The Federalist
In the week prior to the presidential election, I wrote a piece that asked the question, “Where Is Hunter Biden’s Money?” It was an important question then, even more so now. Given the legacy media’s recent validation of Hunter’s laptop that discussed a slice of equity planned for the “Big Guy” in a deal that involved an entity controlled by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), we should know if any money from it (or other foreign sources) ended up in Joe Biden’s pocket, but we don’t.

“Book sales” are one of the most common means of laundering bribes in DC. That and speaker honoraria, hookers, blow, and post retirement cush corporate jobs.
Money laundering. People who want to bribe the politician front the money for the book advance. On paper it looks legit.
No, but it runs cover for their new found prosperity.
…talk about an open secret! Everybody knows (or should) that that’s how they become multi-millionaires in a few years on a $100K salary. Some people paint to hide their ill-gotten gains.
