Bravo to Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.) for revealing how much of a family business Biden, Inc. is.

Bank records newly obtained by his House Oversight Committee reveal that Hunter Biden associate Rob Walker wired over $1.3 million in 2017, not only to usual suspects Hunter and the President’s little brother Jim, but also to daughter-in-law Hallie (the widow of son Beau; Hunter’s brief affair) – plus an unknown identified simply as “Biden.”

The family that gets paid together stays together it seems.

Most The Much of the change came from a $3 million wire transfer to Walker from a subsidiary of Chinese energy company CEFC. CEFC, which has since been dissolved, was one of China’s largest private companies and a prime target of Hunter Biden’s activities in 2017, when the First Son sought an ultra-high-paying seat on the board and stock shares for him and Jim and an unnamed “big guy” will commonly mistaken for Joe.

The new records shed further light on how inextricably intertwined Biden’s family life is with the clan’s larger business activities.

There is no possible legitimate reason Hallie Biden working as a school counselorshould have gotten part of the CEFC payout.

But that’s tradition for the Bidens.

Jim has been selling the family’s influence for decades – he got cheap credit during his brother’s time on the Senate Banking Committee; He reportedly told executives at a hedge fund he bought in 2006, “We have people all over the world who want to invest in Joe Biden.”

And after law school, Hunter apparently began “studying” with Jim as a younger partner, eventually taking over the “law firm”.

Then there’s that mysterious last name-only “Biden” listed as the recipient.

Could this be Joe himself?

Biden said he knows nothing about Hunter’s dealings but the new revelations prove this is BS.

He was also fingered by Hunter’s business partner-turned-whistleblower Tony Bobulinski as the “big guy” – and as such over a proposed 10% cut of the CEFC deal.

And then the $64,000 question: What exactly did the CEFC, which is adjacent to the People’s Liberation Army, buy?

The smart bet is influence.

While those funds would not flow until after Joe’s tenure ended, Hunter and Jim prepared the deal while he was still in office.

The latest revelations also blast Rep. Jamie Raskin’s pathetic dissent – that the House GOP attempted to dig up old receipts for pizza and Starbucks – and demonstrate both the importance of this investigation in restoring confidence in the government and, how instrumental Comer was in exposing the problem Biden mafia.

And he’s just getting started.
