Hunter emails: Ex-FBI chief Freeh gave $100K to Biden grandkid trust fund as he sought ‘future work’ with the Bidens

Former FBI Director Louis Freeh gave $100,000 to a trust for Joe Biden’s grandchildren as he sought to pursue “some very good and profitable matters” with him. Freeh apparently made the gift April 2016 — while Biden was Obama’s outgoing VP... “I would like to explore with him some future work options,” Freeh wrote July 8, 2016. “I believe that working together on these (and other legal) matters would be of value, fun and rewarding.”

In another email to Hunter the following year, Freeh described seeing Joe Biden at church earlier in the day “and he said hi walking back from communion–I didn’t get the chance to return greetings.” “If you have his cell and personal email, I’d like to have his contacts (will protect),” Freeh wrote March 12, 2017. “I would like to persuade him to associate with me and FSS—as we have some very good and profitable matters which he could enhance with minimal time.” The initials FSS refer to the law firm Freeh Sporkin & Sullivan, where Freeh, a former federal judge, was a partner at the time.

The following month, Freeh wrote Hunter regarding the gift he’d made to the trust for the children of Hunter’s late brother, Beau Biden, who died of brain cancer in 2015, and Beau’s wife, Hallie, with whom Hunter later had an affair. “As you know, our family foundation made a $100K contribution to Hallie’s children’s trust last year,” Freeh wrote April 24, 2017. But Freeh said that his accountants “now advise that since the grant did not go to a 501(c) organization, it was not a proper foundation gift” and that he planned to fix the situation by making “a new $100k gift” and having the trust “reimburse the foundation by paying it $100k.”

So Biden lands Freeh a huge contract (no price mentioned, just that Freeh was "brought in"), then, after the fact, Freeh offers to pay a finder's fee to Biden:
In the email, Freeh also offered to give a referral payment to Hunter for getting him the job with Popoviciu. 'I would also like to make a small payment to you for this referral-and for your continuing work on this matter,' Freeh wrote. 'This is a standard practice. It's strictly your call as I don't know your relationship with the client. We would just need your bank information in order to make a remittance.'
What do you suppose "a small payment" was? Dinner at a nice restaurant? A fine bottle of wine? A free night with Biden's underage prostitutes?

About four months later, Freeh then pays a $100,000 "gift" to the Biden children trust, recycling some or all of the "finder's fee" back to the Bidens.

This sleaze is off the charts.
