As the San Francisco Chronicle noted, the Chinese spy on Feinstein’s staff for 20 years even attended Chinese Consulate functions for the senator, who has her own version of Hunter Biden. As Ben Weingarten reported in the Federalist in 2018, Feinstein’s husband Richard Blum has “profited handsomely from the greatly expanded China trade she supported.”
Emails: Hunter Biden Strives for ‘Lasting and Lucrative Arrangement’ with Chinese Nationals
Hunter Biden canvassed possible business involvement with a major Chinese firm as he sought deals that would be “interesting for me and my family,” according to a new batch of emails released by the New York Post on Thursday.
The son of the Democratic presidential nominee corresponded with China’s largest private energy provider, CEFC, messages unearthed by the Post from what is alleged to be Hunter’s personal laptop show.
In one missive sent to Hunter in May 2017 titled “Expectations,” details of “remuneration packages” for six people in a business venture were discussed.
He was identified as the “chair/vice chair depending on agreement with CEFC,” an apparent reference to the now bankrupt Shanghai conglomerate China Energy Co.
Hunter’s pay was “850” and the correspondence also outlined he “has some office expectations he will elaborate.”
The email revelations come barely 24-hours after the Post published other emails that showed Joe Biden lied when he said he’s “never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings,” as Breitbart News reported.
Gas company Burisma’ adviser Vadym Pozharskyi thanked Hunter for “an opportunity to meet your father” in an email sent in 2015, according to the trove of data given to the Post by Rudy Giuliani.

In the latest cache, one email appears to outline a “provisional agreement” where 80 percent of the “equity” would be shared equally among four people whose initials related to Hunter and three other recipients.
James Gilliar sent the email from consulting firm J2cR, saying: “I am happy to raise any detail with Zang if there is shortfalls?”
Zang appears to be a reference to Zang Jian Jun who was the former executive director of CEFC.
In another 2017 email, Biden reportedly discussed a deal with Ye Jianming, a since-vanished chairman of CEFC.
He also sought to make clear his efforts should not go unrewarded, saying:
“Consulting fees is one piece of our income stream but the reason this proposal by the chairman was so much more interesting to me and my family is that we would also be partners inn [sic] the equity and profits of the JV’s [joint venture’s] investments.”

How about all the damage caused by the China virus and Islamic terror?
“As a nation, we can only truly thrive when every one of us has the opportunity to thrive. Our painful history of slavery has evolved into structural racism and bias built into and permeating throughout our democratic and economic institutions.”
That was California Gov. Gavin Newsom in a September 30 signing statement for Assembly Bill 3121 which “establishes a nine-member task force to inform Californians about slavery and explore ways the state might provide reparations.” For all its faults, California was never part of the Confederacy, and Californians might wonder about a stronger case for reparations from damages caused by the China virus.
Evidence points to the Wuhan Institute of Virology, recipient of funds from the U.S. National Institutes of Health, which banned “gain of function” research in 2014 because of danger that a manipulated virus might be released into the population. The NIH revived the dangerous research in 2017 but kept it secret. The Wuhan Institute was an ideal place to hide gain of function, and Anthony Fauci backed the lab with more than $7 million. Dr. Fauci has been evasive about what, exactly, went on at Wuhan but there can be no dispute about the aftermath.
The China virus claimed more than 200,000 deaths in the United States alone and touched three leaders of G7 nations: President Trump, British prime minister Boris Johnson, and Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau, whose wife Sophie tested positive for the coronavirus in March. The economic damages are undeniable: millions unemployed, businesses going bankrupt, mounting debt, and all the social wreckage now on display.
President Trump is on record that this was all “China’s fault,” and China is going to pay “a big price” for what they’ve done to the United States and the world. One U.S. state is already taking measures. In April, Missouri attorney general Eric Schmitt filed a lawsuit charging that Chinese Communist officials are “responsible for the enormous death, suffering, and economic losses they inflicted on the world, including Missourians.” For Sen. Dianne Feinstein, California Democrat, the Missouri lawsuit was the problem.
“We launch a series of unknown events that could be very, very dangerous,” said Feinstein in a July 30, Senate Judiciary Committee hearing. “I think this is a huge mistake.” And Feinstein had only praise for China, “as a country that has pulled tens of millions of people out of poverty in a short period of time” and as “a country growing into a respectable nation among other nations. And I deeply believe that. I’ve been to China a number of times. I’ve studied the issues.”
Indeed, as Feinstein told James Areddy of the Wall Street Journal during a 2006 visit to Shanghai, the San Francisco Democrat had been coming to the Communist nation for 31 years. Feinstein compared Tiananmen Square to Kent State, and as Rosemarie Ho reported in The Nation, Democrats in general and Feinstein in particular ignored the Communist crackdown against Hong Kong.
As the San Francisco Chronicle noted, the Chinese spy on Feinstein’s staff for 20 years even attended Chinese Consulate functions for the senator, who has her own version of Hunter Biden. As Ben Weingarten reported in the Federalist in 2018, Feinstein’s husband Richard Blum has “profited handsomely from the greatly expanded China trade she supported.”
None of this has touched off an investigation, which confirms that FBI favors for Democrats go far beyond Hillary Clinton. A party that functions as a cheerleader for China will not seek any reparations from China, or any other entity that has inflicted vast damage on the United States.
On September 11, 2001, Islamic terrorists claimed nearly 3,000 American lives and caused billions in damages. If that not a case for reparations, it is hard to know what one would look like. Democrats made no case, and the president formerly known as Barry Soetoro shipped billions in cash to Iran, the major sponsor of terrorism in the world.
President Trump pushed back on terrorism, taking out Iranian master terrorist Soleimani and ISIS boss al-Baghdadi. Democrats were critical of these actions, and their diversionary push for slavery reparations has no merit. Neither does Gov. Newsom’s charge of “structural racism,” which as David Azerrad explains, lacks proof on the historical, legislative, and even the subconscious level.
The nation can only thrive, Gov. Newsom contends, “when every one of us has the opportunity to thrive.” As it happens, the most powerful figure in recent California history is the African American Willie Brown. The thriving assembly speaker set up his girlfriend Kamala Harris in lucrative sinecures and backed her career all the way to candidacy for what she has called a “Harris administration.”
Meanwhile, old-money Democrats are grooming Gov. Newsom for a presidential run in 2024. Should he succeed, the nation would never get reparations for terrorism or the China virus. On the other hand, the entire nation would soon look like California, whose rapid decline reminds Bill Maher of “Italy in the 70s or something.” As President Trump says, we’ll have to see what happens.
Peter Schweizer: Hunter Biden Still Owns
Ten Percent of Chinese Firm BHR
4,583
Hunter Biden, Joe Biden’s second
son, still owns a ten-percent stake in Chinese company Bohai Harvest RST (BHR),
an investment firm he co-founded with funding from the Bank of China, noted
Peter Schweizer, president of the government accountability Institute, senior
contributor to Breitbart News, and author of Profiles in Corruption: Abuse of Power by
America’s Progressive Elite.
In episode 17 of the Drill Down, entitled “Hunter
Biden’s Chinese Fortune,” Schweizer noted that Hunter Biden has not divested from BHR
despite his father’s presidential campaign.
“The idea that Hunter could
still profit off of the Chinese government if his father becomes president
remains an incredible potential conflict [of interest],” observed Schweizer. “A
conflict that seems all the more troubling when Joe Biden continues to dismiss China as a geopolitical
threat.”
Hunter Biden’s lawyer claimed
his client resigned from BHR’s board of directors, issuing a letter to this
effect via the Washington
Post. In September 2019, Schweizer highlighted the Washington Post‘s broad
omissions in reporting on Hunter Biden’s foreign business dealings during his
father’s vice-presidential tenure.
The Washington Post‘s Glenn Kessler
framed the aforementioned letter as a response to “Trump folks,” omitting any
mention of Hunter Biden’s ongoing ownership stake in BHR.
Trump folks pushing a line that Hunter
Biden never resigned from board, citing an apparently outdated database entry.

October, as originally reported. https://twitter.com/TimMurtaugh/status/1250585895960481799 …

Schweizer said, “Biden’s lawyer claims that his client did
resign, and has produced a document from Hunter’s China-based company saying as
much. Maybe. But Hunter’s attorney did not address the more important problem –
the fact that Hunter still owns a piece of the Chinese company, called BHR.”
“[BHR] is an investment vehicle, financed by the government of China,
which has conducted at least two-point-five billion dollars worth of deals,”
added Schweizer, “and Hunter Biden has a ten percent equity piece of that.”

Hunter Biden’s Firms
Scored Reportedly Hundreds of Millions from Russians, Chinese, and Kazakhs
20 Jan 20205,644
5:51
Hunter Biden, son of 2020 presidential candidate Joe Biden, has
come under scrutiny for his business links to Ukrainian natural gas firm
Burisma while his father was vice president.
Now, a new book by author Peter Schweizer reveals Hunter Biden
forged other business deals with individuals and entities tied with the
governments of Russia, China, and Kazakhstan, that reportedly scored him
hundreds of millions of dollars.
The book, titled Profiles in Corruption: Abuse of Power by
America’s Progressive Elite., lays out how
Hunter Biden and his business partners, in addition to his numerous
Rosemont-branded entities and ventures, was deeply involved with an entity
called the Burnham Financial Group.
Hunter and his business partner, Devon Archer, used Burnham to
make foreign deals with governments and oligarchs, according to a copy of
the book viewed by Breitbart News.
One of those oligarchs included Nurlan Abduov, the associate of
another Kazakh oligarch, Kenges Rakishev. Rakishev is the son-in-law of the
former vice prime minister of Kazakhstan, Imangali Tasmagambetov. Tasmagamvetov
was also formerly the defense minister, and is now the Kazakh ambassador
to Russia.
According to the book, an account Hunter regularly received
funds from showed money arriving from a firm run by Rakishev in 2014:
A Morgan Stanley investment account from which Hunter regularly
received funds shows money arriving from mysterious
sources around the world. There is a $142,300 deposit in April 2014 from Kazakh
oligarch–controlled Novatus Holdings. Kenges
Rakishev, whose father-in-law is the former vice prime minister of Kazakhstan
and a close ally of Kazakh dictator Nursultan
Nazarbayev, runs the offshore firm.
While Burnham received funds from Kazakh oligarchs, Archer acted
as a backchannel between Kazakhstan to then-Secretary of State John Kerry,
according to the book. (Kerry’s stepson Chris Heinz was a business partner with
Biden and Archer in some of their ventures).
In a July 11, 2013, email, Kerry’s chief of staff David Wade
wrote to Archer:
Devon: understand you spoke to the Secretary re having him call
[Kazakh] Foreign Minister Idrisov today, can you let me know topics Idrisov
wants to talk about/any requests he’ll have of the boss, so we can get paper
prepared for a call. Hopefully, the situation on the home front will leave him
time to do it.
Burnham also had business deals with two mysterious Chinese
companies — Kirin Global Enterprses Limited and Harvest Global Investors,
according to the book.
Kirin Global Enterprise Limited was an investment vehicle
run by Xiangyao (or Yaojun) “Larry” Liu and Guo Jianfeng, according to
Schweizer. “Very little is known about Kirin or its two principals, other than
the fact that they invest heavily in mainland Chinese real estate,” he writes.
Harvest Global Investors was a Chinese investment firm linked to the government
in Beijing.
Burnham also had a financial relationship with Russian Oligarch
Yelena Baturina, a billionaire with extensive political connections in Moscow
and links to Russian organized crime, according to Schweizer. Archer said
Baturina invested $200 million into “various investment funds” with which he
was involved.
Burnham also got wrapped up in a $60 million fraudulent bond
scheme to rip off union pension funds and the poorest Indian tribe in America,
the Oglala Sioux, Schweizer writes.
In May 2016, Archer was arrested in New York and charged with
“orchestrating a scheme to defraud investors and a Native American tribal
entity of tens of millions of dollars.”
Some of the targeted were government employee or labor union
organizations that had supported Joe Biden in the past. Biden has long
described himself as a “union man.”
Although Hunter Biden was not charged, Schweizer writes, “his
fingerprints were all over Burnham.” The legitimacy that his name and political
status as the vice president’s son lent to Burnham was brought up repeatedly
during the trial, he writes.
That status was used as a means of both recruiting pension money
into the scheme and alleviating investors’ concerns, he writes. In
an August 2014 email, Jason Galanis, who was convicted in the bond scheme,
agreed that Burnham had “value beyond capital” because of their political
connections.
Hunter Biden had an office at Burnham’s New York City offices on
Fifty-Seventh Street, and during the trial, numerous witnesses came forward
describing Hunter’s involvement with the firm, according to the book.
Schweizer writes these deals have long been a pattern with the
Biden family, to include Hunter Biden:
With the election of his father as vice president, Hunter Biden
launched businesses fused to his father’s power that led him to lucrative deals
with a rogue’s gallery of governments and oligarchs around the world. Sometimes
he would hitch a prominent ride with his father aboard Air Force Two to visit a
country where he was courting business. Other times, the deals would be done
more discreetly. Always they involved foreign entities that appeared to be
seeking something from his father. Often, the countries in question, including
Ukraine, Russia, and Kazakhstan, had highly corrupt political cultures.
In short, Hunter Biden was not cutting business
deals in Japan or Great Britain, where
disclosure rules and corporate governance
might require greater scrutiny. These were
deals in the truly dark corners of the world.

Second batch of smoking gun emails reveal Hunter Biden's dealings with 'disappeared' Chinese energy company chairman about his $30 MILLION consultancy fee 'for introductions alone'
- Hunter Biden was involved with China's largest private energy company CEFC
- He was given equity, ownership of a holding company and huge consulting fees
- Hunter was dealing with CEFC chairman Ye Jianming who has since vanished
- In one email, Hunter said a lucrative deal would be 'interesting for my family'
- A report about the emails did not include response from Biden or others involved
Hunter Biden pursued deals with a major Chinese energy company including one that would be 'interesting for me and my family', new secret emails said to be from the presidential candidate's son claim.
He also struck a deal for $30 million plus bonuses 'based on introductions alone' over three years after his father left office, then was offered a 'much more lasting and lucrative arrangement.'
The son of the Democratic presidential nominee communicated with China's largest private energy company, CEFC, according to the latest trove of messages unearthed by the New York Post from what is said to be Hunter's personal laptop.
The trove of emails have set of a series of political shockwaves including:
- The laptop was revealed to include a picture of Hunter with what appears to be a crack pipe, and an 11-minute sex and drug video which is still to be seen;
- Twitter barred the Trump campaign from its account for trying to share the originally story about Hunter's Ukraine emails amid a mounting row over 'censorship' by it and Facebook;
- Donald Trump seized on the release - orchestrated by his personal attorney Rudy Giuliani - to call his rival 'a corrupt politician';
- Senate Republicans said they will investigate the first tranche of emails, from Hunter's Ukrainian business partners, which appear to show the Burisma energy aide being introduced to Joe Biden when he was vice president;
- Democrats accusing Giuliani of peddling 'misinformation' and 'parading around with a Russian agent.'
The latest emails, published again early in the morning, focus on Hunter's dealings with Ye Jianming, the former chairman of CEFC in 2017, after his father had left office and when it was thought he would not run in 2020.
Ye has not been seen since he was taken into custody by Chinese authorities in 2018 amid rumored links to the Chinese military and intelligence services.
It was previously known that he gave Hunter a diamond
CEFC went bankrupt earlier this year after it was unable to repay its huge debts after warnings over its lack of transparency and dealings with sanctioned Russian firms.
In one email sent to Hunter in May 2017 titled 'Expectations', details of 'remuneration packages' for six people in a business venture were discussed.
He was identified as the 'chair/vice chair depending on agreement with CEFC', an apparent reference to the now bankrupt Shanghai conglomerate China Energy Co.
Hunter's pay was '850' and the correspondence also noted how he 'has some office expectations he will elaborate'.
New leaked emails said to be from Hunter Biden show his apparent involvement with major Chinese firms as he discussed lucrative deals that would be 'interesting for me and my family'
Hunter is said to have struck deals with Ye Jianming, the former chairman of CEFC, who has not been seen since his arrest in 2018
How it would work? An image from Hunter's laptop appears to show the way in which his deal with Jianming would be structured
Extracts from one email published Thursday by the New York Post show how Hunter Biden was to be paid $850,000 in part of his arrangement with the Chinese firm
Another email outlines a 'provisional agreement' where 80 per cent of the 'equity' would be shared equally among four people whose initials appear to relate to Hunter and three other recipients.
The sender of the email, James Gilliar, from consulting firm J2cR, said: 'I am happy to raise any detail with Zang if there is shortfalls?'
The email divides the equity into '20 H' - meaning 20 per cent equity to Hunter; 20 per cent to RW, meaning Rob Walker, also of the jc2r consultancy; 20 per cent to another man called Tony Bubulinski.
The remaining 20 per cent was split with 10 per cent going to 'Jim' who is otherwise unnamed, and then '10 held by H for the big guy?'
The big guy is unnamed.
Zang appears to be a reference to Zang Jian Jun who was the former executive director of CEFC.
In another 2017 email, Hunted reportedly discussed a deal with Ye. According to the leaked emails, Biden wrote that Ye had been influential in improving a three-year consulting contract with CEFC that would pay him $10million annually just for introductions.
He was given half ownership of a holding company to sweeten the deal, with Ye owning the other half.
According to the leaked emails, Biden wrote: 'Consulting fees is one piece of our income stream but the reason this proposal by the chairman was so much more interesting to me and my family is that we would also be partners inn the equity and profits of the JV's [joint venture's] investments.'
His email was sent to Gongwen Dong who has been linked to the purchase of two luxury Manhattan apartments for a total of $83million, which were bought by companies linked to Ye, according to the Wall Street Journal.
A photo from August 2017 appears to show a flowchart of the ownership of Hudson West which is split equally between Hunter Biden and 'Chairman'.
A report on Biden's business dealings released last month found Hudson West III opened a line of credit in September 2017.
Credit cards issued against the account were used by Hunter, his uncle James and James's wife Sara.
They purchased more than $100,000 worth of items including airline tickets, Apple products, hotel and restaurant bookings, according to the report released by Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) and Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa).
Hudson West has since been dissolved and Hunter's law firm Owaco PC was one of its two owners the report said.
Also seen in the emails was an agreement from one of Ye's associates to pay Biden a retainer of $1million for counsel on US law.
The offer was made by former Hong Kong government official Chi Ping Patrick Ho, who has been convicted in Manhattan for two schemes to pay $3million in bribes to African government officials for oil rights.
He served a prison sentence of three years and was deported to Hong Kong in June.
Hunter Biden and his father Joe Biden in 2016. Hunter's business dealings in Ukraine were at the center of the Trump impeachment case
Donald Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani has been probing Hunter Biden's business dealings in Ukraine
The Democratic candidate's son's photos were part of the laptop which was obtained by Rudy Giuliani's attorney and has now been released by the president's lawyer
The revelations come after emails come from Hunter's laptop appeared to show him making an introduction between his powerful father and a Ukrainian energy firm on Wednesday.
Gas company Burisma' adviser Vadym Pozharskyi thanked Hunter for 'an opportunity to meet your father' in an email sent in 2015, according to the stash of data given to the New York Post by Rudy Giuliani.
Biden dismissed the findings, and his spokesman Andrew Bates said the paper ' never asked the Biden campaign about the critical elements of this story...moreover, we have reviewed Joe Biden’s official schedules from the time and no meeting, as alleged by the New York Post, ever took place.'
The emails are among a trove being referenced by Giuliani and his team after the owner of a computer repair shop in Delaware recovered data from a MacBook pro laptop that was dropped off and never retrieved.
The computer was seized by the FBI and its contents shared with the Post by Giuliani.
Giuliani's lawyer Bob Costello said there are some 40,000 emails on the hard drive including thousands of texts. It also includes images of Hunter 'in very compromising positions,' Costello told Fox News.
There has been no comment on the new emails from Biden's campaign, his lawyer, nor the Chinese businessman.
But Biden's lawyer has previously dismissed the stories, accusing Giuliani of dishonesty.
