In 2017, Hunter Biden, son of President Joe Biden, directed a vehement threat towards a Chinese businessman regarding a deal, leveraging his father's influence as a pressure tactic.
Hunter sent a message to Harvest Fund Management chairman Henry Zhao stating that he was with his father, and both were concerned about why a certain agreement was not being honored. This WhatsApp message from July 30, 2017, was disclosed to Congress by IRS whistleblowers investigating Hunter's financial activities.
According to the message, Hunter warned Zhao to resolve the issue before it escalated and explicitly stated that any deviation from his direction would be regrettable.
The Post has reported on Hunter's numerous overseas business ventures in the past, including those in Russia, China, Romania, and Ukraine. Hunter and his associates accumulated approximately $17.3 million between 2014 and 2019 from entities in Ukraine, Romania, and China, $8.3 million of which went directly to him, as testified by IRS whistleblowers to the House Ways and Means Committee.
Zhao, a Communist Party official, has served as the chairman of Harvest Fund Management since 2017, and as the chairman of Harvest Global Investments Ltd. since 2000, as per Bloomberg. In 2013, Zhao played a crucial role in establishing Hunter's investment firm Bohai Harvest RST, also known as BHR Partners, which was formed 12 days after Hunter accompanied then-Vice President Biden on a state visit to Beijing.
Additionally, Zhao was an executive with CEFC China Energy at that time and aided Hunter and his associates in expanding their business with the Chinese energy conglomerate. The insinuations suggest that Hunter was worried about losing a lucrative opportunity with CEFC chairman Ye Jianming, where millions of dollars were at stake.
In a deal separate from his partnership with Zhao, Hunter sought additional funds through a deal with CEFC. An email from May 2017, found on Hunter's laptop, mentioned that this venture included a stake of "10 held by H for the big guy," who was identified by Hunter's associates as Joe Biden.
Shortly after Hunter's threatening messages to Zhao in July, the deal was finalized in a series of payments made to Hunter's law firm. These transactions were immediately flagged as potential criminal financial activity. Eventually, $4.8 million from the deal was transferred to Hunter's Owasco account, as confirmed by the Senate report and the Washington Post.
Hunter's messages to Zhao suggest his dealings with CEFC's Ye Jianming, whom Zhao claimed was willing to cooperate with the Biden family. Jianming, along with CEFC Executive Director Jianjun Zang, first met Hunter in December 2015. In February 2017, Jianming hosted Hunter at a private dinner, promising him $10 million annually for at least three years in return for making "introductions alone." As a token of his goodwill, Jianming later gifted Hunter a diamond worth $80,000.
Hunter's attorney, Christopher Clark, stated on Friday that the IRS whistleblower's testimony was biased and politically motivated. He also asserted that any actions of his client during a period of turmoil and addiction were solely his own and had no connection to his family. Furthermore, he stressed that a five-year-long DOJ investigation concluded this week, and it resulted in Hunter accepting responsibility for two instances of misdemeanor failure to file tax payments and a firearm charge, which will be subject to a pretrial diversion agreement.
Clark insisted that the DOJ investigation was thorough and did not favor his client in any way. He also criticized the leaks related to the investigation as being "biased," "irresponsible," and "illegal." He concluded by stating that it was misleading to make any conclusions based on this document.

Garland, and those covering for the Brandon family, are praying for 4 more years.
The last thing they want is an order not to delete or destroy any emails, evidence, or notes any new Republican administration would bring.
It is harder to tell which is dumber- the Brandon family; or the government Establishment tools desperately trying to cover for them?
If anyone ever wants to know what actual privilege looks like, look no further than Hunter Biden.
The amount of crimes the DOJ will go out of its way to avoid charging him with is beyond belief.
Amazing the lengths progressives will go to to avoid this topic.
There's nothing to avoid. Republicans have been 'investigating' for decades and never produced anything indictable. What you're seeing is investigation fatigue in Democrats. How much of this nonsense are we supposed to bother reacting to? Democrats are all in favor of prosecuting criminals, but that's not what you guys do. As far as I read, Comer & Jordan have squat.
WRT the Hunter plea deals: The reality is that if you or I hadn't paid our taxes, then paid them in full with interest & fines, that would be the end of it. There would be no judicial action that needed a plea. The IRS wouldn't bring a suit because the jury would just say why are we here, this was resolved two and a half years ago.
The same thing goes for the lie on the gun application. The only reason people are talking about it is because of Hunter's book. It's not like being a felon which you can verify. What are they going to do, check the Health App on his phone for dates he was high?
The only reason the pleas exist at all was to try an mitigate the reaction of conservatives. Obviously a waste of time.
I'm pretty jaded when it comes to politicians. But Joe's been in politics for 50 years. If he was dirty, it really seems like something should have surfaced by now. I don't get a Lex Luthor vibe from Joe.
Agreed.
Said it before but it bears repeating…on one screed his haters consider him a blathering idiot and on the very next thread consider him a criminal mastermind. Pick a lane.
Okay, how about an idiot that's criminal behavior is covered?....
For starters, we know millions of dollars have been routed to his family members through dozens of LLCs from international businessmen. We literally just learned his son received millions of dollars from a Chinese official days after Hunter threatened to tell Joe and use him to punish the CCP official.
Is that normal to you? Everyone is innocent if you just put your head in the sand.
No, we do not know that. So, prove it...
Amazing, you're defending a "white privleged" crackhead cause his daddy's a "D"?.....
And if you're gonna reply "prove it"...
I think it's super common (like 99.9%) for people with important/wealthy parents to capitalize on their parents; you'd be stupid not to. Statistically, the idiot offspring of wealthy parents does better than the ivy league educated kid of a middle class family.
I also know two people who have/had drug addicted kids. In both cases nothing the parents tried was successful. I knew the kid that was ultimately murdered. I saw my friend's pain when this happened. Joe loves and supports his kid even though the kid brings him nothing but grief. Both of my friends were unlucky with one kid, they both have other kid(s) who are fine. Maybe Hunter is desperate to compete with Beau's success; desperate to impress his father.
We don't pass guilt for actions to ancestors or descendants. Finally, I don't see evidence being presented that shows Hunter's exploits to be criminal. It looks like people who thought they could manipulate Hunter to compromise Joe were wrong -- Hunter used them instead.
A whole two?.... lucky you!
Perhaps you don't but there seems to be a whole plethora of those that do....
Lol mmmmkay...
Where the fuck have you been for the last seven years of Democrat bullshit investigations?
Before that there were how many years of investigations of Bush Jr, Sr, and Reagan?
It is what both sides do.
Pretending that fucking Democrats and leftists have "investigation fatigue" after the constant BS they have pulled is beyond hypocritical. Brandon, Garland, and their media sycophants; and their lemming followers are waiting breathlessly for their next Trump investigation.
Hunter didn't pay his taxes or fines- his sugar daddy did. Which by the way constitutes a gift. Did Hunter pay taxes on this hefty gift he received? If one of us had been caught- like that cheating on our taxes there wouldn't be a damn plea deal. Especially if was on income of over 1 million dollars. We would have to pay the back taxes, fines, and spent some time in prison. The IRS/DOJ doesn't negotiate with peons.
Tell that to these leftists that were sent to prison over the exact same charge.
Two tier justice at it's finest. Wasn't Kodak rich and famous enough for the DOJ to offer him a cherry plea deal? Maybe he didn't donate enough to Democrats?
The DOJ/FBI should stick to overblown investigations/leaks on Trump; over charging Jan 6th rioters; and harassing/investigating parents that have the audacity of taking an interest in their children's education. They aren't interested in anything else- so stop wasting tax payer money.
The law either applies to everyone or no one. Democrats and leftists are pushing hard for a day that it will be no one.
Were you out of the country for 30 years?
Then Comey said "The fuck you say"; and held out his hand palm side up expectantly.
As both looked on dumbfounded he followed with, "You think I only recorded my conversations with Trump?"
Let us all know when charges are fabricated on either; and they are indicted on all accounts.
It's all part of his plan. Play it straight, be patient, and when they finally stop investigating, in his second term as President... Pow! He springs his trap and all the sudden we're all commies.
I guess I do.........in your case
The Big Guy and Hunter have been spending a lot of public and private father-son quality time together lately: Delaware, Ireland, White House, Camp David. I wonder what they've been talking about? Maybe their business deals with China, Russia, Ukraine, and other countries, 20+ LLCs, hidden $$ millions?
New York Times buries the fact that it has independent confirmation of the whistleblower's testimony in the 21st paragraph
