CNN Host’s ‘No Evidence’ Talking Point Gets Dismantled With A Quickness [WATCH]

Newly released photos from the National Archives show then-Vice President Joe Biden meeting with two of his son Hunter Biden’s Chinese business associates, directly contradicting Biden’s repeated claims that he never interacted with his family’s foreign business partners.

These revelations add fuel to allegations of Biden family corruption, which have been the focus of ongoing investigations and public scrutiny.

The controversy deepened after CNN anchor Abby Phillip stated, “I’m still waiting to see the proof of Joe Biden enriching himself. I take his brother and his son, perhaps.”

The statement drew immediate backlash, particularly from Republican Rep. Mike Lawler of New York.

Lawler dismantled Phillip’s narrative, pointing out the intricate network of shell companies allegedly used by the Biden family to funnel money, ultimately benefiting Joe Biden.

The National Archives recently released photos showing Biden meeting with Jonathan Li, the incoming CEO of the Chinese-government-backed firm BHR Partners, and Ming Xue, the company’s managing director.

These meetings occurred during a December 2013 trip to Beijing, where Biden also introduced Hunter to Chinese President Xi Jinping.

Emails from Hunter Biden describe the visit as “pretty amazing,” noting that Biden and Xi spent seven hours together, far exceeding the original two-hour meeting plan.

This meeting coincided with Xi’s early push for China’s “Belt and Road Initiative” and the co-launch of BHR Partners, a venture involving Hunter Biden.

The photos align with existing allegations about the Biden family’s financial dealings.

In a May 2017 email, Biden family associate James Gilliar proposed a 10% stake in a deal for the “big guy,” widely believed to be Joe Biden.

Former Biden associate Tony Bobulinski confirmed that the reference was to the then-former vice president.

In another instance, Hunter Biden wrote to a CEFC China Energy associate in July 2017, stating he was “sitting here with my father” and expecting payment.

Shortly after, $5.1 million was transferred to entities linked to Hunter and James Biden.

These dealings reportedly focused on facilitating Chinese access to U.S. natural gas assets, further highlighting concerns about potential conflicts of interest.

Despite mounting evidence and testimony, Biden has consistently denied any involvement in his family’s business ventures.

Witnesses, including Hunter Biden, have testified that Biden met with foreign associates multiple times.

Critics have drawn comparisons to the treatment of former President Donald Trump.

The FBI raided Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence in 2022 to retrieve classified materials, including cocktail napkins and dinner menus, while the National Archives delayed releasing photos directly linking Biden to his son’s business dealings.

These revelations have reignited debates over transparency, ethics, and accountability in the Biden-Harris administration.

With increasing evidence of the Biden family’s financial ties to foreign governments, the call for further investigation has only grown louder.

The release of these photos just weeks before Biden’s planned retirement on January 20 has further spotlighted the issue.

For many, the photos represent a smoking gun, challenging Biden’s long-standing denials and raising questions about his administration’s integrity.
