If only it was their names that got them these payoffs.

In reality, it is from laundering much bigger amounts of money from the US Treasury, divulging US secrets, or selling US policy decisions, at the cost of American workers and taxpayers, that they get these payoffs.

Not even pennies on the dollar, they typically squander at least in the thousands for every dollar they are bribed. They are desperate to sell their offices, and the corrupters know that they only need to pay tiny percentages.

But they won’t pay just for a name - there has to be some tangible value on the table, before they start handing over hard cash, for Hunter to waste on drugs and hookers.

Yes, I know that these “jobs” are payoffs for deals. China most likely was rewarding Biden for trade deals in their favor and for allowing China to steal intellectual property with impunity.

I cannot figure what Ukraine got from the deal.

It's not just their names and connections that got them the Big paydays;
sucking off the backs of working class American taxpayers is the REAL MO....

Great point...... so very true. Read on.

THE SMOKING GUN---WSJ REPORT--On Jan 20, 2009 Timothy Geithner was appointed Obama's Secy of the Treasury. But within three weeks, the Obama White House tightened its grip on Treasury. Obama put his COS, Rahm Emanuel, in charge of Treasury---Rahm Emanuel's dual role was an unusual move. When he got to Treasury, WH COS Rahm Emanuel was so involved in the inner workings that the phrase "Rahm wants it" had become an unofficial mantra among subservient govt staffers, prostrate in obeisance, scurrying to accede to Rahm's wishes, according to Treasury government officials.
