A House Republican leader just produced he believes is smoking gun evidence that President Joe Biden is corrupt.
As reported by Newsmax, House Oversight and Accountability Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) on Monday released bank records showing monthly payments from an account owned and run by Hunter Biden to his father, Joe Biden.
What’s more, the payments to Joe came after Hunter’s business account, Owasco PC, got money from Chinese-state-linked companies and other foreign nationals and companies, according to financial records obtained by the Republican leader’s committee.
“Hunter Biden’s legal team and the White House’s media allies claim Hunter’s corporate entities never made payments directly to Joe Biden. We can officially add this latest talking point to the list of lies,” Comer noted in a statement.
“This wasn’t a payment from Hunter Biden’s personal account but an account for his corporation that received payments from China and other shady corners of the world,” he added.
Newsmax noted further:
Hunter Biden currently is under investigation by the Department of Justice for using the Owasco PC corporate account for tax evasion and other serious crimes.
Comer’s committee is probing alleged influence peddling by Joe Biden via his families’ foreign business dealings.
Republicans on the House panel say payments to Joe Biden from Hunter’s Owasco PC corporate account are part of a pattern revealing the president knew about, participated in, and benefited from his family’s influence-peddling schemes.
Whistleblowers have testified that the Justice Department has consistently run interference for Joe Biden, preventing investigators from asking questions about his alleged activities and obtaining documents.
“The more we learn, it appears the Justice Department was trying to cover up for the Bidens — until brave IRS whistleblowers came forward and a federal judge rejected the sweetheart plea deal,” Comer said.
“Payments from Hunter’s business entity to Joe Biden are now part of a pattern revealing Joe Biden knew about, participated in, and benefited from his family’s influence-peddling schemes.”
So far, Comer’s committee has discovered more than 20 shell companies while learning about how the Bidens and their business associates managed to take in more than $24 million between 2015 and 2019, selling “the brand” of Joe Biden.
“It was reported last week that the oversight committee had obtained an email from an investigator showing he raised concerns in 2018 about money from China that allegedly was used to fund a $40,000 check to Joe Biden,” Newsmax noted further.
“The email shows the investigator’s concerns about an initial $5 million funding from Northern International Capital Holdings — an affiliate of CEFC China Energy, which is linked to the Chinese government — and ‘subsequent erratic payments’ to Hudson West III, Hunter Biden’s joint venture with a Chinese national, and Owasco PC,” the outlet continued.
Joe Biden, meanwhile, has repeatedly denied talking to his son about any business deals.
