Washington Examiner Chief Political Correspondent Byron York on Wednesday explained why the Hunter Biden laptop story is so important.
The evidence from a laptop computer Hunter Biden abandoned at a repair shop and was later turned over to the FBI - after copies of the drive were downloaded - has revealed that Hunter Biden's business visions were for a global empire, that he apparently tried to use his father's influence as vice president to set up deals in multiple nations, that he did set up that lucrative post with the Ukrainian gas company Burisma where he was getting $83,000 a month, and much more.
"Remember a key fact here: Joe Biden has said repeatedly that he never knew about his son's business dealings. If what Devine is reporting is correct, Biden made those claims after having financially benefited from his son's business dealings and after having been a part of some of his son's business events. Again: The Hunter Biden laptop story is not about Hunter Biden. It's about Joe Biden."
In at least one instance, Joe Biden appeared to be moving directly to protect Hunter Biden's interests.
While Joe Biden was vice president, Burisma, which was funding Hunter Biden's lifestyle at the rate of nearly a million dollars a year, was under investigation for corruption.
Evidence already suggests Joe Biden was cashing in directly on Hunter Biden's business operations, with Hunter paying for projects at Joe's house, and a claim directly from Hunter Biden that his father was getting half of his pay.
York continued, "Speaking of influence peddling, Devine also reported recently that Hunter Biden 'used the perks of the vice presidency - parties, meetings with Joe Biden and flights on Air Force Two - to pursue business deals with Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim while his father was in office.' To illustrate the story, Devine published a 2015 photo of Slim, Joe Biden, Hunter Biden, and other men with whom Hunter Biden was pursuing business, at the vice president's residence in November 2015."
