Federal agents found out during the 2016 election that Joe Biden met with his son Hunter’s Chinese business partners during a trip to Beijing in 2013, but they kept it a secret.
According to Secret Service travel records obtained by conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch, Hunter Biden took 411 trips across 29 countries between 2009 and 2014 while his father was US Vice President. On several of these trips, Hunter Biden was hidden from public view or was already waiting in the car before Joe Biden departed the plane.
Notably, Hunter Biden traveled to Beijing with then-VP Joe Biden in 2013 to meet with Chinese banker Jonathan Li.
Hunter Biden received a $1.5 billion loan from the Bank of China 13 days after traveling on Air Force Two with his father back in 2013. The Secret Service has redacted documents related to that trip.
Joe Biden has repeatedly denied being involved in Hunter’s overseas business deals.
“I have never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings,” Biden previously said to reporters.
However, newly released documents reveal Hunter Biden connected Joe Biden to his Chinese business associates in a Beijing hotel after Joe Biden met with President Xi Jinping.
“They got to meet Dad. All very good. Talk later,” Hunter Biden said in a December 2013 email to his Rosemont Seneca business partner Devon Archer.
Hunter also said his dad was “in love” with Xi Jinping.
“I think they are in love with each other,” Hunter Biden said in emails, according to Just The News. “They all most kissed on departure.”
