On Wednesday, members of the House Oversight Committee who belong to the Republican party disclosed that an amount exceeding $20 million was received by the Biden family and their acquaintances from foreign entities situated in countries such as Russia, Ukraine, and Kazakhstan during the tenure of Joe Biden as the vice president.
The committee’s investigation identified substantial payments to Hunter Biden, notably including multimillion-dollar sums from Yelena Baturina, a Russian oligarch, as well as from Burisma, a major Ukrainian energy company, and Kenes Rakishev, an oligarch from Kazakhstan. These financial transactions occurred while Joe Biden held the position of vice president.
“During Joe Biden’s vice presidency, Hunter Biden sold him as ‘the brand’ to reap millions from oligarchs in Kazakhstan, Russia, and Ukraine. It appears no real services were provided other than access to the Biden network, including Joe Biden himself. And Hunter Biden seems to have delivered,” said committee chairman James Comer (R-KY).
“It’s clear Joe Biden knew about his son’s business dealings and allowed himself to be ‘the brand’ sold to enrich the Biden family while he was Vice President of the United States.”
In a particular incident, bank records reveal that Kenes Rakishev, an oil oligarch from Kazakhstan, electronically transferred $142,000 to a shell corporation owned by Hunter Biden, which was subsequently used to purchase a new Porsche. Notably, the day following the transaction, a dinner arrangement was made between Joe Biden and the aforementioned oligarch.
Furthermore, on March 25, 2014, there were distinct transactions amounting to $2.2 million and $200,000, respectively, deposited into the Rosemont Seneca Bohai account. This particular account was utilized by Hunter Biden and Devon Archer for receiving personal payments, including those originating from Burisma. Subsequently, Hunter transferred the funds to another Rosemont Seneca Bohai account, jointly accessible by him and Archer.
Following these financial moves, the former Vice President, Joe Biden, participated in a dinner event at Cafe Milano in Washington DC. This gathering included Baturina, Hunter, Archer, and other attendees. Curiously, it’s notable that Baturina, despite being a Russian oligarch, was conspicuously excluded from the list of sanctioned individuals.
The committee also asserts that concrete evidence supports the claim that Archer and Biden were compensated $1 million each for their positions on Burisma’s board, corresponding to a monthly payment of $83,333.
Ironically, the situation involves Hunter Biden, an expert in energy matters, amassing substantial earnings from a company that his father would later safeguard by influencing Ukraine to retain its chief prosecutor.
The committee has formally issued subpoenas to six different banks and has gained access to numerous records relating to the mentioned shell corporations. However, as of now, bank records for the Biden family have not been subpoenaed.
In a related development on Tuesday, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy urged President Biden to disclose his bank statements.
Meanwhile, US District Judge Tanya Chutkan of Washington, D.C., who presides over the case of former President Donald Trump in the district, has a prior association with Hunter Biden and close ties to the Ukrainian energy firm Burisma during her tenure at the law firm Boies, Schiller, & Flexner LLP (BSF).
