by R. Cort Kirkwood, The New American:

In testimony before the two House committees that are conducting an impeachment inquiry about President Joe Biden, son Hunter Biden confessed to long-standing business deals inside China, including a deal with CEFC, an energy business controlled by the Chinese Communist Party.

He also admitted that he introduced his father to his Chinese and other business contacts and that he placed his father on dozens of phone calls with them.

But Hunter insisted Republicans are “lying” about his father’s involvement in his businesses. He repeatedly stated that his father is pure as Caesar’s wife. Biden senior knows nothing about and was not involved in Hunter’s amazingly successful planetary business empire.

Opening Statement

Hunter’s testimony opened with a claim to present “the one uncontestable fact that should end the false premise of this inquiry: I did not involve my father in my business, not while I was a practicing lawyer, not in my investments or transactions, domestic or international, not as a board member, and not as an artist, never.”

That last claim has already been proven false.

He continued, calling the impeachment inquiry a “conspiracy theory”:

For more than a year, your committees have hunted me in your partisan political pursuit of my dad. You have trafficked in innuendo, distortion, and sensationalism, all the while ignoring the clear and convincing evidence staring you in the face: You do not have evidence to support the baseless and MAGA-motivated conspiracies about my father because there isn’t any.

Hunter called testimony from other witnesses “lies.”

Noting that Biden senior “helped save my life,” he claimed that “Republicans have taken my communications out of context, relied on documents that have been altered, and cherry-picked snippets of financial or other records to misrepresent what really happened.”

And then he warned the Republicans of the Oversight and Judiciary committees not to continue the smears while he — “the smartest guy” Joe Biden knows — is in the room:

If you try to do that today, my answers will reveal your tactics and demonstrate the truth that my father was never involved in any of my businesses. My testimony today should put an end to this baseless and destructive political charade. You have wasted valuable time and resources attacking me and my family for your own political gain when you should be fixing the real problems in this country that desperately need your attention.

Joe Biden Met Hunter China Contact

Importantly, Hunter confirmed key allegations in the impeachment case against his father. Notably, he testified, he introduced his father to Jonathan Li, chairman of BHR Partners. The Red Chinese government’s Bank of China controls BHR.

“When we returned from an event to the hotel, there was a rope line, and Jonathan Li was in the lobby of the hotel where I was going to meet him for coffee,” Biden testified:

In that line I introduced my dad to Jonathan Li and a friend of his, and they shook hands and I believe probably took a photograph. And then my father went up to his room, and I went to have coffee with Jonathan Li.

And at the time he introduced his father, he admitted, he was working with Li on creating a private equity fund. But, amazingly, “I did not have any notion of the exact source of funds” that would create the entity.

Still, Hunter insisted Joe Biden knew nothing. “I could say for the record, and I will probably say this 1,000 times, my father had absolutely no knowledge of, no involvement in, had no — any way was — awareness of my business relationship with Jonathan Li. And I could also say this, is that I did not have an equity stake in BHR until my father left office in 2017.”

He also admitted that his father wrote college recommendations for Li’s children, which means the two Bidens could have helped infiltrate Chinese spies into the United States.

Hunter also confessed his work with the CEFC, which began “when I received a retainer from CEFC in early — or spring of 2017.” He claimed his activities with the communist party-controlled operation was “completely legitimate and completely, 100 percent in line with my experience and my abilities, was done when my father wasn’t even in office.”
