The deal was years in the making, the culmination of forging contacts, hosting dinners, of flights to and from China. But on Aug. 2, 2017, signatures were quickly affixed, one from Hunter Biden, the other from a Chinese executive named Gongwen Dong.

Within days, a new Cathay Bank account was created. Within a week, millions of dollars started to change hands.

While many aspects of Hunter Biden’s financial arrangement with CEFC China Energy have been previously reported and were included in a Republican-led Senate report from 2020, a Washington Post review confirmed many of the key details and found additional documents showing Biden family interactions with Chinese executives.

Over the course of 14 months, the Chinese energy conglomerate and its executives paid $4.8 million to entities controlled by Hunter Biden and his uncle, according to government records, court documents and newly disclosed bank statements, as well as emails contained on a copy of a laptop hard drive that purportedly once belonged to Hunter Biden.

But the new documents — which include a signed copy of a $1 million legal retainer, emails related to the wire transfers, and $3.8 million in consulting fees that are confirmed in new bank records and agreements signed by Hunter Biden — illustrate the ways in which his family profited from relationships built over Joe Biden’s decades in public service.

LOL ... it was not influence-peddling, it was "profiting from relationships". What dishonest garbage! Hunter had exactly NOTHING to sell except the Big Guy's influence.

Yes. The senile sock puppet is off his leash, and the Communist ‘RATS won’t abide it.

The new stuff Maxey is finding on the "laptop from hell" has to be extremely bad. MSM can't completely ignore it since several outlets were given HD images..

The Post finally decided to print the story a year and a half late.

They are simply setting the narrative that yes Hunter did bad stuff, but Joe had no idea. Innocent. Clueless. But not criminal. Anything to th contrary is disinformation.

It is getting easier every day to sell Joe being clueless.

The WP?

Joe is in the process of “deep sixing” the Democrat party thus they must get rid of him. However, Kamala is worse for the Dems than Joe. They must get rid of both and I do not know how they get rid of Kamala. She wants desperately to sit in the Oval Office and send Joe to Delaware permanently.

Joe should get a food taster.

A thousand times this. Hunter this and Hunter that - the house organ of the Deep State prints a lengthy piece designed to give the appearance of exhaustive "reporting" but it's all a huge smokescreen to obscure any connection to The Big Guy.

WaPo runs this? Ok, you are right. They are done with him. How they get rid of him without making themselves look incredibly crooked is another thing.

[devane617]

I disagree...This is about getting rid of Biden. I expect Harris to resign any day and Hillary to be appointed VP...Then guess what...

I am watching Bannon’s War Room. He abused the author of this article. This information was reported on War Room in September 2020.

After expenses and personnel costs, the bulk of the money, about $4.8 million, was directed over a 14-month period, usually in increments of $165,000, to an account linked to Hunter Biden, the documents show. During that time period, about $1.4 million was transferred from Hunter’s account to Lion Hall Group, the consulting firm that James Biden ran, according to other government records reviewed by The Post.

They are pay-offs, pure and simple. Notice how there is no description of Biden's work description, or projects managed? Corrupt as hell.

"Joe should get a food taster."

Didn't they just announce he's ready for his fourth(?) booster shot?
