James Biden’s Business Partner Says He Worked With Qatari Officials, Sought Money From Sovereign Wealth Fund: Report
New York Sun ^ | 04/29/2024 | Matthewe Rice

The president’s brother, James Biden, will likely receive renewed focus from the fledgling House impeachment inquiry following disclosures about his involvement with Qatari government officials and his attempts to gain access to the country’s sovereign wealth fund.

James Biden — who has already appeared for a transcribed interview with the impeachment investigators — has been scrutinized for more than a year due to his decades-long career as a lobbyist. The first brother has made tens of millions of dollars over the years by working for the tobacco and healthcare industries, among other ventures.

His foray into Qatar and its sovereign wealth fund, which began in 2017, could put him back in the hot seat. His involvement was first reported by Politico.

Mr. Biden’s former business partner, Michael Lewitt, testified to a bankruptcy court that the first brother attempted to work with “members of the Qatari government.” His goal was to find funding for a failing chain of hospitals that were owned by the healthcare company Americore, which paid James Biden while also allegedly committing Medicare fraud.

Shortly after his brother left the vice presidency, James Biden and his partners began contacting members of the Qatari government about funding for Americore. He went so far as to invoke his family name in a draft letter to the country’s sovereign wealth fund, the Qatar Investment Authority.

“My family could provide a wealth of introductions and business opportunities at the highest levels that I believe would be worthy of the interest of His Excellency,” James Biden wrote in the draft letter with his business partner, Amer Rustom. “On behalf of the Biden family, I welcome your interest here.”

Americore was failing at the time, and James Biden committed to raising $30 million to keep the rural hospital network open.

Qatar has for years been implicated in a number of influence-peddling schemes in order to win favor in the western world. The most notable example was the corruption scandal at the European Parliament, where lawmakers were accused of “participation in a criminal organization, money laundering, and corruption,” according to prosecutors.

James Biden Testifies Joe Biden Got $40,000 Dirty Money
From Hunter Biden’s Laundered Chinese Money Deal
thegatewaypundit.com ^ | 3/1/2024 | CRISTINA LAILA

The House Oversight Committee in March released a transcript of James Biden’s February 21 closed-door impeachment inquiry interview.

Joe Biden’s slimy brother and ‘family fixer’ James Biden worked with Hunter Biden on various overseas business ventures.

One of their more notable ventures included CEFC, an energy company linked to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

James Biden admitted to lawmakers that Joe Biden received $40,000 in laundered Chinese funds.

Joe Biden has repeatedly claimed he never took a dime from China and was never involved with his son Hunter’s overseas business dealings.

A demonstrable lie.

Biden, in a ‘catch me if you can’ moment, taunted reporters last June inquiring about his family’s corruption and asked, “Where’s the money?”

FLASHBACK TO JUNE: “Where’s the money?”

Today, we learned Biden received $200K from his brother — a business partner of Hunter — directly into his personal bank account.
