On March 17, Joe Biden falsely denied that members of his family received over $1 million from Hunter Biden‘s business associate — even as his son Hunter Biden confirmed it.
Republican Congressman James Comer of Kentucky disclosed the more than $1 million in payments last week. Comer got them through a subpoena of Hunter Biden’s business associate Rob Walker’s bank records. Comer, the chairman of the House Oversight Committee, revealed that “from 2015 through 2017, Biden family members and their companies received over $1.3 million in payments” from accounts tied to Walker.
Comer found that more than $1 million was sent in a series of payments to Hunter Biden, Joe Biden’s brother James, and Hallie Biden, the widow of Joe Biden’s deceased son Beau. (Hunter had a sexual relationship with Hallie in 2017 following his brother’s death, not long after Walker received a $3 million wire from a Chinese company).
On Friday, a reporter asked President Biden at the White House if he had “any reaction to House GOP’s new memo about your family dealings.” The President replied, “My family dealings?” The reporter responded, “Yes, revealing that Hunter Biden’s business associate sent over a million dollars to three of your family members?”
“That’s not true,” replied Joe Biden.
But it was true, as the Washington Examiner reports:
Hunter Biden’s legal team had seemingly confirmed, and defended, the payments in a Thursday statement.
“Hunter Biden, a private citizen with every right to pursue his own business endeavors, joined several business partners in seeking a joint venture with a privately owned, legitimate energy company in China,” a Hunter spokesman said. “As part of that joint venture, Hunter received his portion of good faith seed funds, which he shared with his uncle James Biden and Hallie Biden, with whom he was involved with at the time and sharing expenses.”
Hunter’s legal team contended Thursday that the accounts “belonged to Hunter, his uncle, and Hallie — nobody else.” The statement did not dispute the amounts that Comer had detailed.
Comer released a memo stating that two months after Joe Biden left the vice presidency, the Chinese company State Energy HK wired $3 million to Robinson Walker, an account belonging to Walker. The Republican added that “Biden family members and their companies began receiving incremental payments over a period of approximately three months” after Robinson Walker received the Chinese wire and that recipients of the money included Hallie Biden, companies associated with Hunter Biden and James Biden, and an unknown bank account identified only as “Biden.”
Comer said Hallie Biden received $10,000 from Robinson Walker on Feb. 13, 2017, before the Chinese wire payment, and $25,000 on March 20, 2017.
White House investigations spokesman Ian Sams accused Comer of “going after Beau’s widow” on Thursday but did not dispute the existence of the payments as the president had.
“The Oversight Committee is concerned about the national security implications resulting from President Biden’s family receiving millions of dollars from foreign nationals,” Comer said Thursday. “We will continue to follow the money trail and facts to determine if President Biden is compromised by his family’s business schemes and if there is a national security threat.”
Joe Biden claimed during a 2020 debate with then-President Donald Trump that Hunter Biden had not made any money from Chinese business deals, saying, “My son has not made money in terms of this thing about — what are you talking about — China.” The Biden White House stood by that claim.
Influence peddling by the Bidens is documented in photos and emails found on Hunter’s abandoned laptop. Hunter Biden’s laptop contained copious evidence that Joe Biden was complicit in his son’s influence peddling, noted the New York Post.
Biden also appears to have sold classified information to his foreign paymasters. In a New York Post column, Miranda Devine notes that “there are several clues on” on Hunter Biden’s abandoned “laptop that Hunter may have been selling classified information to his foreign paymasters.” She points to “uncharacteristically cogent email about Ukraine written by Hunter Biden in 2014,” that likely reflects his cribbing classified information.
Hunter Biden lived in Joe Biden’s Wilmington residence where classified documents were found. Hunter once claimed he paid $49,910 a month to live in that residence. On Twitter, some speculated that the huge alleged payment could have been a way for Hunter Biden to funnel money to his father.
At the Powerline blog, lawyer John Hinderaker notes that Hunter Biden “violated laws relating to the surreptitious filming and later dissemination of sexual acts. He did this with prostitutes, but also with others, like the nude photos of his sister in law, Hallie, his brother’s widow.”
As Hinderaker notes,
Hunter Biden’s daily preoccupations are (or were, until recently) crack cocaine and prostitutes. His most frequent communications were with crack dealers and pimps, lining up and paying for prostitutes. It goes on and on, day after day. Is there a drug dealer or a pimp on the East Coast, or in California, who is not on close personal terms with Hunter Biden?
The amount of money Hunter ran through was extraordinary. Where did he get it? Not through any legal and gainful employment, certainly. It is reasonable to assume that Hunter’s share of the Biden crime family’s loot went for crack and prostitutes. Follow the link for details: it went on day after day….In the course of his excesses, Hunter apparently violated laws relating to the surreptitious filming and later dissemination of sexual acts. He did this with prostitutes, but also with others, like the nude photos of his sister in law, Hallie, his brother’s widow. I can’t begin to convey the extent of Hunter’s depravity, as documented by him in photos, videos, texts and emails. If you are interested, follow the link. The sheer volume is overwhelming. Pretty much everything Hunter did was both appalling and illegal. He had a presence on porn sites, like Pornhub [where he uploaded videos of his acts such as one titled “Big Cock, Hand Job” that got 53,000 views by porn viewers]
Biden also made an employee of his “law firm” have sex with him to keep her job, which is illegal quid pro quo sexual harassment under Delaware civil rights law. He threatened to withhold her paycheck until she had sex with him. As Hinderaker observes, this “is reflected in his exchanges with a female employee to whom he paid many thousands of dollars. Her services were not primarily of a legal nature.” The New York Post confirms this in a story titled, “Hunter Biden paid assistant thousands off the books for filthy sex chats, texts show.”
As Hinderaker observes, this employee “had no apparent duties” other than servicing Hunter Biden. Her exchanges with Hunter and Hunter’s secretary illustrate this. As The Post reports, after she asked whether she had been terminated due to the fact that “she had not received her most recent paycheck and her dentist hadn’t accepted her Owasco insurance,” Hunter responded to her plea by explicitly demanding sexual favors, saying that he would pay her if she performed sexual acts, and that “the rule has to be no talk of anything but sex and we must be naked and we have to do whatever the other person asks within reason.”
As the Washington Examiner observes, there are “texts that show Biden explicitly extorting the woman for sexual services by withholding her pay.” As New York Mag notes, “the allegation of withholding pay for sex could be a big new problem for the president’s son, who is already in trouble. Last fall, federal investigators reportedly believed there was enough evidence to charge him with tax crimes and a false statement related to a gun he had bought.”
Since Biden required that she engage in sex acts, even when they were likely to cause her offense or annoyance (like withholding her paycheck until she had sex) , and in some cases surreptitiously filmed and disseminated sexual acts with her without her consent, and in a way likely to cause her offense, alarm or annoyance if she found out, he violated Delaware’s criminal sexual harassment statute (2 DE Code § 763)
As Hinderaker notes, “Hunter had a torrid affair with his brother’s widow, Hallie. Hallie, perhaps knowing Hunter too well, refused to allow him to be alone with her 13-year-old daughter because Hunter’s behavior was ‘sexually inappropriate.’ Imagine that! Hunter bitterly resented this, and complained to, among others, Joe Biden, hoping to get access to the 13-year-old.”
