Hunter Biden on Thursday admitted and then justified the Biden family’s multi-million dollar business with Chinese entities close to the Chinese Communist Party after years of denial. A spokesperson said: “Hunter Biden, a private citizen with every right to pursue his own business endeavors, joined several business partners in seeking a joint venture with a privately-owned, legitimate energy company in China. As part of that joint venture, Hunter received his portion of good faith seed funds which he shared with his uncle, James Biden, and Hallie Biden, with whom he was involved with at the time, and sharing expenses.”
Hunter’s spokesman continued, “Representative Comer takes something old and tries to make it new by wrapping it in a wild and baseless right-wing conspiracy … The accounts so dramatically listed by Representative Comer belonged to Hunter, his uncle and Hallie – nobody else.”
The statement is an attempt to push back on the findings of Representative James Comer and the House Oversight Committee.
Oversight Committee tweeted Thursday, “New Evidence Bank records we’ve obtained reveal Rob Walker, a Biden family associate, used his company to transfer money from a Chinese energy company to Hunter Biden, James Biden, Hallie Biden, and an unknown ‘Biden.’ Specifically, on March 1, 2017 – less than two months after VP Joe Biden left public office – Robinson Walker, LLC received a $3 million wire from State Energy HK Limited, a Chinese company.”

“Robinson Walker, LLC then wired $1,065,000 to a company associated with James Gilliar. James Gilliar was a business partner of Hunter Biden & was involved in foreign transactions with the Biden family. Afterwards, Biden family members & their companies began receiving incremental payments over a period of approximately three months. The total money transferred adds up to $1,065,692.”

“The Biden family members who received money from this account included: 1. James Biden 2. Hunter Biden 3. Hallie Biden, a new person of interest in the Biden Business Scheme. A fourth bank account identified as an unknown ‘Biden’ also received money. We are continuing to investigate the identity of this account holder.”
“From the bank records, it appears that the Biden family received approximately one-third of the money obtained from the China wire. Ultimately, the American people deserve transparency into the extent of the Biden family’s influence peddling. We intend to deliver legislation that will preclude family members from capitalizing on their relatives’ public office as we suspect the Biden’s to have done.”
“Accountability is coming.”
Host Laura Ingraham tweeted, “Several Biden’s involved in overseas business schemes: James Comer.”
Breitbart News senior contributor Peter Schweizer told Fox News Thursday evening, “The story has changed throughout. When we first broke this story in 2018, they denied that they were even doing business in China. Then they said well, we were doing business in china but, as you pointed out, we didn’t make any money. Then it shifted to joe biden didn’t know about those deals.”
He continued, “That’s been disproven. The fact that they keep shifting the stories, I think, should be a major concern for people in the White House, because it’s pretty clear that the people spinning the news in the White House don’t know the full story, and I think there are going to be several other shoes to drop on this.”
