Sorry, but Hunter Biden's profiteering matters ‐ even if the rest of the press ignore it
|
[NY Post] Most of the media continue to ignore Hunter Biden like toddlers with their fingers in their ears. His laptop is "unconfirmed." "Unsubstantiated." "It doesn’t matter."
The first two are obviously false, a weak excuse to cover things up for the administration. From the beginning, the laptop was substantiated: Hunter’s former business partner Tony Bobulinski confirmed his correspondence was real. Hunter Biden
 ...son of President Joe: cashiered from the Navy, a crackhead, wheeler dealer, leg humper, horn dog, and general all around ne'er do well. We're supposed to feel sorry for him...
never denied they were his files; in fact, his memoir confirms the pictures of the drug use, prostitutes and financial documents from the laptop.
Post columnist Miranda Devine’s new book, "Laptop from Hell," details how the Chinese gave Hunter a 3-carat diamond and includes pictures from the computer of the diamond as well as a Hunter selfie showing his back tattoo of the Finger Lakes. Were these all doctored? Hunter himself confirmed in an interview with The New Yorker that he received the diamond but just waved it off as a nice gesture.
The Biden files have been confirmed and substantiated eight ways to Sunday. Reporters just don’t want to hear it.
So that leaves "It doesn’t matter." Liberal media outlets are uniquely incurious about Hunter selling the influence of his father. In the case of the Chinese deal, outlined by Devine, they say there’s "no indication" that Joe Biden ever received the "10 percent for the big guy" promised in one e-mail.
But consider these questions:
- We know from Hunter’s own correspondence that the chairman of China’s government-connected energy firm CEFC promised him $10 million a year for three years to provide "introductions." What politicians did he introduce executives to? Which of those meetings did Joe Biden help facilitate? What promises were made at those meetings?
- Hunter complains multiple times that he’s expected to be the provider for the whole Biden family and expresses frustration at the "lack of respect" he received for bringing in the cash. Not only Devine’s book but "The Bidens: Inside the First Family’s Fifty-Year Rise to Power," by Politico’s Ben Schreckinger, reveals how the president’s family used his position for profit.
- It goes even further than that. E-mails on the laptop indicate Hunter was paying Joe’s personal bills. What else was he paying for? Was he supplementing Joe Biden’s government salary? There also are indications that Hunter and Joe shared bank accounts and credit cards. In one case, Devine writes, Hunter used a credit card to pay a prostitute and instantly got a visit from an ex-Secret Service agent. How much were their funds co-mingled?
At the very least, the Chinese were paying the vice president’s son for government access. But it also now seems that the Chinese were paying Joe Biden millions through his son.
We’ve asked these questions of the administration and it ignores us, knowing that CNN, The Washington Post, The New York Times, et al. have its back and will never press things.
Joe Biden wants millions for IRS enforcement. Wonder if that includes actually finishing the investigation of his son’s money-making and registering as a foreign agent. And would it include an audit of the president’s own income and whether he was declaring money given to him by Hunter?
That is why Hunter matters. The media are out of excuses.
