Joe Biden agreed to pay more than $800,000 of Hunter's debts including legal fees stemming from business with a Chinese firm



According to a recently surfaced email, President Joe Biden agreed to pay more than $800,000 of the legal bills built up by his son Hunter while he was conducting business with a Chinese firm.

The email contained an attached spreadsheet detailing debts owed by Hunter, which calls into question the validity of his father’s repeated claims about never discussing Hunter’s foreign business dealings with him.

The New York Post reported that the email was sent on January 17, 2019, by Hunter’s former personal assistant, Katie Dodge, and sent to an accountant named Linda Shapero, who founded the firm Global DEEZ in Leesburg, Virginia.

In the email, Dodge wrote, “I spoke with Hunter today regarding his bills. It is my understanding that Hunt’s dad will cover these bills in the short-term as Hunter transitions in his career.”

The email included the greeting “Hello VP team” and was cc’d to Hunter Biden and Richard Ruffner, who was a personal aide to Joe Biden during his tenure as vice president after he left office and while he ran for president.

The spreadsheet attached to the email shows Hunter Biden owing debts that include more than $130,00 in legal fees due “ASAP” to the law firm Faegre Baker Daniels, with $28,382 owed for “BHR Restructuring.”

BHR is believed to be a reference to the Chinese company Bohai Harvest RST (Shanghai) Equity Investment Fund Management, a company in which Hunter Biden held a 10% stake through a holding company called Skaneateles LLC.

BHR is primarily owned by Chinese investors. This includes the Bank of China, which is a government-controlled entity operated by the Chinese Communist Party.

Hunter Biden reportedly owed Faegre Baker Daniels another $20,909 for “Burnham Restructure,” referring to the Burnham Financial Group. Hunter’s former business partner Devon Archer, along with others, invested in this initiative as a plan to create their own financial services conglomerate.

Hunter maintained an office at the New York headquarters of an asset-management firm that was supposed to merge with Burnham as part of a deal called a “roll-up.” Hunter evidently seldom used the office, and the firm never merged with Burnham.

Hunter also owed Faegre Baker Daniels $82,239 for “Confidential Investi” for a total of $131,530.

Other debts listed in the spreadsheet include payments and insurance for a Porsche, a Ford truck, a boat, the tuition for Hunter’s daughters at the University of Pennsylvania and a private day school, and $37,000 per month to his ex-wife Kathleen Buhle.

The spreadsheet also listed a separate section titled “CREDIT CARDS” that included an outstanding balance of $157,033.

More than half of the debts listed on the spreadsheet involved various state and federal taxes, totaling more than $400,000.

Emails from Hunter Biden's laptop show that Joe Biden wrote a letter of recommendation for one of Hunter's Chinese business associates



Hunter Biden’s infamous laptop continues to make waves following recent reports from the legacy media validating the authenticity of its contents.

After obtaining emails containing correspondence between Hunter Biden and his business associates involved in a joint venture with Chinese investment firms Bohai Capital and BHR, Fox News reported that in 2017, Joe Biden wrote a college letter of recommendation for the son of one of Hunter’s business associates.

In the email, dated January 3, 2017, Jonathan Li, the CEO of BHR, said, “Gentlemen[sic], please find the attached resume of my son, Chris Li. He is applying to the following colleges for this year.”

According to the email, Li’s son was applying to Brown, Cornell, and New York University. Li also attached an “updated version” of his son’s “CV" in a subsequent email.

In a subsequent email exchange, Hunter Biden’s business associate, Jim Bulger, said, “Let’s [sic] see how we can be helpful here to Chris.”

Several weeks later, in February 2017, another business associate of Hunter’s, Erich Schwerin, said to Li: “Hunter asked me to send you a copy of the recommendation letter that he asked his father to write on behalf of Christopher for Brown University.”

“The original is being FedExed to Dr. Paxson directly at Brown," Schwerin said. “It should be there by Tuesday at the latest (given Monday is a holiday here in the US). Let us know if you have any questions.”

The recipient of the letter is the president of Brown University.

In response to Schwerin’s message, Li replied: “Hi Eric, Just see the email. It is just great! Thank you very much! And Hunter, thank you very much too. All the best to you all.”

It is reportedly “unclear” if Li’s son attended or was even admitted to Brown University.

When asked about these emails, White House deputy press secretary Andrew Bates said, “We don’t comment on the laptop.”

However, he did not deny the laptop's existence or repeat a previous claim from the White House that the laptop was “Russian disinformation.”

A spokesperson from Brown University said that “because of privacy, we do not inquire of our Registrar’s office, Admissions office or any other office when we receive media requests such as these for information about Applicants to Brown.”

Despite the apparent past involvement of President Joe Biden with his son’s international business associates, the White House continues to deny that Biden had any knowledge of his son’s business dealings.
