Federal agents gathered evidence during the 2016 election that Hunter Biden had used access to his father on an official government trip to Beijing aboard Air Force Two to connect prospective Chinese business partners with then-Vice President Joe Biden, according to a massive cache of documents recently turned over to Congress and obtained by Just the News.

"They got to meet Dad. All very good. Talk later,” Hunter Biden wrote in a December 2013 email confirming how he connected his Chinese associates with his father in a Beijing hotel after the vice president had met with Chinese President Xi Jinping.

The younger Biden also bragged in his emails that his father was so enamored with China's communist leader that "I think they are in love with each other," the emails showed.

"They all most kissed on departure,” Hunter Biden wrote in one of the emails seized by federal agents.

Wow, a few more incidents like that and he could be "almost" as corrupt as Ivanka and her father.
Get those imaginations working!

Color me yellow and call me Asian (I'm one actually). Isn't this old news certain people pretend it never happen even back then? Then when it became irrefutable they said it is not as bad as it looks? Then also cry about Trumps old old tax filings? Good times good times.

I must be in home depo because look at all the pots and kettles.

Despite what Hunter may have hoped for, there is not indication of monetary exchange involving the President.

Biden has not hidden his visits to China. It was sanctioned.



Long before Xi Jinping became China’s president this year, Vice President Biden was put in charge of the White House’s effort to court him — spending about 20 hours in frank and often unscripted talks to try to build trust between the two superpowers.​
That relationship will be tested this week as Biden embarks on a week-long trip to China, Japan and South Korea in the wake of a string of diplomatic eruptions over the past two months. .......​
Administration officials said the strategy of getting to know Xi succeeded in breaking the ice, allowing Biden, more than any other U.S. official, to develop a personal connection with the Chinese leader. During the visits, they spent hours talking at the Naval Observatory library and traveled together to Los Angeles and Chengdu province. Xi marveled at Biden’s ease in mingling with ordinary people; Biden was impressed by Xi’s grasp of local governance issues.....​
Biden aides said the vice president will raise U.S. concerns about China’s move last weekend to declare control of an “air defense identification zone” over disputed waters and islands, which has increased military tensions with Japan.​
Even as he does so, however, Biden also intends to touch on other administration priorities, including Iran, North Korea, cybersecurity and intellectual property rights, aides said. He will sound notes of encouragement about China's recent manifesto to pursue ambitious economic reforms, aimed at establishing international market-based competition among Chinese businesses and jolting that nation's slowing economy.​
So your links show Hunter saying Joe Biden spent 7 hours with Xi? Wouldn't it take that long to discuss all those topics?

I believe people judge Biden for this because he had said many times that he had never met with Hunter's business partners.

Also, the idea that he used his authority as VP to get his son this and other foreign business.

I could see the latter, at LEAST optically, could have been problematic if we were talking about this in 2016.

Now? Hard to bring myself to care about it, if I'm honest.

That's fine. Others may see it as evidence of him being a corrupt liar though.

Well, by the time it's gone through Bannon, Fox News, Newsmax, etc. it has been exaggerated and blown up beyond recognition and "others" may think it's the truth.
Regardless, the House Committee investigating Biden was burning the midnight oil trying to find a tiny bit of truth in those allegations and had to give up---a clear sign that others need to do the same.

I mean - Biden did claim live on National Television - many times - that he had never met with Hunter's foreign business partners - so I don't know what you mean by there being no truth to the allegations.

What standards do you apply to determine what sources to trust?

Is it dementia for Joe or something else. I remember him specifically saying he has no idea the whole ordeal happened. Legally hunter did nothing wrong but I'm quite sure people don't take kindly to politicians fibbing. Lying, which politician hasn't done it before?

Why would Biden claim to have never met them?

So long as trumps documented and clear nepotism can be acknowledged by you, I'd gladly admit it's bad optics and could easily be seen as evidence (albeit still unproven) of such for Joe.

The crux of my stance is that nepotism no longer matters in America so I can just all get it glide.

Cause he probably meets hundreds of people a day by name.

Yes they were business associates of his son that doesn't guarantee anything is remembered.


I was on a business trip with my dad in my early 20s. Don't even remember a dingle face.

I dunno. What are you guys like with remembering meeting people? Some people have freaky good memory for it. I don't really.

He did not say he didn't remember - he said emphatically that he never met with them.

For many, many years, the traditional roles of the Vice President was relatively minor for foreign policy in comparison to the diplomatic roles and duties of the POTUS. However, when Joe Biden was Vice President, he appears to have had a foreign policy, diplomatic roles with China and Ukraine that really looks like to be much more assertive than what should be expected for a Vice President. Therefore, considering how deceptive it appears that Joe Biden has been concerning China and Ukraine business dealings with members of the Biden family, I smell smoke. And where there is smoke, there is almost always fire.
