The Dam Is About to Burst: Whistleblower Documents Link Joe Biden Directly to Hunter's Crooked Business Dealings

Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley did not mince words in his latest missive to top U.S. law enforcement officials.
In an Oct. 13 letter, Grassley stated that the FBI may possess “significant, impactful, and voluminous evidence” of “potential criminal conduct by Hunter Biden and James Biden,” President Joe Biden’s brother. Moreover, he wrote, the president “may have been involved.”
The Washington Examiner obtained a copy of the letter, which can be viewed below, on Monday. It was sent to Attorney General Merrick Garland, FBI Director Christopher Wray, and Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss, who is leading the criminal investigation into Hunter Biden.

Grassley, an Iowa senator and the ranking Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee, bases his claims on credible whistleblower disclosures made to his office. The evidence includes a summary of an Oct. 23, 2020, FBI interview with Tony Bobulinski, Hunter Biden’s former business partner.
According to Grassley’s letter, Bobulinski told agents that Hunter Biden and James Biden were working with foreign nationals linked to the Chinese Communist Party on “potential business deals and investments while Joe Biden was Vice President; however, that work remained intentionally uncompensated while Joe Biden was Vice President.”

It continues:
“After Joe Biden left the Vice Presidency, the summary makes clear that Hunter Biden and James Biden worked with CEFC [a Chinese energy company tied to the CCP] and affiliated individuals to compensate them for that past work and the benefits they procured for CEFC. According to the summary, Hunter Biden, James Biden and their business associates created a joint venture that would serve as a vehicle to accomplish that financial compensation, and that arrangement was made sometime after a meeting in Miami between Hunter Biden and CEFC officials in February 2017. According to the summary, that vehicle was called SinoHawk. … [A]ccording to the summary, 10 percent of Hunter Biden’s interest was to be held for Joe Biden. Attached to this letter is the Oneida Operating Agreement which lists Hunter Biden, James Biden and their business associates and the percentage of interest for each individual.”

This compensation, Grassley wrote, came in the form of “an unsecured $5 million loan, intended to be forgivable, from CEFC in 2017.”
He cited a separate document that alleged that “Hunter Biden yelled at CEFC officials at a meeting for failing to fund the joint venture.” Further, it said that when the payment still had not been made in July 2017, “James Biden considered calling CEFC officials and threatening to withdraw Biden family support from future deals.”

Fancy that.
Grassley noted that a “$5 million wire from a company connected to CEFC” was made in August 2017 that “could have been the money originally intended for SinoHawk.”
However, the funds were “not transmitted to the SinoHawk joint venture.” Instead, they were transferred to another company called Hudson West II, “which could partially explain SinoHawk’s eventual failure. … As noted in our report and our floor speeches, the money from the wire was transferred from Hudson West III to Hunter Biden’s firm, Owasco, and James Biden’s firm, Lion Hall Group, apparently circumventing SinoHawk.”

The senator said this transaction “formed a sufficient basis to open a full field investigation on pay-to-play grounds; however, it is unclear whether the FBI did so and whether the information is part of the ongoing criminal investigation by U.S. Attorney Weiss.”
The FBI has documents showing that Biden met with his son and Bobulinski “at a conference in Los Angeles on May 2, 2017, and May 3, 2017.”

Finally, Grassley referenced “a series of documents relating to information on Mykola Zlochevsky, the owner of Burisma, and his business and financial associations with Hunter Biden.”
Hunter and his business partner Devin Archer were famously given lucrative positions on the Ukrainian energy company Burisma’s board of directors in 2014. Then-Vice President Joe Biden was serving as the Obama administration’s point man to the notoriously corrupt country at the time.

Most significant of all, the senator wrote, “These documents also indicate that Joe Biden was aware of Hunter Biden’s business arrangements and may have been involved in some of them.” [Emphasis added.]
Grassley has written a series of letters to the FBI based on the allegations of whistleblowers who have reached out to his office. In his current letter, he questioned whether the FBI has “followed normal investigative procedure to determine the truth and accuracy of the information.”
Or has the bureau “shut down investigative activity based on improper disinformation claims in advance of the 2020 election” as it has done with the other information he wrote to the FBI about over the summer?
He wondered if “U.S. Attorney Weiss has performed his own due diligence on these and related allegations.”

He noted that neither the Justice Department nor the FBI have “disputed the accuracy of the allegations that I have made public since May 31, 2022. The Justice Department’s and FBI’s continued silence on these matters is deafening and further erodes their credibility.”
The senator demanded answers. He wrote, “Simply put, enough is enough.”

Grassley writes a potent letter. His latest, however, is especially significant because it ties President Biden to his son’s foreign business dealings for the first time. It states that the elder Biden might have even been involved.

In 2020, when news first broke of Hunter Biden’s infamous laptop, feeding suspicions about his questionable business dealings — and personal life — Biden supporters and the mainstream media were quick to cast the story as “Russian disinformation.” Revelations like those in Grassley’s letter make that harder all the time.
There is no doubt Merrick Garland and Christopher Wray will do their best to ignore it, as they have with each of Grassley’s previous letters.
But they won’t be able to hide forever. Like it or not, Congress has oversight authority. In three weeks, it’s highly likely that Republicans will win the majority in the House. And it’s becoming more possible by the day the GOP could take back control of the Senate as well.
Just as the FBI’s malfeasance during the 2016 election was ultimately revealed, this will be, too. The reputations of the bureau and the Justice Department are already in shambles. When details of their second campaign to influence a presidential election are made public, it will be checkmate.

Almost All Corporate Executives Believe That Economic Conditions Are About To Get Significantly Worse

TUESDAY, OCT 18, 2022 - 05:40 PM
Authored by Michael Snyder via The Economic Collapse blog,

Are the months ahead going to be very painful for our economy? This is something that I have been arguing for a long time, and apparently the vast majority of corporate CEOs now agree with me. Of course economic conditions are not exactly good at this moment. Core U.S. inflation just rose to a 40 year high, mortgage rates just hit the highest level in more than two decades, home values are plummeting all over the nation, and retail sales in the United States unexpectedly fell in September. If you think that the U.S. economy is performing well right now, there is a very large bridge on the west coast that I would like to sell you. Unfortunately, it appears that economic conditions are about to get significantly worse.



In fact, one recent survey found that 98 percent of corporate CEOs are planning “for a U.S. recession over the next year or year and a half”…

Nearly all CEOs are readying for the U.S. economy to fall into a recession, according to a survey released Thursday by The Conference Board.
The survey, The Conference Board Measure of CEO Confidence, found that 98% of CEOs indicated they were preparing for a U.S. recession over the next year or year and a half. That figure is five percentage points higher than in the third-quarter survey.

Talk about a consensus.
But why is the number only 98 percent?
What are the other 2 percent thinking?
This week we also learned that a model created by Bloomberg economists is now forecasting a 100 percent chance of a recession within the next 12 months…

A U.S. recession is effectively certain in the next 12 months in new Bloomberg Economics model projections, a blow to President Joe Biden’s economic messaging ahead of the November midterms.
The latest recession probability models by Bloomberg economists Anna Wong and Eliza Winger forecast a higher recession probability across all timeframes, with the 12-month estimate of a downturn by October 2023 hitting 100%, up from 65% for the comparable period in the previous update.

Of course it is pretty easy to forecast a recession when we are already in one.
But I don’t want to let that detail detract from the point that I am trying to make.
The point that I am trying to make is that the business community is bracing for things to get really bad in the months ahead.
And there are some sectors of the economy where things are already falling apart at a frightening pace.
For example, home prices are now being slashed “at a record clip”…

Home sellers are slashing their asking prices at a record clip as surging mortgage rates drive a downturn in the US housing market, according to a recent report from real estate firm Redfin.
About 7.9% of home listings reported price drops during the four-week period ending Oct. 9, according to a rolling average compiled by Redfin. That figure marked a record high and a significant uptick compared to the same period last year, when just 4% of listings reported price cuts.

A new housing crash is here.
And just like we witnessed in 2008, it is going to cause immense pain for Wall Street.
Sadly, there is a lot of pain on Main Street as well.
Every single day, more Americans are falling out of the middle class and into poverty. As a result, our homeless population is absolutely exploding.
If you can believe it, the New York Post is reporting that there are approximately 120 tent cities in Washington D.C. right now…

In the past two years, homeless encampments have exploded in Washington D.C., as both the city and federal governments lifted enforcement measures during the COVID-19 pandemic — and made it a no-brainer for itinerants to lay down roots by providing for their every need.
A tour by The Post of the district’s major tourist areas this week found at least 35 vagrants in residence at a National Park Service site two blocks from the White House; more than 20 in the green spaces surrounding the State Department complex; and five across the street from the infamous Watergate Hotel.
And these sites accounted for less than 5 percent of the estimated 120 tent cities in Washington D.C.

Wow.
If things are this bad already, what will our major cities look like once economic conditions really start to spiral out of control?
Unfortunately, the man in the White House is in an advanced state of mental decline, and he is in complete denial about what is happening…

The comment came during a conversation with a reporter at a Baskin Robbins in Portland, Oregon, who asked the president if he had any worry about the strength of the U.S. dollar amid rising inflation.
With a chocolate chip ice cream cone in his hand, Biden answered: “I’m not concerned about the strength of the dollar. I’m concerned about the rest of the world. Our economy is strong as hell.”

Really?
Our economy is “strong as hell”?
I understand that he is trying to help Democrats do well in November, but nobody is going to believe such a delusional statement.
At this moment, the U.S. economy is in the worst shape that it has been since 2008, and the Federal Reserve seems determined to push us over the edge by raising interest rates even more.
In fact, James Bullard says that the Fed may raise rates by 75 basis points in both November and December…

Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis President James Bullard left open the possibility that the central bank would raise interest rates by 75 basis points at each of its next two meetings in November and December, while saying it was too soon to make that call.
The Fed hiked rates by 75 basis points for the third straight meeting last month, to a target range of 3% to 3.25%. Officials projected 125 basis points of tightening for the rest of the year, suggesting a 75 basis-point move in November and 50 basis points in December. A further 25 basis points of tightening was penciled in for 2023, according to their median estimate.

It would be absolutely suicidal to raise rates by 75 basis points in each of the next two months.
But I think that the Fed might do it anyway.
In any event, the “Great American Economic Meltdown” that so many of us have been waiting for is here, and that is going to mean a tremendous amount of pain for all of us in 2023 and beyond.
In 2008, the Fed was able to contain the bleeding by pushing interest rates all the way to the floor and by pumping massive amounts of fresh money into the financial system.
This time around the Fed isn’t going to be able to make such dramatic moves because they are scared to death of inflation.
We really are facing a nightmare scenario, and virtually every CEO in America realizes that tough times are ahead.
Things could have turned out very differently if our leaders had made better decisions in the years leading up to this crisis.
But that didn’t happen, and so now we all get to suffer as a result.
