Hunter Biden Business Partner: Corruption All the Way to the Top

‘The Biden family business was Joe Biden, period.’

Former US Navy officer Tony Bobulinski was a Biden family business associate. He worked with both Hunter Biden and Joe Biden’s brother, James. On Feb. 13, Bobulinski sat for a transcribed interview before the Committee on Oversight and Accountability and the Committee on the Judiciary for the House of Representatives. What he told lawmakers, if it is all true, should alarm every American.

In his opening statement, Bobulinski painted a broad picture of corruption, influence peddling, and the potentially lethal infiltration of the White House by “our most existential adversary,” the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

  Not much of a political animal, by his own admission, Bobulinski did share that he has “made a few campaign contributions over the years to Democrats such as Congressman Ro Khanna.” Mentioning Rep. Khanna (CA) – who sits on the Oversight Committee – by name was presumably a matter of full disclosure.

Joe Biden, currently the subject of an impeachment inquiry, has long insisted that he never discussed business with his son. Over time, this denial has evolved into never being involved in his son’s business affairs. The most recent tweak to the narrative came from Hunter Biden himself when, in December 2023, he defied a congressional subpoena and instead made a statement to the media in which he said his father “was not financially involved” in his business dealings. Bobulinski was emphatic that the senior Biden was very much involved – and that he has the evidence to prove it.

Though the witness did not directly claim in his statement that Joe Biden personally benefited from deals Hunter Biden made, he did say:

“Joe Biden’s immediate family members were enriched to the tune of tens of millions of dollars from some of our most dangerous adversaries, including the Chinese Communist Party and players from Russia, Ukraine, Romania, Kazakhstan and other foreign nations and entities.”

Joe and Hunter Biden – Guilt by Association?

As far as Bobulinski is concerned, that is enough to incriminate the current White House incumbent. To support that belief, he cited “recent discussions with experts” who confirmed to him that “under U.S. corruption laws, political office holders can be held as responsible as the immediate family members who are receiving money directly.”

Joe Biden met with Bobulinski himself “multiple times to discuss the broad contours of our business dealings,” according to the latter’s statement. Republican investigators already have acquired a body of evidence that Joe Biden attended several events at which he met foreign businessmen with whom Hunter Biden was dealing and spoke on the phone with some of Hunter’s overseas clients.

“The only reason any of these international business transactions took place – with tens of millions of dollars flowing directly to the Biden family – was because Joe Biden was in high office,” Bobulinski told the committees. “The Biden family business was Joe Biden, period.”

The most worrying part, however, is not Bobulinski saying, “For nearly four years, I have tried to tell the American people the truth about serious corruption at the very top of their government.” Corruption is as old as politics itself, after all. What should really disturb even the most objective observer is the dots connecting the Bidens to the CCP. The witness described it this way:

“The Chinese Communist Party through its surrogate, China Energy Company Limited, or ‘CEFC’ – a CCP-linked Chinese energy conglomerate – successfully sought to infiltrate and compromise Joe Biden and the Obama-Biden White House.”

He claimed this “process” began in late 2015 and continued through the end of the Obama administration and up until March 2018. At about the time, as Bobulinski noted, CEFC Chairman Ye Jianming was arrested on corruption charges in China and has not been seen or heard of since. According to testimony from another Biden family associate, Rob Walker, Joe Biden attended a meeting with Ye in 2015, which spawned the Biden-CEFC partnership.

In 2017, Hunter Biden was at Joe Biden’s Delaware house and “sitting here with my father” when he sent a text message to a CEFC executive, Raymond Zhao, and threatened dire consequences if the Chinese company didn’t pay up. Within 10 days, CEFC paid more than $5 million into accounts linked to Hunter and James Biden.

Despite White House denials, the evidence against Hunter Biden is piling up, and more and more Joe Biden himself appears to be implicated. A powerful politician on the take is one thing. That the man who was once the second-highest ranking politician in the country – and who is now the highest-ranking – might have been on the take from a company linked to the Chinese Communist Party is much, much more concerning.
