In a lengthy statement released on X House Judiciary Committee Jim Jordan said the Biden family corruption is a tale as old as time. A government official takes action. That action
benefits his family. And then, when questions are asked, thereโs a cover-up. For President Joe Biden, itโs a story about money, influence, and protecting the Biden family brand.

Between 2014 and April 25, 2019, the day Joe Biden announced his candidacy for President, Biden family members received approximately $15 million from foreign entities.ย It was done through a complex series of transactions involving over 20 different companies. What did the Bidens do? What services did Hunter Biden and his associates provide? What was worth the receipt of $15 million?
ย
Devon Archer, Hunter Bidenโs business partner, gave us the answer. In his transcribed interview before Congress, he said they were selling โthe Brand.โ And โthe Brandโ was Joe Biden.ย As another one of Hunter Bidenโs business partners, Jason Galanis, put it, the Bidens provided the โrelationship capitalโโthe โpolitical accessโ the brand provided โin the United States and around the world.โย
ย
The deal with the Chinese energy company, CEFC, is one example of how the Bidensโ influence peddling operation worked. For months, Hunter Biden and his associates had been working to close a deal with CEFC. However, it wasnโt until โthe Brandโ himself stopped by a lunch at the Four Seasons in Washington, D.C. in mid-February 2017 that the agreement was finalized.ย At the lunch were Hunter Biden, his business partners, and eight Chinese executives with CEFC. Joe Bidenโthe โbig guyโโโdrop[ped] byโ and gave remarks to the group.ย Just a few weeks later, Hunter Biden and his partners received $3 million from CEFC.
ย
Four months after the $3 million was wired to Hunter Biden, he sent a WhatsApp message to a CEFC official: โI am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not be fulfilled. 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.โ Later he reiterated, โI am sitting here waiting for the call with my father.โย Nine days later, another $5 million was wired to an entity jointly controlled by Hunter Biden.ย Later that same day, $400,000 was moved from the joint entityโs account to a personal account of Hunter Biden. A few weeks later, Joe Biden received a $40,000 check.

Joe Biden had forty thousand reasons to be aware of Hunter Bidenโs foreign business dealings. But as Mr. Biden began to run for President in 2020, these foreign entanglements became a political liability. And so, Joe Biden and his campaign attempted to mislead the American people.
ย
On October 22, 2020, Joe Biden declared that Hunter Biden โhas not made money in terms of this thing about . . . China.โย But the facts of the CEFC deal plainly contradict his statement. Joe Biden also stated that he โnever discussed a single thing with [his] son about anything having to do with Ukraine.โย Devon Archerโs testimony to Congress contradicts this statement.ย But the lie with the greatest impact was one Joe Biden made about his sonโs laptop.
ย
On October 14, 2020, the New York Post published the story on the contents of Hunter Bidenโs laptop, including evidence of Biden family influence peddling.ย Testimony given to Congress by current and former FBI officials confirm that the FBI took possession of the laptop in December of 2019, and that they had authenticated it by the date the New York Post ran its story. Yet the FBI said nothing when the story was censored by Big Tech. Even as Twitter locked the New York Post out of its account, the FBI remained silent. The silence continued when 51 former Intelligence Community officials published a statement that the Hunter Biden laptop story โhas all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.โย A subsequent investigation later showed, the catalyst for this letter was the Biden campaign itself.
ย
Three days after the Postโs story ran, Antony Blinken, then a Biden campaign official and now President Bidenโs Secretary of State, emailed former Acting Director of National Intelligence Michael Morell about the story.ย Morell, who longed to be the CIA Director in a Biden Administration, told Congress it was Blinkenโs email that prompted him to organize the letter and gather the signatures.ย On October 19, 2020, the letter went public. Three days later, Joe Biden cited it in the final presidential debate, claimingโfalsely, we now knowโthat โ50 former national intelligence folksโ said the laptop story was โa Russian planโย Just hours after the debate, the Biden campaign chair, Steve Richetti called Morell to thank him for the statement. The move worked exactly as planned. The only problemโit was a lie. The FBI knew it was a lie! Joe Biden knew it was a lie. And his campaign knew it was a lie.
ย
Polling, not to mention common sense, strongly suggest that if Americans had been given the truth about the laptop and the Biden family influence peddling operation, the outcome of the 2020 presidential election would have been different.
ย
Itโs really a story as old as time. The question isโwill Americans let the Bidens get away with it?

"If Americans had been given the truth about the laptop and the Biden family influence peddling operation, the outcome of the 2020 presidential election would have been different." With respect to Mr Jordan, this is a false statement. It's quite clear to me that many Americans saw through what was happening and gave President Trump the most votes ever for a sitting President. That statement is just a tacit way of saying Biden won the election legitimately, when he did not. In fact, there's no evidence that he won legitimately. All the laptop story would have done is have these characters conjure up mail in ballots for another week or two, not just up to the Saturday after the election.โฆ
After years of abject failure, I think it would be fool's gold to expect anything from the GOP. I'll believe it when I see it. Conservatives need a new political party. M y suggestion is the Founders Party of America.
