{{quotebox|The records acquired by the Committees show that Hunter Biden and his family were involved in a vast financial network that connected them to foreign nationals and foreign governments across the globe. Hunter Biden and Archer, in particular, formed significant and consistent financial relationships with the corrupt oligarch Mykola Zlochevsky during their time working for Burisma and their firms made millions of dollars from that association while Joe Biden was vice president and the public face of the Obama administration’s Ukraine policy. Rosemont Seneca Thornton, an investment firm co-founded by Hunter Biden, received $3.5 million in a wire transfer from Elena Baturina, who allegedly received illegal construction contracts from her husband, the former mayor of Moscow. Moreover, Archer’s apparent receipt of money for a car from Kenges Rakishev of [[Kazakhstan]] while Vice President Biden was in Kyiv is especially concerning in light of the timing. And finally, Biden and Archer’s work with Chinese nationals connected to the Communist regime illustrate the deep financial connections that accelerated while his father was vice president and continued after he left office.

For first time in [[American history]] [[social media]] companies took [[direct action]] against a major U.S. publisher,<ref>https://www.theepochtimes.com/twitter-and-facebooks-assault-on-freedom-of-the-press_3540670.html</ref> ''[[The New York Post]]'' when it published a story on former VP Biden's [[collusion]] with Ukrainianian gas giant [[Burisma]] executives and Ukrainian [[oligarch]]s.<ref>*https://nypost.com/2020/10/14/email-reveals-how-hunter-biden-introduced-ukrainian-biz-man-to-dad/<br>*https://youtu.be/r4Kcc7a114I<br>*https://youtu.be/89ByR-vrnc4</ref> ''The Post'' is among the top five newspapers by circulation in the United States.   

Biden and Archer found willing partners in Chinese nationals connected to the Communist regime.  Their work in China began at least in 2009, with the creation of Rosemont Seneca Partners with Heinz, Secretary of State John Kerry’s stepson. Then, several years later, Biden and Archer formed BHR with Bohai Capital and received their business license approval in China shortly after Biden visited China with his father, Vice President Biden.

Former [[Vice President Biden]] has repeatedly [[lied]] about having any knowledge of his son Huner's dealings with Burisma. [[Hunter Biden]] earned in excess of $3 million while serving on Burisma's board of directors during the [[Obama administration]].  The former vice president bragged to the [[Council on Foreign Relations]] that he threatened the President of Ukraine with withholding $1.8 Billion in foreign aid and loan guarantees, which the former vice president was in charge of, unless a [[prosecutor]] investigating Burisma [[kickback]]s to the Biden family was fired.

Hunter Biden’s connections and financial associations appear to have accelerated significantly after he associated himself with Ye Jianming, who had deep connections with the Communist regime and [[PLA]].  However, that didn’t seem to have any impact on Hunter Biden, who made millions from the relationship. Indeed, Hunter Biden and his family, to include James and Sara Biden, associated with other Chinese nationals such as Gongwen Dong.  In one case, the three of them went on a $100,000 global spending spree after Gongwen Dong and Hunter Biden opened a joint account.  In addition, Hunter Biden received millions of dollars over a period of years from Gongwen Dong’s companies.  According to records acquired by the Committees, many of these transactions involved potential criminal financial activity.<ref>[https://www.hsgac.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/HSGAC_Finance_Report_FINAL.pdf Hunter Biden, Burisma, and Corruption: The Impact on U.S.Government Policy and Related Concerns], U.S. Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, September 23, 2020, p. 84.</ref>}}

The former vice president's son, Hunter, never visited Ukraine, did not speak Ukrainian, had no experience in the oil and gas industry, received over $50,000 a month in wire transfers from Burisma in which he paid half to his father,<ref>https://www.bostonherald.com/2020/10/15/howie-carr-hunter-biden-scandal-too-hot-for-alt-left-media/</ref> was dishonorably discharged from the [[Navy]] for [[cocaine]] [[addiction]], returned a rental car with crack and paraphernalia in it,<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2019/05/17/exclusive-2016-arizona-police-report-cocaine-pipe-found-in-car-rented-by-joe-bidens-son-hunter-biden-authorities-declined-to-prosecute/</ref> had a baby out of wedlock whom he refused to pay child support for until ordered by a court while he was having an affair with his [[widow]]ed sister-in-law.<ref>https://nypost.com/article/inside-the-life-of-hunter-biden-joe-bidens-scandal-plagued-son/</ref> Biden was paid $3.5 million from the wife of the [[Moscow]] mayor to launder $200 million in violation of the [[Magnitsky Act]].<ref>https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/10/maybe-just-like-gettin-ass-whooped-black-trump-supporter-posts-epic-takedown-black-biden-supporters/</ref>  Tens of thousands of dollars in payments to an [[Eastern Europe]]an prostitution and human tafficing ring were also discovered.<ref>https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/megan-fox/2020/09/23/senate-report-links-hunter-biden-to-human-trafficking-ring-n959766</ref>

No record of Hunter Biden filing as a lobbyist or agent of a foreign power under the FARA Act exists.<ref>https://uncoverdc.com/2020/09/26/when-did-hunter-biden-and-associates-file-as-foreign-agents-under-the-fara-act/</ref>

 

On April 18, 2014 Hunter was appointed to the board of directors of Burisma. According to ''The Hill'' Biden's firm, Rosemont Seneca Partners, was receiving regular payments—“usually more than $166,000 a month”—from Burisma. The payments ran from the spring of 2014 through the fall of 2015 and reportedly totaled more than $3 million.  In a text message from Hunter Biden to his sister Naomi, Hunter said that "Pop" takes 50% of his salary.<ref>https://www.redstate.com/scotthounsell/2020/10/15/october-surprise-giuliani-reveals-texts-from-hunter-saying-biden-got-half-of-his-contracts/</ref>  Biden was hired by [[Mykola Zlochevsky]], who previously served as Ukraine's ecology minister.  Burisma came under investigation in 2015. The prosecutor traced payments made to Hunter Biden. Vice President Biden threatened to withhold $1 billion in U.S. loan guarantees and aid unless the prosecutor investigating Hunter Biden was fired.<ref>https://www.nytimes.com/2015/12/09/world/europe/corruption-ukraine-joe-biden-son-hunter-biden-ties.html</ref> Joe Biden bragged about having caused the firing of the [[Ukraine]] prosecutor to a [[Council on Foreign Relations]] conference:

{{quotebox-float|"'You’re not getting the billion'. I’m going to be leaving here in, I think it was about six hours. I looked at them and said: ‘I’m leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not getting the money'...Well, [SOB], he got fired. And they put in place someone who was solid at the time."<ref name="thehill.com">https://thehill.com/opinion/white-house/436816-joe-bidens-2020-ukrainian-nightmare-a-closed-probe-is-revived</ref><ref>https://www.cfr.org/event/foreign-affairs-issue-launch-former-vice-president-joe-biden</ref>}}
