Former Vice President Joe Biden’s official public schedule shows several gaps during which he could have met with a Burisma adviser in 2015, despite claims by the Biden campaign that the meeting could not have happened because it was not on Biden’s “official schedules.”
On Wednesday morning, the New York Post reported that Biden had met with an official from Burisma, the corrupt Ukrainian energy company on whose board Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, served in a highly-paid position.
The Post cited an email it obtained from an abandoned hard drive that appeared connected to Hunter Biden.
The former vice president had previously denied ever speaking to his son about his overseas business interests. The campaign pushed back against the Post report, saying there was no such meeting on Biden’s “official schedules.”
But Breitbart News contribute Peter Schweizer told conservative radio host Mark Levin on Wednesday evening that Biden’s schedule had enough gaps in it that day to hold other meetings.
The date of the meeting would appear to be April 16 or 17. The Post reported that the email was sent on April 17, 2015:
The never-before-revealed meeting is mentioned in a message of appreciation that Vadym Pozharskyi, an adviser to the board of Burisma, allegedly sent Hunter Biden on April 17, 2015, about a year after Hunter joined the Burisma board at a reported salary of up to $50,000 a month.
“Dear Hunter, thank you for inviting me to DC and giving an opportunity to meet your father and spent [sic] some time together. It’s realty [sic] an honor and pleasure,” the email reads.
The time of the email was 6:00 a.m. PDT — 9:00 a.m. EDT. It refers tossing Hunter Biden “yesterday,” so the meeting likely occurred on the 16th, though it could have happened early the 17th, or earlier in the week.
Biden’s schedules for that week leave ample room for other meetings, in between speeches and official events.
As Breitbart News reported earlier Wednesday, Biden has certainly taken other meetings that were not on his official schedule.
Very interesting texts released by Rudy from Hunter to his sister. Joe pimping out his kids for 50% of their salary?
I love you all but I don’t receive any respect and that’s fine I guess. Works for you apparently. I hope you all can do what I did, and pay for everything for this entire family for 30 years. It’s really hard but don’t worry, unlike Pop, I won’t make you give me half your salary.”
Not exactly anything that would be on a schedule.
@kitt: Dear old Dad has to wet his beak, huh? Those who voted for Biden early can’t get their votes back, but you can’t say they weren’t warned what a corrupt, lying scumbag Joe is.
