It just gets worse for the Senile Biden Crime Family
Hunter Biden laptop shows dozens of meetings with dad, business partners
Hunter Biden met with his father at least 30 times at the White House or the vice president’s residence, often just days after he returned home from overseas business jaunts.
The breakfasts, lunches and other gabfests between 2008 and 2016 raise questions about whether Hunter was relaying messages to his father on behalf of foreign clients, and cast new doubt on the president’s repeated denials that he had any role in his son’s shady overseas business dealings.
The meetings were found in a review of the personal calendar on Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop.
Eric Schwerin, the president of Hunter Biden’s investment company Rosemont Seneca Partners, is named as a calendar invite recipient on 21 of 30 listed meetings, with a green check frequently indicating his confirmed receipt of the invite for meetings with the vice president. Schwerin was a longtime Hunter Biden business confidante, and had access to the elder Biden’s personal financial information.
House GOP Conference Chair Elise Stefanik — who has promised to subpoena Hunter Biden should Republicans win back control of Congress in the 2022 midterm elections — said it was more evidence of corruption.
“Hardly a day goes by without another revelation about how intimately involved Joe Biden was with his son Hunter Biden’s corrupt foreign business dealings. The fact that Joe was in meetings with senior foreign leaders on behalf of Hunter and his business associates while Vice President further proves that Joe has been lying to the American people,” Stefanik told The Post.
HUDDLES WITH DAD
Hunter Biden often would huddle with his dad in the days, or even minutes, after high-profile meetings.
Hunter Biden met Daniel Kablan Duncan, the Prime Minister of Côte d’Ivoire, on April 15, 2016 in Washington D.C., his calendar shows. The 8:15 a.m. sitdown was quickly followed by a 9 a.m. confab with Vice President Biden at the Naval Observatory. The purpose of his meeting with Kablan is unclear.
Between Feb. 15-18, 2012, Hunter Biden was wined and dined by billionaire oligarchs in Moscow, including one now wanted for murder. Four days after his return, Hunter Biden met with Vice President Biden, again at the Naval Observatory.
On Nov 14. 2015, Hunter Biden met with Romanian ambassador to the United States George Maior, before heading off for meetings in that country. He returned Nov. 17, and had breakfast with his father at the Naval Observatory two days later. Just months after the trip, he teamed up with former FBI Director Louis Freeh to help Romanian businessman Gabriel Popoviciu avoid jail time.

Senile Biden said 'I have never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings.'
Arranging meeting with VP and a former president of Colombia, hoping for big deal, Hunter wrote, 'I am checking on my dad's schedule.'
And then they all met.
JOE BIDEN AND HUNTER'S COLOMBIA CONNECTION. The Hunter Biden story has always been a Joe Biden story. It has been clear all along that Hunter Biden, like some other relatives of high office-holders, spent years trying to cash in on his father's government position. And we've known for a while that Justice Department investigators are looking into whether Hunter Biden paid taxes on the money he got from various overseas deals and whether he fully complied with foreign agent registration requirements.
What we still don't know is what Hunter's father, former Vice President and now President Joe Biden, knew about his son's business dealings. It's hard to imagine a son traveling all around the world trading on his father's name and position and the father not knowing a single thing about it. And yet, that is what Joe Biden claims.
"I have never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings," Biden said in Iowa in 2019, during the Democratic presidential primary campaign. That's a pretty definitive statement. Since then, Biden or his spokespersons have stood behind that denial, so today, in July 2022, the president's position is that he has never spoken to his son about his son's overseas business dealings.
Now, there is a new story that will test Biden's denials once again. What follows is based on reporting by Jon Levine and Joshua Rhett Miller in the New York Post:
Among his many other foreign business interests, in 2011 and 2012, Hunter Biden pursued a possible lucrative deal in Colombia. He was actually trying to get in with a Brazilian construction company called OAS. An article by Reuters described OAS as "one of many Brazilian engineering and construction groups accused of paying bribes and rigging public contracts in Brazil's biggest-ever corruption scandal."
OAS was exploring a number of projects in Colombia, including "two wastewater treatment plants estimated to [cost] $380 million and $350 million ... a $1.8 billion hydroelectric power plant, and a $3 billion upgrade to the Bogota subway system," according to the New York Post.
How could Hunter and his business partners get a piece of it? By using Hunter's father's connections, of course. Joe Biden, then the vice president of the United States, had a longtime relationship with Andres Pastrana, who was president of Colombia from 1998 to 2002. During that period, Biden was a senior member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and had dealings with Pastrana. The relationship was a long one; on Nov. 7, 2020, the night Joe Biden was declared winner of the U.S. presidential election, Pastrana tweeted congratulations with a picture of himself, Biden, and another Foreign Relations Committee stalwart, Republican Sen. Jesse Helms. Pastrana called Biden a "great friend" of Colombia. And former President Pastrana remained an influential man in Colombia — the kind who could help a well-connected friend get a big contract.
According to documents found on the Hunter Biden laptop, Hunter and his partners began corresponding about the OAS/Colombia business in February 2011. They planned to pitch OAS — $20,000 a month, plus a 5% "success fee" — for Hunter's help in getting the Colombia projects.
"If it works, we'll all be rich," one of Hunter's partners emailed to him in August 2011, according to the report. In September, Hunter signed a contract with OAS for $25,000 a month. Hunter and his partners estimated their part of a "success fee" would be about $5 million.
In November 2011, Hunter went to Bogota, where he had dinner with Pastrana. "Emails contained on the hard drive suggest Mauricio Cardenas Santamaria, the country's minister for mines and energy, shared the meal," according to the report. "That same day, Hunter also met with Catalina Crane Arango, a counselor to Colombian president Juan Manual Santos, according to the calendar."
Soon, it would be time to bring Vice President Joe Biden into the deal personally. In February 2012, according to the report, Hunter wrote a note to Pastrana: "Dear Mr. President, I look forward to seeing you when you are in Washington. I was hoping we could meet for lunch or coffee depending upon your schedule ... I'd like to discuss an opportunity that I think you have already been initially briefed regarding OAS. I am checking on my dad's schedule."
"I am checking on my dad's schedule." Sure enough, Pastrana visited Washington and met with Joe Biden the next month, on March 2, 2012. Hunter Biden's calendar shows that Eric Schwerin, a business partner of Hunter's, was invited to "meet with Pres. Pastrana and Dad at NavObs," according to Hunter's calendar on the laptop. "NavObs" was a reference to the Naval Observatory, which is the vice president's residence. After the meeting at the Naval Observatory, Hunter scheduled a lunch with Pastrana at Washington's Cafe Milano, according to the report.
By May 2012, Pastrana was back in Washington, this time with his son Santiago. Father and son met with Hunter Biden. In an interview with the New York Post, Santiago Pastrana said, "The conversation was around the gratitude my father had for then VP Biden and all his support towards Colombia."
Did it all pay off? That's where things are a little murky. The New York Post reported, "The Colombian infrastructure projects were eventually built but it is unclear if OAS won any related contracts, or if Hunter Biden and his business partners pocketed 'success' bonuses."
But here's the bigger question: Did Joe Biden really not say a word to his son about Pastrana and the Colombia project? Did Hunter not say a word to his father about it? Did the vice president not know that his son and Pastrana were involved in a business initiative, whether or not it resulted in contracts and payouts at the end?
And what of Hunter's other business deals? The report said that Hunter "met with his father at least 30 times at the White House or the vice president's residence, often just days after he returned home from overseas business jaunts." the report continued: "Eric Schwerin ... is named as a calendar invite recipient on 21 of 30 listed meetings, with a green check frequently indicating his confirmed receipt of the invite for meetings with the vice president."
Remember what Joe Biden said: "I have never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings." At some point, at some time, the president will have to explain himself.

Did you per-chance wake up full of copy and paste today friend?
It would be awfully refreshing if these were you opinions vs. some right wing media scraps that have been uber-responsive to get out in order to dilute the stink of what's happening in the presidential aftermath of trump. Speaking of Trump and Hunter- Last I heard, hookers and buying them was not only a-ok, but absolutely acceptable when the name Trump is associated with it. But Hunter, who is not a presidential candidate- is your focus- Ok. Dude is as important as a cloudy day.
I will say- I cannot blame you for wanting to focus on anything other than forgotten Nuke codes / information, Biden's Yuge legislation wins, and a recovering economy despite covid, improved record employment, as well as a soft landing and now surging stock Market.
Every day without Trump in office is a win for America.
The NYPOST- Isn't the the land of Devine and other anti-dem propoganda?
Hell even I post stuff gathered from watching good old Fox for you to digest, so it's not so one sided. Keep up the good work Ctrl / C / Ctrl V guy. You seem to accept all tweets and ultraMaga talking points like a Mynah bird. They have you well trained sir. Hope that gets you some extra sunflower seeds.

Do you have anything to comment on the thread topic instead of breaking the rules and trying to hijack the thread? I know you want to pretend Hunter's laptop doesn't exist but here is just one of many news stories, this one showing how the Biden Crime Family sold the power of his political office to foreign entities for personal gain.
