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

Bank records recently obtained by the House Oversight Committee show that Hunter Biden associate Rob Walker transferred $1.3 million in 2017, not only to the usual suspects Hunter and younger presidential brother Jim, but also to daughter-in-law Hallie (son Beau’s widow; Hunter’s brief fling) – plus an unknown labeled simply as “Biden.”

The family that pays together seems to stay together.

MOST that A large part of the change came from a $3 million transfer from a subsidiary of Chinese energy group CEFC to Walker. CEFC, now defunct, was one of China’s largest private companies and a key target of Hunter Biden’s operations in 2017, with the First Son seeking a highly paid board seat and equity stake in and Jim and an unidentified “big guy” widely thought to be Joe.

The new data sheds further light on how inextricably intertwined Biden’s family life is with the clan’s larger business operations.

There is no possible Legal reason Hallie Biden, who works as a school counselorshould have received part of the CEFC payment.

But this is tradition for the Bidens.

Jim has been selling the family’s influence for decades—getting loans with sweet deals during his brother’s days on the Senate Banking Committee; allegedly telling executives of a hedge fund he bought in 2006 that “We have people all over the world who want to invest in Joe Biden.”

And after law school, Hunter apparently began “studying” under Jim as a junior partner to eventually take over “the firm.”

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

Could this be Joe himself?

Biden said he knows nothing about Hunter’s business dealings, but new revelations prove that’s BS.

Plus, he’s been branded the “big guy” by Hunter’s business partner-turned-whistleblower Tony Bobulinski – and as such, due a proposed 10% cut of the CEFC deal.

And then the $64,000 question: What exactly was the People’s Liberation Army buying next to the CEFC?

The smart bet is “impact”.

While these funds did not come until after Joe’s term ended, Hunter and Jim were putting the deal together while he was still in office.

The latest revelations also blow up Rep. Jamie Raskin’s pathetic deflection — that the House GOP was trying to dig up old pizza and Starbucks bills — and show how vital this investigation is to restoring trust in government and how instrumental it is. was Comer in exposing Biden’s Mafia.

And he’s just getting started.
