U.S. relations with China were steady in December 2013 when then-Vice President Joe Biden stepped off Air Force Two in Beijing with a seemingly unremarkable companion: his son Hunter.
Days later, Shanghai authorities approved the formation of an investment boutique, underwritten by Chinese government money, that named Hunter Biden as a director and later cut him an ownership share at a discounted price. Roughly four months afterward, he began earning up to $1 million annually for sitting on a corporate board in Ukraine, a country his father paid special attention to as vice president. Hunter Biden would go on to earn millions more from a brief association with a Chinese energy-and-finance conglomerate trying to break into the U.S.
The younger Biden’s foreign business activities loom larger than ever a decade after that trip, with President Biden seeking re-election as a grinding Justice Department investigation and a determined probe by congressional Republicans scrutinize where Hunter Biden made money overseas and what he got paid to do.
Last month prosecutors told a judge that as they continue to investigate Hunter Biden’s activities, he faces the possibility of being prosecuted under the Foreign Agents Registration Act, which requires Americans who talk to U.S. government officials or the media on behalf of foreign parties to register that relationship. A review by The Wall Street Journal of the younger Biden’s business activities shows the areas where he interacted with foreign entities and received money from them.
No evidence has emerged to show President Biden benefited from his son’s international commercial endeavors, nor that he wielded government authority to favor them. And the president isn’t a target of the Justice Department investigation.
“Hunter Biden did not involve his father in, nor did his father assist him in, any of his business,” a spokeswoman for Hunter...

But Joe was not in any way, shape or form involved in Hunter’s “business”.
RIIGGGHHHHTTTTT!
Joe Biden took bribes and he is a sell-out to foreign interests. Keep it simple.
Fake News. The entire biden crime family benefited and you know such lying Wall Street journal ……
Meanwhile, the Clintons are still free as a bird. All that talk in the 90s about how everything was unraveling for them was pure rubbish.
p
Continue to let it simmer, slowly turning up the heat. By next spring/early summer, it’ll be too huge for the MSM to ignore and Biden will be dogged by questions and accusations. (Well, at least in a fair world.)

FIRST ON FOX: Hunter Biden traveled to at least 13 countries with his then-vice president father when he was leading his now-defunct business firm Rosemont Seneca Partners, a Fox News Digital review found.
Video footage, which first aired on “Jesse Watters Primetime,” along with Secret Service records and messages previously reported from Hunter’s abandoned laptop, show that Hunter, who co-founded Rosemont Seneca in 2009 with Devon Archer and Christopher Heinz (John Kerry’s stepson), accompanied Obama’s then-VP Joe Biden during official trips to Europe, Africa, Asia and Mexico.
In April 2010, Hunter proposed meeting state officials in Serbia with his business associate Mark Doyle, who was a registered foreign agent for Serbia at the time, saying he could “catch a ride” with his father - “JRB” - during an official trip to Belgium and Spain.
“How about we go over around May 10th,” Hunter wrote in an email to Doyle. “JRB will be in Madrid and I can catch a ride with him and fly over to Serbia and back with you.”
Doyle, who formerly served as a senior adviser to then-Sen. Joe Biden and the national finance director of Biden’s unsuccessful presidential run in 2008, later responded that “the Ambassador,” referring to Serbian Ambassador to the United States Vladimir Petrovic, wanted to “start putting together a full day for you with Tadic and potential investors,” referring to Serbian President Boris Tadic.
Eric Schwerin, then-president of Rosemont Seneca, replied to Hunter and Doyle explaining that “Hunter would like to try and get to Serbia right after going to Madrid with his Dad,” and that while he didn’t have a “specific investment opportunity to pitch,” he was hoping to talk “in general about Rosemont Seneca and the investment opportunities,” according to a previous Fox News Digital report.
