Last week the New York Post published an explosive expose on alleged email exchanges between Hunter Biden and shady foreign business officials in Ukraine and China.
According to the Post, Hunter Biden dropped off his computer for repair at a Delaware computer shop in April 2019. In December, when Hunter never came to retrieve the computer and realizing there was possible criminal information on the hard drive, the shop owner alerted the FBI who took possession of the computer. However, before turning it over to the FBI, he made a copy of the hard drive, which he recently gave to Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani. Giuliani then gave the hard drive to the New York Post.
Censorship and Claims of Russian Disinformation
Incredibly, most of the mainstream media have refused to report on the emails. Without even conducting an investigation, they have dismissed the emails as meritless, explaining away their existence as Russian disinformation. Many Democratic lawmakers have also asserted that Russia orchestrated the discovery of the laptop belonging to Hunter Biden containing the incriminating emails.
Big Tech- Facebook and Twitter have also censored the story. Twitter has even locked accounts that retweeted the New York Post article. Unbelievably, a week later, the New York Post Twitter account is still locked.
Never mind that Joe Biden or anyone from the Biden campaign has not asserted that the computer does not belong to Hunter Biden or that the emails are fraudulent. Does anyone believe that the Biden campaign would not have denied the authenticity of the emails and laptop if they were Russian disinformation?
Ironically, these are the same lawmakers and organizations that advanced the then-unverified and now-debunked Steele dossier, opposition research commissioned by the Hillary Clinton campaign, which we now know was actual Russian disinformation. As well as for more than four years have promulgated and published countless unverified accusations against Trump.
One of the most well-known voices denouncing the Hunter Biden emails as Russian disinformation is Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee Adam Schiff. For years, Schiff also lied to the American people claiming that he had seen evidence that Trump colluded with Russia. It is disturbing that this pathological liar remains in his powerful position and is deemed credible and granted a platform on the same outlets censoring the revelations made by the New York Post.
Shamefully, while admitting that they had no first-hand knowledge of the emails, 50 former intelligence officials opined that they believed the emails were Russian disinformation. Many of these officials, such as former CIA Director John Brennan and former DNI Director James Clapper, also pushed the Russian Trump collusion narrative, which we now know was baseless.
Proving that those running interference for Biden’s campaign were wrong, and showing once again that the mainstream media are not neutral arbiters of the news, but rather are political activists working in lockstep with the Democratic Party, it was confirmed yesterday that the laptop does indeed belong to Hunter Biden, and is not the product of Russian disinformation.
The Director of National Intelligence, John Ratcliffe, and officials at the Federal Bureau of Investigation and Department of Justice have all declared the computer belonged to Hunter Biden.
Emails
For years Biden has claimed that he was unaware of his son’s overseas business dealings. The emails prove otherwise. A never-before-revealed meeting arranged by Hunter Biden, between then-Vice President Biden and Vadym Pozharskyi, the No. 3 executive at Ukrainian energy company- Burisma Holdings, is disclosed in a message to Hunter in April 2015, thanking him for arranging the meeting:
“Dear Hunter, thank you for inviting to DC and giving me the opportunity to meet your father and spent [sic] some time together. It’s realty [sic] an honor and pleasure.”
A year prior, while his father led the Obama administration’s Ukraine policy, Hunter, although having no experience in the energy sector, was given a seat on Burisma’s board with a reported salary of $83,000 a month.
Biden has countered that this meeting does not appear on his official White House visitor log. This technicality does not discount that the meeting occurred. However, it does indicate that if the meeting took place, Biden knew it was shady, and therefore left it off his official calendar.
Interestingly, less than eight months after the alleged meeting with Pozharskyi, then-Vice President Biden threatened to withhold $1 billion US loan guarantees if Ukrainian prosecutor Viktor Shokin, who at the time was investigating Burisma for corruption, was not fired. Biden has insisted that it was Shokin who was corrupt. However, if Biden was only concerned about Ukrainian corruption it is perplexing why he had no problem with Shokin’s replacement Yuriy Lutsenko, who was in jail from 2010-2013 for embezzlement and abuse of power.
One of the more incriminating email chains disclosed by the Post is a May 2017 thread that included a discussion of “remuneration packages” for six people in a business deal with a now-defunct Chinese energy firm- CEFC China Energy.
The email outlines financial payments including “20” for “H” and “10 held by H for the big guy?” Fox News has confirmed the authenticity of this email with one of the recipients, Hunter’s business partner, and Navy veteran Tony Bobulinski. Bobulinski has also verified that “H” was short for “Hunter”, and “the reference to ‘the big guy’ in the much publicized May 13, 2017 email is in fact a reference to Joe Biden”.
Bobulinski also said that Biden’s claim that he did not discuss his son Hunter’s business dealings is a lie, stating that Hunter “frequently referenced asking him for his sign off or advice on various potential deals.”
Bobulinski added:
I’ve seen Vice President Biden saying he never talked to Hunter about his business. Ive seen firsthand that that’s not true, because it wasn’t just Hunter’s business, they said they were putting the been family name and its legacy on the line.”
Bobulinksi went on to say:
The Biden family aggressively leveraged the Biden family name to make millions of dollars from foreign entities even though some were from communist controlled China.”
Another email thread sent in August 2017, involved a deal Hunter struck with the then-CEO, Ye Jianming of CEFC for half ownership of a holding company that was expected to provide more than $10 million annually to Hunter.
Bottom Line
Biden lied when he claimed that he was unaware of his son’s unscrupulous foreign business dealings. It is also clear that Hunter used his father’s power and influence to enrich himself.
Questions remain: Do China or other foreign nations, which the Biden’s have shady business entanglements with, have compromising material on the Biden family which may endanger national security? Do the Biden family’s business dealings with China make it impossible for a President Biden to effectively deal with China, the United States’ greatest geopolitical foe in the world? And did Biden profit from his son’s influence-peddling?
It is interesting that according to Joe and Jill Biden’s tax returns in 2016 they had a combined income of $396,356. However, from 2017-2019 their income went up substantially to $16,669,979.
Whether these emails have uncovered criminal behavior is an open question. But undoubtedly, Joe Biden is a creature of the so-called swamp, who has allowed his family to leverage his position of power for financial enrichment.
It is the media’s job to investigate and alert the public to unethical, corrupt behavior from our elected officials. Disturbingly, if the polls are right and Biden wins the presidency, there will be no check on a Biden administration.
