Hunter Biden’s business associates spoke candidly in emails about Hunter Biden’s role in the business, particularly as it related to foreign ventures, apparently viewing the Biden name as a form of “currency,” and bragging that they had a “direct…pipeline” to the Obama-Biden Administration.
In another email, Hunter Biden’s associates touted Hunter’s access to the White House and contrasted his willingness to “take on risk” with that of Chris Heinz—then-Secretary of State John Kerry’s stepson and a close friend of Biden and Archer—who was uncomfortable with some of their potential partnerships.
In October 2013, Hunter Biden’s associates (including Devon Archer) discussed which one of their corporate vehicles would be appropriate for a new deal they were working on. Archer noted their need to use a “Rosemont Seneca SPV” (also known as a special purpose vehicle) because Rosemont Capital was too close to the Heinz family and because using an SPV could “bring Hunter into the mix.” Archer explained his desire “to leverage Hunter more” in a way that didn’t involve Heinz, who Archer called “much more risk averse.”

Another benefit of the Rosemont Seneca SPV was, per an October 5 email from Hunter Biden and Devon Archer’s business associate Bevan Cooney to Archer, it “would be good to put some honey in Hunter’s pocket.” That same day Archer responded: “Agreed. I also have more autonomy with that company as I own it with Hunter and he’s willing to take on risk… Hunter will work if we need him too [sic] as well.”
Five days later, Biden’s business associate Jason Galanis confirmed to Archer that he had changed the corporate references in the proposal to include a Hunter Biden-controlled firm. Archer replied, clearly pleased. “Perfect. Let’s just keep to that. We get the Biden lift and stay out of Heinz panties.” Archer had noted he would use Rosemont Seneca Partners instead of Rosemont Capital, in which Heinz held a stake. Hunter Biden and Devon Archer’s Rosemont Seneca Partners would play a pivotal role in their future deals.
For example, in December 2013, Rosemont Seneca Partners finalized a deal with the Chinese government-backed investment vehicle, Bohai Harvest, to form Bohai Harvest RST, a new firm in which Hunter Biden would maintain a 10% equity stake and whose funds would grow to at least $1.5 billion.
joe biden sold the office of Vice President. joe biden should be in jail.
Even ketchup boy knew it was dirty and too dirty to get involved in.
Influence peddling and graft. Once again we see the entire left (DNC and the liberal media) working in concert to deny that facts are facts. As usual, more and more evidence comes forth showing them to be liars. Yet, they show no concern with lying and getting caught because, first, they have no morals or integrity and, second, there is NEVER a price to pay for lying.

@July 4th American: Basement shields… UP!
Want to talk about Donald’s Chinese bank accounts? I’m guessing not.
October 20, 2020 – Trump Records Shed New Light on Chinese Business Pursuits
That was $15.1 million withdrawal paid to Donald personally, quickly getting money out of his company’s account in China and into his own pocket.
@Greg:
Well, we know you don’t want to talk about Biden’s Chinese dealings so you rely on the untrustworthy NYSlimes. I think you enjoy being lied to. You’re sick in the head.
The treasury had no problem handing confidential financial records on Hunter Biden over to congressional republicans this past February, while declining to provide a damn thing on Donald Trump even though doing so is required by law.
Your cult leader is a crook, and your party has been thoroughly corrupted by him. If you can’t figure that out, you’re the one with the mental problem.
@Greg: A partially recycled story with a lemon twist, we know of Ivankas trademark grants, that Trump hats were made in China and other things neck ties ect. I like the part could not be verified and dates before he became President. Sorry Bother the NYT is for the gullible such as yourself.
That garbage salad isnt anything like the selling access and influence while in office and the full documentation of the 47 year quid pro quo crime spree of the Bidens.
@Greg:
BULLSH*T. Biden is a crook and your corrupt and cowardly party impeached Trump to cover it up.
Just so you know, Rudy’s “MOUNTAIN OF EVIDENCE” has arrived.
Biden is finished.
@Greg:
That’s just business, and smart business at that.
Biden getting rich from his office?
That’s a crime.
Biden is finished. See you in 2024.
It’s truly a “lid” on his campaign…
@Greg: First, prove it. Second, look at how Trump treats China if he has bank accounts and interests there; he HAMMERS them. He rakes them over the coals. Look how Biden treats China; “hey, they aren’t bad people”. He says they aren’t a threat. He doesn’t hold them accountable for them spreading the CCP virus. See the stark contrast?
Biden is in the pocket of the CCP and he openly acts like it. IF Trump has financial interests in China, he ignores that and does what is best for the country, even if it costs him personally. Biden only does things that BENEFITS HIM personally.
The NYT is less credible than the National Enquirer.
That’s because Hunter is credibly accused of crimes, influence peddling, bribery and illegal lobbying for a foreign agent. You merely want Trump’s returns to LOOK for a crime and that’s not how it works.
@Greg:
@Deplorable Me: greggie the rock sees no difference between ordinary business deal with foreign countries by regular citizens and laundering money by senior US government officers who use their position in a play for pay situation..
@Randy:
Why wasn’t the NYSlimes article banned by Twitter and Facebook using the same reason those outlets blocked the NYPost with claims the Hunter info was “ill gotten”. How did the Slimes get Trump’s tax returns? Ummmm???
@retire05: Does a withdrawal from a bank account have to be claimed on tax forms? Does that count with Biden Swiss or Caymen accounts or funds held by H for the Big guy?
