'Too much red flag for bank': The tale of Hunter Biden's payments to alleged Russian prostitutes

As his father was ramping up his 2020 presidential run, Hunter Biden was busy texting a woman with a Russian email address about finding a way to evade bank suspicions so they could complete a wire transfer. The text messages raise a tantalizing question: Should Americans be concerned that a presidential son was texting and exchanging wire transfers with alleged prostitutes using a Russian address?

The answer to whether or not there is criminal activity by the Biden family is yes

  • Ron Johnson and Chuck Grassley, two Republicans who have spent more time than any investigating the family's overseas business dealings, believe the answer is yes.
  • Dozens of financial transactions involving the president's son and his business deals were flagged to the Treasury Department by banks that filed Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs).
  • One former executive of a bank has filed a whistleblower complaint to the IRS and SEC suggesting there is far more to the Hunter Biden story than what is public.

What is the Justice Department trying to hide from Congress and the American people?

  • Grassley and Johnson's concerns included questions about ethical conflicts of interest with some of the law enforcement officials involved in investigating or supervising the Hunter Biden probe, which began in late 2018 and is focused on issues that include money laundering, unpaid taxes and influence peddling.
  • They demanded that Garland, Wray, and Weiss answer a half dozen questions including whether the FBI is "investigating Hunter Biden for criminal violations relating to his reported use of escorts linked to human trafficking rings" and whether the U.S. government has "defensively briefed Hunter Biden."
