Hunter Biden is walking away from the board of a Chinese-backed private equity company as part of a public pledge to disavow all foreign work if his father, former U.S. Vice President Joe Biden, gains the presidency in 2020. Joe Biden’s second son made his move after a month of pushing by U.S. President Donald Trump who has publicly highlighted the perceived – and real – conflicts of interest represented by Biden’s work in Asia.
A statement released on his behalf by his legal counsel George Mesires said his relationship with the management company of a private equity fund that’s backed by Chinese state-owned entities will end within weeks.
The 49-year-old doesn’t state whether he will be divesting from BHR (Shanghai) Equity Investment Fund Management Company. The company was set up in 2013 to invest Chinese capital outside of China.
Instead the young Biden pledged he wouldn’t work for any foreign-owned companies or serve on their boards during a potential Biden administration.
“Hunter always understood that his father would be guided, entirely and unequivocally, by established U.S. policy, regardless of its effects on Hunter’s professional interests,” the statement said. “He never anticipated the barrage of false charges against both him and his father by the President of the United States.”
Just two days ago Trump again highlighted the problem of Hunter Biden seeking work overseas during a political rally in Louisiana, as Breitbart News reported.

Uh, ah.
If you did nothing wrong, then stand up and fight, you coward.

Speaking of China, does anyone else ever wonder if CALPERS’ sizable investment in China explains a lot about the anti-American insanity going on in California...

Not a single falsehood. Or he want to somehow say he got a $50,000 a month job in an industry he knew nothing about because of his charm?
Stepping down from doing nothing is not difficult. So he takes his name off the list. Big whoop. He’s got the money and may continue to get more.
Some people are just born with natural talents. Take, for instance, Hunter’s advice to that Ukrainian oligarch to buy a Pizza Hut franchise. Brilliant! I would never have thought of that. I’m not sure if it’s a blessing or a curse to go through life with such creative thought processes constantly flowing through your mind.
If Hunter and Joe Biden are the moral truth angels they portray themselves to be they would immediately return the $1.5 billion to China and ALL the money they got from the Ukraine. Are they the moral and ethical men they tell us they are? No, quite the opposite. Demonstrably they are crooks as President Trump has called them.
Translation: he’ll keep the money.

Ha haaaaa!!! That's some industrial strength polish he's applying to that turd.
In this world there’s a number of different lines to cross
The first one is Immoral
The second is unethical
The third is illegal
Hunter hasn’t walked away from anything. There is the big “IF” his father gains the presidency. “So the money keeps rolling in from all directions” to quote an apropros song from “Evita”
If I did nothing right, I would fight like hell to protect my integrity.
This coked-up punk MUST be subpoenaed to testify at any impeachment hearings/trials. Congressional GOP, do your jobs.
Hunter Biden isn't the only drug addicted loser offspring of some democrat white liberal elite in Washington... feeding off the 'fears and hopes of corrupt countries forced to offer bribes to the thugs running the United States.

I knew what you meant. And you damn well know that if Hunter Biden WAS innocent of wrongdoing, he absolutely WOULD be fighting like hell. And every demonicRAT and every member of the Fake News Media would be lining up to beat the living daylights out of President Trump like that scene in “Airplane” where the passengers line up to settle that hysterical woman down.
