Did Hunter Biden Sleep with a Chinese Spy?

Swalwell himself has come under fire from Republicans for his association with an alleged Chinese spy named “Fang Fang.” Axios in December 2020 reported that the alleged spy, Christine Fang, also known as “Fang Fang,” targeted Swalwell, and had taken part in fundraising activity for his 2014 re-election campaign, and had helped place “at least one” intern in his office.
Report: Alleged Spy Lover Eric Swalwell Arranged Press Conference for Hunter Biden
When Hunter Biden, son of President Joe Biden, delivered remarks at a press conference Wednesday outside the Capitol, only one Democrat lawmaker was there in support — Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA).
In fact, according to reports, Swalwell arranged for Biden’s appearance.
Swalwell told Politico his decision to do so was personal as well as political.
“There is absolutely zero evidence Hunter or his father acted corruptly,” Swalwell said. “So I’m not going to sit quietly and let MAGA Republicans do Trump’s bidding in Congress.”
Swalwell himself has come under fire from Republicans for his association with an alleged Chinese spy named “Fang Fang.” Axios in December 2020 reported that the alleged spy, Christine Fang, also known as “Fang Fang,” targeted Swalwell, and had taken part in fundraising activity for his 2014 re-election campaign, and had helped place “at least one” intern in his office.
Axios reported that federal investigators who were conducting a counterintelligence probe alerted Swalwell around 2015 to her behavior.
Fang “left the country unexpectedly” amid the probe. Swalwell has refused to address whether his relationship with Fang was sexual.
The younger Biden claimed in his remarks he was there to answer questions from lawmakers, while defying a congressional subpoena for a closed-door deposition in front of the House Oversight Committee related to the panel’s investigation into whether his father benefitted from his shady business dealings, including with Chinese businessmen with connections to the Chinese Communist Party.
Biden reportedly did not give Republican lawmakers advance notice that he would be showing up. He did, however, tell his father ahead of time, according to Politico.
Still, Swalwell argued that Biden was being forthcoming by merely showing his face at the Capitol.
“Chairman Comer…asked for Hunter Biden to come testify. He said publicly or privately. Hunter said, ‘Well, let’s do it publicly,” Swalwell said, according to the Washington Examiner.
“Hunter’s here. And so, to Chairman Comer, I say: ‘What are you afraid of hearing from?’ It sounds like the only reason you would want to do this privately is if you don’t have the goods,” he said.
While Democrats did not show up for his press conference, they defended Biden from afar.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) claimed there were no “witnesses” to any of Republicans’ allegations, despite the testimony of former Hunter Biden business partners Tony Bobulinski and Devon Archer and IRS whistleblowers who alleged Joe Biden was involved in his son’s business affairs.

The paid agent behind the Oval Office desk
Via John Hinderaker of Power Line, Andy McCarthy at National Review has a stunning piece outlining the depths of Joe Biden's involvement as China's little agent, tying together details which will make you wanting to take a shower afterward.
He writes:
Thanks to the extensive excavation of Biden financial records by Senators Chuck Grassley (R., Iowa) and Ron Johnson (R., Wis.), followed by the dogged reporting of the New York Post once Hunter’s abandoned laptop was exposed, the outlines of the story were publicly available before Election Day 2020. The Biden/China scheme may not have been sufficiently known, but it was eminently knowable — so much so that I presented it in detail in “A Collusion Tale: China and the Bidens,” which we published on October 31, 2020 — the weekend before the election.
The story has gotten more damning with the additional evidence unearthed by the Oversight Committee under the direction of Chairman James Comer (R., Ky.). But it hasn’t changed.
CEFC, the Shanghai-based energy conglomerate with which Joe Biden and his family joined forces, was China. To describe it as a “thinly veiled” arm of Xi Jinping’s monstrous regime would exaggerate the camouflage. It was run by Ye Jianming, whom the Bidens deemed a protégé of Xi — as the president’s brother, Jim Biden, conceded to federal investigators.
How could it be otherwise? As I recounted in October 2020, CEFC’s position as a privileged “private” company was established by the regime in 2006 (when Xi was the rising star of the CCP).
The fake Chinese front company disappeared from view along with its agents, as soon as its activities got brazen enough for lawmen to start examining them -- in an instant. But the Bidens had already gotten their money, and performed their services, and it was a lot of money -- big $10,000,000 amounts. The Chinese not only used the Bidens to find out little things like what the FBI had on their agents, they also used it to muscle other countries to jump onboard with their One Belt, One Road initiative and other projects, letting them know that they already had the Bidens in their pocket so there was no protection out there for them:
This, of course, is why the Biden connection was so valuable — why CEFC was willing to pay millions of dollars for it. Doors were opened by the association with Joe Biden, one of America’s most prominent, influential politicians. If CEFC could brandish cordial relations and a business partnership with the Biden family, then other targets of China’s OBOR blandishments would be more willing to transact.
China is famous for getting the hooks in in a string of third world nations, all of which have become remarkably uncooperative with the U.S., and not even interested in making alliances with it any more. We've lost influence as joining in the China-led BRICS bloc has become the hot new thing.
Does it sound like Joe Biden has undermined our international interests with his takings from the Chinese regime, all to buy those mansions and fancy cars? Somehow, the U.S. doesn't have the influence it used to have internationally, and it's not just because of President Obama's constant apology tours. It was having Joe on their string that pretty well negated the U.S. as a global player. It also doesn't help that with Joe around, we also lose wars and sport wokester troops on hormone treatments, wearing makeup and dresses.
I'd still like to know what Hunter Biden did with that diamond the Chinese agents presented him with, likely to avoid bank monitoring laws.
Acting as an agent of a foreign regime while in public office is treason by anyone's definition. It's also an impeachable offense, as is bribery, according to the Constitution's Article II, Section 4:
The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.
Where's the impeachment of this one, given the clarity of the charges?
Previous House Speaker Kevin McCarthy hemmed and hawed on it, believing perhaps that because past presidential impeachments have been on trivial matters and have always failed, this one wouldn't be any different.
But it is different, with millions of dollars changing hands and U.S. influence waning significantly. If this isn't dealt with in Congress, the stage will be set for any elected leader to do the same. Now that the facts are known, Andy McCarthy argues, that Joe cannot escape his China scandal paper trail at the very least. One hopes that he is right because the bribery and treason here couldn't be more real.

Hunter Biden Chaos Could ‘Ruin Things’ for His Dad’s Reelection Bid: ‘Unwelcome Distraction’
The continual news generated by Hunter Biden and his legal conflicts damages President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign with undue controversy and distractions, Democrats openly complain.
Hunter Biden’s chaos amid his father’s reelection campaign is just one more communications problem with which the president’s campaign staff must contend. Joe Biden’s age, mental fitness, and sluggish economy seemingly sunk his approval ratings to historic lows:
- FiveThirtyEight: Biden is the least popular president in modern U.S. history.
- CNN Poll: 67 percent disapprove of Biden’s economy, top 2024 issue.
- Redfield & Wilton Strategies: A majority of Democrats are “concerned” about Biden’s ability to perform his job due to his age.
“I have a pit in my stomach about it,” a Democrat strategist who worked on Clinton’s 2016 campaign told the Messenger about the chaos surrounding Hunter Biden. “The email controversy was silly but it was made to be a distraction and it worked.”
“This Hunter story has the legs to ruin things for Biden,” the Democrat strategist added.
Democrat strategist Brad Bannon told the Messenger Joe Biden’s son is just one more challenge facing the president’s reelection campaign: “Hunter Biden isn’t the biggest political problem that his father faces but the situation is an unwelcome distraction for an embattled president burdened by concerns about the economy and age.”
“The controversy about Hunter Biden’s financial dealings might play the same role for Republicans that Hillary Clinton’s emails did in 2016,” Bannon noted.
House Oversight Ranking Member Jamie Raskin (D-MD), who is leading the Democrats’ opposition to the impeachment inquiry, refused to say whether Hunter Biden hurts Joe Biden’s campaign. “I don’t know whether or not it’s hurting him,” he said. “I hope that the American people are able to see past it.”
“They figure this is their best shot, to create a dark cloud over the Biden family and hope that that affects Joe,” he added.
Recent polling shows Americans are highly skeptical of Hunter and Joe Biden:
- ABC News/Ipsos: A plurality of Americans are not confident about how the Justice Department handled the investigation into Hunter Biden.
- Yahoo/YouGov: A majority of voters believe President Joe Biden committed a crime with Hunter Biden.
- TIPP: 63 percent say Joe Biden violated FARA by assisting Hunter Biden in Ukraine deal.

THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGE PERPERATED BY THIS POS IS INESTIMABLE AND THAT'S HOW HIS WALL STREET CRONIES, GEOGE SOROS AND LARRY FINK WANTED IT!
JOE BIDEN IS A SOCIOPATH GAMER LAWYER. HE HAS NEVER TAKEN REPSONSIBLITY FOR ANYTHING. HE HAS SLATHERED IT ALL WITH IS LIES!
It would only require him to accept responsibility for the crime syndicate he created.
Head of Biden Crime Family Feels Guilty...but Doesn’t Plead Guilty
The MSM are reporting that Joe Biden is raging at his staff because of the unfairness of Hunter being investigated. It’s giving old Joe a guilty conscience. I didn’t even know that was possible. According to Axios:
The 81-year-old president has suggested to close associates that if he hadn't run in 2020, Hunter wouldn't be facing criminal prosecutions or be the target of daily stories by conservative media — all while trying to stay sober and rebuild his life.
Perhaps for the first time in his 53 years of collecting bribes for selling out the public that pays his salary, our president “in name only” got something right. Hunter certainly wouldn’t be in legal jeopardy if Joe hadn’t run for office again in 2020. But ultimately, Joe’s greed and lust for power may turn out to be his son’s undoing.
Joe Biden certainly has much to feel guilty for — but not for the reason he claims. He complains that his son is being politically persecuted as a grotesque act of revenge for himself being elected. Certainly, that’s the narrative (i.e., propaganda of Joe’s cohorts in the media). The counter-argument is quite different. Hunter is being legally pursued because Joe
- committed his son to a life of crime as the bagman for the Biden family crime syndicate,
- selling U.S. government favors for personal enrichment
- to some of the world’s most nefarious actors,
- then ran for the office of president to enhance his earning potential from those clients,
- leaving his son exposed, because organized crime investigations always start at the bottom, where Hunter resides.
Joe could have gone quietly into retirement after his time as Barack Obama’s vice president — concluding his 46-year crime spree. Had he done that, Congress and the conservative media would have lost interest, and Hunter would have faded into obscurity.
But the “Don” of the Biden family decided to push his luck. He wanted a few more years of grift and sleaze, before retiring to his beach home, his classic Corvette, and his publicly funded muscle protective detail. He expected us to grant him that opportunity without complaint. That turned out to have been an unreasonable expectation after he stole the last election and called his citizens “fascists.”
When Joe made it necessary for himself to be investigated, it was inevitable that his underlings would be placed at risk first — including his son, the collections guy.
Joe Biden has always known that he is personally safe from facing justice. That’s why he’s been so bold in his public displays. As the vice president, he took Hunter Biden on Air Force Two to meet with family clients in Russia, Ukraine, and China — on full display for the news cameras. He also boasted in a public speech about using the power of the U.S. government to shut down the investigation of his Ukrainian client. Joe has behaved just as Al Capone once did — bragging to the public as if he were untouchable. As the country’s chief executive, with the federal law enforcement apparatus in his pocket and his syndicate associates in Congress, he could confidently rest assured that he would never personally pay for his crimes. That bill would come due for someone else — as it almost always does in crime families.
But now the Capo of the Biden family has seen
- his bank records seized by Congressional investigators,
- his involvement exposed by a misplaced laptop, and
- whistleblowers testifying that operatives in his syndicate corrupted federal investigations.
Boss Biden is getting scared and doing what crime bosses do: blaming his underlings. Naturally that blaming is causing friction in the family. As a result, Joe’s relationship with Merrick Garland, his head “button man,” has become strained. It seems President “Ten Percent for the Big Guy” isn’t happy about Attorney General Garland appointing a special counsel to look into his son. As Axios reports,
[o]ne person close to the president unflatteringly compared Garland to former FBI Director James Comey, claiming they both have been obsessed with the appearance of having integrity rather than just trying to make the right decision — a reference to Comey's handling of the Hillary Clinton email investigation.
The “right decision” in this instance being the continuation of the Biden family crime cover-up (i.e., taking one for the team). One can always tell when an organized crime operation starts becoming less organized. The finger-pointing gives it away.
All crime families eventually leave too much evidence lying about to be ignored. It’s the nature of criminal behavior. That inevitability is exacerbated when one of the family members has a demonstrated lack of self-control relative to drugs, women, and extravagant spending. It attracts the wrong kind of attention. In the end, someone must pay for the crime. It’s usually an underling, who is expected to remain loyal to the mob, serving the time and keeping quiet, to avoid retribution or in exchange for future rewards. However, it doesn’t always work that way. There is frequently no honor among dishonorable men.
Now that Merrick Garland sees the end of his tenure approaching, perhaps he’s reflecting on his career. He was once a respected judge, even considered for a position on the Supreme Court. But under Biden’s leadership, he has become an unprincipled thug, using the full apparatus of the federal legal system to target innocent citizens and political opponents. Will he pay the legal bill for Joe by using his Department of Justice to hide the evidence of Biden wrongdoing? Will he trade his place in the history books from that of a judge to that of the most corrupt attorney general in history, who facilitated the crimes of the most crooked administration in history? Will he make that sacrifice for a president who will soon have nothing to reward him with, nor anything to threaten him with? Or will Mr. “No One Is above the Law” attempt to rehabilitate his legacy by prosecuting one of his co-conspirators — leaving Hunter without a chair when the music stops?
If the bill comes due for Hunter, will he voluntarily pick up the tab for the syndicate? Will he have the spine to do the time — out of love for a father who cherished him just enough to include him in his crimes?
Life’s choices come with consequences. When Joe Biden chose to introduce his son to a life of crime, he started the chain of events that are now playing out. Whatever becomes of Hunter, it is because of Joe’s actions, not those of law enforcement or the conservative media.
Of course, if Joe Biden really feels the least bit guilty for the predicament his son is in, he can end his son’s suffering instantly. It would only require him to accept responsibility for the crime syndicate he created. With that simple act, his opponents would cease having any interest in Hunter whatsoever. But I suspect that his guilt isn’t troubling enough for such an act of selflessness. Better to let his beloved son suffer a few years of torment “while trying to stay sober and rebuild his life.”

Report: Joe Biden Feels ‘Guilty’ About Hunter Biden Indictments
President Joe Biden reportedly feels “guilty” for his son’s legal woes, telling aides that Hunter Biden would not be facing scrutiny for the millions of dollars he raked in from foreign business deals had he not run for president.
Hunter Biden is facing 17 years for nine tax charges and is at the center of the House impeachment inquiry into his father, in which investigators are probing how the Biden family made tens of millions of dollars in China, Ukraine, and other corrupt countries with no discernible service rendered. Special Counsel David Weiss is allegedly not done investigating the Biden scion and has yet to indicate if he looked into the nature of Biden’s work on behalf of foreign entities.
The report, published by Axios, claims the president experienced mood swings and expressed “anger” and “sadness,” believing his run for office brought attention to his family’s sketchy foreign business that otherwise would not have received attention.
“The 81-year-old president has suggested to close associates that if he hadn’t run in 2020, Hunter wouldn’t be facing criminal prosecutions or be the target of daily stories by conservative media,” Axios reported. The president appears, according to Axios, to still be denying, even in private, the obvious merits of the investigation.
Weiss charged Hunter Biden on Thursday, asserting he was “engaged in a four-year scheme” to not pay at least $1.4 million in taxes “he owed for tax years 2016 through 2019 and to evade the assessment of taxes for tax year 2018 when he filed false returns.”
Weiss referenced money that flowed from Ukrainian energy company Burisma Holdings in the indictment. Weiss did not charge Hunter Biden for Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) violations. Constitutional scholar Jonathan Turley believes Weiss’s tax indictment should have included FARA charges.
“The steps taken by Hunter to evade taxes are impressive, but not nearly as impressive as the efforts of the Justice Department to evade any reference to his father. In that sense, the indictment itself is a marvel of evasion,” Turley posted on X.
House investigators opened a probe into the Biden family in November 2022. They revealed Joe Biden received money from James Biden and Hunter Biden. They also showed that nine additional Biden family members received payments from the family’s foreign business ventures, including two of the president’s grandchildren.
More evidence against Joe Biden can be found here.
