Throughout the 2020 election, the American people were treated to all manner of accusations regarding then-candidate Joe Biden’s intimate knowledge of his son Hunter’s business dealings.
With nepotism being the cardinal sin of politics, there were plenty of Americans with grave concerns about the integrity of the Biden family on account of it, but Sleepy Joe vehemently denied any wrongdoing whatsoever.
As it turns out, this suggestion getting hard to believe any longer.
President Biden met with at least 14 of Hunter Biden’s business associates while he was vice president in the Obama White House, casting further doubt on the president’s repeated claims that he had no knowledge of his son’s foreign business dealings.
“I have never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings,” Biden said in 2019.
But the president met with at least 14 of Hunter’s business associates from the U.S., Mexico, Ukraine, China and Kazakhstan over the course of his vice presidency, a Fox News Digital review found.
Worse still:
“Do you have pictures from the lunch I had in dad’s office (I think on 2/26) with Miguel Alleman [sic] Sr. And Jr. And Jeff Cooper? If so let me know and I can send someone to pick them up. Thanks. How was Kiev?” Hunter wrote in an April 2014 email to David Lienemann, Biden’s official photographer during his 8 years as vice president.
Emails, which were reviewed by Fox News Digital, from more than a year later showed that Hunter arranged a video conference with his father and Carlos Slim, a Mexican billionaire with whom Hunter was seeking to do business with at the time, on Oct. 30, 2015.
Less than a month after the video conference, Slim, Velasco and Magnani attended a meeting with Joe, Hunter, and Hunter’s business partner and family friend Jeff Cooper at the vice presidential residence at Number One Observatory Circle, Washington D.C., according to photos dated Nov. 19, 2015 and published by The Daily Mail.
The news comes just days after an alleged leak of Hunter Biden’s iCloud account that purports to show the President’s son in a number of compromising situations, some of which included prostitutes and crack cocaine.
