Newly surfaced e-mail allegedly helps prove Bidens in biz with Beijing-linked firm while Joe was still VP
WASHINGTON — A newly surfaced document allegedly helps prove Hunter Biden was working with Chinese state-linked CEFC China Energy while his dad was vice president — as suspected by Republicans leading the impeachment inquiry into reputed corruption by the president.
President Biden has repeatedly claimed his family never got money from China — despite his own alleged direct involvement in relations with two different Chinese government-backed firms, including CEFC. ...
Hunter Biden and first brother James Biden ultimately received more than $7 million from CEFC in 2017 and 2018, according to reports from congressional Republicans.
Between 2014 and April 25, 2019, the day Joe Biden announced his candidacy for President, Biden family members received approximately $15 million from foreign entities. It was done through a complex series of transactions involving over 20 different companies. What did the Bidens do? What services did Hunter Biden and his associates provide? What was worth the receipt of $15 million?
Devon Archer, Hunter Biden’s business partner, gave us the answer. In his transcribed interview before Congress, he said they were selling “the Brand.” And “the Brand” was Joe Biden. As another one of Hunter Biden’s business partners, Jason Galanis, put it, the Bidens provided the “relationship capital”—the “political access” the brand provided “in the United States and around the world.”
The deal with the Chinese energy company, CEFC, is one example of how the Bidens’ influence peddling operation worked. For months, Hunter Biden and his associates had been working to close a deal with CEFC. However, it wasn’t until “the Brand” himself stopped by a lunch at the Four Seasons in Washington, D.C. in mid-February 2017 that the agreement was finalized. At the lunch were Hunter Biden, his business partners, and eight Chinese executives with CEFC. Joe Biden—the “big guy”—“drop[ped] by” and gave remarks to the group. Just a few weeks later, Hunter Biden and his partners received $3 million from CEFC.
Four months after the $3 million was wired to Hunter Biden, he sent a WhatsApp message to a CEFC official: “I am sitting here with my father, and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled. I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not following my direction.” Later he reiterated, “I am sitting here waiting for the call with my father.” Nine days later, another $5 million was wired to an entity jointly controlled by Hunter Biden. Later that same day, $400,000 was moved from the joint entity’s account to a personal account of Hunter Biden. A few weeks later, Joe Biden received a $40,000 check.
Speaking of bad looks, did you happen to read the transcript of Hunter Biden’s testimony to the conjoined House Committees yesterday on the matter of the Biden family’s global bribery business? It’s available at this link, all 229 pages of the hours-long session. I read over 120 pages of the dang thing in the wee hours overnight and it’s really a fabulous soap opera of First Son Hunter Biden copping a plea over his various addiction problems (boo-hoo), and repeating endlessly, against a blizzard of incriminating documentary evidence, that his “dad” had no knowledge of his business deals with Ukrainian, Chinese, Russian, Kazakh, and Romanian parties, and did not receive any money filtered through the network of Hunter’s many fake companies (multiple Rosemont Senecas and Hudson Wests) that had no other business except routing payments into Biden family bank accounts.
The DOJ arm of the Blob has worked double-overtime, of course, to keep the mighty paws of the law from mauling poor, addiction-victim Hunter, most recently last month trotting out veteran “trusted” FBI informant Alexander Smirnov, arrested as “a liar” for having purveyed info about multi-million dollar bribes to the Biden family from the Ukrainian Burisma natgas company where Hunter was a board member (at roughly a million dollars a year), supposedly to get then Veep Dad to grease the exit ramp for Ukraine Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin, who was famously investigating the company and its oligarch owner Mykola Zlochevsky.
One conclusion you can draw from all these matters is that they are not going away. Rather, they are leading to a set of gruesome showdowns not just for the ever more pathetic looking “Joe Biden,” but for his Party of Chaos heading toward a possible extinction event in November. The big question really is, will that party blow up the United States of America in the process?
Hunter Biden’s Chinese legal ‘client’ threatens to sue unless first son pays back $1 million
Hunter Biden was paid $1 million by Chinese firm CEFC to act as attorney for their employee, Dr Patrick Ho, but now Ho is threatening to sue the first son within seven days unless he gets the money back — because he claims Hunter did no legal work for him.
Ho sent a legal letter to Hunter last week requesting that their attorney-client agreement be terminated immediately and threatening legal action unless he receives a detailed list of services provided by Hunter and reimbursement for the unused funds, as laid out in the 2017 contract.
Ho’s letter, sent by Hong Kong law firm Huen & Partners to Hunter’s attorney Abbe Lowell in Washington, DC, set a deadline of seven days for the repayment of any remaining funds.
“Patrick says he paid him, and that Hunter never did anything for him,” a friend of Ho’s told The Post, “and that according to the contract the money should be reimbursed.”
The $1 million legal retainer was wired from CEFC in China to CEFC’s Hong Kong HSBC account, and then, on November 2, 2017, to the American bank account of Hudson West III (HWIII) the firm Hunter co-owned with CEFC, and then to Hunter’s private firm, Owasco, according to his California tax indictment.
Hunter Biden’s Chinese legal ‘client’ threatens to sue unless first son pays back $1 million
The New York Post, maybe the only large paper not controlled by a U.S. intelligence agency, was the only outlet to report the story, headlined “CIA blocked feds from interviewing Hunter Biden’s ‘sugar brother’ Kevin Morris during five-year tax probe.”
According to the Post, the whistleblower told Oversight chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) and Judiciary chairman Jim Jordan (R-Oh.) that in August 2021, two DOJ officials on the Hunter Biden tax investigation were ‘summoned’ to CIA headquarters in Langley, Va. — and were told Mr. Morris “could not be a witness” for the investigation.
Comer’s letter added that the whistleblower’s story “seems to corroborate our concerns about DOJ’s deviations from standard process to provide Hunter Biden with preferential treatment.”
Deviations. You don’t say. ...
Like Epstein, Morris also runs a money laundry. That we know of, Morris has given Hunter a ton of money. On January 18th, Morris testified at the House Oversight Committee. He admitted that, since he first met Hunter in 2019 at a Hollywood political fundraiser, he has “loaned” the 54-year-old first son at least $5 million (and maybe more, he can’t remember). Morris testified he’s also paid Hunter $875,000 for some kindergarten-style ‘artwork.’
Morris also told the Committee he’s allowed the crack-addled first son to fly coast-to-coast on his private jet.
Nevermind his “strategic advisory services,” nothing about Morris’ entertainment-law background explains where he got the kind of money to “loan” millions to drug addicts, buy sham artwork for the price of a luxury house, or own and operate a private jet to fly his friends and acquaintances around — just like Jeffrey Epstein. ...
Finally, Morris admitted that Hunter has never paid any of the loans back. Morris claims they are due in 2025. Uh huh.
It has not escaped anyone’s notice that the Kevin Morris money shower effectively replaced Hunter’s now-cut-off foreign friends, taking up for Ukraine, Russia, Kazakhstan and China, who were until recently paying Hunter millions after ‘conversations’ and meetings including the Big Guy, Joe.
The natural question arises: is Kevin Morris handling Hunter Biden for the CIA? Is he Hunter’s handler? Is Morris another one of the CIA’s crooked rogues? ...
Yesterday, deep-state analyst and former state department guy Mike Benz responded to the new Oversight letter. In this clip, Benz explained that he (like me) thinks Hunter Biden was advancing a CIA project in Ukraine to steal the natural gas market from Russia’s oligarchs and deliver the billion-dollar business to NATO oligarchs like George Soros. And that is why Hunter is untouchable (6:03).
Benz, who studies, writes, and talks about the security state, is much more qualified than I am to connect those dots. I think the real Ukraine story — the one Trump got impeached for trying to expose in 2018 — that story is slowly trickling out. Drip, drip, drip. We originally thought it was just about Hunter and Joe and the rest of the Biden Crime Family getting rich off influence peddling. But the truth is looking much bigger and much more sordid than we even thought.

Half the country would interpret that as Hunter doing a noble deed.
It's the CIA that is doing criminal activity.
Yesterday, Russia’s top criminal investigative body — its version of the FBI — announced commencing a criminal investigation into “senior officials in the United States” and of NATO member countries for financing terrorism. As you can imagine, the story was completely invisible to Western corporate media, but the Daily Beast trotted out the old ‘no evidence’ canard...
The Daily Beast jumped the gun a little, since Russia’s announcement didn’t specifically name Hunter, just Burisma, where Hunter used to earn a cool million a year simulating a potted rhododendron.
Correct, but not my point. I am saying that Hunter now has an "out." The narrative can now be "It was not that Hunter was bribed to buy influence from his dad, it is just that Hunter was an undercover agent working for the US."
