(Tony Sifert, Headline USA) President Joe Biden failed to report at least $5.2 million in income on Office of Government Ethics filings after he left office as vice president, as serious questions and allegations continue to swirl around his dealings with son Hunter Biden‘s shady business dealings.
“The president’s financial filings show that he declared almost $7 million more income on his tax returns than he did on his government transparency reports,” the Daily Mail reported. “Where did the extra cash come from?”
The Daily Mail also discovered emails that appear to show that President Biden — “Hunt’s dad” — covered hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of his son Hunter’s bills between the years 2018-2019.
“I spoke with Hunter today regarding his bills,” Hunter Biden’s assistant, Katie Dodge, wrote in an email to accountant Linda Shapero, founder of the Global DEEZ firm in Leesburg, Virginia.
“It is my understanding that Hunt’s dad will cover these bills in the short-term as Hunter transitions in his career,” Dodge continued.
Dodge’s email included an attachment which showed that Hunter Biden owed $737,130.61 in total, $28,000 of which went to “restructuring” Bohai Harvest RST, a private investment fund co-founded by Hunter’s firm, Rosemont Seneca Partners (which Wikipedia doesn’t want you to know about) and the state-owned Bank of China.
It was through Bohai Harvest that Hunter Biden facilitated the sale of the Tenke Fungurume Mine in the Democratic Republic of the Congo — one of the world’s largest cobalt deposits — to the Chinese.
“When will the corporate media start doing their job and ask President Biden these questions?” Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., told the Mail. “And when will President Biden start being honest with the public?”
The disclosure of Biden’s role in funding his son’s foreign business ventures gives the lie to the promise he made on the campaign trail in Iowa.
