It appears that Hunter Biden’s legal team admitted the dark truth before Judge Maryellen Noreika in federal court.
President Joe Biden once claimed that his son, Hunter, never received money from a Chinese entity. Hunter Biden’s lawyer, Chris Clark, exposed this lie and admitted the president’s son received $664,000 from CEFC China Energy Co. in 2017.
Clark told Judge Noreika that Hunter made over one million dollars in foreign business transactions, including $664,000 from CEFC.
“During calendar year 2017, Biden earned substantial income, including: just under $1 million from a company he formed with the CEO of a Chinese business conglomerate [BHR Partners]; $666,666 from his domestic business interests; approximately $664,000 from a Chinese infrastructure investment company[CEFC],” Clark told the judge.
In contrast, President Biden has repeatedly lie to Americans about his family’s financial activity in shady overseas deals. A reporter asked Biden, “Hunter Biden’s business associate sent over a million dollars to three of your family members. Any reaction to that?”
“That’s not true,” the president shot back.

During the 2020 presidential election cycle, Biden told Americans that neither he nor his son received money from a Chinese entity. Biden accused former President Donald Trump of making money from China.
“My son has not made money in terms of this thing about, what are you talking about, China,” Biden said. “The only guy who made money from China is this guy [Donald Trump]. He’s the only one. Nobody else has made money from China.”
The evidence proves the Biden family has been lying all along, and Hunter is facing the consequences in court. The House Oversight Committee James Comer (R-KY) found that the Biden family received over $10 million from business schemes in Romania and China in return for what appears to be influence peddling.
Hunter Biden’s company, BHR Partners, received money from a Chinese company, CEFC China Energy. According to a report by the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, CEFC paid $4.8 million to BHR Partners over a 14-month period in 2016 and 2017. The payments were made through a joint venture between CEFC and Hunter Biden’s uncle, James Biden.

The payments from CEFC to BHR Partners have been the subject of much scrutiny, as some have suggested that they could have created a conflict of interest for Hunter Biden’s father, Joe Biden, who was then vice president of the United States.
Just days after Joe and Hunter Biden threatened a Chinese businessman to “fulfill his commitment” over text message, the Biden family received $5 million from the Chinese firm. Fox News confirmed that “a bank account linked to President Biden’s son Hunter Biden received more than $5 million in August 2017, shortly after his threatening messages.”
On July 30, 2017, Hunter used the messaging system “WhatsApp,” which is owned by Facebook’s parent company Meta, to send a threatening text to Hery Zhao, CEO of Harvest Fund Management. In the bombshell text, Hunter said he was “sitting here” with his father “and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled.”
The damning evidence clearly indicates President Biden’s involvement in his son’s shady overseas influence-peddling bribery schemes. IRS Criminal Supervisory Special Agent Gary Shapley Jr., who oversaw the agency’s investigation into Hunter Biden, released this new information to the American people.
“Tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand, and now means tonight,” Hunter Biden wrote in the text. “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.”
