'Biden Center' At UPenn Named In Complaint Alleging Undisclosed China Ties
campusreform.org ^ | May 26, 2020

Posted on 05/29/2020 2:47:58 PM PDT by Helicondelta

A nonprofit watchdog organization has filed a complaint with the U.S. Department of education regarding alleged undisclosed donations from China to the University of Pennsylvania and its Biden Center for Diplomacy and Public Engagement, an arm of the institution named for former Vice President and presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden.

The National Legal and Policy Center said in a May 21 announcement that "since 2017 alone," the year the Biden center opened, it has received "over $70 million from China, of which $22 million were listed as 'Anonymous.'" The complaint specifically names the Biden Center, which is part of the University of Pennsylvania.

"From 2013-2019, the University of Pennsylvania received more than $67 million from China sources. More significantly, after the Penn Biden Center opened here in Washington, D.C., in February 2018, the China gifts poured in all the more, and continued after Biden announced his candidacy of the presidency on April 25, 2019," the complaint alleges.

NLPC chair Peter Flaherty said upon filing the complaint, "it is apparent that the Biden Center is beholden to China for its operations,”

Biden Center Under Investigation for Illegal Donations From China
DB Daily Update ^ | David Blackmon
FR Posted on 5/25/2020, 9:19:56 AM by EyesOfTX

If the label says “Biden,” it was definitely influenced by China. – John Solomon at JustTheNews.com is reporting that The National Legal and Policy Center has asked the U.S. Department of Education to investigate its findings that the University of Pennsylvania (Penn) has over the past several years accepted more than $22 million in anonymous China-originated donations to its Biden Center and failed to properly disclose the contributions.

From Solomon’s report:

The complaint, filed by the National Legal and Policy Center, says that over the past three years, the university has accepted around $22 million in anonymous funding from Chinese sources. That’s out of a total of more than $70 million from Chinese donors during that time, the NLPC said.
Those significant funds, including the anonymous amounts, rolled in after the Biden Center was announced in early 2017 and launched in February 2018. The center is located in downtown Washington, D.C.

Federal records show that the University of Pennsylvania has received significant donations from China since the opening of the center. One 2018 donation alone totals $14.5 million; it is listed as “anonymous” in federal records.
The NLPC alleges the university may have violated federal law in accepting those anonymous monetary donations. The Higher Education Act mandates schools report the national origins of any donations above $250,000 although not necessarily the individual names of donors themselves.
[End]

This serves as just one more reminder that Biden, his son and his brother have long been in the pockets of Chinese interests. The stark reality facing our country today is that, should Biden manage to win the election in November, all of the gains President Donald Trump has made through the sheer force of his will in terms of U.S./China relations and trade policy will be immediately reversed the day after Biden assumes office.

If you like the fact that virtually all U.S. antibiotics and PPE are sourced through China at some point along their supply chains and want it to stay that way, vote for Biden. Because that would be a fait accompli should he win. There are trillions of dollars at stake, and Creepy Uncle Quid Pro China Joe wants to ensure his family continues to get its fair share.

Across Biden Charitable Organizations, A Refusal to Disclose Funding
Washington Free Beacon ^ | 5/21/20 | Alana Goodman
FR Posted on 5/21/2020, 6:12:22 PM by Artemis Webb

When Joe Biden announced he was opening a foreign policy center at the University of Pennsylvania, the goals for the project were ambitious.

At its founding in 2018, Biden described the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement as “a place where policymakers here and abroad will know they can be in touch with some of the best minds.”

The center is one of several organizations Biden founded since leaving the White House in 2017, including the domestic policy-focused Biden Institute at the University of Delaware and the Biden Cancer Initiative, all launched in 2017. All three entities have refused to reveal the sources of their funding, a potential landmine for the Democrats’ presumptive presidential nominee that raises questions about the influence of individual, corporate, and foreign donations on the presidential candidate.

The lack of transparency has drawn the attention of a watchdog group that is now demanding that the federal government investigate whether foreign money has flowed to the Biden Center in Philadelphia.

“UPenn paid Biden over 700K”

That’s Chinese money going into Biden’s pockets.

Yes. There’s plenty here for the FBI to start a counterintelligence investigation.

Looks like the center was set up to funnel money from China to Biden.

China donates money to the center, Biden is named a professor making 700K a year and never teaches any classes.

Yep, has a Clinton Foundation kinda stink to it, doesn’t it? And of coure the idea of Joe Biden being a “professor” is absurd on its face. What sort of class could this doofus teach? “Malarkey 101.”

Remember when Sinless Joe Biden pled innocent——said he and Hunter DID NOT discuss Hunter’s lucrative billion dollar Chinese deal on Air Force Two?

SPIT: of course not.....this was all planned way ahead in Joe Biden’s tax-paid VP office by Biden’s tax-paid staff arranging all the details......
Hunter would be ready to cash in when they got to China (thanks to US taxpayers subsidizing the Biden parasites).

Sure enough within 10 days, the CCP gave Hunter a license to do business.

Is this his slush fund, like the Clinton Crime Family Foundation is Hillary’s slush fund?

It's incredible how many frauds are being attached to this Joe O'Biden crook.

What gets me is how brazen this con was, and UPENN was in on it and didn't fear the public tar and feathering it's soon going to get:

I did a quick Google search and found a list of classes they teach at UPENN;s Biden Center for Foreign Diplomacy:

Wonder what UPENN's most famous alum, President Donald J. Trump, thinks of this Biden Center...
