Recent developments into the investigation of President Joe Biden’s connections to his son Hunter Biden’s business dealings while he was vice president include disclosures by the National Archives about 82,000 pages of messages Biden sent using pseudonyms during his eight years as vice president and House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., laying out what he believes is the “laundered” money trail of $40,000 from a Chinese energy company to Biden’s bank account.
The Southeastern Legal Foundation, located in Georgia, filed a case against the National Archives and Records Administration under the Freedom of Information Act requesting all emails from President Biden under his three pseudonyms: robinware456@gmail.com, JRBWare@gmail.com, and Robert.L.Peters@pci.gov.
Comer asked for unredacted copies of Biden’s emails written under pseudonyms, telling the New York Post, “The National Archives has identified 82,000 pages of emails where then-Vice President Joe Biden used a fake name, but the Biden White House has only cleared 14 pages in response to multiple Oversight Committee requests for documents related to then-Vice President Biden.”
Meanwhile, Comer posted a video on X explaining how “$40,000 in laundered China money ended up in Joe Biden’s bank account in the form of a personal check.”
The money trail began on Aug. 8, 2017, when Northern International Capital, a Chinese company associated with energy conglomerate CEFC, wired $5 million to Hudson West III, a joint venture established by CEFC and Hunter Biden, according to the New York Post.
That same day, $400,000 was sent from Hudson West III to Hunter Biden’s privately controlled entity, Owasco, P.C..
A week later on Aug. 14, the House Committee on Oversight reported that Hunter Biden sent $150,000 from Owasco, P.C. to President Biden’s brother and sister-in-law’s company, Lion Hall Group.
President Biden’s sister-in-law, Sarah Biden, withdrew $50,000 on Aug. 28, depositing it into her and James’ personal checking account. The next week on Sept. 3, Sarah wrote a $40,000 check to Joe Biden for “loan repayment.”
Comer said on X, “Even if this $40,000 was a loan repayment from James Biden, it still shows how Joe benefited from his family cashing in on his name, with money from China no less.”
He continued, “Without his son pedaling his name and his son threatening a CEFC associate with consequences that he said Joe Biden knew about, James wouldn’t have had the money to write the $40,000 check to his brother, Joe.”
