Schweizer Hits Another Home Run on Biden-China Corruption

Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win

by Peter Schweizer

352 pages, hardcover $18.25, Kindle $14.95
ISBN-10: 0063061147
Harper, 2022

Peter Schweizer is an Oxford graduate, former Hoover Institution Fellow, and cofounder and president of the Government Accountability Institute of Tallahassee, Florida.  He is a widely read and interviewed investigative journalist and has authored popular and well received books on political corruption: Clinton CashExtortionThrow Them All Out, and Architects of Ruin.

The book is the usual fare from Schweizer — based on well documented and researched financial records that support assertions of the author.  In this book, the focus is corruption in high places that results from cozy entanglements with China.  This book focuses on the Chinese communist connections for good reasons: China has set about a long-term effort to compromise the political, business, cultural, academic, and scientific elements of America as a set up for creating global Chinese hegemonic control and dominance.  The Chinese have accomplished a great deal in the decades since the ill begotten Kissinger Nixon opening to China in 1972, followed by the Clinton-Bush acquiescence to admission of China into the World Trade Association that was finalized with favored status in 2001.

Through these decades, the wolf, bear, coyote China has gradually expanded its dominance of world trade and economics by stealing intellectual property, using bribes and influence-purchasing, and standard espionage and propaganda methods.

The point of Red-Handed is exposing the participation of persons of influence in the West who have been compromised by Chinese efforts to buy influence and power — on a scale not previously seen.

Mr. Schweizer had a big scandal to investigate but a good team of researchers to help him organize the exposé — an exposé that warns of short-term and long-term danger for the survival of Western nations and the ascendancy of a savage and murderous Chinese communist tyrannical autocracy stained by a history of ethnic, religious, and domestic pogroms, persecutions, and genocide of immense and barbaric proportions that are numerous and stunning, extending forward from the millions of deaths of Mao's Cultural Revolution and the Great Leap Forward that resulted in the deaths of millions of Chinese from starvation and systematic political purges to modern-day activities that subjugate Tibet, Hong Kong, the domestic religious minorities while pursuing external influence and dominance.

Now under new leadership, China continues to commit atrocities domestically and expand its influence in foreign political and economic matters, which raises the question — how do the compromised oligarchs of the West who are ensnared in the Chinese web of influence sleep at night or excuse their complicity?  Is money enough to justify complicity with barbaric malevolence?  When does the complicity become the role of accessory to crimes ranging all the way to treason?

With the foregoing in mind, the best this review can do is identify and briefly describe and introduce evidence of the treasonous or traitorous American perps who have sold their positions, stature, and influence to the Chinese political peddlers.  Mr. Schweizer's systematic reviews and investigative revelations include the following (in order of the chapters) — and after every short summary comes my choice of a few words to describe the corruption and treason:

An introduction featuring the ROPE, alluding to the apocryphal commie saying that the capitalists will sell the communists the rope they can use to hang the capitalists.  This chapter is a warning and an exposition of how brutal and cruel socialist systems can infiltrate and influence — ultimately devour civil society from the inside.  How American core concepts can be compromised with cheap talk and promises — brutality can dominate civility, and culture can be eviscerated by aggressive activist advocacy of Marxist nonsense.  The key, though, is the complicity of American citizens.  (vice, infidelity and treachery)

A chapter on the evil and corrupt Biden family and its selling out to worldwide opportunities for corruption, but particularly Chinese influence-peddling. (decadence and depravity)

A wearying and maddening description of the corruption and pandering, grifting, and shilling by the denizens of capitol hill — Feinstein and family, Swallwell, Pelosi and family,  McConnell and Chou, former congress people like Senators  Boehner, Lott, Breaux, Baucus, and of course a long list of congressmen, also from both sides of the aisle — all selling their souls and positions of trust.  (degradation and degeneration)

The culture of power and money lust of the American Corporate Community and its major players — BlackRock, Goldman Sachs, Bridgewater, Google, Microsoft, Intel, Twitter, and Musk — and, of course, Gates — that draws them to a plutocracy that would never hesitate to betray America for a financial advantage or an opportunity to be a part of a global powerhouse oligarchy complicit with and colluding with malefactor government tyrannies. (avarice, cupidity, and rapaciousness)

The special place of diplomats and the chattering class as the lubricant for the social and societal resets best exemplified by pretentious poseurs like Kissinger, with so many others that the author exposes as self-promoting narcissists who achieve a grandeur that they consider to be well deserved, a grandeur usually as part of the dominant oligarchy — the list of exposed poseurs by the author is impressive because they saturate public life. (egoist and megalomaniac)

A special chapter set aside for the Bush and Trudeau families, who have been served by their associations with China at the expense of their home countries. (betrayers and quislings)

Academia, for various reasons, provides excellent examples of the perfidy of betrayal, but of course academics consider themselves beyond such pedestrian concepts as loyalty, fealty, family, tradition, constitutional government, since they are pursuing the greater good...and their greater good.  They also identify themselves as "experts," essential to the survival of the world and progress of mankind, although many have no marketable or real-world valuable skills. (overweening, smug, and vainglorious)

Mr. Schweizer saves the last chapter for a grand summary and proposal to reverse the corruption he's put on display that endangers the survival of America.  The key phrase he uses is "Elite Capture," and the elites are vulnerable.  He warns that republics are easy prey for autocrat countries' intel and military influence-peddling and sabotage.  

  • Clean up the lobbying and influence-peddling in D.C., and enforce foreign agent registration.
  • No lobbying and influence-peddling by foreign intel and military entities.
  • Clean up research and academics from influence-peddling and ban joint research.
  • Ban foreign military and intel company listings on the stock exchanges.
  • Engagement with foreign governments is a dangerous business.  Stop the looseness.
  • Transparency and all conflicts declared on all "experts" proposed by media, government, or academia.
  • Most of all, a return to the constitutional concepts of limited government and strict equality under the law, equal administration of the laws, no favorites or exceptions.  

Mr. Schweizer has received deserved praise for this excellent book, which is a product of extraordinary research.  I hope my introduction results in your decision to read it.  Three hundred fifty-two pages of your time.

A dark money group aligned with Democrat Senate Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) brought in a record $92 million in dark money from anonymous donors while Schumer blasted Republicans for using dark money.

Majority Forward is a nonprofit organization affiliated with Schumer’s Senate Majority PAC. Between July 2019 and June 2020, Majority Forward hauled in $92 million, according to the organization’s most recently released tax forms.

During the 2020 election cycle, Majority Forward gave Schumer’s Senate Majority PAC $51 million in contributions, making it the largest donor to Schumer’s PAC.

While Schumer benefitted from millions of dark money dollars, he criticized Republicans for doing the same thing. Schumer also pushed the Senate to pass the For the People Act, which contains provisions requiring political nonprofits to disclose donors who contribute more than $10,000.

“Majority Forward is kind of a dark money empire that the Democrat Party really doesn’t want to talk about, especially Chuck Schumer,” said Parker Thayer, a Capital Research Center investigator.

“The Democratic Party makes a big deal in public about getting rid of dark money, getting dark money out of politics, but the reality is even the New York Times is now reporting on this,” Thayer told Fox News.

Thayer referred to a recent New York Times report that found 15 of the most active Democrat dark money organizations outspent the top 15 Republican groups by a margin of over $600 million. Those Democrat dark money groups spent $1.5 billion during the 2020 cycle, compared to $900 million for Republican organizations.

Thayer pointed out the hypocrisy, telling Fox News:

Democrats use much more dark money than Republicans do, and they’re more than willing to take that funding as long as it benefits them, but they’ll still simultaneously call out conservatives and Republicans for using dark money as well.

Although Democrat dark money groups spent more than Republican groups in 2020, pro-GOP super PACs outraised their Democrat counterparts in 2021. For example, the pro-GOP Congressional Leadership Fund (CLF) raised double what the pro-democrat House Majority PAC did.

Last year, CLF brought in $110 million, compared to House Majority PAC’s $55 million.

JOE BIDEN - FOLKS, I ALWAYS HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF RED CHINA - JUST NEED TO KNOW WHAT'S IN IT FOR HUNTER? - Joe Biden Boasts About Buying ‘Made in America,’ Spends Over $1 Billion on Coronavirus Tests Made in China


I’d be inclined to disagree with Don except for one thing: Biden has proven to be a very adept criminal mastermind. For decades, he has funneled millions of dollars to his children and siblings and, especially, to his debauched, deviant son, Hunter.

President Joe Biden boasted on Friday that the federal government was finally purchasing goods “Made in America” just weeks after buying coronavirus tests made in China.

“I made it clear, that when the federal government spends taxpayer dollars we buy American products. American products, made in America,” Biden said, adding there had only been “very few exceptions” to the rule.

The president commented on his “Buy American” efforts during a speech at the White House about the January jobs report.

“It’s always been the law, it’s very seldom ever followed,” he said, about the principal to ensure government purchases American-made products. “Now it’s a reality, not an empty promise.”

Biden did not mention the federal government signed a $1.28 billion contract with China’s Andon Health Co., Ltd. in January to purchase over $250 million coronavirus self-test kits.

At the time, China’s state-run Global Times celebrated China’s contribution to the United States as a propaganda victory, as shares of Andon Health stocks spiked after Biden’s announcement.

The White House defended the purchase of coronavirus tests from China, noting a shortage of tests produced in the U.S. due to “the understandable demand” in the country.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki said the testing shortage in the U.S. “required us purchasing some of those tests from China in order to meet that demand.”


Kevin McCarthy: Democrats’ Visa Giveaway, China Bill ‘Helps China … Hurts America’

The Democrats’ bill to help the U.S. compete against China’s fast-growing manufacturing and technology sectors actually allows China to compete against America, GOP leader Kevin McCarthy said Wednesday.

McCarthy used his floor speech during the debate to spotlight visa provisions in the bill that would encourage U.S. companies and universities to hire and train Chinese graduates instead of American graduates:

They call it the American Competes Act. But make no mistake. It’s a bill that concedes to China. The American Concedes Act is Democrats desperate answer to their string of self-created crisis. While it contains some provisions supported by Republicans. Speaker Pelosi is holding these good ideas hostage by using this 3,000 page bill as a vehicle for the party’s far left agenda.  Almost every page of Democrats concede Act has a provision that helps China but hurts America.

Now here are just a few excerpts. On page 1,689, it provides a new unlimited green card program for the Chinese Communist Party to exploit.

The green card language was touted by Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-Ca), whose district includes part of Silicon Vallery.

Advocates say it allows the “best and brightest” foreign graduates to get green cards, jobs, and then citizenship if they work to get a science, technology, engineering, or math (STEM) PhD. in American or foreign universities. But the fine print of the bill shows it would give green cards to a wide variety of ordinary foreign graduates, including chemists, doctors, engineers, statisticians, accountants, tax experts, software developers, and computer security experts.

Lofgren said:

We must build our domestic STEM workforce and encourage startup companies to establish roots here. While increasing STEM scholarships for U.S. students, the act simultaneously draws the world’s best and brightest STEM doctoral recipients and company founders to the U.S. It ensures that individuals who earn STEM doctoral degrees from top research universities will be eligible for permanent residence. Unlike Canada, the United Kingdom and Germany, our laws don’t provide a visa option for company founders to start a new venture and create jobs in the United States. This Act would fix this.

I want to thank Priscilla Kim [Harvard, 2015] on my staff for the hard work she put into this.

The bill’s language sets no limits on the number of foreign migrants who can get green cards and then U.S. jobs and careers, nor does it set any minimum standards for the skills of those migrants.

Roughly 1.5 million non-immigrant, foreign contract workers — such as H-1B workers — have been imported and hired by CEOs to fill white-collar careers that would otherwise be held by U.S. graduates. The mass inflow of cheap and compliant foreign workers distorts the nation’s professional sector by empowering CEOs, suppressing U.S. salaries, undermining professionalism, slowing innovation, and diverting investment towards the coasts, such as Silicon Valley and New York.

The China bill is strongly backed by business groups, such as Mark Zuckerberg’s FWD.us advocacy group for West Coast investors: “According to FWD.us estimates, 100,000 international student graduates of U.S. colleges and universities each year would like to stay and work permanently in the U.S.,” the group said in a new report.

That 100,000 number is roughly one-eighth of all Americans who graduate each year from four-year colleges with degrees in healthcare, business, science, biology, software, math, or engineering.

Zuckerberg’s investor allies at FWD.us are leading the 2022 push for more migration and amnesty. The investor group is not just looking for extra workers — it wants more migrants because they also serve as consumers and renters.

The  American Action Forum, which is tied to investors and GOP donors, also endorsed the China bill’s green card giveaway: “These are desirable changes. Greater immigration raises the growth rate of the employed population, leading to more [-economic] output and income.”

Most of the Democrats who spoke during the Wednesday floor debate downplayed the distinction between the Americans and the imported workers in the nation’s workforce.

“It is an investment in our people,” said Rep. Haley Stevens (D-Mich). “I will always bet on the American workforce. My job in Congress is to connect people to the tools that unlock our future. And those tools are in this bill.

“China now surpasses the United States in the global share of research papers and consistently files more [artificial intelligence] patents than any other country,” said Rep. Jackie Speier (D-Ca). “We need to invest in talent,” she added, without citing Americans.

“Our future prosperity depends on what we do now to nurture STEM talent in our country,” said Rep. Deborah Ross D-NC), who also filed an amendment that would allow the children of Indian contract workers to get green cards.

“We need to be making goods in America with American workers,” said Majority Leader Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), before adding that the bill:

…maximizes the American talent pool fruit by strengthening and diversifying our nation’s STEM workforce. This is very important because we want many more people, women, people of color, other previously underrepresented communities, to be part of this.”

The bill “also invests in a STEM workforce for the future to ensure we have the talents to bring all these semiconductor climate manufacturing jobs back home where they belong,” said Rep. Sean Kasten (D-Il). He continued:

If I could share a personal story. About 13 years ago, I was building a tree house in my backyard. And as I was starting, the six-year-old neighborhood kid shows up behind me with a cute little hardhat and a tool belt and said “I’m here to help.” And my 2009 summer intern, as it were, is now a sophomore at the University of Illinois studying nuclear engineering.

The visa provisions in the bill allow an unlimited inflow of Chinese, Indian and other foreigners into U.S. nuclear engineering careers.

A few GOP legislators spoke against or filed amendments to block, the visa giveaways.

“We’ve got this new W visa [program] that is language in the bill, said Michael Burgess, R-Texas. “No language about protecting American jobs, but we’re going to give jobs to other people.”

His amendment says: “Strikes Sections 80301 and 80302 that create a new classification of ‘W’ visas for start-ups.”

“Amazingly, the Democrats blocked consideration of all my common sense amendments which would have prevented known Chinese spies from entering our nation,” said Rep. Vicky Hartzler (R-Il). “Stop [Chinese Communist Party] officials from taking advantage of our higher education system!”

Rep. Lance Gooden (R-Tx) filed an amendment that “Prohibits a new visa class from being created to maintain the numerical limitations on immigrant visas.”

GOP Rep. Troy Balderson (R-)h) filed an amendment that “stipulates that doctoral STEM graduates from institutions in the People’s Republic of China (PRC), Russia, or any designated State Sponsor of Terror are not eligible for cap-exempt STEM doctoral visas.”

But Democrats filed amendments to further expand labor migration into U.S. graduates middle-class jobs.

Democrats Rep. Kathy Manning (D-NC), Scott Peters (D-CA), Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL), and Ross added an amendment to expose American graduates to unending competion from the world’s graduates: “Adds graduates with advanced degrees in STEM who work in a critical industry to the exemption from numerical visa limitations for doctoral STEM graduates.”

Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-Va) opened a door for Korean graduates: “Creates an E-4 treaty trader visa category for up to 15,000 nationals of South Korea each fiscal year who are coming to the United States solely to perform specialty occupation services, subject to various requirements.”

Reps Ayana Pressley (D-Mass) and Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) posted an amendment to expand white-collar migration, which “allows dual intent for STEM doctoral students, allowing them to transition to a green card as provided under this bill without first needing to leave the country.”

Eleven legislators filed an amendment to further expand the inflow of H-2B seasonal laborers for the landscaping, restaurant, and resort businesses in their districts.

McCarthy was unsparing in his extensive criticism of the Democrats’ bill, which excluded GOP negotiators but added many unrelated provisions backed by Democrats. He said:

These policies would make our nation more vulnerable to Chinese espionage … there’s nothing in there that actually makes us stronger against China, only weaker. The actions of the [Democratic] majority tell you all you need to know about who they truly want to help: Themselves, their corporate allies [and] tee Chinese Communist Party.

Migration moves money, and since at least 1990, the federal government has tried to extract people from poor countries so they can serve U.S. investors as cheap workers, government-aided consumers, and high-density renters in the U.S. economy.

That economic strategy has no stopping point, and it is harmful to ordinary Americans because it cuts their career opportunities and their wages while it also raises their housing costs.

The strategy also curbs Americans’ productivity, shrinks their political clout, and widens the regional wealth gaps between the Democrats’ coastal states and the Republicans’ Heartland states. The economic policy radicalizes Americans’ democratic, compromise-promoting civic culture and allows wealthy elites to ignore despairing Americans at the bottom of society.

Unsurprisingly, a wide variety of little-publicized polls do show deep and broad opposition to labor migration and the inflow of temporary contract workers into jobs sought by young U.S. graduates.

The opposition is growinganti-establishmentmultiracialcross-sexnon-racistclass-basedbipartisanrationalpersistent, and recognizes the solidarity that Americans owe to each other.


Pelosi: U.S. Athletes Risk Angering ‘Ruthless’ Chinese Government if They ‘Speak Out’ Against Genocide

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) warned U.S. athletes attending the Genocide Games in Beijing that they risk the wrath of the “ruthless” Chinese government if they speak out against human rights abuses.

Speaking at Congressional-Executive Commission on China hearing, Nancy Pelosi said the United States has an “urgent moral duty to shine a bright light” on China’s human rights abuses.

“When the Winter Olympic Games begin tomorrow in Beijing, the Chinese once again will attempt to distract the world from a decades-long campaign of abuse and repression,” Pelosi said. “But the United States and the international community know the truth.

“While we fully support and will root for our athletes, we cannot and will not be silent on human rights in China,” Pelosi later added. “Over the next two weeks, it is our urgent moral duty to shine a bright light on the many human rights violations being perpetrated by the host nation.”

Pelosi also scolded the International Olympics Committee (IOC) for turning a blind eye to China’s human rights abuses.

“Now the IOC, aided by corporate sponsors, once again turns a blind eye with the 2022 Winter Olympics just to bolster their bottom line,” Pelosi said.

“If we do not speak out against human rights violations in China, because of commercial interests, we lose all moral authority to speak out against human rights violations anywhere,” she added.

Despite her moral outrage, Pelosi urged the U.S. athletes attending the games to compete rather than criticize the “ruthless” Chinese government.

“I would say to our athletes — you are there to compete,” Pelosi said. “Do not risk incurring the anger of the Chinese government because they are ruthless.”

“I know there is a temptation on the part of some to speak out while they are there; I respect that. But, I also worry about what the Chinese government might do to their reputations, to their families,” she added.

The hearing on Thursday was reportedly orchestrated “as a platform for Pelosi and several activists to highlight China’s human rights record, including reports of forced labor and acts of genocide against the Uyghur ethnic community in the Xinjiang region as well as suppression of democratic protests in Hong Kong and religious repression of Tibet’s Buddhists,” according to Bloomberg News. Representative Jim McGovern, the Democrat in charge of the committee, said that “no athlete” would compete in a genocidal country if “given a choice.”

“If given a choice, I believe no athlete would want to compete in a country committing genocide and crimes against humanity. But that is what they are forced to do because of the feckless IOC and its corporate sponsors,” he said.

  • How the husband of Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), who chaired the Senate Intelligence Committee, was the part owner of a Chinese firm that allegedly sold computers with spyware chips to the U.S. military

Here’s a weird fact: All Chinese visitors to American might be spies

With increasing frequency, we’re encountering news stories regarding the allegedly unfair suspicion that Chinese visitors to the United States, be they students or business people, are engaged in espionage. The narrative underlying these stories is that this suspicion is grounded in racism. At the same time, we are treated to reports about myriad students, business people, and government employees pleading guilty to charges of espionage against the United States. It turns out that there’s less racism and more reality to the charges than one might think.

For those of us who genuinely like and respect Asians, whether those born here or those visiting from China, this is a most unhappy state of affairs. We don’t want Asians to be the victims of mindless prejudice and we hate to see people falsely charged (especially if they’re victims of sloppy and even unethical work by the FBI).

But facts are facts, and here are two:

(1) No Chinese citizen departs that country and comes to America except with the express permission of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

(2) All Chinese citizens are subject to article seven of the Chinese National Intelligence Law (Go ahead; Duck Duck Go it; multiple hits will come right up) by which every Chinese citizen is legally obligated to “support national intelligence work.”

Image: Asian man taking a photograph by pressfoto. Freepik license.

The practice effect of this law means that bright-eyed students in the back row and businessmen across the table are “statutory spies.” Perhaps they’re not spying at the moment but, at least theoretically, they are obliged to spy should the CCP request it.

Moreover, in the event a Chinese citizen is reluctant to cooperate against the American host, you can be sure that CCP operatives know where that person’s spouse, parents, grandparents, and other family members reside in China. The CCP operatives don’t even need to say “Nice family you have in China.” Chinese citizens know that so it goes without saying.

None of this is meant to say that each and every Chinese visitor is a spy. But it is to say that the CCP has the means to press each and every Chinese visitor into espionage.



Media's turn on investigating Hunter Biden an important development: Schweizer

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vj1eR2BGnRM


Schweizer: NYT’s ‘Turn’ on Biden Family ‘an Important Development’

1:27

Breitbart News senior contributor Peter Schweizer, author of Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Winreacted to The New York Times suing the State Department for access to Hunter Biden’s emails.

Schweizer told FNC’s “Fox & Friends” that the media’s “turn” on President Joe Biden and his family’s overseas dealings “is an important development.” He added the media see “Biden is struggling as president” and know he is likely on his way out.

“I think a lot of these newsrooms, you had management that did not want to cover these stories. They were sort of putting their fingers on the scale as far as politics are concerned,” Schweizer outlined. “And I honestly think part of the calculation is, Steve, that they see that Joe Biden is struggling as president. He is probably not going to be here for very long. I think this represents a turn, as it were, as far as some of the news publications’ management is concerned.”

“[I] think this is an important development,” he added. “I wish they were covering the China relationships with the Bidens. This involves Romania. But still, it’s an important story, and it speaks to the pattern of corruption that exists in the Biden family as it relates to these overseas dealings.”

Peter Schweizer’s ‘Red-Handed’ Hits #1 on New York Times Bestseller List

Peter Schweizer’s blockbuster new book Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win hit number one on the New York Times bestseller list, one week after its release by HarperCollins.

This is the third consecutive New York Times #1 bestseller for Schweizer, following his 2020 book Profile in Corruption and 2019’s Secret EmpiresRed-Handed has also premiered at number one on USA Today’s bestseller list and has topped the charts at Amazon.

Schweizer, whose past books have sparked an FBI investigation and exposed congressional insider trading that spearheaded groundbreaking legislation, has called the revelations in Red-Handed the “scariest” of his quarter-century career investigating corruption.

As the book’s subtitle states, Red-Handed exposes the vast complicity of American elites – from politicians to diplomats to business, tech, and entertainment tycoons – who have enriched themselves by advancing the interests of China’s communist regime.

Schweizer, who is the president of the nonpartisan Government Accountability Institute (GAI) and a Breitbart News senior contributor, spent over a year conducting the research for Red-Handed with his team of forensic investigators at GAI, combing through a trove of financial and corporate records. The book contains 1,093 endnotes and 81 pages of source material with no off-the-record sources, making it easier for federal law enforcement and U.S. intelligence services to track down the book’s bombshell revelations.

Indeed, Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) and Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) have already called for Attorney General Merrick Garland to appoint a Special Counsel to investigate the revelations in Red-Handed concerning President Joe Biden’s family members’ business dealings with individuals with direct ties to the highest levels of China’s spy apparatus. The New York Post’s editorial board echoed these calls with an op-ed on Wednesday headlined, “Appoint a special counsel on Hunter Biden—now.”

Red-Handed’s revelations thus far include:

  • How the Biden family scored $31 million from five deals in China, all with individuals with direct ties to the Chinese spy apparatus
  • How a Chinese global energy company linked to a Chinese intelligence operation sent close to $6 million to Hunter Biden in 2017

Schweizer’s track record investigating both Republicans and Democrats is well-established, winning him a unique mix of bipartisan praise for his investigative work from both the left and the right. After the release of Schweizer’s bestselling Clinton Cash, liberal columnist Eleanor Clift called Schweizer “an equal-opportunity investigator, snaring Republicans as well as Democrats.” Clift added: “It’s a mistake for the Clinton campaign to write off conservative author Peter Schweizer as a right-wing hack. It won’t work, and it’s not true.” Similarly, Harvard Law School Professor Lawrence Lessing wrote that “on any fair reading, the pattern of behavior that Schweizer has charged is corruption.”

Schweizer is also the author of Throw Them All Out, which, according to left-leaning Slate, was “the book that started the STOCK Act stampede.” The bipartisan STOCK Act (Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge) banned insider trading by members of Congress and was signed into law by President Barack Obama on April 4, 2012. The legislation received overwhelming support from both parties. One of the main figures featured in Schweizer’s Throw Them All Out, then-chairman of the House Financial Services Committee Spencer Bachus (R-AL), announced he would not seek reelection after the book’s reporting. CBS’s 60 Minutes did an investigative report on Schweizer’s revelations that won them the Joan Shorenstein Barone Award for excellence in Washington-based journalism.

Exclusive — Sen. Marsha Blackburn Calls for Special Counsel to Investigate Biden Family China Business Dealings

Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) told Breitbart News on Monday evening that she thinks Attorney General Merrick Garland must appoint a Special Counsel to investigate President Joe Biden’s family members’ dealings with the Chinese Communist Party.

“I think what we know or what we can surmise by looking at all of this is that it is appropriate and the Attorney General should appoint a special counsel to investigate what has happened with Biden Incorporated and Hunter Biden, James Biden, Joe Biden, and their business dealings with Communist China and the Chinese Communist Party,” Blackburn said in an interview Monday night.

Blackburn’s interview came after Breitbart News on Sunday evening published a 2019 document from the U.S. Attorney’s office in Delaware showing that the IRS, as part of a criminal investigation into the  president’s son, Hunter Biden, subpoenaed JPMorgan Chase Bank for financial records of Hunter Biden, the president’s brother James Biden, their associates Devon Archer and Eric Schwerin, and a number of business entities with which they were involved.

From the report:

A criminal IRS investigation into Hunter Biden — President Biden’s son — appears to have convened a grand jury as far back as May 2019, a confidential subpoena served to JPMorgan Chase bank reveals. The subpoena also seeks bank records of James Biden, the president’s brother, which appears to be the first time another Biden family member has surfaced in connection with the investigation.

The document, obtained by Breitbart News, specifically demands information on related transactions between JPMorgan Chase Bank, which the document calls “correspondent bank,” and the Bank of China, which the document calls the “originating or beneficiary bank.”

Blackburn said these subpoena documents, combined with revelations in Breitbart News senior contributor and Government Accountability Institute president Peter Schweizer’s book Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win, and so much more, are beginning to paint a bigger picture about the Biden family. She said these new revelations, after ones that came out via Hunter Biden’s laptop in the New York Post in the lead-up to the 2020 election and from leaked emails from former Hunter Biden associate Bevan Cooney, among other sources, began showing a snapshot of how the Bidens operated.

“The picture that appears to be coming together is that Biden Incorporated has focused on dealing with these foreign entities, and we see Hunter Biden as more or less a centerpiece of this, and then you have Joe and James Biden and other families who you would think must be involved with this via Biden Incorporated,” Blackburn said. “It is troublesome, it is worrisome, this is not good for the country. This is why we need to move forward with a Special Counsel. We need to get a Special Counsel appointed and investigate exactly what happened with these business dealings.”

Blackburn, a member of the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee, told Breitbart News that she has reviewed the documents published in the Breitbart News report and thinks that President Biden “owes an explanation” to the public about all of this—but that she believes he will be unable to do so and therefore the appointment of a Special Counsel is necessary.

“As I have looked at your story and the documents that are there, I feel that the president owes an explanation, but we know that that would be difficult to come by, so it seems appropriate a special counsel be appointed to get to the bottom of what happened with these business dealings,” Blackburn said. “We know that Hunter Biden flew to China on Air Force Two with his father for an official visit. We know that he went forward with meetings that he did not want the Secret Service to accompany him to those meetings. So, there should be, for the good of the American people and for answering these questions, there should be a special counsel who would review this, and if this investigation is still ongoing, we would hope that we would hear from the grand jury at some point as to the information they have and the next steps that they would take.”

In addition to the named individuals in the document, and the transactions and banks in question, including the Bank of China, as Breitbart News reported late Sunday, the document also lists out several business names in the subpoena: Owasco, Skaneateles, RSP Holdings, RSP Investments, RSTP II Alpha, RSTP II Bravo, Seneca Global Advisors, Aqaba International, Rosemont Seneca, Burisma Holdings, Bohai Harvest RST Shanghai Equity, Robinson Walker, Hudson West, European Energy and Infras Group Limited, and Bladen Enterprises Limited.

Asked about all these entities being listed by federal authorities in one place in this grand jury subpoena document, Blackburn told Breitbart News she believes this criminal investigation is complex and ongoing.

“It appears that they have enough information that they moved forward with the subpoena to JPMorgan Chase, and that you would think this is still an ongoing and active investigation,” Blackburn said. “Looking at all of the information that has now been compiled into one place would lead me to think the appropriate step is for the AG to appoint a special counsel to investigate these business dealings because whether you look at what has transpired with Communist China, with Russia, Burisma that was located there in Ukraine, and whatever else may be involved with this, it is important to get to the bottom of this. I think you look at the fact that Joe and Hunter Biden have been intertwined in these business deals. You’ve got photographic evidence of Joe Biden attending some of Hunter’s events. You want to get to the bottom of what has happened, shaded by these business deals, and how they have profited off of these business deals and what the continuing affiliation from Hunter Biden or from James Biden is on some of these foreign entities at this point.”

In addition to her call for Garland to appoint a Special Counsel, she expects Garland to face serious questions from the Senate Judiciary Committee—especially if Republicans retake the Senate majority. But Blackburn wants Americans to see action now, and not have to wait until next year, so she argues the appropriate next step before voters weigh in in the upcoming midterm elections is for Garland to appoint a Special Counsel now.

“AG Garland comes before us regularly for hearings and review and it would be appropriate he would be questioned on this,” Blackburn said. “Even before that, without waiting until we get the majority back and waiting until we get the gavel, it would be important that we get some clarity around this situation. This is a very serious issue. When you look at the amount of scrutiny that was placed on President Trump and his family and the accusations that turned out to be misinformation with all of that about Russia, it was not right. Here, you have these allegations about Hunter Biden and Biden Incorporated. Now, James Biden is pulled into that. Answers should be forthcoming sooner rather than later. If we don’t get them, then absolutely. It would be completely appropriate for the Senate Judiciary Committee to move forward with hearings delving into the issue of what actually has transpired around these interactions that Hunter Biden and Biden Incorporated have had with these different foreign entities.”

Blackburn also said that the contrast of these documents alongside the fact Biden has a complete lack of action on holding China accountable is “unsettling.”

“When you read through the documents, and I’m pleased you all were able to put those up, but when you read through these and you realize that they have had these interactions with the Bank of China, then of course that is troubling,” Blackburn said. “What are some of the things that have really frustrated the American people this year? Joe Biden has not held China to account for Covid-19. Covid is something that has cost hundreds of thousands of people lives and livelihoods. It has cost the economy trillions of dollars. It has caused mental health issues for children and teens and China has not been held to account for that. You look at this week with the Olympics starting and our athletes still going to the Olympics and the only thing that President Biden did was a diplomatic boycott. You look at issues that are there around trade. You look at the genocide being carried out on the Uyghur Muslims. You look at the treatment of the Hong Kong freedom fighters, the Tibetans, the Mongolians, and then you look at the participation of some of the U.S. companies with China and also the Chinese Communist Party that has a standing in many of those Chinese commercial entities and you have say ‘hey wait a minute, the coziness that is there is quite unsettling and it is not good for the country, it is not good for the cause of freedom, and this is something that needs to be addressed promptly.’”

Blackburn has been hammering China for a long time, and warning for years about the rise of the Chinese Communist Party. She said the current administration seems content watching America decline and China rise.

“I’ve been on the China issue now for years and years and years, beating this drum repeatedly,” Blackburn said. “Whether it was intellectual property theft, whether it was mistreatment of U.S. corporate entities and small and mid-sized businesses that were doing business in China, whether it was our over-reliance on China manufacturing for our critical supply chains, whether it was China pushing forward with these Confucius Institutes and Confucius classrooms and trying to inject itself into the Sister Cities program, whether it is the Belt and Road Initiative or debt diplomacy or worries about competition or worry about China with its blue water navy, worries about China in its part in the new ‘Axis of Evil’ along with Russia and Iran and North Korea, China is intent on global domination by the time we get to the midpoint of this century. We cannot let that happen. So, turning our focus to how we strengthen our country and how we fight back on people who do not wish us well is going to be an absolute imperative because we, the American people, like America the exceptional and the extraordinary for all of our citizens. Right now, we have an administration and a president who seem to be content with America the ordinary.”

 I’d be inclined to disagree with Don except for one thing: Biden has proven to be a very adept criminal mastermind. For decades, he has funneled millions of dollars to his children and siblings and, especially, to his debauched, deviant son, Hunter.  

                                                    ANDREA WIDBURG

The segment ends with an assertion that Joe Biden has been compromised, and that’s exactly correct. There hasn’t been a more China-friendly politician in the last 30 years than Biden.

                                                            TUCKER CARLSON

The book is a devastating chronicle of political corruption. From Ukraine to Mexico to China, Hunter Biden's private correspondence shows how he and his family leveraged his father's position to win high-paying, low-work gigs with shady foreign actors—and how Joe's official actions at times directly benefited his family's financial backers. 

                                    ALANA GOODMAN


The fact that Hunter's market value was derived from his father's position seemed to be a source of resentment for the younger Biden, even as he continued to cash in on the name. Hunter complained in texts to his daughter that he had financially supported the Biden clan for three decades and that "pop" takes a cut of "half [my] salary." Financia records and correspondence reported on by Devine indicate that money from Hunter's business accounts was used to cover Joe's AT&T bill and home maintenance expenses and that a portion of at least one major China deal was earmarked for the elder Biden.

Belt and Road Biden: How Hunter Helped China’s Hegemonic Scheme to Overtake the U.S.

The business relationships between President Joe Biden’s son Hunter and Chinese Communist Party elites are explored in Peter Schweizer’s new book Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win. Some of Hunter’s Chinese deals were helpful to the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), China’s colonialist scheme for buying influence across the Third World and luring poor nations into taking loans from Chinese banks they can never repay.

BRI first appears early in Red-Handed with Hunter Biden’s effort to use Chinese money to buy the national railroad of Greece. Hunter’s partner in this endeavor was the China Open Shipping Corporation (COSCO), a firm owned by the Communist government and closely linked to the People’s Liberation Army (PLA).

China hoped to push BRI’s influence into the heart of Europe and develop a network of ports, picturesquely described as a “string of pearls,” that could be used by the PLA to challenge American naval power in the Atlantic. Through COSCO, the Chinese government offered Hunter an incredible sweetheart deal because it wanted to take advantage of his personal connections in Greece. 

Fortunately for the free world, Hunter and his Chinese partners were outbid by the Italian national railroad company, but Belt and Road is still tirelessly hunting for ways to penetrate Europe more deeply. In 2021, the European Union belatedly began pushing back with its own infrastructure program, “Global Gateway.” 

Hunter’s most notorious link to BRI – notorious, that is, for everyone except the mainstream media reporters who adamantly refuse to investigate any of this stuff – was through CEFC China Energy, a conglomerate headed by the once-famous but now-vanished young tycoon Ye Jianming. 

The documents discovered on Hunter’s laptop – a story major media outlets and social media companies worked furiously to suppress during the 2020 election — included information linking Biden’s son to the CEFC conglomerate, including the email that said ten percent of one CEFC venture would be “held by H for the big guy,” most likely a reference to Joe Biden himself.

CEFC threw millions of dollars at Hunter, despite his lack of relevant skills or experience for the positions he nominally held in the company’s endeavors. This created friction with professional money manager Tony Bobulinski, who would eventually become a whistleblower — only to be disappeared by Biden-friendly U.S. media outlets almost as thoroughly as the Chinese Communist Party made Ye Jianming disappear. 

Red-Handed quotes emails from Hunter that indicate he knew the company was linked to the Chinese state and PLA intelligence. For that matter, the book points out that CEFC made no great secret of its mission to serve “China’s national energy strategy,” and that mission included buying assets in Europe and the United States. Bobulinski bluntly told Hunter to stay away from CEFC, but his warnings were ignored.

CEFC wasn’t just an opportunistic business enterprise making big bucks from Chinese military contracts. Red-Handed notes one of the company’s analysts wrote a belligerent editorial for Chinese state media in 2011 advocating the use of military force to drive Western oil and gas companies out of the South China Sea.

The Obama administration — in which Hunter’s father was vice-president — was well aware of BRI’s role in China’s effort to supplant American influence around the world. As an added dollop of evil, BRI projects have more recently been accused of using forced labor. It would be very difficult to make the case that Hunter had no idea who he was teaming up with.

CEFC’s plan to sink Belt and Road tentacles deep into the American energy industry with Hunter Biden’s help went bust after the FBI arrested Ye Jianming’s henchman Patrick Ho on bribery charges in late 2017. 

In a final and comically obvious effort to purchase the Biden family’s political influence, CEFC hired Hunter as one of Ho’s defense lawyers, even though Hunter did not have criminal defense law on his resume. Hunter admiringly referred to his client as “the f**cking spy chief of China” in a recorded phone call discovered on his Laptop From Hell.

Red-Handed takes pains to describe how plenty of Republican politicians have been drawn into the orbit of Belt and Road as well. BRI has trillions of dollars to spend and loan. It needs to buy political influence to lubricate its big-money deals. 

BRI is so huge that Americans and Europeans who should know better convince themselves to overlook BRI’s long-term geopolitical goals so they can make deals with Chinese state firms — or take jobs lobbying for BRI’s interests after they leave government offices.

In Greece, BRI needed Hunter Biden to make introductions between Chinese state enterprises and influential Greeks. In America, BRI needed Hunter’s connections to assuage concerns about selling American assets to Chinese state enterprises with military connections. In all cases, BRI operatives were willing to spend a lot of money to buy the Biden family name.

Trump on ‘Red-Handed’: ‘Biden Family Collected over $31M from Entities Linked to CCP’

Former President Donald J. Trump called Peter Schweizer’s new book, Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win, “terrific” and highlighted the bombshell revelation that the Biden family received $31 million from five deals in China that were conducted with individuals closely tied to Chinese intelligence. 

While speaking at the Save America Rally in Conroe, Texas, on Saturday night, Trump lauded Schweizer’s investigative work in Red-Handed:

A really great new book by Peter Schweizer, which is a terrific book, actually a sad book, very sad because of what it says and represents – just reported that the Biden family has collected over $31 million from entities linked to the Chinese Communist Party – $31 million. 

Trump continued:

That’s in addition to the $83,000 a month from the Ukrainian energy company, which a lot of people said was very corrupt, the millions from the mayor of Moscow’s wife – millions, $3.5 million. What was that for? I really don’t know. Remember the laptop from hell when they found it? What did they say? ‘The Russians did it.’ Oh, the Russians did it, remember that? That turned out to be like everything else, totally false. Can you imagine when he realized that his laptop from hell was missing? And that they found it?

Trump went on to highlight the onslaught of “fake scandals” he faced as president at the hands of “radical Democrats.” He asked:

The radical Democrats spent years investigating fake scandals: the Mueller hoax, impeachment hoax number one, impeachment hoax number two, the unselect committee on January 6 – how bout that committee? And the outrageous civil and criminal harassment in New York and Atlanta of a person known as Donald Trump. Have you ever heard of him?

He insisted that Republicans will investigate the “Biden corruption” once they gain control of Congress. 

“And Biden has the real scandals, and rest assured when Republicans retake Congress the Biden corruption will be investigated and exposed by Congress,” the 45th president said.

The Trump-endorsed book, Red-Handed, skyrocketed “to the #1 bestseller spot on both Barnes & Noble and Amazon across all book categories and genres” on the day of its release, Breitbart News reported. Schweizer, a senior contributor to Breitbart News and the president of the Government Accountability Institute (GAI), is also the bestselling author of Profiles in Corruption, Clinton Cash, and Secret Empires.

I’d be inclined to disagree with Don except for one thing: Biden has proven to be a very adept criminal mastermind. For decades, he has funneled millions of dollars to his children and siblings and, especially, to his debauched, deviant son, Hunter.

US Attorney Doc: IRS Issued Grand Jury Subpoena to JPMorgan for Hunter, James Biden Bank Records In Probe into Biden Family’s China Connections

A criminal IRS investigation into Hunter Biden — President Biden’s son — appears to have convened a grand jury as far back as May 2019, a confidential subpoena served to JPMorgan Chase bank reveals. The subpoena also seeks bank records of James Biden, the president’s brother, which appears to be the first time another Biden family member has surfaced in connection with the investigation.

The document, obtained by Breitbart News, specifically demands information on related transactions between JPMorgan Chase Bank, which the document calls “correspondent bank,” and the Bank of China, which the document calls the “originating or beneficiary bank.”

The document appears to show that as President Biden was launching his campaign that spring, federal prosecutors in the U.S. Attorney’s office in Delaware had impaneled a grand jury and were demanding the production of bank records relating to Hunter and James Biden, as well as two of their business associates Devon Archer and Eric Schwerin.

While it has been reported that subpoenas were issued in a Hunter Biden criminal probe from federal investigators, the level of detail this document contains has never been reported.

The document, dated May 20, 2019, is a subpoena compelling JPMorgan Chase bank to appear in U.S. District Court in Delaware. “YOU ARE COMMANDED to appear in this United States district court at the time, date, and place to testify before the court’s grand jury,” the document — a subpoena to JPMorgan Chase Bank’s subpoena processing office based in Indianapolis — says. “When you arrive, you must remain at the court until a judge or a court officer allows you to leave.”

The document lists a courtroom in the J. Caleb Boggs Federal Building in Wilmington, Delaware, as the location that JPMorgan Chase Bank officials were compelled to appear and commands a response by June 25, 2019.

“You must also bring with you the following documents, electronically stored information, or objects” the document continues, then pointing to “Attachment A” which lists out exactly what the mega-bank needed to provide to the court.

“Attachment A” lists out the following instruction to the bank’s compliance officials: “PRODUCE THE FOLLOWING: All records, documents, and accounts pertaining to all financial/banking transactions with the following known name(s), and/or accounts. However, when conducting your search, please do not limit your scope to only the known account(s) listed below; unknown, associated, signatory, or closed accounts are also requested.”

The specific individuals named by the subpoena are Robert Hunter Biden, James Biden, Devon Archer, and Eric Schwerin.

Business names listed out by the subpoena are: Owasco, Skaneateles, RSP Holdings, RSP Investments, RSTP II Alpha, RSTP II Bravo, Seneca Global Advisors, Aqaba International, Rosemont Seneca, Burisma Holdings, Bohai Harvest RST Shanghai Equity, Robinson Walker, Hudson West, European Energy and Infras Group Limited, Bladen Enterprises Limited.

The document specifically states multiple times: “Do not disclose the existence of this subpoena to the individual or any third party.”

An accompanying letter David C. Weiss, the U.S. Attorney for the District of Delaware, to JPMorgan Chase Bank officials specifies that federal law “makes it a federal crime for ‘an officer of a financial institution’ to notify either ‘directly or indirectly…. (A) a customer of that financial institution whose records are sought by a grand jury subpoena; or (B) any other person named in that subpoena about the existence or contents of that subpoena or information that has been furnished to the grand jury in response to that subpoena [.]’”

Hunter Biden revealed in a statement in December, 2020, just following the presidential election, that he was under federal investigation for possible tax fraud. At the time it was reported by Fox News and CNN that the investigation began in 2018 and was looking into whether Hunter and his business associates violated tax and money laundering laws. Reporting by CNN at the time said the probe was focused on Hunter’s engagements in China and other countries and transactions with “people who posed counterintelligence concerns.”

The probe had been put on hold as the presidential race ramped up, but had allegedly resumed after all ballots were cast.

Weiss paused the investigation, deciding not to seek search warrants or issue grand jury subpoenas, to not “alert the public to the existence of the case in the middle of a presidential election,” according to report by Politico in July, 2021.

The federal investigation into Hunter’s “tax affairs” was reported by Fox News to have been moving forward in March, 2021, and that the U.S. Attorney’s office in Delaware had “not heard from the White House,” at the time.

Hunter Biden revealed in an interview with CBS in April, 2021, that his lawyers were not working on a plea deal in the case. “I am absolutely certain that what we’re doing is being completely cooperative with whoever is asking from any authority whatsoever,” he added at the time.

The document was obtained first by former White House official Garrett Ziegler, who is a former associate director in Peter Navarro’s Office of Trade and Manufacturing Policy in the White House, serving from 2019-2021, who provided it to Breitbart News. Following his time at the White House, Ziegler established Marco Polo, a nonprofit research group “exposing corruption and blackmail,” and has been conducting a forensic review combined with extra independent investigation into Hunter Biden’s laptop.

“This wide-ranging grand jury subpoena suggests that Joe’s son and brother received transfers from an account with the Bank of China. The question that remains is why Bill Barr directly intervened to ensure that the U.S. Attorney in Delaware’s investigation into Joe’s family was kept from the public for over 17 months until after the election, as previous reporting has confirmed. David Weiss and Bill Barr—or someone with a conscience inside the Justice Department—should answer that question for the American people,” Ziegler said in a statement to Breitbart News.

The aforementioned Politico story suggests Weiss took steps to keep his investigation from going public in 2019 because he did not want it coming out in the middle of an election, and a subsequent Wall Street Journal piece in December 2020 suggests that Barr did the same.

It is unclear if JPMorgan Chase Bank cooperated with this subpoena. It is worth noting that the bank’s outside counsel firm Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP announced it hired former U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch shortly after receiving this subpoena. It is unclear if Lynch had any involvement on this specific matter, however, she has worked on similar matters involving JPMorgan Chase Bank compliance.

It is also unclear where this criminal investigation stands.

Joe Biden, enemy of America

From the moment Joe Biden stepped into the Oval Office as president it became clear that he stole the job in order to destroy America from within. He stopped the construction of the Keystone Pipeline on day one, costing thousands of good paying jobs.  He stopped the construction of the southern border wall, costing more jobs and leaving millions of dollars’ worth of equipment rotting in the desert.  

Biden would not even let Texas use the construction materials themselves; any wall would impede the Biden plan to import over two million migrants from around the world, to be given funds and to spread them throughout the nation into unsuspecting cities.  

The Democrats voted unanimously that these illegal invaders would not be required to be vaccinated or even tested for Covid.  That should tell us everything we need to know about how seriously the left really takes this phony pandemic.  They know it is phony because it’s wirked for their advantage from the outset.  They had to do something to derail President Trump.

So, with a stroke of Biden’s pen, the energy independence Trump had achieved was gone.  Biden removed Trump’s sanctions on the Nord Stream pipeline, making Germany now dependent on Russia for gas and making Russia infinitely wealthier!  What a colossally stupid thing to have done.  Natural gas prices for Americans have doubled.  Fuel gas prices have gone up by at least forty per cent.  Biden and his DOJ are cancelling other pipelines and oil leases on federal land and offshore.  This is allegedly in the name of the environment but that it is a lie.  It is to bring the middle and working classes to their knees.  This administration wants runaway inflation, the better to punish the deplorables, to make them more compliant. 

Biden’s gross manipulation of Covid fear porn is beyond egregious.  The more we learn about the horrific dangers from the vaccines, the more the doctors trying to inform the public are suppressed, censored and defamed, the more the administration, the media and the CDC double down on the lies, the lie that anyone under the age of twenty-five or thirty ever needed the vaccine in the first place.  But the last thing the Biden administration wants is an informed public.  Censorship is their new religion.

The public should not be able to discern that Biden’s energy and vax mandate policies have caused the supply chain problems that have left grocery shelves around the nation empty of some essentials.  The totally useless Pete Buttigieg is by now beyond a joke. His big idea?  Total surveillance via speed cameras because “they are less racially biased than cops,” and “to prevent potholes?!”   

As for the supply chain disaster, he hasn’t a clue about that.  It hasn’t occurred to him that the vax mandates are at the root of our air traffic problems, not to mention sidelining thousands of truckers.  The man is an embarrassment, just as Energy Secretary, the corrupt Jennifer Granholm is clueless and DHS Sec. Alejandro Mayorakas is a mousy little coward who should have been sacked on day two.  He cowered in the corner the other day while Border Patrol agents expressed their utter frustration at the non-stop invasion of our southern border. 

As those Border Patrol and ICE agents can attest, Biden is now a full partner in collusion with the drug and human traffickers that are the cartels.  In fact, Biden is probably, it’s fair to say, the largest sex and human trafficker on the planet right now.  When will we learn to where how many thousands of unaccompanied children have been shipped and to whose “care?”  

The volume of fentanyl flowing into the US has gone up 300% as have overdose deaths in this country.  In short, the Biden presidency is a terrible blight upon America.  

This President has done more damage thus far than any foreign enemy has ever done in our nation’s history.  The insane withdrawal from Afghanistan made of fool of the US throughout the world and pleased China, Russia and Iran mightily.  Biden is wholly responsible for the deaths of those thirteen of our young troops and an innocent family of ten that he droned in Afghanistan as the entire project went belly up.  

He is responsible for the forced wokery and evisceration of our military, first by kicking out soldiers who were pro-American patriots and then for kicking out soldiers who wisely refused the vaccines.  There is mounting evidence that the vaccines interfere with the body’s natural immune system.  The record of vaccine damage among the military is catastrophic and the Biden mandates are to blame. 

None of the available vaccines were fully or properly tested, which is why Pfizer wanted to delay the release of its data for seventy-five years.  The trials were rushed and emergency authorized by the FDA illegally.  No vaccine is to be authorized if there are available therapeutics, which they were and are.  Big pharma lied, the FDA lied, and the CDC lied.  The vaccine roll-out is part of a get-fabulously-rich scheme of Fauci and his cohorts in those and other bureaucratic institutions, all of which have been hopelessly politicized by the left.  Biden is not above using them all in his drive to ruin America. 

Biden has refused to demand information from China on the origins of the virus, but most real scientists agree it was created in a lab and did not occur naturally in nature.  Still, Pelosi has resisted holding hearings on the origin and Biden can’t bring himself to ask Xi.  Oh, he says he did and that XI said no.  

Biden has the strength and influence of a wet dishrag.  Now he is actively fomenting war between Russia and Ukraine for his own purposes; he thinks it makes him look tough when in fact it just makes him look stupid.  His dog wagging has already cost Ukraine ‘s economy dearly.

Zelensky has angrily told Biden to knock it off.  But Biden and his cabinet of hawks are champing at the bit for a war somewhere, anywhere.  If they think the public is behind them, they are oh, so sadly mistaken.  Just in case the Russia-Ukraine thing doesn’t work out, he’s giving in to Iran, letting them get the nukes they crave.  That should make for an interesting scenario.  

Biden is so out of it that he seems to think he’s playing at war games rather than with actual people and nations.  China, Russia and Iran must each be having grand laughs at our expense.  

Thanks to this wholly incompetent and illegitimate President and his equally incompetent inner circle and cabinet, America is a sitting duck, vulnerable to all manner of attack from enemies that Biden has emboldened and who are gleefully licking their chops at this moment, at the prospect of bringing America low. 

Arrogance, ignorance, and incompetence. Not a pretty cocktail of personality traits in the best of situations. No sirree. Not a pretty cocktail in an office-mate and not a pretty cocktail in a head of state. In fact, in a leader, it's a lethal cocktail.  Graydon Carter

Biden officials surprised and 'exasperated' to find that Border Patrol agents aren't applauding them

After demonizing Border Patrol agents and nullifying legal border enforcement as a profession, Biden officials were surprised and 'exasperated' to find that Border Patrol agents weren't applauding them.

That was what Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and Border Patrol chief Raul Ortiz found when they decided to visit Border Patrol stations in Laredo, Texas, and Yuma, Arizona, supposedly to take the temperature of the troops at the sharp end of the mighty border surges.

Videos leaked out of the meetings and they did not go well.

Here's the latest one, which the Washington Examiner got hold of:

Here's a snippet:

"We don't give up. We stay focused. We continue to do the job and the mission we all signed up for. We all raised our hand," Ortiz said.

Among the group of agents in attendance, people could be heard getting restless, saying, "It's kind of hard to say that," with another retorting "to defend the Constitution."

"It's not hard to say that," Ortiz fired back, raising his voice. "It may be hard for you to say it, but I've been doing this for 31 years. It's not hard for me to say it. Every day, I wake up, and I'm committed to this organization, and I'm committed to each one of y'all," he continued, talking over someone in the crowd.

The crowd shot back with claims that the policies don't match the rhetoric. One appeared to complain about the release of criminals into the country.

Ortiz said the agents were getting too focused on the policies and politics of the administration rather than the mission of getting drugs and criminals out of the country.

"You're getting bogged down in the policies and the politics," an increasingly frustrated Ortiz said.

One person claimed they can't even say "illegal aliens," to which Ortiz spat back that he "just said it. See? Is anything going to happen to you?"

"Why are you so caught up in the semantics, right? There's a mission out there to be had guys," Ortiz continued. "We can sit here and argue until we're blue in the face. I've been doing this job as long as y'all."

"That's a problem," one of the crowd said.

Who is Ortiz? Not a Democrat political operative, as might be expected, but kind of a zombie Border Patrol agent, a man who spent many years with the Border Patrol out in the badlands, got promoted by President Trump to deputy, and then took the top spot after Biden forced the previous Border Patrol chief, Rodney Scott, out last August. Get-along, go-along Ortiz got the job instead and now serves to defend the Biden administration, rather than the men in the field, which is apparently what Biden requires for that job at the top. It's pretty creepy. He had been apparently a good man, and now he's Biden's shill. Border Patrol complaints about policy to him are now 'griping.'

Mayorkas fared even worse at a meeting with agents in Yuma a couple of days earlier.

According to Julio Rosas at Townhall, who got hold of a leaked audio:

"The job has not gotten any easier over the last few months and it was very, very difficult throughout 2021. I know apprehending families and kids is not what you signed up to do. And now we got a composition that is changing even more with Cubans, Venezuelans, Nicaraguans, and the like, it just gets more difficult," Mayorkas said in the recording.

Mayorkas said DHS is trying to work with the Mexican government to stop the flow of immigrants before they reach the U.S. border.

"I know the policies of this administration are not particularly popular with U.S. Customs and Border Protection, but that's the reality and let's see what we can do within that framework," Mayorkas added.

An agent pressed Mayorkas on how DHS can reconcile saying border security is the main mission for Border Patrol, yet agents are unable to patrol the border due to the policies the Biden administration has in place. Border Patrol agents are being utilized to process the thousands of illegal immigrants.

Mayorkas said he appreciated "the candor" and explained he is working to ensure agents have the personnel, funding, and equipment they need to do their job. The agent replied they have been hearing that answer for years.

The agent asking that then turned his back on Mayorkas, and Mayorkas tried to assure him that he was a mean prosecutor by trade, which doesn't sound as ferocious in the era of Soros D.A.s, and the corrupt administration of Kamala Harris during her attorney general days in California, where Mayorkas worked.

It's tough stuff. And it ought to be a wakeup call to these Biden officials that they've got a workforce that sounds like it wants to go on strike, That's actually something they ought to do, given that the Bidenites have been demonizing them as they do their jobs on horse-mounted patrols in hellhole rugged terrain brimming with rattlesnakes, or else amid toxic waste from Mexico south of San Diego. Border defense consists of running from fence hole to fence hole in the border in hellhole terrain, instead of having the security of a fence from which to watch for interlopers. It consists of cartel drug and human smugglers shooting at agents or throwing things, injuring and killing some. It consists of changing diapers and rescuing migrants from bad situations they put themselves in, knowing that the Border Patrol is always there to rescue them and get them on the U.S. side where they are no longer being expelled. It means subjecting Border Patrol agents to COVID, leprosy, scabies, tuberculosis, and a whole host of other diseases the migrants bring with them. It means serving as a taxi, ferry, and concierge at the service of Mexico's notorious cartels and human smuggling rackets, to get illegals to their destinations of choice instead of expelling them to back where they came from in the interest of defending U.S. law. And as one agent said, it's about releasing some of the vilest criminals on earth into the U.S. population to do what they will.

This doesn't sound like the job they signed up for, let alone a job anyone would want. It's effectively the nullification of the Border Patrol itself, meaning, the agents are supposed to focus on their shiny new equipment Mayorkas says he's bringing them instead, if not retire at their desks and maybe wait for the next president. Sound like a purposeful existence?

Mayorkas said he's all in for no-holds-barred conversations with the agents. But it's strange that he (and Ortiz) is so surprised and 'exasperated' at the outcome. How could they have been surprised? What more likely happened is that they wanted to gauge the sentiment of the troops in order to see what other outrages they could get away with. Or, they wanted to spy on the troops to see who was most loyal to Biden and who wasn't.

Whatever it was, it wasn't a pretty picture. One can only imagine that in such a scenario, the agents will work as deep state operatives to keep leaking videos, digging up dirt on these Quislings, and rousing the public to the Bidenite incineration of their profession. That's not good stuff for Biden, and you can bet they'll try to silence them.

Biden family business dealings with China is a ‘national security issue’: Schweizer






Schweizer: The CCP Will ‘Win’ if Elites Don’t Change Their Behavior

1:39

On Friday’s edition of “China Insider with David Zhang,” Breitbart News senior contributor Peter Schweizer, the author of Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win, said that if U.S. elites continue their behavior towards China, “the CCP would win.” And “life here is going to be heavily influenced by what the regime in Beijing wants.”

Host David Zhang asked, “You mentioned the Chinese Communist Party is trying to compete with the United States to be number one. What’s going to happen if American elites in Silicon Valley or in Washington [continue] this type of behavior? If we went down this path, what could happen if China were to surpass us?”

Schweizer responded, “Well, I think the CCP would win. And that means a fundamentally different world system, economically. It also means that the United States isn’t going to necessarily be occupied, but life here is going to be heavily influenced by what the regime in Beijing wants. So, the stakes are very high. I think people, obviously, are very sympathetic and concerned [with] what’s happening to the Chinese people. But, for some people, who say, look, that’s not my concern. This should be their concern. Because this is going to affect their life as well.”

Schweizer added, “Beijing doesn’t have to lobby for its own interests. Because there are so many powerful interests in the United States that will lobby on their behalf.”

The fact that Hunter's market value was derived from his father's position seemed to be a source of resentment for the younger Biden, even as he continued to cash in on the name. Hunter complained in texts to his daughter that he had financially supported the Biden clan for three decades and that "pop" takes a cut of "half [my] salary." Financia records and correspondence reported on by Devine indicate that money from Hunter's business accounts was used to cover Joe's AT&T bill and home maintenance expenses and that a portion of at least one major China deal was earmarked for the elder Biden.

Peter Schweizer: China’s Main Strategy to Win Is ‘Elite Capture,’ Buying Off U.S. Elites Like the Bidens

The Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) main strategy to win involves buying off the elites of the United States — a process they call “elite capture” — Breitbart News senior contributor and author of the bestselling bombshell Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win Peter Schewizer told Breitbart News Saturday, identifying the Biden family as one of the primary examples of a successful target.

Schweizer, president of the Government Accountability Institute (GAI), explained the broad theme of his latest blockbuster during his appearance on the show. 

“The subtitle of the book is how American elites get rich helping China win, and this reflects a strategy that Beijing has had. They’re pretty open about it, where the strategy is simply to buy off the elites of the United States and other countries,” Schweizer began, explaining that China views itself as in a competition with the United States. However, it believes it can win by buying off elites — not actually competing with the U.S. economy and culture.

“In other words they view themselves as in this competition with the United States. There is a competition between these two countries and they want to win. They’re quite open about that. President Xi has been talking about that since 2012, and they’ve decided the way they can win is not going toe to toe with this dynamic economy and culture. The way they can win is by buying off the elites. They call it elite capture. That’s the term they use,” Schweizer explained, walking through how the CCP views this strategy.

“They’re not looking for, you know, leaders to be clones. There’s a strategic concept they use that loosely translated means ‘big help with a little bad mouth,’ and what that basically means is, you know, if somebody says occasionally things about the Uyghurs or about human rights, they may get irritated about it, but that’s not a big deal. What they want the elites to do is ensure that they get access to Western capital, and they get access to Western technology. And as long as the elected officials and corporate executives don’t interfere on that, they’re very happy to help these elites get rich, because they’re helping them in such an important way,” he said.

In other words, when it is crunch time, the idea is these elites side with China, which wants access to Western markets, money, and research. One of the most successful targets of this CCP strategy is the Biden family, Schweizer explained, gaining some $31 million in deals from individuals with ties to Chinese intelligence.

LISTEN:

Schweizer noted that they first broke this theme in his book Secret Empires. They knew the Biden family had commercial ties in China and knew it was corruption and cronyism, but the Hunter Biden laptop and access to other emails, he said, allowed them to piece together how much they got and perhaps more importantly, who made the deals happen.

The question is “who really made it rain for the Bidens in China,” Schweizer said, explaining that Hunter Biden was eager for deals and went over in 2009 and 2010 after his father became vice president. There were a handful of Chinese businessmen that “made it rain” for Hunter, including Che Fang, a mysterious businessman who arranged a $20 million deal for Hunter. At the time Che Fang was also business partners with a vice minister for state security in China, their spy agency. The vice minister’s responsibility was foreign intelligence recruitment, which Schweizer said should have “set off alarm bells right away.” Another businessman that helped with that $20 million deal and wired another $5 million to a separate Hunter Biden  business was business partners specifically with the daughter of the former minister of state security, who ran the entire spy apparatus. 

“So the elite capture for the Bidens, I think, is crystal clear. It’s demonstrated in Joe Biden’s posture towards China and the facts are the facts,” Schweizer said.  

“Just imagine … in the Cold War days, if an American first family was doing deals, got $31 million from Russian businessmen who were linked to the KGB, I mean there would be alarm bells clanging all over Washington, DC,” Schweizer said. “And I think that needs to be going on today, because that’s how serious this issue is.”

Schweizer: Hunter Biden Provided ‘No Discernible Business Services’ for Deals with Ties to Chinese Intelligence

2:10

On Friday’s broadcast of the Fox Business Network’s “Evening Edit,” Breitbart News senior contributor Peter Schweizer, the author of Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win, said we have to investigate whether the Biden family has been compromised by Chinese intelligence operations.

According to Schweizer, there aren’t any clear business services that Hunter Biden performed for his deals with people tied to Chinese intelligence.

Schweizer said, “What worries me most is we first broke the story on these commercial deals with the Biden family in China back in 2018. What we’ve done is taken the new material and tried to figure out who made those deals happen in China. And in every one of the cases, those are businessmen that have ties to the highest levels of Chinese intelligence. What do I mean by that? Well, the private equity deal, where Hunter Biden was put on board of this private equity company financed by the Chinese government. That deal was done by a Chinese businessman named Che Feng. When he was doing that deal with Hunter Biden, he was business partners with the Vice Minister for the Ministry of State Security in China, a guy named Ma Jian. Ma Jian’s responsibility was the recruitment of foreign nationals to spy on behalf of China. Another one of the businessmen that was involved in that deal who also transferred $5 million to another one of Hunter Biden’s businesses is a guy named Mr. Zhao. His business partner at the time was the family of the former minister of state security who ran the entire spy apparatus of China.”

He continued, “So, the question is, why did these businessmen hand this money over to the Biden family? And I don’t think it’s philanthropy. I don’t think it’s business. There [are] no discernible business services that Hunter Biden performed for this money. I think we have to start looking at the notion, investigating the fact that Biden’s may be compromised in what was a Chinese-backed intelligence operation.”

Glenn Beck on ‘Red-Handed’: Joe Biden ‘Is Compromised on Almost Every Front’ with China

2:07

Glenn Beck said on Wednesday’s edition of his eponymous radio program that Peter Schweizer’s latest book, Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win, reveals how President Joe Biden “is compromised on almost every front” with respect to his family’s financial ties to China and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

Beck interviewed Schweizer, president of the Government Accountability Institute and host of the Drill Down podcast, about some of the book’s revelations. He contrasted false left-wing news media and Democrat narratives of former President Donald Trump’s “compromise” by the Russian government with the Biden family’s dealings with China. Beck said:

We have a president who is compromised on almost every front. [Joe Biden] says that Donald Trump was compromised by Vladimir Putin, except everything that Donald Trump did with Vladimir Putin did not work to Putin’s advantage. Here, the case is dramatically the opposite, but we’re living in a time now where — because of China and because of Biden — the press isn’t going to [cover this information].

Beck indirectly referenced events surrounding Robert Hanssen, a former FBI agent serving several life sentences following convictions on federal charges of espionage and conspiracy on behalf of Russia and the Soviet Union. He remarked:

This is the most stunning, illegal, clearly un-American activity I have ever seen produced outside of the guy who was actually a [Soviet] spy for the FBI. … It’s that kind of level, and no one’s going to talk about it. Nothing’s going to happen.

Red-Handed explains why U.S. elites often say and do things beneficial to the CCP, Beck said.

“Why does it feel like no one will take China on?” he asked. “Why is it that all of these elites are torpedoing us in favor of China?…Peter [Schweizer] has the answer. It’s called ‘Red-Handed.’ The new book Red-Handed outlines the answer to these disturbing questions.”

 

There it is.  That's the issue.  To begin, you have the corrupt family Biden.  They've been scamming us and our system well for almost fifty years.  The man is supposedly worth over 250 million dollars.  How is this possible on his salary?  It's not.  So where did his wealth come from?  Not from being a brilliant businessman. DAVID PRENTICE


The fact that Hunter's market value was derived from his father's position seemed to be a source of resentment for the younger Biden, even as he continued to cash in on the name.

Tom Cotton: ‘Red-Handed’ Revelations ‘Alarming’

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) called a bombshell report about Hunter Biden from Peter Schweizer’s new book, Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win, “alarming, but not surprising.”

Cotton tweeted out a Breitbart News article that cites Red-Handed and reports that a “Chinese global energy company,” with ties to Chinese intelligence, sent Hunter Biden almost $6 million in 2017.

 

The report, authored by Breitbart News’s Kristina Wong, reads in part:

The firm, now defunct, was led by Ye Jianming, a wealthy and connected Chinese businessman who was chairman and majority owner of the global energy company CEFC China Energy.

Furthermore, by July 2017, CEFC began making interest-free, forgivable loans to the Biden family. CEFC executive Zhao Running wrote that $5 million was intended as the money lent to the BD family,” not just Hunter Biden.

“This $5 million loan to the BD [Biden] family is interest-free,” Zhao wrote.

Schweizer notes that “interest-free loans provide tremendous leverage because the lender can demand its money back if it is displeased by any action.”

In August 2017, CEFC Infrastructure Investment LLC sent Hunter Biden’s law firm, Owasco, $100.000. Four days later, the firm wired $5 million to another entity controlled by Ye, which then started sending regular payment to Owasco. Biden then transferred $1.4 million of that money to a firm called Lion Hall Group, which was controlled by his uncle James Biden and his wife, Sara Biden.

According to Red-Handed, The Biden family received “$31 million from five deals in China, all with individuals with direct ties to the Chinese spy apparatus,” reports Breitbart News’s Politics Editor Emma-Jo Morris.

 

Citing Red-Handed, Morris writes:

Multiple financiers with direct ties to Chinese intelligence partnered with Hunter Biden during and after his father’s time as Vice President — including the former head of the Ministry of State Security and the head of foreign intelligence recruitment — and some of those relationships remain intact, according to Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win, by Breitbart News senior contributor Peter Schweizer.

Schweizer explains that Beijing saw a financial relationship with the Bidens as an opening for “elite capture,” which allowed Hunter Biden to secure meetings and score major deals with people in the highest levels of Chinese financial institutions and the Chinese Communist Party — and in return, they would be able to leverage the Bidens’ power for their interests.

Schweizer’s book also chronicles how donations from communist China to the University of Pennsylvania almost tripled after the university announced in February of 2017 it was launching the “Biden Center,” Breitbart News’s John Hayward reports.

 

“In the three years before the announcement, the university received around $15 million. In the three years after, the total was close to $40 million. The latter number is $60 million from China if you include contracts,” writes Schweizer in Red-Handed. 

Hayward reports:

Some of those donors were anonymous, but declared donors included the state-owned China Merchants Bank, and a company called Cathay Fortune owned by “a secretive Chinese billionaire who appears to have strong links with the Communist Party” named Yu Yong.

Cathay Fortune is especially interesting because it has a controlling interest in China Molybdenum, a mineral producer with Chinese military contracts that teamed up with Hunter Biden’s investment fund to invest in an African copper mine.

For a time, Anthony Blinken – now Biden’s secretary of state – “served as the center’s managing director before heading off to work on the presidential campaign in 2019,” Schweizer writes.

Hayward notes that in March of 2021, Secretary of State Blinken “was famously ambushed and curb-stomped by Chinese diplomats during his first bilateral conference with them.”

Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win was published by Harper-Collins and released on January 25. It has already claimed “the #1 bestseller spot on both Barnes & Noble and Amazon across all book categories and genres,” Breitbart News reports. Schweizer, a senior contributor to Breitbart News and president of the Government Accountability Institute (GAI), is also the bestselling author of Throw Them All Out, Clinton Cash, and Secret Empires. 

 

Schweizer: ‘The Biden Family May Be Compromised’

During a Wednesday interview on Newsmax TV’s “Spicer & Co.,” Breitbart News senior contributor Peter Schweizer said that President Joe Biden and his family “may be compromised” as a result of their dealings with Chinese businessmen.

Schweizer, the author of Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win, laid out how Biden and his son Hunter “received some $31 million from businessmen in China” who have “direct ties to the highest levels of Chinese intelligence.” He added that information “should be setting off sirens everywhere in Washington, D.C.”

“To me, it’s really the story in American politics today, and that’s the fact that the Biden family has received some $31 million from businessmen in China,” Schweizer advised. “Each and every one of those businessmen has direct ties to the highest levels of Chinese intelligence, meaning they’re business partners with the vice minister for State Security or they’re business partners with family members of the minister of State Security. It’s shocking to me that other media outlets mainstream media is not pursuing this story because it’s not a story of corruption anymore or cronyism — it’s of national security. And I think it raises questions — very serious questions — about the fact that the Biden family may be compromised.”

“Hunter Biden believes he’s won the lottery because of this guy’s deals, and this guy is neck-deep in the world of Chinese espionage and spying,” he added. “This should be setting off sirens everywhere in Washington, D.C.”

REVIEW: ‘Laptop from Hell: Hunter Biden, Big Tech, and the Dirty Secrets the President Tried to Hide’

 

 

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. 

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.

KATRINA WONG

 Joe Biden, in his days in the Senate, was very partial to China, as he voted against revoking China’s most-favored nation status and in 2007 opposed the idea of applying any tariffs on China despite their obvious unfair trade practices.  However, it was as Vice President that he became wholly enamored with the country and its leadership.

 ambitious, disagreeable junior senator

I’d be inclined to disagree with Don except for one thing: Biden has proven to be a very adept criminal mastermind. For decades, he has funneled millions of dollars to his children and siblings and, especially, to his debauched, deviant son, Hunter.

Exclusive — Stefanik, Cawthorn Support Appointing Special Counsel on Biden Family China Ties

At least two high profile House Republicans are joining the push for Attorney General Merrick Garland to appoint a Justice Department Special Counsel to investigate Democrat President Joe Biden’s family’s business ties to the Chinese Communist Party, Breitbart News has learned exclusively.

House GOP conference chairwoman Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) and Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-NC) both confirmed to Breitbart News on Wednesday they support the growing calls for such a Special Counsel appointment.

Their statements come after the New York Post’s Editorial Board on Wednesday announced support for a Special Counsel to investigate Hunter Biden’s and the Biden family’s Chinese business dealings, and after Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) did so earlier this week in an exclusive interview with Breitbart News.

“The Bidens have lied about their illegal and unethical conflicts of interest for too long. The evidence of Hunter Biden’s corrupt business dealings, particularly with Communist China, his shady involvement in international affairs and art scandal is mounting, but still the Attorney General shamefully has not called for a special counsel,” Stefanik told Breitbart News.

“Make no mistake. This is a problem for Joe Biden and the whole Biden family, and they have been in hiding for too long. They must provide full transparency to the American people,” the third-ranking GOP House member continued.

Cawthorn told Breitbart News he is in favor of public investigation into Hunter after a 2018 investigation by the U.S. attorney’s office in Delaware slowed during the 2020 presidential election.

“Just imagine how the left-wing legacy media would be losing their collective minds if one of President Trump’s sons had engaged in one-tenth of the corruption Hunter Biden has,” Cawthorn told Breitbart News. “We should absolutely have a special counsel investigate Hunter Biden.”

“The New York Post stood up to censorship, slander, and abuse for simply reporting the Hunter Biden laptop story,” Cawthorn added in reference to former Post Deputy Politics Editor and now Breitbart News’ Politics Editor Emma-Jo Morris’s reporting that first broke the “laptop from hell” story during the 2020 presidential election.

Morris’s reporting on Hunter’s “laptop from hell” drove an “awakening” about just how protected President Biden’s son is from public inquiry, especially while the Biden administration controls Washington, DC.

The Post’s Wednesday opinion piece slammed President Biden’s Attorney General, Merrick Garland, for not naming a special counsel to investigate Hunter, who seems to be the most protected man in America:

It’s past time for Garland to explain why he hasn’t named a special counsel.

This idea has been batted around at least since Hunter’s smelly art sales surfaced. And the drip of damning news has only continued: a former business partner “co-operating completely” with the feds; congressional allegations that the Secret Service improperly redacted records relating to Hunter’s travels; news that Hunter’s bank records on his dealings with the Bank of China were subpoenaed in May 2019.

That is, the feds have been looking at Hunter since the Obama administration. Given all this, Biden should have put the probe under impartial supervision long ago. In between, Justice has managed to fully investigate, for example, everything about then-President Donald Trump’s supposed collusion with Russia — albeit via a special counsel.

The Post’s statement follows reporting by Breitbart News that revealed a 2019 document from the U.S. Attorney’s office in Delaware. The document indicated the IRS subpoenaed “JPMorgan Chase Bank for financial records of Hunter Biden, the president’s brother James Biden, their associates Devon Archer and Eric Schwerin, and a number of business entities with which they were involved” as an integral part of a criminal investigation into Hunter.

Breitbart News’s reporting on the IRS investigation into Hunter comes as Breitbart News senior contributor Peter Schweizer’s book Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win dropped bombshell reporting about the Biden family’s potentially criminal activities.
