Hunter Biden's Millions

made it crystal clear that his son Hunter’s myriad business dealings were not a topic of conversation between father and son.

When Peter Doocy, a Fox News news hound, asked the former vice president about Hunter’s business deals, the elder Biden replied: "I have never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings."

He continued: "I know Trump deserves to be investigated. He is violating every basic norm of a president. You should be asking him why he is on the phone with a foreign leader, trying to intimidate a foreign leader. You should be looking at Trump."

Yet, a report released by Senate Republicans on Wednesday detailed the web of foreign business entanglements threaded by Hunter Biden, connecting the former vice president’s son with oligarchs and politically connected Russians, Ukrainians, Chinese, and Kazakhs, all while his father served as Barack Obama

’s point man on foreign policy.

Despite Joe Biden’s insistence he has never discussed with Hunter his business dealings, testimony from Amos Hochstein, a former Obama State Department official, states otherwise.

Hochstein, on page 17 of the 87-page report, says he addressed his "concerns" regarding Hunter’s board connection to the controversial Ukrainian gas company, Burisma Holdings, a job which netted Hunter up to $50,000 a month for "consultancy" services.

It reads: "Shortly after his conversation with Vice President Biden, Hunter Biden contacted Hochstein and asked to meet. According to Hochstein, Hunter became aware of Hochstein’s West Wing conversation with the Vice President, who had mentioned it to Hunter."

So, the report says Joe Biden was briefed on the U.S. government’s concerns with Hunter’s Burisma connection. And that he "mentioned" this topic to his son. Yet the Democratic presidential nominee insisted last year he has never spoken to his son about his overseas business dealings.
