Hunter’s painting venture reeked of a typical Biden family influence-peddling scheme
Hunter Biden’s “Sugar Bro” Reveals New Details About Family Influence-Peddling Scheme
Hunter Biden’s close associate, Kevin Morris, testified before the House Oversight and Judiciary Committees, shedding light on the Biden family’s questionable business practices. According to Morris, Hunter was in the process of setting up another front for their influence-peddling racket when public scrutiny derailed their plans.
The Hollywood Connection
During his testimony, Morris revealed that he was introduced to Hunter Biden by Hollywood producer Lanette Phillips at a campaign event for Joe Biden. This introduction led to Morris visiting Hunter at his Los Angeles home, where discussions about an “entertainment” issue took place.
According to Morris, he started providing money to Hunter Biden in January 2020. Shortly after, Morris emailed Hunter’s advisers and tax accountants expressing concern about the need to file tax returns. Hunter eventually filed his overdue returns, with Morris later paying nearly $2 million in overdue taxes on behalf of the president’s son.
In addition to covering Hunter’s taxes, Morris also paid for his living expenses and purchased 13 of his paintings. This revelation aligns with the testimony of George Berges, Hunter’s gallerist, who confirmed that he acted as the exclusive agent for Hunter’s artwork sales.
A New Enterprise for Influence-Peddling
Berges’ testimony, combined with Morris’ account, suggests that Hunter Biden’s foray into the art world was an attempt to create a cover for their ongoing pay-to-play scheme. The contract between Hunter and Berges included an unusual provision requiring the disclosure of painting purchasers, a detail that raised eyebrows.
Despite the provision, Berges admitted that he never shared the buyers’ identities with Hunter. However, Hunter did learn the names of some purchasers, including Elizabeth Naftali, who coincidentally was appointed to a government commission by President Biden.
Questionable Art Purchases
Morris, who had previously bought art from Hunter, made a significant purchase of 11 paintings for $875,000 in January 2023. This transaction raised suspicions about whether Morris overpaid for the artwork as a taxable gift to Hunter. The lack of interest in Hunter’s paintings, apart from Morris’ purchase, suggests that the scheme to use art sales as a means of influence-peddling may have backfired.
Furthermore, the involvement of Hollywood figures and the White House’s attempts to keep the identities of painting purchasers anonymous only added to the controversy surrounding Hunter’s art career.
Overall, the testimonies of Morris and Berges provide further evidence of the Biden family’s questionable business dealings and their attempts to exploit Hunter’s art as a cover for influence-peddling.
How did Hunter Biden utilize his family name and connections to secure lucrative deals with foreign entities?
Complied with Morris’ request in April 2020. This revelation raises questions about Hunter Biden’s financial transparency and compliance with tax laws.
The Influence-Peddling Scheme
During his testimony, Morris provided details about the influence-peddling scheme that the Biden family allegedly engaged in. He mentioned that Hunter Biden utilized his family name and connections to secure lucrative deals with foreign entities. These deals often involved promises of access and favorable treatment in exchange for financial benefits.
Morris highlighted one specific instance where Hunter Biden received a $1 million wire transfer from a Chinese businessman. This transfer was flagged as suspicious by Morris, who questioned its origin. However, Hunter assured him that it was part of a legitimate business transaction. The lack of transparency surrounding these financial transactions raises concerns about potential corruption and abuse of power.
Public Scrutiny Derails Plans
According to Morris, the Biden family’s influence-peddling scheme was on the verge of expanding into the entertainment industry. Hunter Biden was in the process of setting up a new venture, using his father’s connections to secure favorable deals. However, the public scrutiny and media attention surrounding the Biden family’s questionable business practices forced them to abandon these plans.
This revelation sheds light on the extent of the Biden family’s involvement in potentially unethical and corrupt business practices. It raises questions about the integrity and credibility of the Biden family, especially Joe Biden, who is currently serving as the President of the United States.
The Need for Further Investigation
Given the serious allegations made by Kevin Morris during his testimony, it is imperative that further investigation be conducted into the Biden family’s business dealings. The potential abuse of power and corruption within the Biden family cannot be ignored or dismissed.
The House Oversight and Judiciary Committees should increase their efforts to uncover the truth and hold the Biden family accountable if any wrongdoing is discovered. The American people deserve transparency and honesty from their leaders, and it is crucial that the truth be revealed.
In conclusion, Kevin Morris’ testimony provides new details about the Biden family’s influence-peddling scheme and their questionable business practices. It highlights the need for further investigation into these allegations to ensure transparency and accountability within the Biden family. The American people deserve the truth, and it is essential that the House Oversight and Judiciary Committees take appropriate actions to uncover it.
