News Thursday of payments from a Chinese Communist Party-linked company to members of President Joe Biden’s family amounts to a potential case for bribery, an impeachable offense under the Constitution.
The House Oversight Committee revealed that in 2017, China’s State Energy HK Limited sent $3 million to a company controlled by family associate Robert Walker, who in turn distributed funds to members of Biden’s family: his surviving son, Hunter; his brother, James; his daughter-in-law, Hallie; and an unknown “Biden.”
State Energy HK Limited was linked to CEFC China Energy, whose chairman, Ye Jianming, did business with Hunter Biden. CEFC was also involved in an abandoned joint venture with the Biden family in which someone referred to as the “big guy,” and presumed to be then-former Vice President Biden, was to have a 10% stake.
It is not clear what goods or services, if any, were provided in exchange for these payments.
Hunter Biden’s legal team issued a statement, claiming that he had engaged in a “legitimate” private business venture with a Chinese company: “As part of that joint venture, Hunter received his portion of good faith seed funds which he shared with his uncle, James Biden, and Hallie Biden, with whom he was involved with at the time, and sharing expenses.”
It was not clear what, exactly, that “joint venture” was, or how it was arranged.
Hunter Biden’s overseas business ventures had been recognized as early as 2015 as a potential conflict of interest for his father. Diplomats and journalists questioned Hunter Biden’s appointment to the board of Ukrainian energy company Burisma, where he earned $83,333 per month, despite lacking relevant expertise, while his father was in office.

Bribery and using your position to gain wealth from a foreign nation qualify as “high crimes and misdemeanors.”
We’ll see what happens.
Dems control the Senate, so nothing will happen. Remember Clinton?
I think killing the US fossil fuel industry was a good enough quid pro quo for the Chinese makers of windmills and solar cells. Besides, the Chinese know that the windmills and solar cells will never power an industry economy, so they are just slitting our throat with that crap. They WIN BIG by having Biden kill fossil fuels in the USA.
Doesn’t matter. Too many Repukes support Joe.
Like it’s really gonna happen. November 2024. o it after the elections. Waste the time. Let the senate cut it off at the knees before Trump and both houses(gop) take over. Make it quick enough to show that 2 can play this game.
Put that one on the list. Check the filing system. I think that one belongs in the international, family brokered, non military contractor subsection. East Asia division.
And monkeys can fly out of my butt
Time to get rid of this clown asap, if charges are correct. He has been compromised for sometime by the Chinese Communists.
How can you impeach a president who hasn’t finished starting his war yet?
Joe Biden can be impeached for any reason a majority of the House decides. That’s the lesson from the Trump impeachments. It is purely political.
Biden should be impeached/imprisoned for at least a half dozen things. Marshmellow balls republicans absent.
There isn’t any Republicans with cojones big enough to dare to take him on. He’d eat them alive.
2017. Dems will argue that he cannot be impeached for bribes received before he became President.
It’s not bribery or influence peddling……
They were selling classified information. The media is playing you.
Yeah, but pretty much everyone on this forum knows what will happen - nothing!
.
While I applaud Comer, are his associates planning on writing a stern letter - to no one in particular?
You have to wonder what the plan is.
It seems nothing will get the Republicans on TV calling Joe a Criminal, in clear language.
.
Anyone who has paid attention has to be in agreement with your sentiments.
They Love Joe.
That's true enough... All O'Biden need do is threaten to call them raciest, or maybe Homophob and they role up in a ball and start sucking their thump.....
Impeach the ah*le now. That entire Biden family is corrupt to the core.
