagon wheels flying off its chassis: August 1; August 7; Sept 2; October 8; and October 22. Put these in your "Forward" chronological file, if you will. Fireworks!
You can/may, but I have a better idea: Judge the comments by the RESULTS ONLY. I'm a sports handicapper and almost unique in that I start with what I think will be the final score of a game being played in the future --- and then work my way backwards to the start. It is hardly idiotproof (when we take into account the method's advocate, me). but it does come in handy, for example, when one wants to "time" the NY Yankees, for instance, when they lose to terrible teams, like the Colorado Rockies (who whooped the Yankees recently).
Oh thanks, that's one breakfast I won't get back. You had to mention Federal Appeals Court! I'm going back to bed until time for Judge Judy. There'll be some justice served today, if only in reruns. Speaking of Kabuki, maybe we could create a cabinet level Secretary of Kabuki Theater. That'd be a taste of diversity nobody has mentioned. Greta Thunberg, call your daddy's office.
I was going to say something cute but couldn’t beat your prognostication and summary. If they can intimidate a SC Judge, just imagine what they can do to this pip-squeak!
Well that would be refreshing but the line that keeps bouncing around in my head is ‘She sought and received a nomination to the federal bench in 2017 from both Biden approved D-rat State senators in her state. Remind me again how clean and smooth the voting in Pennsylvania was in 20 and 22.
I got 5 (Canadian) $ that says dip-shit jr skates!
First of all, your headline for this article, “Someone Finally Said No to Hunter” is beyond profound, and pretty much sums up the basis for the totality of his off-the-rails life.
As to this case and where it goes from here, well, I cannot even imagine the pressure, phone calls, threats and the like that this judge must be getting now from a swath of people in the Biden camp! It’s gotta be huuuuge!
A point of contention the judge had with the plea agreement left out in some of the reporting on this event is one of major import and that is the part that says Hunter cannot be prosecuted IN THE FUTURE for basically ANYTHING.
That would include any potential FARA charges, which, for anyone who’s paying attention, has just a hell of a lot to do with all the revelations now coming to light about ALL his foreign deals and money-changing with nearly every corrupt government in the world, complete with the cooperation and encouragement of his father as both Vice President and now as President.
Wowza~ what a mind blowing deal that is!
She also took umbrage with Hunters lawyer playing fast and loose with her Court’s clerks, whom they deceptively tried to get the testimony of the IRS whistleblowers detached and sealed from the case. That really pissed her off.
Plus, the part of the deal whereupon they throw in the waiving of any felony gun charges in a legal maneuver that even “disallows” her ( the judge) from adjudicating it separately.
No wonder she’s pissed!
I pray she remains alive, yet also performs a random act of Justice by throwing the freaking book at him: proclaiming the ultimate “NO” to Hunter.
I wondered about the C O Jones of his lawyers, messing with the Clerks. That was either twice the normal number or none whatsoever. As Hitlery once said, "At this point, what difference does it make!"
".......under which Biden would avoid prison time on the gun charge if he remains drug-free for two years and doesn’t break any other laws.
I say:
Don't make me laugh. Hunter Biden hasn't been 'Drug Free' since he was 10 and his "Artwork' is that of someone who is either brain dead or mentally disabled. Why not put the Bidens before a military firing squad and do what no one else in this country has THE COURAGE to do.
Yep. It’s my belief that Hunter has been holed up at the WH and traveling with dad because The Big Guy is trying to keep him clean. Which explains the coke in the cubby. Hunter will be randomly tested during those two years. We probably won’t see him parading around with his red backpack for a while - he’s about to go into withdrawal and that won’t be pretty. Is there a locked padded room in the WH?
See Craig Ferguson's American On Purpose, a great memoir (2009; incredibly, since 99% of all sequels blow, his next book, Riding The Elephant, is even better. And this is from someone who dropped out of school at age 16!).
There is NO way Hunter Biden stays clean. That he brought coke into the White House tells you just how out of control he really is. I see a fatal accident in his future--kind of like what happened to Biden's first wife.
He told the judge that he has been clean since 2019. I am glad I had put my drink down because the monitor is already clean from reading Don and the comments here.
07-27-23: See today's NY Post sports section (internet or actual paper) and turn to "Cubs a Steele In St. Louis," by "Stitches." You will like it (guaranteed).
(07/27/23 4:22 pm) --- EXCELLENT! I had no idea that we could get to the column (Stitches --- "I've been Bud-Lighted!" --- is a "he") via this route. What a shame that it cannot be cut-and-pasted.
I imagine that you originally went to the NY Post --- possibly the WORST internet site on Earth, looks like the Shanf*ckistan Haji Dailly , no wonder Tucker was dumping on another Post web site (in the videos that were released intended to hurt him that helped him after he was fired). If I don't get my morning physical paper, ho boy, off to the newsstand I go at 7 am (doubles as a liquor store, 7 am, no thanks boys!).
Jason Servis (corrupt horse trainer) sentenced yesterday to four years in Fed prison. Wouldn't it be nice if Hunter lands in the same cell? If we only had some ham, we could make ham and eggs... If we only had some eggs...
“Hunter Biden’s paintings weren’t selling so he made a call to a friend and one sold faster than you can say, “Hello, Dad.” A Democratic donor purchased the Hunter di Vinci original for $1.3 million. It’s scheduled to be picked up by the Sanitation Dept. later this week. If you think you’ve missed your chance, think again. Other Hunterangelo originals include the White House first dog “Commander” biting a Secret Service agent. A portrait of the President’s seven, excuse me, six grandkids and one of Joe smiling after successfully climbing the steps to board Air Force One.”
Joe Biden, being the corrupt sleaze that he is, ordinarily at this point in time with the pressure being now heaped upon him and his political future ALL because of his son, would, if he could, cut his son loose and throw him to wolves, under the guise of a seemingly “caring father whose son had gone seriously astray”.
But he can’t. Because he is inextricably linked to his sons corrupt dealings, and cutting him loose would turn him into the Terminator of whistleblowers, bringing his father - and who knows how many others - down into the dustbin of history.
Yes, interesting—well-put: “...the Terminator of whistleblowers”!
I also agree with Tony, who said our comments have lacked F A I T H. It may not be helpful for us to automatically default to cynical assumptions every single time. It may be that that puts weight into the mental atmosphere that discourages a person in a rough spot (like this judge) from standing strong.
Altho it is hard to exactly trace the impact of a thought-atmosphere on a decision or act, common sense would say, if you were in a rough position like that, which do you think would be more helpful—a mental atmosphere that reinforces hopelessness, or a mental atmosphere that feels like a glimmer of very attractive light—a light that invites a human being to reach for the right thing, for good, for a chance to be a hero in the moral world.
Or to use a different metaphor, should we blow on the embers of cynicism or blow on the embers of the divine presence in an individual’s soul? I think we can, and should, and in many cases are, seeing many instances of ordinary people all over rising to the occasion. There’s some very natural about that. As the Bible says “Quench not the Spirit”.
Devon Archer, if he testifies truthfully next week, may kill any deal for Hunter and put more heat on the Big Guy. Then we will see if Republicans have any guts and start bringing the Big Guy to justice via impeachment.
Monday, the last day of session for the Hoise before their August break, will be the third time Devon Archer has been subpoenaed to appear. If he lives through the weekend, and this doesn’t get bumped for a fourth time, the testimony is still going to be behind closed doors. I wonder why that is? There should still be a transcribed version made available, but who knows how “edited” or “blacked out” that will turn out to be.
The pressure on team Biden right now is enormous, even with the MSM doing their damnedest to suffocate the story and all its wicked angles.
I read yesterday there still is not enough support in the House to bring the articles of impeachment. Seriously? The dems - in lockstep - used the most ridiculous evidence to hold Trump hostage for four years. But, the GOP can't get the support when the evidence is undeniable? Our biggest enemy is not the DNC (they are #2). It is the uniparty republicans.
Biden's henchmen have the goods on just about everyone, and no one in WDC wants to go back home to East Pogostick (no free Washington Redskins tickets, etc.) And besides, the Old Battle Ax will be in rare form because you dragged her back into the land of No Decent Hairdressers.
I voted no. Too many years of seeing the deep state pull their two-tiered justice system magic. This is a Biden appointed judge. She will follow orders. This was just a stunt to make the process seem authentic. They threw us a bone but will return to normal business of treasonous corruption momentarily.
This judge will, unfortunately, play the political game with Joe Biden and Merrick Garland further manipulating the case. Also, two very compromised people who'll subvert justice whenever they can. History has shown this to be the case. FJB
Whether the judge says no or not next time depends on how many and how serious the upcoming threats are. They will probably start with her finding that her cat has been killed and left on her doorstep.
With all due respect to cats (especially Dr. cat), it doesn't rise to the level of fear needed for the judge to abdicate her oath. It will be a child, grandchild, or close family member having a serious "close call".
Wasnt it a Senator's son who died in a flaming car wreck several yrs ago? or maybe a boating accident and didnt he change his vote on something right after?
Might be a good time for Comer and the GOP House to bring all of the evidence and whistle blower testimony forward NOW instead of trickling it out and dragging this horrid mess all the way to the 2024 elections, all so they can fund raise off of it. I have this feeling we are all part of the audience in a well scripted drama being played out for politics rather than justice reasons. Convince me that any of these guys actually care about the criminality implications of Joe Biden’s involvement. If Comer and Grassley and the others honestly have the evidence and witnesses locked up and ready to testify, then lets see it. If they do, no impeachment will be necessary. Biden will pull the pin and be forced out. The DOJ will be forced to prosecute him and his crime family FINALLY! Real justice will be served. This drama stinks like politics and it’s making me grouchy and cynical I guess.
I won't accept resignation. The man has been selling state secrets to China and others (along with Hillary) for many years. He and Hunter and Jim Biden must hang.
The key here is forcing the DOJ to prosecute. I am not convinced this GOP House has the will to force the DOJ at this point. Tough talk isn’t valuable if the opposition knows you don’t have the will. Frankly, might be time to replace the entire Justice Dept and start over.
BUT - if they try to take Biden out, does he try to take Obama down with him? Or have they made too many threats on Biden's other family members to crush that. It's so convoluted and messy, this political game...
My very first reaction when I heard the reports yesterday was the same as Mr. Surber's: finally, someone told hunter NO. But it means nothing if ultimately the defense and prosecution reach any deal that gives Hunter immunity to violation of FARA. And then when the feds come to pick him up for those FARA violations, they have to agree to come with a SWAT team at 5:00 am, and to tip off CNN in advance.
This two-tiered system of justice has just gone too far. (I saw someone refer the other day to the DOJ as the Department of Just Us, and that is exactly right.) And it is what is wrong with our country right now. Ever since Eric Holder told the Congress to stuff it, and then his successor, Loretta Lynch met surreptitiously with ex-president Clinton in an airplane on the tarmac of the Phoenix Airport, the DOJ has been nothing more than an errand-boy for the Democrat party. And Joe and Hunter Biden know that, and counted on it to result in a hand-slap for a felony.
Hunter is a big boy now, let him pay the consequences of his law-breaking. A few years in prison would be good for Hunter, for his father, and for the nation. The only thing more I could hope for would be for Merrick Garland to be in there with him.
Is the fix in? Will the judge succumb to outside pressure or a manufactured scandal (or much worse)? Maybe, maybe not, but the fact that folks reasonably think it's possible says it all about how the justice system is currently perceived in this country. We're in big trouble.
So congratulations to me, I am now a paid subscriber (or vax status good to go) & am free to now add my worthless two cents (wonder if that will go digital too?). Hunter is by his own right a scumbag, but the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. The one line that did jump out at me was “Clark acquiesced to the government's position that any immunity of Hunter Biden would only include tax, firearm, and drug-related conduct investigated by the government.” Immunity would ONLY include tax/firearm/drug related conduct or about 99% of the penal code. Got to love it!
Glad Judge Noreika didn’t rubber stamp the deal. She needs to watch her back, sides and front. Delacide?
Maybe Hunter will give 10% to the big gal.
Maybe a “scandal” concerning Judge Noreika from 20 years ago will be invented and submitted for a patent.
Here’s hoping the above are wrong and the tide seems to be turning, but if recent history is a guide, Hunter will skate.
U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika better come to a full stop at every stop sign, drive EXTRA carefully, and call animal control every time a dead cat appears on her lawn.
Scandal? Yeah, maybe they can get her on molesting Kevin Spacey.

Any relation, sir, to the William Slattery of yore at a bank known as "DKB"? (The B doesn't stand for Biden).
Whether the judge says no or not next time depends on how many and how serious the upcoming threats are. They will probably start with her finding that her cat has been killed and left on her doorstep.
With all due respect to cats (especially Dr. cat), it doesn't rise to the level of fear needed for the judge to abdicate her oath. It will be a child, grandchild, or close family member having a serious "close call".
Depends on whether or not she remembers anything about the Clintons circa 1998….

I won't accept resignation. The man has been selling state secrets to China and others (along with Hillary) for many years. He and Hunter and Jim Biden must hang.
Can you use one noose for three at a time? such a vision!!
The key here is forcing the DOJ to prosecute. I am not convinced this GOP House has the will to force the DOJ at this point. Tough talk isn’t valuable if the opposition knows you don’t have the will. Frankly, might be time to replace the entire Justice Dept and start over.
…or they just replace the problem, Biden, and continue their business of lawbreaking per usual.
Yep, possible. Kind of sick and sad, isn’t it.
BUT - if they try to take Biden out, does he try to take Obama down with him? Or have they made too many threats on Biden's other family members to crush that. It's so convoluted and messy, this political game...
My very first reaction when I heard the reports yesterday was the same as Mr. Surber's: finally, someone told hunter NO. But it means nothing if ultimately the defense and prosecution reach any deal that gives Hunter immunity to violation of FARA. And then when the feds come to pick him up for those FARA violations, they have to agree to come with a SWAT team at 5:00 am, and to tip off CNN in advance.
This two-tiered system of justice has just gone too far. (I saw someone refer the other day to the DOJ as the Department of Just Us, and that is exactly right.) And it is what is wrong with our country right now. Ever since Eric Holder told the Congress to stuff it, and then his successor, Loretta Lynch met surreptitiously with ex-president Clinton in an airplane on the tarmac of the Phoenix Airport, the DOJ has been nothing more than an errand-boy for the Democrat party. And Joe and Hunter Biden know that, and counted on it to result in a hand-slap for a felony.
Hunter is a big boy now, let him pay the consequences of his law-breaking. A few years in prison would be good for Hunter, for his father, and for the nation. The only thing more I could hope for would be for Merrick Garland to be in there with him.
Is the fix in? Will the judge succumb to outside pressure or a manufactured scandal (or much worse)? Maybe, maybe not, but the fact that folks reasonably think it's possible says it all about how the justice system is currently perceived in this country. We're in big trouble.
Get it over with and legally change everyone's last name to "Martinez of Mexico City."
"The Judge unexpectedly passed away apparently of natural causes before the next hearing date."
Does this poor judge have any personal security that she trusts? She's between a rock (of coke) and a hard place (a Glock).
She's from Pittsburgh. She might carry herself.
That might be her salvation.
So congratulations to me, I am now a paid subscriber (or vax status good to go) & am free to now add my worthless two cents (wonder if that will go digital too?). Hunter is by his own right a scumbag, but the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. The one line that did jump out at me was “Clark acquiesced to the government's position that any immunity of Hunter Biden would only include tax, firearm, and drug-related conduct investigated by the government.” Immunity would ONLY include tax/firearm/drug related conduct or about 99% of the penal code. Got to love it!
