Update (1000ET): Donald Trump Jr. has just raised an interesting question in a tweet: Is Twitter censoring the Hunter Biden stories from the NY Post at the behest of the Communist Party of China?
"There needs to be an immediate government investigation into @twitter/@jack. Not just because of their blatant election interference to protect Biden, but to find out if they're censoring these NY Post stories at the behest of the Chinese Communist Party. Put Jack under oath!!!" Don Jr. tweeted.

Not just because of their blatant election interference to protect Biden, but to find out if they're censoring these NY Post stories at the behest of the Chinese Communist Party.

We imagine this tweet will be suppressed momentarily, if it hasn't been already.

Update (1000ET): While Twitter suppresses this latest Hunter Biden expose, it's trending topics section is allowing #EricTrumpsUkraineScandal in one of the top spots. The story is essentially a collection of previously reported comments that even the NYT has now acknowledged isn't accurate.
The 10 top political topics were overwhelmingly 'anti-Trump'.

Update (0935ET): Despite last night's "apology" from Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, Twitter and Facebook are already censoring Thursday's latest Hunter Biden exposé from the NY Post.
Twitter also censoring follow-ups to the original @nypost article -- totally separate story on Hunter Biden's China interests pic.twitter.com/WjCZ6Z6UHV Joel Pollak (@joelpollak) October 15, 2020
Congress is demanding an explanation, yet Twitter and Facebook are moving ahead with their outright censorship.

Rudy Giuliani hinted last night that there would be more emails from the trove discovered by a Delaware computer repair shop owner (who has shared his story on the record with Fox News). And at 0500ET, the NYPost published another lengthy exposé - at least the second front-page piece in what is shaping up to be a fascinating series - citing never-before-seen emails between Hunter Biden and various individuals connected to a major Chinese energy firm that failed earlier this year after its chairman - a party insider with deep ties to China's military - was "disappeared" by China's state security apparatus.
The first of three email chains explored in the story was sent to biden by a man named Jams Gillar, of the international consulting firm J2cR. The email chain discusses what appears to be a generous compensation package for Hunter Biden, along with other individuals whom the Post was apparently unable to identify (though it's tempting to hazard a guess).
A subject line on the email, dated May 13, 2017 read "Expectations", and it included details of "remuneration packages" for six individuals involved in the new business venture (the nature of the business wasn't clear, though it appears to be related to Biden's international consulting business). However, Biden's partner in the business appears to be CEFC China Energy, the now-defunct energy firm mentioned above.

The deal also listed 10 Jim and 10 held by H for the big guy? Though neither was positively identified.
In another email, sent by Biden as part of a chain dated Aug. 2, 2017, Biden discusses what appears to be a joint venture - a deal structure common in China, where foreign competitors must build partnerships with domestic firms - involving the former Chairman of CEFC, Ye Jianming. Half the ownership was to be held by Hunter and the Biden family.
Ye disappeared in early 2018 and is believed to have had deep connections to China's intelligence and security services. Though at one point, Biden wrote that Ye had sweetened the terms of an earlier, three-year consulting contract with CEFC that was to pay him $10 million annually "for introductions alone."
Here's the excerpt from the NY Post story, accompanied by visual snippets culled directly from the emails, in which Biden asserts that the reason this joint venture is "so much more interesting to me and my family is that we would also be partners in the equity and profits."
The nature of this 'venture' wasn't made clear.
Biden wrote that Ye had sweetened the terms of an earlier, three-year consulting contract with CEFC that was to pay him $10 million annually for introductions alone."
The chairman changed that deal after we me[t] in MIAMI TO A MUCH MORE LASTING AND LUCRATIVE ARRANGEMENT to create a holding company 50% percent [sic] owned by ME and 50% owned by him, Biden wrote.
Consulting fees is one piece of our income stream but the reason this proposal by the chairman was so much more interesting to me and my family is that we would also be partners inn [sic] the equity and profits of the JVs [joint ventures] investments.

What's more, a photo published by the Post and dated Aug. 1, 2017 shows what appears to be a handwritten flowchart illustrating the ownership structure of Hudson West, split 50/50 between two entities ultimately controlled by Hunter Biden and someone else identified only as Chairman.
Source: NYP
We know from the Senate report released last month that 'Hudson West III' was used as a name for one of Hunter Biden's shell companies formed with Gongwen Dong. To be sure, some details about Biden's Chinese consulting practice has already been made public, but details of the dealmaking and discussions that went on behind the scenes have not.
Finally, the last in the triptych of distressing email chains is aa copy of an "attorney engagement letter" between Hunter Biden and one of Ye's top lieutenants, Hong Kong official Chi Ping Patrick Ho.
He agreed to pay Biden a $1 million retainer for "counsel to matters related to US law and advice pertaining ot the hiring and legal analysis of any US Law Firm or Lawyer."
Later, in December 2018, a Manhattan federal jury convicted Ho for being involved in two schemes to pay $3 million in bribes to high-ranking government officials to help obtain oil rights in Chad and lucrative business deals in Uganda.
Source: NYP
Ho has served his sentence and was deported to Hong Kong in June.
Neither the Biden Campaign, lawyers for Hunter Biden, Gillar, Dong nor Ho returned requests for comment from the NY Post.
After yesterday's catastrophe, we look forward to watching Facebook and Twitter scramble to suppress this story as well. We're beginning to see why the Post has decided to publicize details from the trove piecemeal, instead of writing a 10,000-word NYT-style novel about Hunter Biden's transgressions.
The NY Post also published a handful of new candidate selfies apparently taken by Hunter Biden along with the story.
It's a suitable tactic for what some conservatives are calling a "digital civil war" over information that could influence the election in President Trump's favor.
Earned?
This article loses me in the headline.
RE: Earned?
OK, let’s find a more appropriate word....
GRIFTED........................
Joe Biden is really Joe Bananas the head of a crime family. Literally like the Clinton crime family for selling his office. Hunter was his point man for the Ukraine and Russia. Joe should have got him to do push ups... get him off of crack.
It’s good to have clarity in the share of ownership Hunter Biden has in companies that receive money from foreign companies.
did he pay taxes? and baby mommy court case, did he declare the income?
REFERENCE---Hunter Biden's business partnership w/ a Chinese investment firm funded by the Chinese Communist government started acquiring companies beneficial to the Chinese military.....
they invested in China General Nuclear, which ended up being charged by our FBI for stealing US nuclear secrets
then ended up buying part of an American duel use technology company, meaning it produces technology that has civilian and military applications.......
buying that for the benefit of the Chinese military. The Biden Relationship with China Has Very Real National Security Implications. Hunter Bidens deals served China and the Chinese military, while Joe Biden was Obama's VP.
===================================
The entire Biden family was involved in undermining the safety and security of Americans while Joe Biden was Obama's VP. <><> Joes brother, James Biden, freely revealed his associations to the NYT; James talked without fear. <><> indicates that the Biden family had protection from a VERY HIGH SOURCE.........
============================
BACKSTORY In December 2016, the FBI busted a China General nuclear engineer, Szuhsiung Allen Ho, for conspiring to help China illegally obtain sensitive nuclear technology from within the US.........
After Chi Ping Ho got nailed, an executive with CEFC China Energy Co., was busted by the FBI in 2017 for bribing officials in Africa, ........one of the CEFC China Energy Co.s exec first calls was to James Biden, Joe Bidens brother.
Last year, James Biden told The New York Times....(without fear)......that he believed China Energy Co.s exec (later convicted) had been trying to reach Hunter and that, he, James Biden, provided his nephews contact information.
The FBi looked the other way.
The DoJ looked the other way.
The (Gov Agency) looked the other way.
There are different rules for Bidens
.
boomark
The FBI looked the other way.
The DoJ looked the other way.
BINGO!

How 7.4 Tons of Venezuelas Gold Landed in Africaand Vanished

ENTEBBE, UgandaThe government of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro is selling off his countrys gold reserves. Some of it has passed through a secretive operation in East Africa, a gambit that evades U.S. sanctions. On two early-March flights, at least 7.4 tons of gold with a market value over $300 million moved from Venezuela to a refinery in Uganda, say officials in Venezuela and Uganda, a foreign diplomat and Venezuelan opposition lawmakers, who have concluded Mr. Maduros government exported the ingots. The gold arrived on a Russian charter jetliner in two shipments at the international airport in Entebbe, says Ugandan national-police...
Corrupt,stupid, arrogant and lazy in their corruption... the Biden's suck... If they FBI and DOJ were doing their job - this would be called 'easy pickings'...

China gave Hunter Biden $1.5 billion to be invested by Hunters investment company.
The purpose of the investments is for China to gain some measure of control over Wall Streetand other companies. Their is redirected through companies like Bidens to hide the amount of Chinese involvement.
China has used its money along with the promise of giving access to its market of 1.4 billion people (four times larger than the US) to significantly influence American politics and from that political influence, our government and the Deep State. Sometimes I wonder how much they have funded BLM and Antifa because they believe political, economic and social upheaval should come in terms of revolution by the people, and this is the start of their version of it.
It is the companies and organizations who will benefit most from access to China who are going after Trump the hardest: financial companies (Saros and Bloomberg leading the charge), entertainment and Hollywood, the NBA, high tech giants, socialist organization etc. These organizations have sold out the future of our country for financial gain.
Fox News is now owned by Disney, whose recent movie Mulan is a love letter to China. Disney refused to remove or apologize for thanking, in their credits, officials in Xinjiang where a modern form of genocide is taking place. There was always a significant portion of Foxs people who were against Trump, but that has intensified greatly since the sale. For example, Fox gave orders to its people not to say anything on the air about George Soros and, earlier, the whistle blower and everyone, including Hannity, followed those orders.
Watch out, China might be attacking us from within in a major way.
Are we going to suffer the fate of the Uighurs someday? Once China takes over a country they can easily control it through brutality, re-education camps, and high tech. We are already seeing Chinese-like behavior from The Left in terms of censorship, propaganda, intimidation and the beginnings of a Peoples Revolution by BLM and Antifa.
So, for those of us who have wondered WHY Biden is running and WHY his family would ALLOW it, given his clear cognitive decline - this explains it. The BIG Biden crime family payoff depends on him being the BIG GUY...for as long as he can fight off Kamala Harris (which begs the question, who is setting up HER deals?)
Never mind winning......just being the candidate gives the Syndicate plenty of deal-making options.
