Report: Hunter Biden Demanded $2 Million Plus ‘Success Fees’ to Unfreeze Libyan Assets
Breitbart ^ | 09/23/2021 | Wendell Husebo

Posted on 09/23/2021 11:39:44 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Hunter Biden reportedly demanded a $2 million retainer plus “success fees” to unlock Libyan assets frozen by the Obama-Biden administration, according to newly discovered emails obtained by Business Insider. Though President Joe Biden has claimed ignorance about Hunter’s family business schemes, the emails suggest otherwise.

“The first email, dated January 28, 2015, was sent from Sam Jauhari, a Democratic donor with businesses in the Persian Gulf, who was helping spearhead the Libya project,” Business Insider reported Thursday. “It was addressed to Sheikh Mohammed al-Rahbani, another Obama campaign donor involved in the proposal. In the email, Jauhari is frank about what Biden would bring to the table, and what he says Biden wanted in return”:

What’s a little shakedown amongst friends? Imagine if one of Trump’s family did something like this.

Sheikh Mohammed al-Rahbani, another Obama campaign donor

Is he an American? Maybe my understanding of campaign finance law is flawed but can foreigners or green card/visa holders make political donations?

Whatever I do know about campaign finance laws, it seems they have all found ways to flaunt them.

“mind crushing outrageous”

Yes, it is. Absolutely appalling. So far over the top that there should be indictments, perp walks, trials and executions. But none of that will happen.

The Sussman indictment exposed so much of the Dem plan to run Trump out of office that it should trigger the same. But nothing will happen.

Seriously there is way too much going on here to just be incompetence, carelessness or inattention. There are so many ties to China, direct and indirect over the many years. The latest eyebrow raise being the way we abandoned Afghanistan, all their minerals, and so much equipment you just know Chinese emissaries are in there right now cutting deals. And you just know a pipeline will eventually get built from Iran through Afghanistan into China allowing Iran to circumvent all foreign sanctions.

The ties to Ukraine, and Russia too. Biden shut down the US-Canadian pipeline but supported the Russia to Germany pipeline. And then goes to the UN and on TV to talk about carbon emissions.

It’s just too much obvious contradiction to be anything other than corruption in my mind.

I’ll field that one. It’s because the media protects all things Democrat. Had this been one of Trump’s kids, it would be the lead story on every major news station.

We no longer have a watchdog media. So these excesses will become more common, and more extreme.

Don’t bother reporting these things. Nothing is going to happen Hunter Biden or the son or daughter of any connected RAT.

New book reveals how Joe Biden’s family used his position for profit
New York Post ^ | September 13, 2021 | Ben Schreckinger
FR Posted on 9/13/2021, 11:40:53 AM by karpov

In January 2006, Hunter Biden was a lobbyist for William Oldaker, who had served as a campaign counsel and treasurer to Joe Biden.

Jim Biden, Joe’s younger brother, called his friend Anthony Lotito for a favor. Hunter needed a new job.

Joe was getting ready to run for the Democratic presidential nomination, and his son’s work for a Washington lobbying firm would be a problem.

At least that was what Lotito later alleged in court filings. Jim and Hunter denied that a call like that ever took place. One way or another, the three of them decided in early 2006 to get into the hedge-fund business.

Owning a hedge fund in New York in the years before the financial crisis was like being a sea captain in 18th-century Nantucket. It was the thing to do.

They set their eyes on Paradigm Global Advisors, founded by James Park, who was married to the daughter of religious leader Sun Myung Moon.

Paradigm’s success was helped by the fact that the firm’s labor costs were low. Many of its employees were Moonies who accepted rock-bottom salaries in exchange for the honor of working in close proximity to Moon’s son-in-law.

About half of its investors were Moonies as well, according to a former executive. Financial success could not solve Park’s personal problems, however. He developed an addiction to cocaine. As his drug use began to complicate his management of Paradigm, Park went looking for a buyer. Lotito connected him with the Bidens.

Jim and Hunter offered to buy the firm out for $21 million. For financing, they leaned on family allies.

Larry Rasky, a lobbyist and longtime political adviser to Joe, was going to pitch in a million dollars in financing, though it is not clear if he ever did.

Thousands of innocent family members were killed under Trump. And under Obama. And under Bush. It is far past time that we got out of there. Now we need to stay out and let it go too crap like it always does.
