All told, \u2063House Republicans presented more than two dozen pieces of evidence on Thursday linking Joe Biden to\u2063 his son\u2019s \u200doverseas business\u200c dealings.<\/p>\n<p>This evidence was the\u2064 centerpiece of the hearing Thursday, which served to lay the groundwork for the impeachment inquiry. So far, \u200dthe evidence suggests the\u200d Biden \u200dfamily \u200b\u201cbusiness\u201d is exactly what it appears\u200b to be:\u200b an influence-peddling scheme on a scale never before\u2063 seen in American \u200chistory. \u2063George \u2064Washington University law professor \u200cJonathan Turley, who \u200ctestified at the hearing,\u2062 said that even though Washington, D.C., \u200cis \u201cawash\u201d in influence-peddling,\u2064 he\u2019s never seen\u2062 \u201canything of this\u2062 size \u2062and complexity,\u201d\u2063 and that Congress has a \u201cduty to\u200c determine if the president is involved in what is a known form of corruption.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Based on what we already know, it\u2019s hard to \u200bsee how Joe \u2063Biden \u200bcouldn\u2019t have \u2064been involved or couldn\u2019t \u200dhave benefited from his son\u2019s corrupt dealings. \u2062Consider \u200bjust a few items\u2063 of evidence mentioned during Thursday\u2019s \u200chearing. In one text exchange with his uncle in June\u200b 2017, Hunter refers \u2062to his father as his \u201cfamily\u2019s brand\u201d\u200b and \u201conly\u2063 asset.\u201d That echoes something Devon Archer, Hunter\u2019s \u200bformer \u200cbusiness partner, said in his July testimony to the House Oversight\u2064 Committee, that the \u200cvalue \u200dof adding Hunter to the board\u200d of the Ukrainian energy firm Burisma was \u201cthe brand\u201d \u2014 clearly\u2063 a reference to then-Vice President Joe\u2063 Biden. (Hunter had no experience in the energy \u200bsector and brought no value to the company other than access to\u2062 his father.)<\/p>\n<p>Rep.\u2062 Nancy \u2063Mace\u2063 of\u200d South Carolina brought up an \u200bFBI memo released Wednesday \u2063by the\u200d House \u200dWays and Means Committee\u2063 about\u200b another former business\u200c partner \u2062of Hunter\u2019s, Tony Bobulinksi. In\u2062 an FBI interview, Bobulinksi said that \u200din 2015-16\u200d Hunter and Hunter\u2019s uncle James did business with CEFC, a Chinese\u2062 company with close ties to the Chinese \u2064government. But because Biden was \u200cstill vice\u200d president,\u200b Hunter and James weren\u2019t paid right away. \u201cThere was a concern it \u200bwould be improper,\u201d Bobulinksi said, because of the\u2063 company\u2019s affiliation with the Chinese Communist Party.<\/p>\n<p>But Hunter and \u200dJames wanted to get paid. \u2064According to Bobulinksi, \u201cthey believed \u200cCEFC\u200b owed them money for the benefits that accrued to\u200c CEFC \u200bthrough its use \u2063of the Biden family name \u2064to advance their business dealings.\u201d Once Biden left office, Hunter and \u200cJames were paid \u200bmore than a million dollars by CEFC. \u201cNow we \u2062know why,\u201d said\u200b Mace. \u201cBecause it was back-pay.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Later\u2063 in the hearing,\u200d Rep. Byron Donalds of Florida showed organizational charts of Hunter Biden\u2019s businesses created by\u2063 the IRS team investigating the president\u2019s son, including from 2014, when Joe\u200c Biden was vice\u2063 president,\u2063 and 2018, when\u2063 he was a private citizen. \u2062The charts show a \u2063dizzying array of interrelated companies \u2014 none of which involved\u200c real estate or any other industry \u200dwhere you would\u2064 typically see this kind of complex matrix of \u2063different business entities\u2064 and shell \u2064companies. Donalds then shared\u2062 a\u2063 text message between Hunter and James Biden in which\u2062 Hunter, discussing a business \u200ddeal, tells his uncle, \u201cYou\u2019ve been drawn into something purely for the\u2063 purpose\u2062 of\u200d protecting Dad.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This is just a sample, but you get the idea. Hunter was engaged in a patently corrupt scheme that involved selling access\u2064 to his father, one \u200cof the most powerful politicians on the planet. \u200bThe question the impeachment inquiry has to\u200d answer \u2063is whether Joe Biden\u2062 knew about the scheme,\u200d whether he profited\u2062 from it, whether he intentionally helped Hunter, and whether he changed U.S. policy as part of rendering that help.\u2062 On \u200devery count, there is mounting evidence that the answer is \u2064\u201cyes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But don\u2019t \u200cexpect Democrats\u2062 to take \u2064any of this more seriously than the corporate \u200cmedia\u200b are. Democratic \u200dRep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, never \u200bone to miss\u200d an opportunity for self-parody, gravely \u2063asked\u200d all three \u200bRepublican witnesses whether they were \u201cpresenting \u200bany\u2062 firsthand witness account of crimes \u200dcommitted \u200cby the president of the United States,\u201d as if the\u200b only \u2063evidence that counts\u200d is video\u200d footage of Joe Biden stuffing cash into \u200ba\u200b duffel bag marked \u201c$$$\u200d from China.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Not\u2063 to be outdone in\u2062 performative stupidity, Rep. Jasmine Crockett, a \u200bDemocrat \u200cfrom Texas, went on\u200b a bizarre, emotional rant claiming President\u200b Biden \u2062is only \u201cguilty of\u200d loving \u200bhis child \u200cunconditionally,\u201d which is the only evidence Republicans have brought forward. She added, \u201cAnd honestly, I hope and pray that \u200cmy parents \u2063love me half as much as he loves his child.\u201d Ah yes, Joe Biden loved his son so \u200dmuch that he\u2062 made him the frontman of an international bribery scheme and\u200b money-laundering operation.<\/p>\n<p>So \u200cmuch for the opposition (including the corporate press).\u200c They aren\u2019t going \u2063to take this seriously,\u200b even if\u2064 the impeachment inquiry\u2064 turns \u200bup \u2062audio recordings of Joe Biden saying, \u201cWhy\u200c yes, I did fire\u200d that Ukrainian prosecutor for $5\u200d million \u2064from\u2062 Burisma.\u201d Democrats \u2063and the\u2063 media don\u2019t care\u2062 about Biden\u2019s corruption and won\u2019t tell the truth about it, no\u200d matter what evidence comes to light. After Thursday\u2019s\u2064 hearing, at least that\u2062 much is \u2063clear.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\">\n<\/div>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2> How \u200chas \u200dthe\u2062 media&#8217;s coverage of the\u2063 House impeachment inquiry into President\u2062 Joe Biden \u2063been concerning, according to the title?<\/h2>\n<p><span>  The media&#8217;s blackout on the House \u200bimpeachment inquiry into \u2062President Joe Biden is deeply concerning.

Hunter \u2063had no relevant experience \u2064in the \u200benergy sector, \u2062indicating that \u2062his \u2062father&#8217;s influence was the\u200c only value \u200che \u2063brought\u2064 to\u200c the company.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally,\u200c Rep. Nancy Mace highlighted an FBI memo released by\u200d the House\u200b Ways and Means Committee concerning Tony Bobulinksi, \u2064another former\u2062 business partner of Hunter&#8217;s. According to Bobulinksi&#8217;s FBI interview, Hunter\u2064 and James conducted business\u200d with\u2063 CEFC, a Chinese company closely \u200btied to the Chinese government, in 2015-16. However, because Biden was \u2063still vice\u2064 president\u200c at the time, they were not paid\u2062 immediately due to concerns about impropriety. Once Biden left\u2064 office, \u2064they received over \u200ba million dollars from CEFC, which Bobulinksi describes\u2063 as back-pay for using the Biden \u2062family name to \u200badvance their \u200bbusiness dealings.<\/p>\n<p>Further revelations came from Rep. Byron Donalds, who displayed organizational \u2063charts of\u2063 Hunter Biden&#8217;s \u200bbusinesses created by the IRS team\u2063 investigating him. These charts show a complex network of interrelated companies, none of which are in industries typically associated with such intricate business structures. \u2063Donalds also shared a \u2064text message between Hunter and James Biden in which Hunter\u200d states that James was drawn into something purely for the purpose \u200cof \u200cprotecting their\u2064 father.<\/p>\n<p>These examples only scratch the surface \u200dof the damning evidence\u2064 against Joe Biden. It is crucial for the media to \u200ccover the impeachment inquiry objectively and give the American public \u2064the opportunity to learn about these critical developments. The media&#8217;s blackout on\u2063 this\u200b issue undermines the\u2064 principles of transparency, accountability,\u200c and trust that \u2063are essential for \u200da functioning democracy. It is time for the \u2063media to prioritize \u200dtruth and inform the public\u200c about the potential misconduct involving the \u2063President of the United States.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The House impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden received minimal coverage from the corporate news media.
