For years, Americans have heard that the Bidens personally profited from foreign governments. Now we’ve found the smoking gun.
Because Joe Biden’s ties to Hunter have been exposed in one incriminating email.
A newly discovered document apparently provides evidence that Hunter Biden worked with Chinese state-linked CEFC China Energy while his father was vice president, as believed by Republicans leading the impeachment investigation into the president’s alleged wrongdoing.
Despite his apparent association with two Chinese government-backed enterprises, notably CEFC, President Biden has repeatedly denied his family received money from China.
“We anticipate working together on a number of opportunities in the US and abroad,” says the potentially damning March 22, 2016, letter addressed to CEFC Executive Director Jianjun Zang on Hunter’s letterhead about 10 months before his dad Joe left office as vice president.
“I believe we have presented a collection of projects that parallel the interests of you and your team and we look forward to discussing them in detail,” reads the draft letter to Zang, which was emailed to Hunter and his partners Rob Walker and James Gilliar as an attachment.
“As we await your next visit to the United States, please continue to coordinate all matters with my confidant and trusted advisor, James Gilliar,” the contents of the letter read.

Walker presented the paper to the House impeachment inquiry prior to his closed-door appearance on January 26 — which also supported some of the letter’s claims with other supposed proof.
The email was included in his interview transcript, which was published on Tuesday.
It is unclear whether the letter, presumably signed by Hunter, ever reached Zang, and if so, whether any of the text was changed.
According to emails, Hunter’s assistant was supposed to send the letter to China once it had been authorized.
Hunter Biden and his brother James Biden collected more than $7 million from CEFC between 2017 and 2018, according to House Republicans.
Joe and Hunter Biden have neither verified or denied the start date of their CEFC partnership, but Hunter is expected to be probed on the subject during his own deposition later this month.
Tony Bobulinski, another longtime Biden family associate, was in the hot seat at a closed-door impeachment hearing on Tuesday.
He is one of the Republicans’ best hopes for confirming incriminating revelations about the president’s ties with his families’ Chinese government-linked relationships.
President Biden has claimed that, in addition to his family never receiving money from China, he had no interactions with his relatives’ business associates, and that Hunter’s abandoned laptop was Russian misinformation — statements that have been debunked.
According to laptop evidence, images, and witness accounts, Joe Biden, as vice president, engaged with first son Hunter and first brother James Biden’s supporters from Russia, Mexico, Kazakhstan, and Ukraine, as well as having coffee with the CEO of a previous Chinese state-backed Hunter Biden enterprise in 2013.
In a court filing Tuesday, the Justice Department stated that it handed Hunter’s defense team a firearms case with a “complete and identical” copy of the famed laptop seized by the FBI in 2019 from a Delaware repair shop, as reported by the New York Post.
Hunter’s representatives and Democrats have yet to use that data to back up their assertions that some publicly published evidence against the president may have been doctored.
