If the charges against Biden are all “lies,” there should be no problem for Biden. Unfortunately, it is Biden who has been lying continuously for years and taking millions in bribes.

Republicans need to talk to Eric Schwerin since emails from Hunter's hard drive show Schwerin moving money on behalf of Joe and Hunter while helping the latter handle family expenses. Schwerin received Joe Biden’s “Delaware tax refund check” while he was vice president and he and Hunter talked by phone about Joe Biden’s mortgage.

In February 2014, Hunter advised Schwerin to describe himself as a “close confidant and counsel” to his VP dad WRT a letter of recommendation Schwerin was penning on Joe Biden’s behalf.

The NY Post reported that Eric Schwerin was involved in the transfer of Joe Biden’s Senate papers to the U of Delaware in March 2010 — which may have included “sensitive” and “classified” documents.

By December 2017, Hunter had fallen out with Schwerin and attempted to cut ties with him.

HUNTER UNLEASHED “I terminated you as an at will employee for gross negligence. Also if you continue to sit with friends of mine and relationships that are mine and defame me I will sue you for defamation of character and embezzlement and for the debt with you still have not contributed your supposed 25% share of,” Hunter wrote on Dec. 12, 2017. “ … We are no longer just done as business partners you should consider moving to somewhere in Florida I’ll never go. Naples is perfect you can live in perpetual time share with your parents and talk about what a horrible person I am.”

The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Biden niece and Obama employee w/ sensitive US govt information to peddle.

Republicans should also talk to Biden’s niece Casey Owens - his sister’s child - who aided and abetted Hunter’s influence peddling schemes.

BACKSTORY w/ top-notch reporting by the NY Post.

Casey Owens official trip to China was part of Obama’s US delegation led by then-Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner. During the visit, then-Chinese Finance Minister Zhu Guangyao presented Owens with a “small jade vase as a birthday gift,” according to an article in her high school’s alumni magazine, The Tower Hill Bulletin.

The Obama US-China Strategic and Economic Dialogue team “worked very closely” with Zhu, the article states.

Months later, Casey Owens shared a Bloomberg News article highlighting a “record year” for CIC after the 2008 financial crisis and was put in touch with another associate of Rosemont Seneca to discuss coordination between government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs) and China.

“Per our conversation regarding GSEs and China, I wanted to put you in touch with Hunter’s cousin, Casey Owens, who is at the Obama Treasury Department and works on the Strategic Economic Dialogue,” Schwerin wrote in an Aug. 4, 2010, email to the associate, Jack Casey. “I have cc:ed Casey on this email. Feel free to reach out to her directly, she’s expecting to hear from you.”

“Jack, Happy to speak at your convenience,” Casey Owens replied. Schwerin also forwarded the exchange to Hunter.

Eric Schwerin then connected Hunter and Devon Archer in an email with a ranking of the world’s top sovereign wealth funds.

Fox News first reported on the emails between Casey Owens, Hunter and his associates, and a source familiar with the situation told the outlet Rosemont Seneca had likely been pursuing CIC to invest in their clients.

One year later, Schwerin looped in Hunter and fellow Rosemont Seneca co-founder Devon Archer on an email with a ranking of the world’s top sovereign wealth funds — including CIC, which listed $332 billion in assets at the time.

“Let’s discuss today what else we can be doing to connect with these groups,” Archer said in response to the March 8, 2011, email, noting an upcoming meeting they had scheduled with CIC on April 21.

That meeting occurred the following month, The Post has previously reported, though there is no evidence that a deal was ever struck between the parties.

Owens also apparently emailed her uncle Joe while he was vice president, according to communications on Hunter’s laptop, and in one email said she was “deeply” affected by “incredible” remarks he gave to her Treasury team.

Owens wrote to Hunter and his partner Eric Schwerin in the missive from her official Treasury email account, along with text from an article by AsianInvestor.com.

“That was really something else, Uncle Joe. What a way to exit the Treasury,” she wrote on May 10, 2011, to a pseudonymous email address titled auks@att.blackberry.net. “I’m almost embarrassed by how deeply today has impacted me. I’m simply happy to be close to you, and I just wanted to say thank you for including me,” she told the account, named for the mascot of Archmere Academy, where Biden and his son attended high school.

Two years later, Rosemont and Thornton would form the private investment fund BHR Partners with two Chinese entities linked to the state-owned Bank of China.

Biden, still while vice president, “had coffee” with BHR Partners CEO Jonathan Li the same year and Hunter later put his dad on speakerphone with the executive, according to sworn congressional testimony Archer gave in July.As recently as late 2021, Hunter was known to hold a 10% stake in the company, which manages $2.1 billion in assets.

=================================================

Owens got her privileged job at Obama’s Treasury Department shortly after her uncle Joe took office as veep and remained there for two years before leaving for Starbucks, where she currently works as a vice president, according to her LinkedIn profile.

She did not respond immediately to a request for comment. The White House, the Treasury Department and Hunter’s defense counsel Abbe Lowell also did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Memo to Republicans:

Greenfield-—At first glance, Hunter Biden’s influence peddling deals appear to be internationally opportunistic, as he flew on AF Two from one part of the world to the other, exploiting whatever openings emerged.

Republicans need to scrutinize whether Hunter and his business partners were piggybacking on the foreign and domestic policies of the Obama administration, converging on green energy investments at home, and Chinese and Ukrainian oligarchs looking to do business in America.

’House Republicans have uncovered serious and credible allegations into President Biden’s conduct,’ Speaker McCarthy said. ‘Taken together these allegations paint a picture of a culture of corruption, allegations of abuse of power, obstruction and corruption. And they warrant further investigation by the House of Representatives. That’s why today I am directing our House committee to open a formal impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden,’ he noted.

‘This logical next step will give our committees, the full power to gather all the facts and answers for the American public. That’s exactly what we want to know the answers.’

House investigators are expected to issue subpoenas for the bank records of the president and his family. =====================================================

Republicans have charged Biden and his family made millions off shell companies Hunter Biden formed when his father was vice president. Hunter had business deals with an energy company in the Ukraine, received a discounted stake in a private-equity firm in China, and did consulting for a Romanian real-estate magnate.

The president has denied any involvement in his son’s business dealings. But Republicans claim at least a dozen Biden family members could be involved in a scheme to benefit financially from Biden’s public office.

The GOP also claims Biden sat in on at least 24 calls with Hunter’s influence peddling business partners and was referred to as ‘the big guy’ by Hunter’s business associates. And they say Joe Biden used pseudonyms to discuss his activities related to Ukraine with his son Hunter during his time as vice president.

They are already doing this!!!

I watched one of the cable news stations this AM and they guy said ‘baseless charges’ more times in 5 minutes than I have ever heard.

And he also talked about how the congress was wasting time when it could be doing important things.

He sounded like one of the republicans when they did the shameful impeachment of Trump. Based on words he said- and how they interpreted them as in their heads.

McConnel should have sent the first impeachment right back to Pelosi because they contained no actual crimes, only their confused interpretation of what they think Trump meant.

Does anyone need any more proof that the “media” is the public relations arm of the democrat party? To think that it is perfectly normal for the white house to send out these demand letters to the media to do their bidding is breathtaking and beyond words.

Are the rinos quaking in their boots? This “inquiry” will likely be dropped when the left roar loud enough to make the spineless rinos run for cover
