Pam Bondi, the former Florida attorney general, made several assertions Tuesday about shady business dealings by Hunter Biden, the son of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden.
Some of Bondi's remarks to the Republican National Convention were accurate, others were misleading.
Hunter Biden was on the board from 2014 to 2019 of Burisma Holdings, Ukraine's largest gas company for which he was paid as much$50,000 per month, according to the New York Times. Bondi's statement that Hunter Biden lacked experience in the energy sector is accurate., according to a former U.S. diplomatFor example, Cofer Black, who served as George W. Bush's CIA counterterrorism chief, joined Burisma's board in 2017.
"Recently reported information revealed that a few months after Hunter Biden joined that corrupt company’s board, the Obama-Biden State Department began doing business with them, even when it remained under investigation for corruption," Bondi said."And it gets worse: that very same company was being investigated by a Ukrainian prosecutor.
Left unsaid by Bondi is President Trump's impeachment by the House of Representatives for pressuring Ukraine's president to investigate Joe Biden by withholding military aid and a White House visit. The Senate acquitted Trump.
