While the specific details in the recovered documents remain unknown, the nearly 400-page report provided an extensive enough summary of the materials to confirm an overlap in the timing and topics of Joe Biden's vice presidency and Hunter Biden's "Business" enterprises.
Many of the top-secret and classified documents concerned Ukraine during the time frame when Hunter Biden acted as an intermediary between Burisma's owner, Mykola Zlochevsky, and the vice president.
The following month, Hunter Biden sent Archer an email dated April 13, 2014 - one week before Joe Biden would travel to Ukraine and meet then-Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk.
On Dec. 2, 2015, the lobbying firm Blue Star Group, which Hunter Biden had arranged to work with Burisma, wrote to Burisma that it had "Participated in a conference call today with senior Obama Administration officials ahead of U.S. Vice President Joe Biden's trip to Ukraine next week." The memorandum provided a summary of the conference call, telling Burisma that "Michael Carpenter, Vice President Biden's Special Advisor for Europe and Russia, and Dr. Colin Kahl, the Vice President's National Security Advisor, presented the agenda for the trip and answered questions about current U.S. policy toward Ukraine."
Two days after receiving this memorandum, Burisma executives Zlochevsky and Vadym Pozharskyi, on Dec. 4, 2015, pushed Hunter Biden to call his father.
The key here is not whether Joe Biden retained the documents to further Hunter Biden's selling of access, but whether he shared details he had learned from his position as vice president with Hunter.
Given the thousands of emails VP Biden exchanged using pseudonyms, the fact that he had no problem sharing classified information with his ghost writer, and that he has lied repeatedly about his involvement with Hunter Biden's business affairs, it isn't a stretch to believe he shared confidential information with his son to advance Hunter's pay-to-play scheme.
