National Archives just torpedoed Joe Biden's 'I know nothing' defense
foxnews ^ | 3/23/2023 | jonathan turley

President Biden has continued to deny that he was part of any dealings with companies and countries that benefitted his family.

For years, President Biden has maintained a Sgt. Schultz defense ("I know nothing, nothing!") to counter allegations that his family has profiteered on influence peddling with foreign countries and companies.

Despite mounting evidence to the contrary, Biden maintains that he "knows nothing, nothing" about son Hunter Biden's business deals. He recently doubled down on this defense by even denying that family members received money from foreign sources. He repeated his denial even after the release of financial transfer reports from his own administration showing millions transferred from China.

Now, emails have emerged that show that Biden personally helped draft responses to the controversial deals in 2015 when he was vice president. It also appears that Biden officials like former White House communications director Kate Bedingfield knew of his role even as the president continued to deny any involvement.

The National Archives has released emails that show that then-Vice President Biden approved an official statement in December 2015 about Hunter Biden’s position on a Ukrainian energy company’s board.

Biden has denied any knowledge or involvement in these business dealings at least seven times as a presidential candidate and as president.

For years, the media has continued to report President Biden’s repeated claim that "I have never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings."

If this were Trump, not Biden... the entire MSN would be in a meltdown calling for Trump to resign and his impeachment would be rushed through the house. The stench of leftist/Dem memes depicting Trump being arrested, lynched and dragged through the streets would be flooding social media!

Riots would break-out and be ongoing in all blue cities/states for days! Burning, looting and destruction by rabid lynch-mobs looking for MEGA hats and Trump supporters.

Since this is Biden... crickets.

If it were Nixon or Reagan, the “press” would do the story 24 hours a day.

The “know nothing” defense doesn’t work for ordinary Americans. Another example of the two tier injustice system.
