The latest release mostly concerns Hunter Biden’s activities in China, where Joe Biden was the Obama administration “point man.” The last email concerned Hunter’s activities in Ukraine, where—surprise!—Biden was also the Obama administration point man. It’s funny how Hunter Biden keeps getting contracts in places where his father was assigned to lead American foreign policy.
In one email uncovered by the Post, the younger Biden refers to a lucrative deal with a Chinese energy company as “interesting for me and my family.” Hunter was divorced at the time. It makes one wonder what “family” he’s talking about.
Another email indicates that Hunter Biden will hold equity in the Chinese firm for “the big guy.” Who could the “big guy” be? Someone who is so important he can’t be named. And someone who could trust Hunter. Those two requirements surely narrow the possibilities.
The Post reports:
Hunter Biden pursued lucrative deals involving China’s largest private energy company — including one that he said would be “interesting for me and my family,” emails obtained by The Post show.
One email sent to Biden on May 13, 2017, with the subject line “Expectations,” included details of “remuneration packages” for six people involved in an unspecified business venture.
Biden was identified as “Chair / Vice Chair depending on agreement with CEFC,” an apparent reference to the former Shanghai-based conglomerate CEFC China Energy Co.
His pay was pegged at “850” and the email also noted that “Hunter has some office expectations he will elaborate.”
In addition, the email outlined a “provisional agreement” under which 80 percent of the “equity,” or shares in the new company, would be split equally among four people whose initials correspond to the sender and three recipients, with “H” apparently referring to Biden.
The deal also listed “10 Jim” and “10 held by H for the big guy?”
Neither Jim nor the “big guy” was identified further.
The email’s author, James Gilliar of the international consulting firm J2cR, also noted, “I am happy to raise any detail with Zang if there is [sic] shortfalls ?”
“Zang” is an apparent reference to Zang Jian Jun, the former executive director of CEFC China.
The email is contained in a trove of data that the owner of a computer repair shop in Delaware said was recovered from a MacBook Pro laptop that was dropped off in April 2019 and never retrieved.
