Psaki claims WH has ‘no confirmation’ Hunter Biden got $3.5M from Russia, still won’t say if he divested from China

White House press secretary Jen Psaki on Friday brushed off questions about President Biden’s conflicts of interest in Russia and China — telling The Post that she had “no confirmation” of the findings of a Senate report that found a firm linked to Hunter Biden got $3.5 million from a Russian billionaire who has yet to face US sanctions.

-snip-

“On Russia, you told me last year that you were unfamiliar with the Senate report that alleged that the first son or a company linked to the first son received $3.5 million from the richest woman in Russia. Subsequent reporting indicates that President Biden, when he was vice president, had a dinner in Georgetown with the same woman in 2015,” The Post began.

“This Yelena Baturina, she has not been sanctioned yet by the US government. How is President Biden navigating conflicts of interest when it comes to sanctioning people who have done business with this family? And can you explain to us what this $3.5 million was for?”

Psaki brushed off the premise of the question saying, “I don’t have any confirmation of the accuracy of that report, so I have no further details.”

Is this your neocon tactic now…threaten Biden and family until he starts a nuclear war with Russia and China?

Putinista logic:

Ukrainian bribes to Biden Crime Family = Bad

Russia bribes to Biden Crime Family = Good

Burisma bribes to Biden Crime Family = $3.0M = Bad

Elena Baturina bribes to Biden Crime Family = $3.5M = Good

I was wondering when you’d transition to new material. Well done!

“Baturina became Russia’s only female billionaire when her plastics company, Inteko, received a series of Moscow municipal contracts while her husband was mayor,” it said in providing background on the businesswoman.

The report described her involvement with Biden as “a financial relationship,” but declined to delve deeper into why the wire transfer was made.

Y’all are so obvious. This should have been done 6 years ago but since Nuclear war hasn’t started then let’s blackmail Biden into doin it. You start crap and then escalate like petulant kids. Nothing but a bunch of keyboarding incompetent liars and thieves.

The report described her involvement with Biden as “a financial relationship,”

The Ukraine is ranked the 4th most corrupt country in the world, led by Russia at 3. Biden is involved up to his neck and so is nearly every other American oligarch.

The $3.5 million from Baturina was just one wire transfer to Hunter and The Big Guy. There was more:

Baturina also sent 11 wires totaling more than $390,000 to a company called BAK USA LLC, with nine transactions — amounting to about $240,000 — transferred through a Rosemont Seneca Thornton account, the report says.

BAK USA was a start-up, computer tablet manufacturing company in Buffalo that Gov. Cuomo repeatedly touted as a “success” for his “START-UP NY” development program before the company abruptly shut down in 2018, filing for bankruptcy protection the following year.

Ukraine officials also provided written proof of Hunter & his ‘business partner’ each getting $1 million a year from Burisma years ago.....

“…threaten Biden and family until he starts a nuclear war with Russia and China?”

Nope, the objective is to threaten Biden and family enough so he will happily resign from his figurehead position and the REAL authority in control of WH policy is unmasked. Of course, nobody has any idea what the next step then might be, as virtually all the Executive Branch is compromised by now.
