As “scintilla” has become the left’s new default buzz term, I think it’s time to suggest the following:

To that end, let’s provide a few scintillas.

One of the problems regarding any investigation of the Bidens is the shambolic nature of their activities; Hunter, Uncle James, and Daddy Joe all had such intertwined finances, it’s tough to break off a cognizable piece.

But as we demonstrated here in yesterday’s podcast, there are pieces that can be bitten off and made comprehensible. One is the Chinese Connection.

It went like so: Patrick Ho — who Hunter himself once called “the f*cking spy chief of China,” and who was operating in the U.S. as an oil exec for the Chinese government — had numerous interactions with Hunter, involving millions of bucks.

From there, it goes like so:

• The Chinese wire $5 million to Hudson West, a Hunter company;

• Hudson West wires $400k to Owasco, another Hunter company;

• Owasco sends $150k to a James Biden firm;

• James Biden sends $40k to Joe Biden.

Now, as anyone who has ever put together a complex case knows, there’s a point where the evidence begins to harmonize. So note the following: $40k to Joe Biden is exactly 10% of the $400k Hunter’s Owasco company took in. Which synchronizes with Hunter’s statement that he was obliged to kick up 10% to “the big guy.”

Is there more? Of course (including the fact that the same “Owasco” company of Hunter’s was tithing $1,380 to Joe Biden monthly, without all these cutouts).

But let’s just stop there. That would seem like 40,000 scintillas, no?
