American Thinker: Is selling out U.S. national security OK so long as Democrats are doing it?
What a disturbing picture is emerging from the research of Peter Schweizer, who has a new one out about Democratic presidential frontrunner Joe Biden’s son Hunter and his business dealings with China.
In a New York Post op-ed, Schweizer writes:
In 2013, then-Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden flew aboard Air Force Two to China. Less than two weeks later, Hunter Biden’s firm inked a $1 billion private equity deal with a subsidiary of the Chinese government’s Bank of China. The deal was later expanded to $1.5 billion. In short, the Chinese government funded a business that it co-owned along with the son of a sitting vice president.
If it sounds shocking that a vice president would shape US-China policy as his son — who has scant experience in private equity — clinched a coveted billion-dollar deal with an arm of the Chinese government, that’s because it is.
The details get worse and worse and worse, the further you read — the Chinese, for instance, kept news of the deal away from the English-language portion of its website. The agreements signed came just ahead of then–vice president Joe Biden’s trips to China. The deals themselves were to buy into companies that were stealing U.S. secrets. The secrets they were after involved U.S. nuclear submarines. And Biden Junior didn’t know jack about nuclear things, Chinese things, or venture capital; he was there just for being the vice president’s son.
And both Joe and young Hunts insist nothing untoward was going on; the Chinese just chose to partner with Hunter based on his amazing business acumen, nothing more.
Schweizer writes that it’s actually a pattern of activity — Biden Junior did the same thing in Ukraine, and the ties between Hunter and Joe as the foreign cash rolled in for Hunter were even more obvious: more
What a stupid question. Biden is a Democrat who actually committed crimes. Why should we investigate him?
Trump, on the other hand, is working to make thing better for America. Therefore we need to go over everything he has ever done in his life to see if maybe there is a possibility that he might have done something wrong.
I figured that as bad as the stuff we knew about was horrible, we were barely scratching the surface with these treasonous criminals. And that turns out to be true.
Thank God we do have people smart and motivated enough to research and bring these things to the light, because God knows our elected officials aren’t only not protecting the country and citizens they swore an oath to protect – about 80% of them are the most egregious offenders.
And THANK GOD for President Trump!!! Otherwise, we wouldn’t have had a hope in h-ll short of another revolution/civil war.
Hope Jim Jordan takes 5 minutes to bring this up if Don Jr. has to testify at House judiciary Committee.
Because many other senators are dirty, too. Duh.
It’s not just the corruption: it’s the arrogance.
Biden thinks he can steal with impunity. Apparently, like father, like son.
Biden is no different than hilary clinton, only a tad smarter. Though running for president has exposed the scam. Dummy: you should have got out of dodge after standing by a traitor for 8 years, instead of getting your rotten son indicted.
Going out on a limb here,,, ’cause he’s dead?’
Why not,, got the whole Vince Foster thing done,
Thumbs up, Joe!
Hey Now! Please recall that President Obama’s entire administration has been pronounced ‘scandal-free’. So, no take-backsies!
“Why isn’t the Senate investigating Joe Biden’s son Hunter over China, Ukraine dealings? ”
Because it doesn’t make Trump look bad, duh!

Now, @Uncle Al! You know that’s not true. Private citizens. Engaging in private enterprise.
Oh! And love knows no bounds. Wives, boyfriends. Children, grandchildren. Fraternity brothers, campaign contributors. Those aren’t senators. FBI spys. Government officials. Well, not current government officials. Today. This hour.
And cashing the checks you earned as a private citizen, engaging in private enterprise, while you are a government official, today, this hour, is free enterprise. Capitalism, at it’s finest. The open market.
It’s all the American way. (No sarcasm in that last one. Not even a smidgen. Sad.)
Statist/globalists from either wing of the republicrat party are immune from the law. They ARE the law, bought and paid for.
It’s what Senators do. Why else would people spend millions to become one?
