Gallery selling Hunter Biden's paintings saw federal COVID-19 loan increased from $150k to $500k
  • [Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] Public records show the Georges Bergès Gallery in Soho, New York City, was granted a $150,000 COVID-19 disaster assistance loan last year

  • In July 2021 - six months after Joe Biden took office - this figure was then revised, awarding the company another $350,000 and $500,000 in total

  • Just over two months later, the gallery hosted a pop-up show at the famous Milk studios in Hollywood to sell the president's son's paintings

  • The Soho gallery is also set to hold a New York City show of his work this spring

  • In total, the gallery received around $580,000 in COVID-19 relief payments - $80,000 from two PPP loans - while employing just two people

  • There is no indication Biden was involved in the loans or that Hunter profited from them - through a salary from the gallery or it marketing his paintings

  • Questions have already been raised about the ethics of Hunter's art dealings
