The 2020 Senate report revealed that bank accounts linked to Hunter Biden received $5.1 million from Chinese business partner Henry Zhao within ten days of the newly surfaced text where Hunter demanded payment using his father “sat next to him” to strengthen the threat.
Henry Zhao, a key figure in forming a Chinese investment fund, had deep ties to Chinese intelligence, as Breitbart notes.
Henry Zhao worked with Chinese energy conglomerate CEFC Energy in 2017, also linked to Chinese military intelligence.
The newly released screen capture of the Hunter Biden text message to Chinese business partner Henry Zhao shows the president’s son pressuring Zhao for payment using his fathers influence, who was “sitting” in the room.
The text message reads:
“I am sitting here with my father, and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled. Tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand, and now means tonight. And, Z, if I get a call or text from anyone involved in this other than you, Zhang, or the chairman, I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not following my direction. I am sitting here waiting for the call with my father.”
Within ten days of the message, a CEFC subsidiary sent two payments totaling $5.1 million to accounts linked to Hunter, according to records cited in the Senate GOP investigation;
On Aug. 4, 2017, CEFC Infrastructure Investment (US) LLC, a subsidiary of Ye Jianming’s CEFC China Energy Company that listed Gongwen Dong as its director, sent Hunter Biden’s law firm, Owasco, a payment for $100,000. This transaction was identified as potential criminal financial activity. One of the investment entities of CEFC Infrastructure Investment is reportedly Shanghai Huaxin Group, a Chinese state-owned enterprise “engaged in petroleum products.” That company is owned by CEFC Shanghai International Group Ltd., which is controlled by Shanghai Guosheng Group, another state-owned enterprise. According to reporting, CEFC Shanghai was a CEFC subsidiary linked to the aforementioned corruption allegations involving the head of the China Development Bank. These examples further illustrate the deep financial connections between Biden, Owasco, and the Chinese government.
On Aug. 8, 2017, CEFC Infrastructure Investment wired $5 million to the bank account for Hudson West III. These funds may have originated from a loan issued from the account of a company called Northern International Capital Holdings, a Hong Kong-based investment company identified at one time as a “substantial shareholder” in CEFC International Limited along with Ye. It is unclear whether Hunter Biden was half-owner of Hudson West III at that time. However, starting on Aug. 8, the same day the $5 million was received, and continuing through Sept. 25, 2018, Hudson West III sent frequent payments to Owasco, Hunter Biden’s firm. These payments, which were described as consulting fees, reached $4,790,375.25 in just over a year.
FBI investigators wanted to obtain the location data to confirm Joe Biden was in the room with Hunter when he messaged Henry Zhao, according to IRS whistleblower testimony
However, there is no confidence the FBI obtained that data.
According to whistleblowers, Assistant U.S. Attorney Lesley Wolf prevented United States Attorney David Weiss from asking questions about an email on Hunter Biden’s laptop that detailed the deal with CEFC, mentioning, “Ten held by H for the big guy.”
The IRS whistleblower alleges Wolf stopped questioning “the big guy” to limit where the investigation could go, despite obvious evidence of Joe Biden’s involvement.
The ten percent “held by H for the big guy” refers to Joe Biden and his ten percent cut of a deal with a Chinese energy company, CEFC, as the New York Post reported in 2020.
CEFC controlled State Energy HK Limited, which is the company linked to the $1.3 million collective payments to the Biden family members.
House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) discovered that a Biden associate received a $3 million wire transfer from a Chinese energy company, CEFC, through the Biden family’s suspicious activity reports (SARs)
Four Biden family members, including Hunter, James, Hallie, and an unidentified “Biden,” received a $1.3 million cut from the $3 million wire transfer.
As The Daily Fetched reported earlier this month, Comer said the Biden family accepted as much as $30 million from foreign nationals as revelations about the president’s bribery scheme continue to unfold.
“We have more bank records coming in; we’re going to exceed $10 million this week. And I think we’ll get up to between $20 and 30 million,” Comer (R-Ky.) told Fox Business’s Maria Bartiromo.
