From a story from “The Spectator” authored by journalist Charles Lipson today Re: the IRS Whistleblower’s charges vs the Biden’s.
“ The biggest revelation in the Whistleblower’s testimony is a WhatsApp message, supposedly sent on July 20, 2017, from Hunter Biden to Henry Zhao,( Chinese Communist Official) excoriating Zhao for missing a payment deadline. What makes the message so important is not its blunt threat, but its direct invocation of Hunter’s father as part of the business deal and part of the threat.
“I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled… And, Z, if I get a call or text from anyone involved in this other than you, Zhang, or the chairman, I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not following my direction. I am sitting here waiting for the call with my father.”
When the message was sent, in summer 2017, Joe Biden was out of office but widely considered a leading candidate for the Democratic Party presidential nomination in 2020. He has, of course, repeatedly denied any knowledge of his son’s business dealings, much less any involvement or assistance. Those claims are belied by the direct testimony of one of Hunter’s business partners, Tony Bobulinski, who says he met jointly with Joe and Hunter. In addition, Hunter’s business partners made dozens of visits to the White House when Joe was in office and were sometimes photographed with the vice president. The cumulation of that evidence undermines Joe’s claims of complete ignorance. ”
By the way, the “missed” $5.1 million payment, that was eventually made, exactly matches an amount that Joe Biden conveniently left out of his government transparency reports.
Hmmm. Something appears very rotten in Delaware, and elsewhere.
