Turns out the organization extends beyond the family . Politico has an expose that details the interconnected relationship between family and associates .

Quid pro Joe has long contended that there was a firewall between Hunter and Jim Biden's business interests and his official work as a "public servant" .

But House impeachment inquiry interviews, public records and emails reviewed by POLITICO show that members of his inner circle were regularly enmeshed in those dealings: Many of the president’s closest staffers and advisers have doubled as his relatives’ business associates, both during and after their stints working for the man at the center of the Biden family orbit.

How Joe Biden’s personal aides got involved in his relatives’ business dealings - POLITICO

A member of VP Biden's secret service staff ;Dale Pupillo ,doubled as an investigator for Jim Biden to check out Patrick Ho ,a Chinese business associate of Hunter in 2017 Ho had been in the Chinese Xi inner circle before becoming head of CEFC China Energy ;one of the lead companies of Xi's Belt and Road Initiative .

He earned close to $5 million working with Ho and another corrupt Chinese businessman , Ye Jianming.

This NBC article just describes part of the web of corruption ;bribery ;money laundering that Hunter just happened to be part of .

Ho was arrested in NY in 2017 for money laundering and violating Foreign Corrupt Practices Act(FCPA) . He made a call to Jim presumably by mistake intending to call Hunter .
He served time in jail in NYC before conveniently being deported .

Politico details how Jim Biden has profited from Quid's "public service " for years . 1975 he got a loan from Senator Biden's former law partners to start a night club business. He has been tapping into Quid's influence ever since.

One of those partners ; is Quid's consigliere . Mel Monzack; besides being Quid's personal attorney is a registered agent for the president’s personal S Corporation, CelticCapri, which handles income from activities such as writing and speaking fees.
In recent years, Monzack, who did not respond to requests for comment, has also served as Jim Biden’s personal attorney, according to the younger Biden’s testimony.


The Politico report is very detailed . Suffice it to say that the web is so interconnected that Quid's personal physician is involved in the Biden businesses having helped Jim in a deal to use VA vacant space as part of a business deal with a company called Americore ;which is accused of massive Medicare fraud.

Often there seems to be a degree of separation between the Bidens and direct involvement in the corruption .But the onion being peeled appears to be a glass onion with many layers that you can see right through.

Great post, Tom. Keep the good info coming. Hopefully, someday an intrepid liberal will show up on this site to attempt to respond.

Someone on Facebook posted the pic below. I responded with, "The party of Bill and Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden cannot honestly run a presidential campaign by appealing to personal moral character."

History is replete with examples of imperfect heroes . Go to the Bible . There are many examples.

King David known for slaying Goliath had an adulterous affair that he committed murder to conceal.
Soloman had countless sex partners.

In our lifetime these Presidents have had affairs
Ike
JFK
Johnson
Nixon may have had a mistress and affair with Zsa Zsa Gabor
Ford allegedly had an affair with a German spy
GHW Bush allegedly had an affair with Jennifer Fitzgerald
Bubba 's affairs are well known
A woman who committed suicide claimed GW Bush sexually assaulted her.

Before that FDR had an affair with Elanor Roosevelts secretary ,Lucy Mercer Rutherfurd

Some of these are worshipped by Dems.

And I did not even bring up the corruption of some of these heroes .
