    Biden got $200K from brother's 'influence peddling' effort, Rep. Comer says

    WASHINGTON (TND) — The House Committee on Oversight and Accountability on Friday released bank records they say prove President Joe Biden benefitted from influence peddling.

    The document in question is a $200,000 check from brother James Biden to Joe Biden dated March 1, 2018. It was sent to President Biden as a form of “loan repayment,” the check reads.

    James, the committee claims, received $600,000 in loans from failing hospital operator Americore in 2018 “based upon representations that his last name, ‘Biden,’ could ‘open doors’ and that he could obtain a large investment from the Middle East based on his political connections.” He received a $200,000 wire from the company the same day he wrote the check addressed to Joe.

    Let’s balance this against all the other bullshiat Comer claimed which turned out to be untrue.

    “Even if this was a personal loan repayment, it’s still troubling that Joe Biden’s ability to be paid back by his brother depended on the success of his family’s shady financial dealings,” Comer said.

    Oh fuck what a yawnfest. Wake us up when Joe grabs two billion. Influence peddling is slimey but not illegal, unless you do it like Kushner when It probably is.

    200k is a Porche 911 or a good spec Range Rover.

    I guess this ends at bombshell ten like Benghazi?

    Another GOP ‘Bombshell’ About Joe Biden Turns Out To Be A Dud

    WASHINGTON — Republicans announced Friday that they had uncovered a “direct payment” to President — exactly the kind of evidence they’ve sought linking Biden to his family’s foreign business deals.

    But the March 2018 payment came from Joe Biden’s brother James, not a Ukrainian oligarch or Chinese tycoon, and the check was marked as a “loan repayment.”

    Still, House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.), who obtained the records via subpoena, said the $200,000 check looks suspicious for the president.

    Comer has been leading Republicans’ investigation and impeachment inquiry into President Biden, which so far hasn’t implicated Biden himself and in recent weeks has been overshadowed by infighting among Republicans that has paralyzed the House of Representatives.

    Democrats on the Oversight Committee say the personal bank records recently provided to the committee do show that Biden loaned his brother the money.

    “These records actually show that President Biden was the one who stepped in to help family members when they needed support, including by providing short term loans to his brother,” Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), the committee’s top Democrat, said in a statement.

    Raskin added that the 1,400 pages of records Republicans got from their subpoenas, which asked banks for several years of records relating to the president’s brother and son, show no wrongdoing, but do reveal “payments for things like groceries, vet visits, and plumbing repairs.”
