Bad News for Biden: Almost 70% of Americans Think He’s Lying About Hunter’s Business Dealings

OPINION | This article contains the author's opinion.

A newly published Rasmussen poll shows that many Americans don’t believe Joe Biden’s claim that he never spoke to his son about his shady overseas business dealings.

The poll found that nearly 70 percent of likely voters think that “likely the president was aware of at least some of Hunter Biden’s major foreign business dealings.”

45 percent of voters believe it is “very likely” that Biden was aware of his son’s business dealings.

Biden has claimed over and over that he has no knowledge about the corrupt business dealings involving his son Hunter. As the family scheme unravels, the evidence clearly implicates Joe’s brother James, his brother-in-law Jack, and Joe Biden himself.

Involvement in Hunter’s corrupt dealings isn’t merely a serious ethic violation given Joe’s position, but also a co-conspirator in federal tax fraud, money laundering, and violation of lobbying laws.

With the authentication of evidence found on Hunter’s “laptop from hell,” there are 11 instances where Joe Biden is allegedly involved in Hunter’s business dealings. Joe Biden is repeatedly referred to as “the big guy” in Hunter’s text message exchanges and emails.

In one text message, Hunter says his father takes half his multi-millionaire dollar salary.

But perhaps the most alarming piece of evidence is a voicemail from Joe to his son, Hunter. In his own words, Joe exposes his lie that he has no knowledge of his son’s business dealings.

Here’s a transcript of the audio: “Hey pal, it’s Dad. It’s 8:15 on Wednesday night. If you have a chance give me a call. Nothing urgent—I just wanted to talk with you,” Biden is heard saying in a voicemail from 2018. “I thought the article released online, it’s going to be printed tomorrow in the Times, was good. I think you’re clear.”

Biden was referring to an article published the next day about a private meeting between the chairman of a now-defunct Chinese energy company, CEFC, and Hunter Biden at a Miami hotel in May 2017.

White House Press Secretary Jean-Pierre was confronted over the voicemail. She is asked why Biden was speaking to his son about business dealings if the president has repeatedly said he has never spoken to his son about his business ventures.

“Well, first, I’ll say that what the president said stands,” Jean-Pierre said. “So, if he, if that’s what the president said, that, that is what stands.”

Jean-Pierre said she was “not going to talk about alleged materials from the laptop” from “the podium.”

She also even refused to admit that it’s Biden’s voice on the voicemail by saying, “I’m not going to talk about alleged materials on the laptop.”

More on this story via Fox News:

Biden administration officials and those in the president’s camp have cast materials that came from the laptop purportedly belonging to Hunter Biden as disinformation, but intelligence community officials have said, as far back as October 2020, that neither the laptop nor materials on it are part of any sort of disinformation campaign.

Hunter Biden has been under federal investigation for his “tax affairs” since 2018, according to a source familiar with the matter.

Fox News first reported in December 2020 that Biden was a subject/target of the grand jury investigation, a well-placed government source told Fox News. According to the source, a “target” means that there is a “high probability that person committed a crime,” while a “subject” is someone you “don’t know for sure” has committed a crime.”

The federal investigation into Hunter Biden was predicated, in part, by Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) regarding suspicious foreign transactions.

Another source familiar with the investigation told Fox News in December 2020 that the SARs were regarding funds from “China and other foreign nations.”
