There is nothing to see these, as has always been the case. Because Joe Biden claimed he wasn’t involved in his son’s business and we should take him at his word in this particular instance of all times, we don’ need to worry about it. It makes no difference if he was calling in or attending events with his son’s business partners. The vice president of the nation acting in this manner is entirely regular. And we don’t need to worry that Biden’s threat to stop providing international aid to Ukraine unless a prosecutor Burisma wanted fired was fired had anything to do with the latter. If you have any doubts, take a look at Biden’s employees making proper talking points while their boss was joking around with his business partners. Joe Biden’s vice presidency was questioned by the House Oversight Committee on Wednesday about the” dubious” timing of his alleged communications with Burisma Holdings, a Russian natural gas company.
On December 4, 2015, Hunter Biden reportedly called his father from Dubai with Burisma owner Mykola Zlochevsky and board adviser Vadym Pozharskyi. Committee chairman James Comer ( R-Ky.) wrote to the National Archives on the same day.
Comer wrote to Archivist Colleen Shogan,” On December 4, 2015, at 10:45 a.m., Eric Schwerin( a lifelong business associate of the Biden family”) sent an email to Kate Bedingfield in the Vice President’s Office requesting quotes the White House should use in response to media outreach regarding Hunter Bden’S role in Burisma.”
Later that day, at 2:30 p.m., Ms. Bedingfield responded to Mr. Schwerin by writing,” VP signed off on this ,” according to Comer. And those talking points ought to put an end to the entire situation. Hunter Biden is a secret citizen and an attorney, according to the approved quote. The Vice President has no affiliation with and does not support any specific business. The Vice President has actively pushed for Ukraine to make every effort to look into and prosecute corruption in accordance with the law for years, both publicly and with organizations like the US-Ukraine Business Forum as well as privately in meetings with[ sic ] Ukrainian leaders. The Vice President has no involvement with the company whose head he was chatting with, and his trip to Ukraine will in no way advance their interests, so it will once again be a major focus during his visit this week. The level of cynicism that is crooked around is astounding. It’s a lie to say,” The Vice President does not endorse any particular company and has no involvement with this company.” Biden was aware that it was a lie.
This has been the consistent message. We don’t have to worry about Joe Biden being involved in the business of his son because he has said that he is not. This is unique and we should take his word. It doesn’t really matter if he dropped by events or called in to his son’s business partner. This is perfectly normal for a vice president to do.
Biden approved press statements about Burisma which paid his son Hunter Biden $1,000,000 per year on Dec. 4, 2015. The same day Hunter called his dad in Dubai with Burisma owner Mykola Zochevsky and Burisma Board adviser Vadym Pzharskyi. Committee chairman James Comer, (R-Ky. ), wrote to the National Archives.
“On December 4, 2015 at 10:45 am, Eric Schwerin — a long-time Biden family business partner — wrote to Kate Bedingfield (in the Office of Vice President) providing quotes that the White House could use to respond to media outreach about Hunter Biden’s involvement in Burisma,” wrote Comer to Archivist Colleen Schogan.
Comer wrote: “Later that same day, at 2:30 pm, Ms. Bedingfield replied to Mr. Schwerin by saying ‘VP signed this’.” And those talking points should settle the matter. The approved quote read: Hunter Biden is a citizen and an attorney. The Vice President has no connection with this company. The Vice President has been pushing Ukraine for years to investigate and prosecute corrupt practices in accordance with law. This is done both publicly, with groups such as the US-Ukraine Business Forum, and privately with Ukrainian leaders. The Vice President’s trip to Ukraine this week will be a major focus. “The Vice-President has no connection with the company that he was talking to and his trip will not in any way further their interests. The level of corrupt cynicism is astounding.” Biden knew that it was a falsehood.
