<><>Here is further evidence that there was no separation between Hunter’s private influence peddling business and the official business of the Obama-Biden White House.
<><>Rosemont Seneca frequently used the Biden name to gain access to and obtain special business-related favors from the White House.
<><>The documents reveal shocking evidence of Hunter’s influence in the official Office of the Vice President.
<><> Hunter had the ability to direct correspondence, plan guest lists for State dinners and receptions, and bring people into the White House at his discretion.
<><>This evidence further calls into question Joe Biden’s claims that he was never involved with, never discussed, and did not know about Hunter’s business dealings, and it raises questions as to the propriety of the massive payments Hunter was receiving while he was commanding such influence in the Office of the Vice President.
<><>Hunter’s influence peddling business sent or received emails between January 2011 and December 2013 that contained the name of Hunter Biden’s company, “Rosemont Seneca.”
<><>The vast majority of these emails consisted of direct communications between Rosemont Seneca employees, including Hunter Biden, and the Office of the Vice President.
<><>Contrary to Joe Biden’s claim that there is an “absolute wall between the personal and private, and the government,” the White House asserted executive privilege to withhold 200 emails in their entirety because “Release would disclose confidential advice between the President and his advisors, or between such advisors.”
<><>Hunter Biden used his family name to leverage access to the White House:
<><>Emails obtained by AFL reveal the broad access Hunter Biden enjoyed to the official government channels while his father was Vice President. Below are just a few examples of how Hunter Biden had free reign in directing the use of official government resources.
<><>Hunter Biden played a role in planning high-profile White House events
<><>Even though Hunter had no official role in the Obama-Biden Administration, he was intimately involved in planning for high-profile White House events, including the January 2011 China State Luncheon, the June 2011 State Arrival Ceremony for German Chancellor, the March 2012 United Kingdom State Dinner and Visit, the May 2013 Turkey State Luncheon, and the 2014 France State Dinner.
<><>As our investigation has previously uncovered, Hunter and his Rosemont Seneca business partner had been planning for the “China Lunch” months in advance.
<><>Hunter Biden and his associates at Rosemont Seneca frequently used the Biden name to gain access to the White House
<><>Even though Hunter’s business partner, Eric Schwerin, had no official government position, our investigation previously revealed the degree to which he intimately involved himself with official White House business and used the Biden name to gain unfettered access to the White House.
<><>On another occasion, Hunter asked specifically for a White House tour for his business associate at Third Point. Hunter and his associates were invested with Third Point, a hedge fund founded by Democratic billionaire donor Dan Loeb. Emails from Hunter Biden’s laptop revealed that they were helping Dan Loeb and Third Point raise billions of dollars from China’s sovereign wealth fund, CIC.
Hunter frequently requested official correspondence from the Office of the Vice President and involved his Rosemont Seneca team. The Rosemont Seneca team, at Hunter’s direction, reached out to the OVP correspondence director to obtain a letter for an associate. During this exchange, Hunter’s assistant at Rosemont Seneca welcomes the new White House staffer “to the team.”
These records further confirm that there was never a wall between the Office of the Vice President and Hunter Biden; in fact, there was extensive commingling between them. America First Legal will continue to share findings with the public through documents obtained from litigation against the National Archives.

The House Oversight Committee demanded Wednesday that the National Archives hand over records on first son Hunter Biden’s use of Air Force Two — following a report that he caught rides to at least 13 countries during his father’s vice presidency.
The Republican-led panel asked for relevant passenger manifests from Joe Biden’s eight years as vice president by Sept. 13 — as House leaders say they could launch an impeachment inquiry as early as next month to expedite a probe of the elder Biden’s alleged role in his 53-year-old son’s foreign business ventures.
“Then-Vice President Biden’s misuse of Air Force Two and Marine Two is indicative of yet another way in which the President has abused his various offices of public trust and wasted taxpayer money to benefit his family’s enterprise, which consisted of nothing more than access to Joe Biden himself,” committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) and member Byron Donalds (R-Fla.) wrote to Archivist Colleen Shogan.
“Devon Archer, a longtime Biden family associate, has stated it is ‘categorically false’ that Joe Biden played no role in his son’s foreign business dealings. Flights on Air Force Two around the world to seal business deals are evidence of that role.”
The letter demands “unrestricted special access” to “[a]ll Air Force Two and Marine Two manifests from January 20, 2009, to January 20, 2017, that include any Biden family member or associates (Eric Schwerin, Devon Archer, or Jeffrey Cooper)” as well as any “documents and communications” about such travel or “referring to or relating to any security incidents” in that period of time.
Fox News reported last week that Hunter appeared to have traveled aboard Air Force Two to Croatia, Kosovo, Serbia, Canada, Japan, Germany, Italy, Egypt, South Africa, Kenya and South Korea — in addition to better-known trips to China and Mexico that overlapped with the then-second son seeking business.
Communications suggest Hunter may have also joined his dad in Belgium and Spain.
The requests came after House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) said Sunday that the launch of an impeachment inquiry was “a natural step forward” that “provides Congress the apex of legal power to get all the information they need.”
The Oversight Committee also is demanding that the Archives hand over communications involving then-Vice President Biden’s use of pseudonyms “Robin Ware” and “Robert L. Peters” — of which nearly 5,400 reportedly exist.
The GOP demands for records are broad. For example, McCarthy said Aug. 8 that he wants Biden to “give us his bank statements” to settle questions about whether he personally profited from Hunter and first brother James Biden’s foreign dealings.
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Monday federal agencies should “work with” congressional inquiries and that she was unaware of what Republicans were “complaining about.”
Comer said he’s seeking Air Force Two records because “there must be accountability for this abuse of taxpayer-funded resources.”
“The walls are closing in on the Biden Family due to consistent and diligent efforts by House Republicans who’ve followed the money, conducted meticulous interviews and hearings, and uncovered undeniable corruption,” Donalds said.
Trips aboard Air Force Two featured notably in Hunter’s dealings in China and Mexico.
Hunter co-founded Chinese state-backed investment fund BHR Partners 12 days after joining his dad for an official trip to Beijing in 2013, the Wall Street Journal reported. He introduced Joe Biden to BHR CEO Jonathan Li during the trip to China’s capital.
Devon Archer, a longtime Hunter associate who served with him on the board of Ukrainian natural gas company Burisma Holdings, told the Oversight Committee on July 31 that Joe Biden and Li had coffee in Beijing — rather than a brief handshake as previously reported — and that Hunter put Li on speakerphone when he and Archer made a subsequent trip to China. The elder Biden later wrote college recommendation letters for Li’s children.
Hunter, joined by his US associate Jeff Cooper, also traveled with Joe Biden on Air Force Two to Mexico in 2016.
Hunter got peeved......apparently emailing a Mexican associate from the jet to complain about the lack of reciprocal business favors.
Hunter whined, “I have brought every single person you have ever asked me to bring to the F’ing White House and to the Vice President’s house and to the inauguration.”
But Joe’s boy complained he got nothing in return.
