President Joe Biden denied members of his family received more than $1 million from a Hunter Biden business associate — even though the president's son appeared to confirm it.
Rep. James Comer revealed the new financial details last week after he obtained them through a subpoena of Hunter Biden associate Rob Walker's bank records. The House Oversight and Accountability Committee chairman revealed that “from 2015 through 2017, Biden family members and their companies received over $1.3 million in payments” from accounts tied to Walker.
"Hunter Biden, a private citizen with every right to pursue his own business endeavors, joined several business partners in seeking a joint venture with a privately owned, legitimate energy company in China,” a Hunter spokesman said. “As part of that joint venture, Hunter received his portion of good faith seed funds, which he shared with his uncle James Biden and Hallie Biden, with whom he was involved with at the time and sharing expenses.
Comer released a memo stating that two months after Joe Biden left the vice presidency, the Chinese company State Energy HK wired $3 million to Robinson Walker, an account belonging to Walker.
