Newly discovered emails show that Hunter Biden and an associate discussed plans to include then-Vice President Joe Biden in future business plans. The bombshell emails lend credence to those who say Joe Biden was part of a pay-for-play scheme. “In order to develop this as a platform for both JRBs I think it is imperative we (the three of us) have full control come 2016 when JRB1 comes on board,” Hunter Biden wrote to Jeff Cooper back in 2014.
