WASHINGTON, D.C. - A recent release of evidence by the Ways and Means Committee has shed light on the fact that President Joe Biden was complicit in his son Hunter Biden's global influence-peddling scheme. This revelation raises concerns about the abuse of office and the potential for the President's son to sell access to the White House.

Contrary to previous claims by President Biden and his allies, the evidence shows that Joe Biden was not only aware of his son's business dealings but actively participated in them. The Ways and Means Committee has uncovered mountains of evidence that debunk the President's denials and leave little doubt of his complicity.

One key piece of evidence is the communication between Joe Biden and his son, as well as his son's business associates. The President used multiple email aliases and private email addresses to communicate with Hunter Biden's main financial architect and business partner. This directly contradicts previous public statements made by the President, in which he denied any knowledge of his son's business dealings. The evidence also highlights the access that Hunter Biden and his associates had to Joe Biden's public office while working for foreign businesses.

Among the recently released evidence are 327 emails that show Joe Biden's correspondence with a key Hunter Biden business associate. Fifty-four of these emails were exclusively between Joe Biden and Eric Schwerin, who was responsible for structuring the family's various shell companies. Additionally, there were 38 emails from the White House to a Joe Biden alias, with a copy to Hunter Biden.

Furthermore, the evidence reveals that Joe Biden actively participated in his son's business dealings. In 2014, the President hosted Hunter Biden and two business associates at the White House and later used taxpayer dollars to fly Hunter Biden and a business associate to Mexico City on Air Force Two. Biden business associate Devon Archer testified under oath that Joe Biden frequently joined his son's business meetings, including with oligarchs from Russia and Kazakhstan who funneled millions of dollars to Hunter Biden and his associates.

The evidence also suggests that Joe Biden took official actions that were tied to the Biden family business. Direct emails between Schwerin and Joe Biden increased during times when the Vice President traveled to Ukraine. This is significant because Hunter Biden was appointed to the board of a Ukrainian company, Burisma, which was an appointment meant to leverage the Biden family brand. Vice President Biden subsequently threatened to withhold $1 billion in foreign aid for Ukraine if the prosecutor looking into corruption at Hunter Biden's company was not fired.

All of these revelations point to President Biden's complicity in his son's business dealings. In communications with business associates, Hunter Biden referred to his father as his family's "only asset" and his last name as the "brand." This raises concerns about the abuse of power and the potential for individuals to buy influence with the White House by paying the President's son.

The implications of these findings are substantial. They bring into question the integrity and transparency of the Biden administration and highlight the need for a thorough investigation into the President's role in his son's global influence-peddling scheme. As Rep. Greg Steube noted during a Ways and Means hearing, this evidence provides details that support the claims of Joe Biden's official actions being linked to his family's financial gain.

It is now up to Congress to further investigate these revelations and determine the appropriate course of action. The American people deserve transparency and accountability from their elected officials, especially when it comes to potential abuses of power. The evidence is clear, and it is crucial that these allegations are thoroughly addressed.
