Hunter Biden’s business partners had considerable influence in the office of then-vice president Joe Biden, going so far as arranging invitations to state functions, a new trove of emails released by the National Archives on Wednesday shows.
The emails, which were released to America First Legal as part of a lawsuit, raise questions about President Joe Biden’s repeated denials that he had no knowledge of his son’s overseas business dealings. In at least one instance, Hunter Biden’s former business partner Eric Schwerin initiated contact with the vice president’s top aides to get an associate into a 2010 State Department lunch with senior Chinese Communist Party officials. Other emails suggest Hunter Biden received confidential information from the vice president’s office about a 2010 state trip to Africa.
The emails come as Republican lawmakers scrutinize a host of the Biden family’s foreign business dealings. Hunter Biden lobbied the State Department on behalf of a corrupt Romanian official who paid the Biden family $1 million while his father was vice president, the Washington Free Beacon reported. House Oversight Committee chairman James Comer (R., Ky.) earlier this month subpoenaed FBI director Christopher Wray for documents that allegedly detail "a bribery scheme involving a foreign national and Joe Biden when he served as vice president."
