House Republicans have built a mountain of incontrovertible evidence that Hunter Biden made millions while his father was vice president from business associates with unsavory backgrounds, including a Ukrainian energy firm deemed corrupt by the State Department, a Chinese executive convicted by DOJ of corruption, a Russian oligarch unable to get an American bank account because of red flags, a Romanian oligarch charged with bribery in his country, and two Americans convicted of securities fraud.
The two chairmen leading Joe Biden's impeachment inquiry are zeroing in on a simple question that could transform their case: With so many red flags surrounding Hunter Biden, did U.S intelligence or the FBI give then-Vice President Joe Biden or his boss, President Barack Obama, briefings about the risks of the Biden family business?
Such a warning would transform the narrative and raise troubling questions about why Joe Biden would take calls with his son's clients and join them for dinner at Cafe Milano if he had been warned.
In April, Comer and Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan sent a letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray and Director of National Intelligence Avril Hanes to find out if then-Vice President Biden had received a defense briefing about any of his son's foreign business dealings with foreign individuals.
"The Committees seek to understand if, because of Hunter Biden's foreign business dealings and his vulnerabilities, Joe Biden was given"defensive" briefings to discuss potential foreign interference either during his time as Vice President or while he was a presidential candidate," the Chairmen wrote.
Evidence obtained by Just the News from a 2016 investigation of Hunter Biden and his partners by the FBI, SEC and IRS shows the government had identified several red flags about the first son as it explored a suspicious bond deal involving an Indian tribe, in one case flagging Hunter Biden's role on the board of Burisma along with Devon Archer, his business partner at Rosemont Seneca who was at the center of the securities fraud investigation.
"Additionally, Archer, through RSB accounts and others in his household, has engaged in suspect behavior related to the purchase and attempted sale of shares of Wakpamni Indian Tribe bond, which are currently valued at $0 by the MS Fixed Income desk. Archer has previously been brought to the attention of Bank AML following a real estate transaction with Russian oligarch Elena Baturina and because of his close relationships with Hunter Biden, the son of U.S. Vice President Joe Biden and the son of current U.S. Secretary of State, John Kerry," the financial crimes official wrote colleagues.
