Remember in 2019 when Biden told Peter Doocy that he'd never discussed business with his son Hunter?
How about two weeks ago when he said it was a lie that he had communicated with his son and brother's foreign business associates?
Welp, even far-left NBC News had to report on this news today:
(Notice how they try to soften the blow there at the end.)
Joe Biden exchanged emails with his son Hunter's business associate 54 times while he was serving as vice president, and some of the messages were sent around the time the elder Biden was traveling to Ukraine and his son was working for a Ukrainian gas company, according to records released by House Republicans.
Oh, you mean that gas company being investigated by a prosecutor who was fired and then Joe Biden bragged about it?
[Warning: Language]
A White House spokesperson declined to comment but pointed to statements by House Democrats that Hunter Biden's business associate, Eric Schwerin, worked as Joe Biden's financial adviser from 2009 to 2017 and helped him file his tax returns. Schwerin did not respond to requests for comment.
Ah, it's okay then. It's not like people looking to build family criminal empires would use the same finance people. You little-brains need to understand there's nuance among royalty like the Bidens. After all, Hunter was only selling the "illusion" of access to the second (now first) most powerful man on the planet!
The records released describe the dates of the emails and who exchanged them, but do not include the messages themselves. NBC News has not reviewed the contents of the emails.
All told, then-Vice President Biden emailed Schwerin 35 times before and after his 2014 trips to Ukraine. Five emails were exchanged just prior to a trip by Vice President Biden to Ukraine on June 7, 2014, and 27 emails were sent from the end of June to a second trip to Ukraine by Biden on Nov. 21, 2014.
Here's a really important part:
The bulk of the communication occurred in the lead-up to and following an agreement for Hunter Biden to serve on the board of the Ukrainian natural gas company Burisma.
Yeah, we'd like to see these emails, GOP!
The way a backward yokel like me sees it is that Joe was VP and had this sweet cash flow that he protected by threatening to withhold money, then Trump started getting dirt on him and all of a sudden Trump gets impeached for the thing Joe did.
Hunter Biden earned nearly $1.2 million from Burisma in 2014, according to emails contained on a copy of his hard drive and obtained by NBC News. In their recent tax indictment of Biden, federal prosecutors alleged he made over $1.4 million from 2016 to 2019, when Biden's engagement with the Ukrainian firm ended.
They want you to believe that none of that money ended up back in Joe Biden's pocket. Just stop paying attention to the details and remember that Trump is the bad guy!
Former President Donald Trump has falsely claimed that Joe Biden helped oust a Ukrainian prosecutor, Victor Shokin, when he was "prosecuting" Burisma. Multiple U.S. officials testified to Congress that Shokin was forced out in a joint American and British effort because he himself was corrupt.
Ah, because as vice president of the United States, Joe wouldn't have had the authority to put his thumb on the scales of "a joint American and British effort" to get rid of the one guy who might be able to uncover his family crime empire. And I'm certain Obama wouldn't have hidden it to protect his "scandal-free" administration. Powerful people never collude to hide their sins!
But that's NBC News for ya. There's "no" evidence, you see. Joe Biden's fingers are in all the pies but also he's completely innocent! When you see the lavish life he lives as a multi-millionaire who earned his fortune by being a politician for 50 years, don't think any of that blood and treasure was earned corruptly.
Pure as the driven snow, that Joe is! PURE AS THE DRIVEN SNOW!
