Hunter Biden's private equity firm helped Chinese conglomerate buy American-owned cobalt mine in $3.8 billion deal: Purchase helped China company gain world's largest deposit of precious metal used to make batteries for electric vehicles

[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]

Hunter Biden's investment firm partnered with a Chinese company to buy the world's larges cobalt mine from an American company in 2016

Biden was one of three Americans who founded the BHR private equity firm with Chinese partners in 2013

The firm helped buy out a minor stakeholder in the Congo's Tenke Fungurume cobalt mine to help China Molybdenum buy it from Freeport-McMoRan

The $3.8 billion deal helped secure China's dominance over the precious metal, which is one of the key components of the batteries used for electric vehicles

Earlier this year, Biden had warned that America's electric car development could be threatened by China's control over cobalt

#3 Curiouser and curiouser. FCX is Louisiana-based. Why did they sell the mine? Even if it made sense for them to focus on their core metal, copper, why were they permitted to sell it to the Chinese?

Oh, 2016... got it. That would be when Plugs was VP and he and the Crackpipe Kid were flying around the world on Air Force Two, doing deals with state bandits, sniffing hair and snorting coke
