Biden’s brother paid him $200K while seeking Mideast investor for hospital firm
NY Post ^ | 10/20/2023 | Steven Nelson

WASHINGTON — President Biden received a $200,000 check in 2018 from his younger brother James on the same day that he received the same amount from a US hospital chain by promising to secure a Mideast investor, bank records obtained by Congress show.

“This summer, Joe Biden said: ‘Where’s the money?‘ Well, we found some,” House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) said in a video posted Friday afternoon to X.

Comer said James Biden wrote his check to his powerful brother as a “loan repayment,” without providing further context.

“Even if this was a personal loan repayment, it’s still troubling that Joe Biden’s ability to be paid back by his brother depended on the success of his family’s shady financial dealings,” the chairman s

We could save time and find out a lot more if they consulted author and researcher
Peter Schweizer who has been digging into the Biden family’s finances for years.

Schweizer reports:
<><>Joe Biden has an LLC called CelticCapri thru which he runs his money,
<><>on his 2017 and 2018 tax returns, he reported he had $12.6M income during that time
<><>in 2019 Biden runs for president of the United States,
<><>candidate Biden is required to fill out the Office of Government Ethics’ financial disclosure form.
<><>the form says he had $7.4 million in income; 40% less than he told the IRS.
<><>What accounts for Biden’s $5.2 million discrepancy?”

“on the same day that he received the same amount”

Ooooh. That’s what they call, in the financial crimes division, a “passthrough”. If they don’t even bother to attempt to launder the money, but just pass it straight on to the ultimate recipient in the exact amount, and if it was done the same day, it’s even more incriminating.

What kind of “income”? Gross? Net? Net taxable? There are several different categories of income he’d report to the IRS.

Is there any place in the world they haven’t taken cash from.

James Biden’s Role In The Biden Influence Peddling Operation Shows It Was A Family Affair
The Federalist ^ | 10/4/23 | ELLE PURNELL
Posted on 10/4/2023, 4:15:23 PM by CFW

As the Biden family’s corruption scandals tumble out into the open, corporate media badly want you to think the only story here is about Hunter Biden, a struggling drug addict who may have made some unwise decisions while grieving the loss of his brother. The more evidence — from whistleblower testimony to documentation — of President Joe Biden’s involvement arises, the more frantically they shout “no evidence!” and insist the elder Biden was only involved to the extent that he loves his son and talks with his wealthy foreign friends about the weather.

But setting aside the evidence of Joe Biden’s involvement in the access-for-sale scheme — of which there is an abundance — there’s another central figure in the operation. The participation of James Biden, Hunter’s uncle and Joe’s brother, shows just how much of a family affair the scandal is, with Joe Biden, the family’s “only asset,” at the top. So what exactly do we know about James Biden’s involvement?

[snip]

James, his wife Sara, and Hunter went on a $101,291 spending spree with credit cards opened by Hunter and Kevin Dong, who “served as ‘Chairman Ye[’s] CEFC emissary’ in the United States.” The three Bidens purchased “extravagant items, including airline tickets and multiple items at Apple Inc. stores, pharmacies, hotels and restaurants.”

[snip]

Despite telling the IRS “that he recalled not being involved with anything beyond 2017,” James Biden sent a message to Hunter in February 2018 that he was “in a near panic” because “we got nothing in Feb! … Did K [likely Kevin Dong] cut us off in Feb? I thought you had said that $ were wired into your account , 82.5 was on its way. We can’t find any record that was sent. Did I miss something?”

I'll bet half of DC - or more - is busy selling out their county... and their 'power'.

Joe Biden bribed $200,000 by Jim Biden to inveigle mideast investor for Jim’s healthcare business.

SEC has now filed a lawsuit over the shady healthcare business deal involving president’s brother Jim.


A little episode illustrative of the corrupt Biden Crime Family’s MO.
Executives of Americore offered similar accounts of James Biden’s influence peddling .......
<><>he would invoke his brother Joe’s political position of influence
<><>Jim promised Americore “investment funds” from the “Middle East” via his brother
<><>the mideast investor funds never materialized......
<><>Jim Biden thus pushed the firm to grow quickly, taking on new financial liabilities.......
<><>this allowed Jim Biden to get a huge $650,000 company loan that he never paid back....
<><>there’s a pending question of unpaid taxes, as well
<><>James wrote the $200k check to Joe labeled “loan repayment.”


This will sound sickeningly familiar...and I quote:

”A Biden campaign official said that VP candidate Joe Biden NEVER discussed Americore with his brother or expressed support for the business. The official said that Americore’s founder, purchased a ticket to a September 2017 fundraiser for the foundation of the perpetually resurrected, Beau Biden, an event attended by Joe Biden.”

“If the two interacted in any way, it would have been a handshake and nothing more,” the official said.

Rotflol.

In order for it to be a “loan repayment,” Jow would have had to give his brother that money previously.

But Jow was such a skinflint, I can’t imagine him parting with that kind of dough.

So, if no prior cash transaction for the original loan, then no loan, and no loan repayment.

Okay.

If it is truly the repayment of a “loan” to his brother, Joe might be off the hook with the IRS.

But if Jim Biden received $200,000 from the Healthcare industry as a “gift”, then he is definitely on the hook for the taxes.

LOL. I agree. That said, he scored some big cash in 2017 for a book deal so it is likely Joe had the money to loan his brother $200K if the loan was made after the book deal. That said, who would their loan sibling that kind of money with no questions asked...
