More trouble keeps popping up for Hunter Biden, the son of former vice president and 2020 hopeful Joe Biden.
This time it’s news that the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has placed a tax lien against Hunter and his ex-wife seeking nearly $113,000 in unpaid taxes from 2015.
The IRS placed the lien in November 2018 (funny how stuff like that doesn’t get widely reported when it’s Democrats) and it is seeking unpaid taxes for a year in which Hunter served on the boards of the Ukrainian natural gas company Burisma Holdings and the Chinese private equity firm BHR Partners.
“We have made a demand for payment of this liability, but it remains unpaid,” the IRS stated in the lien notice, which it filed with the Washington, D.C., Recorder of Deeds. “Therefore, there is a lien in favor of the United States on all property and rights to property belonging to this taxpayer for the amount of these taxes.”
Can you just imagine if it was Donald Trump Jr. who had a lien placed on him for unpaid taxes?
The entire Fake News media would be going ape with stories of criminality and coverups and the like. But since it’s Hunter Biden? Meh.
I am now waiting for House Democrats to impeach Trump again for the IRS doing its job by seeking past tax debts from Hunter Biden. After all, he’s the son of Trump’s political rival, am I right? #SMH
The tax lien for $112,805 for unpaid taxes in 2015 was issued against Hunter Biden and his ex-wife, Kathleen Biden. It was delivered to the same address Hunter has on file with them that is also linked to his law firm, Owasco PC.
As of this writing, it doesn’t look like Hunter Biden has resolved his tax lien as there are no official documents showing the release of the lien with the DC Recorder of Deeds.
From The Daily Caller:
Washington, D.C., also placed a tax lien against Hunter and Kathleen Biden for $48,929 in unpaid income taxes for 2015. Records show the city released the lien in August 2017.
Hunter Biden was appointed to the board of Burisma in 2014, a post he held until 2019. Hunter Biden did not receive any direct compensation from Burisma — rather, the Ukrainian company wired funds to Rosemont Seneca Bohai (RSB), an American firm controlled by Hunter Biden’s longtime business partner Devon Archer. Between June 2014 and October 2015, RSB wired a total of $708,302 to Hunter Biden each month for undisclosed purposes while RSB was receiving funds from Burisma.
During that 17-month time frame, in June 2015, Rosemont Seneca Bohai obtained a 20% equity stake in BHR Partners, the Chinese private equity firm that Hunter Biden served on the board of starting in 2013.
Hunter Biden announced in October that he would resign from BHR’s board by the end of that month, but Chinese business records the DCNF accessed on Dec. 29 still list him as a member of the firm’s board.
