BUT ISN'T JOJO SWEETHEARTS WITH THE CHINESE EVEN AS THEY MOP THE ROOM WITH HIM???
Hunter and Joe Shook Down the Chinese. Then Joe Got a Big Check
Now we know how the 'Big Guy' got paid.
The big question was always how Joe Biden, aka the Big Guy, was getting paid Joe Biden and his media allies have made a point of this in defending him. They’ll concede that Hunter and even James, Joe’s brother, were involved in some shady stuff. They’ll concede that Joe Biden lent his influence by showing up to meetings and joining in on calls, but they’ll claim that he never got any money. Now Rep. James Comer and the House Oversight Committee are find out how Joe allegedly got paid.
And the answer is ‘loan repayments.’
Earlier in October, House Oversight turned up a “loan repayment” tied to wrecked hospitals and Islamic terrorists.
According to bankruptcy court documents, James Biden received these loans “based upon representations that his last name, ‘Biden,’ could ‘open doors’ and that he could obtain a large investment from the Middle East based on his political connections.”
According to the Americore CEO, “Jim Biden directed me to loan him approximately $400,000 of this money for him to use to repay a past-due personal loan.”
Later, “Biden took additional amounts totaling approximately $250,000.”
On March 1, 2018, Americore wired a $200,000 loan into James and Sara Biden’s personal bank account – not their business bank account. On the same day, James Biden wrote a $200,000 check from this same personal bank account to Joe Biden.
Here’s another ‘loan repayment’ linked to what was the most direct example of Joe Biden getting involved in a Hunter shakedown.
A July 30th, 2017, WhatsApp message from Hunter Biden to Henry Zhao, where Hunter Biden wrote: “I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled. Tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand, and now means tonight. And, Z, if I get a call or text from anyone involved in this other than you, Zhang, or the chairman, I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not following my direction. I am sitting here waiting for the call with my father.”
Joe Biden has denied being present, but now we know what happened afterward. Another ‘loan repayment.‘
The money trail begins in July 2017 when Hunter Biden demanded payment from his Chinese Communist Party (CCP) linked associate. On July 30, 2017, Hunter Biden sent a message to Raymond Zhao—a CEFC associate—demanding a $10 million dollar capital payment and claimed his father, Joe Biden, was sitting in the room. CEFC is a Chinese energy company linked to the CCP. The Bidens began working with CEFC when Joe Biden was Vice President.
On August 8, 2017, Northern International Capital, a Chinese company affiliated with CEFC, sent $5 million to Hudson West III, a joint venture established by Hunter Biden and CEFC associate Gongwen Dong. That same day, Hudson West III sent $400,000 to Owasco, P.C., an entity owned and controlled by Hunter Biden. On August 14, 2017, Hunter Biden wired $150,000 to Lion Hall Group, a company owned by President Biden’s brother James and sister-in-law Sara Biden. On August 28, 2017, Sara Biden withdrew $50,000 in cash from Lion Hall Group. Later the same day, she deposited it into her and James Biden’s personal checking account. On September 3, 2017, Sara Biden cut a check to Joe Biden for $40,000 for a “loan repayment.”
Two points make a line. We now have a pattern of how the Big Guy was getting paid.
Biden will argue that the loan repayments were just that, but he was well aware of his brother and son’s business arrangements because he was meeting up with some of the principal players. His son and brother were using his name to build business connections and Joe Biden would have to be deaf, dumb and blind not to realize why he was being asked to join calls or show up to meet with their business partners. And then he took money from his brother and sister-in-law that appeared to have come as a result of these business dealings.
Whether or not he loaned them the money, the only remaining defense, is irrelevant. When Joe Biden loaned the money, he understood where the debt would be repaid from. All of this makes him a partner in their work.
Joe Biden financially benefited from the activities of his family members. This is no doubt the tip of the iceberg, but it shows how the payments were structured and the money was laundered.

Biden’s America: White House Tells Schools to Stock Up on Narcan Amid Surging Youth Fentanyl Deaths
President Joe Biden’s administration is now advising schools across the United States to keep the overdose reversal drug naloxone, commonly known as Narcan, in stock amid a surging number of fentanyl deaths among American children.
In a letter to the nation’s school systems, Biden and Education Department Secretary Miguel Cardona ask administrators to begin carrying naloxone and train teachers on how to administer the drug when a student is overdosing or being poisoned by fentanyl.
“In the midst of this fentanyl overdose epidemic, it is important to focus on measures to prevent youth drug use and ensure that every school has naloxone and has prepared its students and faculty to use it,” the letter reads:
Studies show that naloxone access can reduce overdose death rates, that its availability does not lead to increases in youth drug use, and that it causes no harm if used on a person who is not overdosing on opioids. It is important to note that individuals should not be afraid to administer naloxone, as most states have Good Samaritan Laws protecting bystanders who aid at the scene of an overdose. Our schools are on the frontlines of this epidemic, but our teachers and students can be equipped with tools to save lives. [Emphasis added]

The letter comes as fentanyl deaths are now the leading cause of death among Americans from 18 to 45 and adolescent deaths associated with the poisonous drug have skyrocketed, as Axios reported:
Median monthly overdose deaths among adolescents ages 10-19 increased by 109% between the second half of 2019 and the second half of 2021, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data. Deaths involving illicitly manufactured fentanyl increased by 182%. [Emphasis added]
Just this week, news broke that in Loudon County, Virginia, at least eight high school students have overdosed on fentanyl and naloxone had to be administered to save their lives. In January, a high school student was saved by a school nurse who administered naloxone after the student overdosied on fentanyl.
During a congressional hearing earlier this year, Rebecca Kiessling explained that fentanyl deaths among young Americans are primarily poisonings, and the consumer is unaware they are ingesting deadly fentanyl. Kiessling lost both of her sons after they took counterfeit pills laced with fentanyl, unknowingly.
C-SPANIn 2019, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) issued a report that detailed how fentanyl is ending up in every American community across the nation and laced into many street drugs and counterfeit pills.
Essentially, the DEA report states that fentanyl in the U.S. is manufactured in China before being sent to Mexico, where the Mexican drug cartels then traffick the poisonous drug into American communities via the U.S.-Mexico border.

“Currently, China remains the primary source of fentanyl and fentanyl-related substances trafficked through international mail and express consignment operations environment, as well as the main source for all fentanyl-related substances trafficked into the United States,” the report states:
Fentanyl is smuggled across the U.S.-Mexico border in low concentration, high-volume loads, kilogram seizures often contain less than a 10 percent concentration of fentanyl. [Emphasis added]
…
DEA reporting continues to indicate the Sinaloa and the New Generation Jalisco (Cártel de Jalisco Nueva Generación or CJNG) cartels are likely the primary trafficking groups responsible for smuggling fentanyl into the United States from Mexico. [Emphasis added]
In 2022, more than 100,000 Americans died of drug overdoses or poisonings — nearly 70 percent of which were due to fentanyl. This figure indicates that fentanyl is killing more Americans annually than car crashes and breast cancer.

Mexican Government Impotent as Gulf Cartel Spreads Terror Through Border State Highways
Mexico’s government remains impotent as the Gulf Cartel continues to spread terror through highways in the border state of Tamaulipas. Either for political beliefs or because of widespread corruption, local, state, and federal forces left residents to their fate as convoys of cartel gunmen freely roamed the state highways, clashing with rivals. In addition to the fighting, gunmen have also been carrying out carjackings, kidnappings, and other crimes targeting innocent civilians.
State government officials continue to claim that the violence in Tamaulipas is due to isolated incidents and that crime continues to decrease. Claims to the contrary are brushed off as attacks from political rivals. However, locals claim that is a complete lie.
One of the chief complaints is the lack of police and military patrol along the state highways that connect main cities such as Ciudad Victoria, Matamoros, Reynosa, and San Fernando. It is in those areas that factions of the Gulf Cartel have been waging a fierce turf war with minimal interference from authorities.
Last week, a citizen journalist shared a video on social media that captured the moment when a group of gunmen forced a man out of his vehicle and pushed him into one of their vehicles. That abduction took place in broad daylight, along a busy highway, and without any interference from police forces. Government officials have yet to release any information about the case.
Breitbart Texas spoke with a local man who was traveling in a passenger bus headed from Matamoros to Ciudad Victoria. According to the local who asked not to be identified out of fear, halfway through the journey, the bus turned back after being warned by the Gulf Cartel that there was going to be a shootout just down the road.
As the bus passed the city of San Fernando, they came across a row of trucks with gunmen on the side of the road. According to the passenger, another truck pulled up next to the bus, passed them, and cut them off. Gunmen got out of the vehicle and told the driver to turn back because they were about to clash with rivals down the road.
The driver turned around and headed back to the Matamoros bus station.
“During the whole way, we did not see a single police vehicle or anyone that we could tell them about what was going on,” the traveler said.

GRAPHIC: Narco-Turf War Behind Weekend’s Murders in Mexican Border State Capital
Two murders in the Mexican border state of Tamaulipas over the weekend point to the reignition of a narco-turf war between criminal organizations. The murders come as government officials try to hide the control that criminal organizations have over the state.
The killings took place over the weekend in Ciudad Victoria, the capital of Tamaulipas. The most recent murder occurred on Saturday shortly after 6 a.m. outside of a cartel-connected nightclub called “La Capital.” Tamaulipas State Police Officer Miguel Angel Ventura Mora was coming out of that bar when a lone gunman approached him and shot him several times in the chest.
As part of the investigation, authorities learned that Ventura was one of the officers in charge of the security details at a police building at the intersection of 2nd and Zaragoza streets in Ciudad Victoria.
Just 24 hours before Ventura’s murder, a gunman had killed one man and injured another right outside of the same police building where Ventura worked.
In that case, a group of gunmen wearing vests and face coverings got out of a vehicle and shot 28-year-old Edwin Yahir Marin Cavazos and wounded his 19-year-old brother, Jesus Yael. The two brothers and their mother were leaving the police building when the gunmen pulled up, shot at them, and fled.
According to Tamaulipas law enforcement sources, Edwin was a local street-level dealer in Ciudad Victoria. One of the theories surrounding the murder points to a fight for control of the local distribution of drugs between rival drug cartels. It remains unclear which drug cartel Edwin worked for.
Authorities had arrested him on Thursday night on a minor charge, and his relatives had been there to bond him out when the shooting took place.
Investigators are also looking into the possible involvement of law enforcement individuals who may have tipped off the gunmen as to when Edwin and his family were going to leave the police building.

Two Gulf Cartel Kidnappers in Mexican Border State Sentenced to 1,650 Years in Prison
Two members of the Gulf Cartel previously convicted in connection to dozens of kidnappings received a prison sentence of 1,650 years. Both men were based in the Mexican border city of Reynosa, Tamaulipas, during the kidnapping spree.
On Wednesday, Mexico’s Attorney General’s Office announced the sentences against Christian Josué Galván Hernández and Santiago Betancourt Mora. Both men are currently being held in a high-security federal facility in Durango. A federal judge based in Matamoros, Tamaulipas, handed down the sentences against the two cartel members.
In the case of Galvan Hernandez, he had been tied to 66 kidnappings and several weapons charges. In comparison, Betancourt Mora was directly tied to 9 kidnappings, as well as various weapons and drug charges.
According to federal prosecutors, Mexican federal police officers arrested the two men in September 2013 while patrolling the city. The officers spotted the two gunmen going into a house. Authorities raided the house and found several kidnapping victims inside. Inside the house, authorities also found several weapons and packages of marijuana.
As Breitbart Texas reported, Reynosa is considered the bastion of the Metros faction of the Gulf Cartel. Historically, the criminal organization has been able to operate with much impunity. The cartel focuses on drug and human smuggling and the widespread use of extortion and kidnappings to diversify their income.
Since late April, the Metros have been at war with a rival faction from Matamoros called Escorpiones. For months, both factions have been carrying out numerous large-scale shootouts with complete impunity and minimal interference from Mexican authorities, Breitbart Texas reported.
