The Chinese company in which Hunter Biden held a stake invested in a Congolese mine that was the site of gross human rights abuses and at least one death.
Biden, son of Democratic presidential frontrunner Joe Biden, joined the board of Chinese investment firm BHR in 2013, while his father served as vice president. He purchased a 10 percent stake in the company in 2017 and maintained that stake even after he resigned from the board in October. Among BHR’s investments was the largest cobalt and copper mine in the Democratic Republic of Congo, the Tenke Fungurume mine, where the Congolese military in June executed a brutal crackdown on illegal mining viewed as a threat to the mine’s bottom line. Since then, the military has torched houses and cracked down on dissent in the region—actions that drew the condemnation of human rights groups. read more

You have to wonder just how much money Hunter actually collected, never mind reported, from various companies he had interests in (or worked for) and how much made it back to Daddy and the rest of the “Family”. It’s beginning to sound like he was a bagman.
FTA: He purchased a 10 percent stake in the company in 2017.
He bought 10% of a multi-billion dollar corporation? Suuuuuuure he did!
I wanna see the paperwork on THAT transaction!
I’m sure there a similarities to that 2.5 million dollar house he bought for 14K!
If Hunter’s last name was Trump the entire left would be screaming for blood. The Press would be reporting every 15 minutes on a new angle of the story. Rino’s would be leaving the party in droves.
But as his last name is Biden has dad is the front runner of the Democrats and there is nothing to see here.
HISTORY KEEPS A RECORD
Donald Trump seemed resigned to a monolithic, corporate media opposition. His rank-and-file supporters would say that he was taking on the establishment, both Democratic and Republican. “The Swamp” they called Washington D.C. Trump didn’t respond to the lobbyists. They had ways of getting money to congressmen and office holders. It was how politicians came to Washington broke and left as multimillionaires. Presidents [and Vice Presidents], if they did what they were supposed to do for lobbyists, came out especially well, with corporate jets available for their use the rest of their lives. The author, himself, sometimes involved in making those arrangements. Incidentally, the lobbyists often came from the same companies that financed the network news. It was an unbroken, insular cycle.
The presumption was that if Donald Trump played to the monopolies and gave into big companies, as other presidents usually did, they would finally let up on him. If he made their corporate CEOs ambassadors, in his retirement their companies would give plush jobs to his children and nieces and nephews, or donate to his foundation. ~ Inside Trump’s White House, 2019, Doug Wead, pg. 42-43.
Here’s the point: With every Tesla I see on the road I not only see children picking Cobalt out of the ground with their fingers I see our political upper class standing over them demanding they work faster.
hunter biden involved with a Congolese cobalt mine
hillary clinton’s brother was involved with Nigerian ‘blood diamond’ mines, then gold mining in Haiti
both examples of total oppression, and lack of liberty for their workers
these people and their corruptions are like a fungus, and it is not good for any of us

Oh! Don’t be silly! You deplorable.
We don’t have any cobalt.
