House Oversight
Jim and Hunter Biden Subpoenaed
It's getting harder and harder for the Democrats to cover up for the Bidens
Democrats deny, distract and distort
Democrats vehemently decried the first House Oversight Committee’s impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden on Thursday as a "waste of time" and "illegitimate" as Congress simultaneously raced against the clock to pass a Continuing Resolution (CR) deal and prevent a looming government shutdown before Saturday’s deadline.
"Republican extremism is rearing its ugly head," House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., told reporters Thursday morning. "They are wasting time and taxpayer dollars on an illegitimate Impeachment Inquiry when we're about 48 hours away or so from an extreme MAGA, Republican government shutdown -- and this is what they're focused on, an illegitimate impeachment inquiry as opposed to doing the business of the American people."
Ever-smug, Jamie Raskin (D-MD), claimed that everyone was making fun of what he called "this Seinfeld impeachment -- an impeachment hearing about nothing, apparently, two days before the government is about to shut down."
Then it got serious.
Committee on Oversight and Accountability
The House Ways and Ways and Means Committee on Wednesday confirmed that Hunter Biden sold access to Joe Biden in 23 countries. The main points of interest are:
Romania |
On September 28, 2015, Vice President Biden welcomed Romanian President Klaus Iohannis to the White House. Within five weeks of this meeting, a Romanian businessman involved with a high-profile corruption prosecution in Romania, Gabriel Popoviciu, began depositing a Biden associate’s bank account, which ultimately made their way into Biden family accounts. Popoviciu made sixteen of the seventeen payments, totaling over $3 million, to the Biden associate account while Joe Biden was Vice President. Biden family accounts ultimately received approximately $1.038 million.

China |
CEFC: On March 1, 2017 -- less than two months after Vice President Joe Biden left public office -- State Energy HK Limited, a Chinese company, wired $3 million to a Biden associate’s account. This is the same bank account used in the above “Romania” section. After the Chinese company wired the Biden associate account the $3 million, the Biden family received approximately $1,065,692 over a three-month period in different bank accounts. Additionally, the CEFC Chairman gives Hunter Biden a diamond worth $80,000. Lastly, CEFC creates a joint venture with the Bidens in the summer of 2017. The timeline lays out the “WhatsApp” messages and subsequent wires from the Chinese to the Bidens of $100,000 and $5 million.

Bohai Harvest RST Equity Investment Fund Management Co., Ltd. (BHR): More information will be provided in our upcoming Fourth Bank Memorandum. |
Kazakhstan |
On April 22, 2014, Kenes Rakishev, a Kazakhstani oligarch used his Singaporean entity, Novatus Holdings, to wire one of Hunter Biden’s Rosemont Seneca entities $142,300. The very next day -- April 23, 2014 -- the Rosemont Seneca entity transferred the exact same amount of money to a car dealership for a car for Hunter Biden. Hunter Biden and Devon Archer would represent Burisma in Kazakhstan in May/June of 2014 as the company attempted to broker a three-way deal among Burisma, the Kazakhstan government, and a Chinese state-owned energy company. |
Ukraine |
Devon Archer joined the Burisma board of directors in spring of 2014 and was joined by Hunter Biden shortly thereafter. Hunter Biden joined the company as counsel, but after a meeting with Burisma owner Mykola Zlochevsky in Lake Como, Italy, was elevated to the board of directors in the spring of 2014. Both Biden and Archer were each paid $1 million per year for their positions on the board of directors. In December 2015, after a Burisma board of directors meeting, Zlochevsky and Hunter Biden “called D.C.” in the wake of mounting pressures the company was facing. Zlochevsky was later charged with bribing Ukrainian officials with $6 million in an attempt to delay or drop the investigation into his company.
|
Russia |
On February 14, 2014, a Russian oligarch and Russia’s richest woman, Yelena Baturina, wired a Rosemont Seneca entity $3.5 million. On March 11, 2014, the wire was split up: $750,000 was transferred to Devon Archer, and the remainder was sent to Rosemont Seneca Bohai, a company Devon Archer and Hunter Biden split equally. In spring of 2014, Yelena Baturina joined Hunter Biden and Devon Archer to share a meal with then-Vice President Biden at a restaurant in Washington, D.C. |

Media
The corporate media has been covering up Joe Biden's corruption for decades. Conservative independents broke stories over the years but were drowned out by the majors. This Burisma report was from fall 2020, when the FBI, 51 members of the intelligence community, and the media were occupied with burying the laptop story.
The hearing produced plenty of evidence of Joe Biden and family corruption. If the media had actually covered the hearing the American public might have heard more about the mounds of damning evidence now piling up by the day, including the release on Wednesday of reams of text messages and emails between Hunter Biden, his uncle James Biden, and a colorful array of foreign oligarchs, business associates, and bagmen. All told, House Republicans presented more than two dozen pieces of evidence on Thursday linking Joe Biden to his son’s overseas business dealings. This is how the media handled it.
CBS Mornings refused to preview it.
ABC’s Good Morning America agonized over the inquiry occurring “absent evidence,” of Biden wrongdoing with no “direct, concrete evidence” and “[n]o bank account, money transfer, overt act” tying Joe to his son’s life of ruin.
ABC co-host and former Clinton official George Stephanopoulos was apoplectic in a tease: “Just moments away, House Republicans holding their first impeachment inquiry into President Biden despite no evidence of impeachable offenses.”
Terry Moran took his turn to spin for the Biden regime, huffing that “the Republican drive to impeach Joe Biden will begin in earnest officially” and will be “a solemn moment, but there is a problem --for months, Republicans have been digging, looking for direct, concrete evidence to back up those allegations,” but “they haven’t found any.”
“No -- no bank account, money transfer, overt act that would show the link between Hunter Biden’s business dealings and Joe Biden’s personal accounts. Nevertheless, they’re going to move forward,” he added.
After he closed by lamenting “partisan fireworks” are “certain,” Stephanopoulos angrily replied before moving on: “No question about that, but, of course, this is unprecedented. The first time we’ve ever had an impeachment inquiry absent evidence.”
Earth to Terry and George -- there is a ton of evidence available and that has been presented -- with more to come -- but if your job is to defend Joe Biden and his corruption, it must be denied.
Hunter and Uncle Jim have been subpoenaed
House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) subpoenaed Hunter and James Biden to appear next Thursday. It is not clear whether either of them will show and is they do show, it is not clear to what extent they will cooperate.
It took Congress 315 days into its investigation to subpoena the two central characters in the Biden business; these are some of the questions they should have to answer:
1. The Bidens were paid tens of millions of dollars from various foreign entities -- what services were you paid for?
2. Have you ever paid for anything for Joe Biden? Have you ever given money to Joe Biden? If so, for what/how much?
3. Have you ever shared a bank account with Joe Biden? Did Joe Biden ever have access to your bank account?
4. How many trips have you taken on Air Force One? What were the destinations of those trips and who did you meet while on those trips?
5. Do you currently have any business deals with foreign nationals or foreign entities? Are you currently being paid by any foreign nationals or foreign entities?
6. Have you ever advised Joe Biden on policy while he is president?
7. Why were you not paid directly, as opposed to an LLC under another name?
8. Why was money from foreign business deals dispersed to various family members, including children?
9. Are there any instances where U.S. government officials were involved in your services? Who are they?
10. On how many occasions has Joe Biden met with individuals you were engaged in business with? How many of those instances were with foreign nationals?
It's a safe bet that Biden's grandkids can go to any college, anywhere in the world and reside in a suite at the local Ritz or Four Seasons. You want to find the money, look at the little one's bank accounts and trusts.
Dancing with the Devil -- is it Treason?
Previously, Joe Biden's brother, James, told FBI agents that Hunter Biden and the Biden family attempted to help a Chinese energy company purchase U.S. energy assets while believing the company's chairman was directly tied to Chinese President Xi Jinping.
James Biden told the FBI in an interview last year about efforts by Hunter Biden and himself to help CEFC China Energy buy a liquid natural gas facility on Monkey Island off the coast of Louisiana. In the interview, the FBI agents wrote in the report:
"James B noted that RHB [Robert Hunter Biden] portrayed CEFC to him as Chairman Ye was a protégé of President Xi."
In other words, the Bidens were paid millions by their Chinese energy partners, effectively operating as unregistered foreign lobbyists, in a business partnership personally approved by Chinese President Xi Jinping, which leveraged the Biden family's connections within the U.S. government to assist China in acquiring U.S. energy assets.
That is a crime!
Just a few years ago, these actions by a President and his family would have been considered treasonous.
Feds deep-six sex trafficking charges against Hunter
The Ways and Means Committee released a legal document that reveals the criminal charges that federal investigators were considering against Hunter. According got the document, feds floated sex trafficking charges against Hunter Biden. The committee obtained the document as part of its investigation into the first son.
Federal investigators compiled examples of Hunter Biden potentially violating a sex trafficking law called the Mann Act. According to emails, on October 21, 2020, IRS tax crimes prosecutor Jack Morgan forwarded a list of nine cases involving Biden and prostitutes to Lesley Wolf, a prosecutor on the Hunter Biden criminal probe. Morgan highlighted three examples of Biden paying escorts to travel from Boston and New York to Los Angeles for sex.
Wolf forwarded the list to her colleagues, but that’s where the case appears to have ended. The U.S. attorney’s office has not charged Biden with sex trafficking offenses.
IRS whistleblowers previously revealed that Hunter Biden took tax deductions for payments he made to prostitutes and a Los Angeles sex club in 2014, and according to the Washington Free Beacon, Biden paid escorts to journey from New York and Boston to Los Angeles for sex, an absolute violation of the Mann Act and they had the credit card receipts -- that's a layup for a prosecutor.
Hunter does like them young -- perhaps too young?
Wolf sent the list to her associates, but the matter mysteriously ended there. It just went away, like the years of tax charges.
They all went away. For at least two decades, it all went away. Is it time now to pay the Piper, or will it still go away?
These are powerful people, playing for their lives. If the crimes of the Biden Family are laid out for the American People to see, do you expect them to just confess?
This is just now beginning.
