Biden family scandal: Seven uncomfortable realities confronting the Democrat nominee

Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden has offered short, at times, halting defenses of his son Hunter's business deals in recent weeks after months of ignoring an increasingly clear narrative of a family member pursuing lucrative business deals in the shadows of his vice presidency.

The Biden campaign has not yet explained or confronted these seven uncomfortable realities, many which have emerged not from Russian disinformation but rather from former associates of Hunter Biden and former government subordinates of the vice president.

"The presence of Hunter Biden on the Burisma board was very awkward for all U.S. officials pushing an anticorruption agenda in Ukraine," he wrote.

Evidence suggesting Joe Biden had a secret stake in Hunter Biden's business world At least two pieces of evidence have emerged in the last two weeks that suggest Hunter Biden believed his father was getting a cut of his business.

The second piece of evidence, now authenticated by Just the News, is a proposal in May 2017 for a joint venture between a Chinese energy firm and a Hunter Biden-tied company called Sinohawk Holdings that stated that 10% of the venture's equity was being reserved for the "Big guy." Sinohawk's CEO Tony Bobulinski has confirmed the reference to the "Big guy" is Joe Biden, and that the then-former vice president was supposed to be a silent investor in the venture.

The videotaped confession Joe Biden made about strong-arming Ukraine to fire its chief prosecutor The debate over Joe Biden's decision to force the firing of Ukrainian Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin in March 2016 was at the heart of last year's impeachment inquiry.

A Democratic firm's relentless pressure on behalf of Hunter Biden's Ukraine gas firm The portrait of Joe Biden's ouster of the Ukrainian prosecutor is further complicated by a growing body of evidence that Burisma Holdings and its American lobbying shop, the Democrat firm known as Blue Star Strategies, relentlessly pressured senior Obama-Biden State Department officials in Washington and at the Kiev embassy to help end the corruption investigations plaguing the gas firm.
