FIRST ON FOX: President Biden's White House chief of staff Ron Klain reached out to Hunter Biden in September 2012 for help in raising $20,000 for the Vice Presidents Residence Foundation (VPRF), telling him to "keep this low low key" to prevent "bad PR," according to emails reviewed by Fox News Digital.
Klain, who had left his chief of staff position in then-Vice President Biden's office a year earlier but was the foundation's chairman at the time of the emails, told Hunter that he needed to "tackle a piece of unpleasant business" and needed Hunter's help.
The Vice President's Residence Foundation is a nonprofit entity used to assist in preserving and furnishing the vice president's official residence located on U.S. Naval Observatory grounds.
"The tax lawyers for the VP Residence Foundation have concluded that since the Cheney folks last raised money in 2007 and not 2008, we actually have to have some incoming funds before the end of this fiscal year (i.e., before 9/30/12 – next week) to remain eligible to be a 'public charity,'" Klain said in an email to Hunter.
"It's not much – we need to raise a total of $20,000 – so I'm hitting up a few very close friends on a very confidential basis to write checks of $2,000 each," Klain continued. "We need to keep this low low key, because raising money for the Residence now is bad PR – but it has to be done, so I'm trying to just collect the 10 checks of $2,000, get it done in a week, and then, we can do an event for the Residence Foundation after the election."
Hunter then forwarded the email a few hours later to his longtime business partner, Eric Schwerin...

Just swing a dead cat in a room full of Rats. You’ll hit a dirty one.
Help me out.
How do you come up with this from the fox piece?
Excellent management work. These guys are right on top of their responsibilities. [/s]
Someone did it. Search FR for Klain. Sounds like he runs the show and is Brandon’s master puppeteer.

As far as I know, you can’t even get on the grounds of the USNO without a security clearance. So how does this “charity” ensure that proper repairs are made to the VP residence?
They do the same thing with the White House. Look up the White House Historical Association.

OMG! I couldn’t figure out that thread at all!! The Biden Crime Family and Hunter’s dealings are as spaghettized as the Clinton Crime Family!
The slime that is Hunter Biteme (Demento, Jr.) continues to spread.
That’s why I keep saying, keep the Rutabaga around as long as possible because he will take down the whole Evil Party. He will do what Cankles could not-—infect everyone.
Sounds to me like Hunter was the piggy bank when they needed funny money. Now does anyone really think Joe didn’t tell Klain that Hunter has some of my money, so tap him.
Would it be that embarrassing if it came out that the VP’s residence needed money for repairs? Sorry, I’ve still got a nagging feeling that the $20k was used for some other purpose. Hence, there was the need to keep it “low low key.”
Maybe, but if they were diverting it to themselves it’s hard to imagine they would have forgotten and not raised any money for a year.
