Senate report slams Bidens for conflicts of interest, flags possible criminal activity

GOP-led investigation cites 'glaring' evidence of Burisma bribe, suspicious foreign money transfers and sex trafficking.

A year-long Senate investigation concluded Wednesday that Hunter Biden's efforts to cash in on foreign business deals during his father's vice presidency raised alarm among U.S. government officials, who perceived an ethical conflict of interest and flagged concerns about possible criminal activity ranging from bribery to sex trafficking.

The long-awaited joint report by the GOP-led Senate Homeland and Government Affairs and Senate Finance Committees delivered several blockbuster revelations less than two months before Election Day, suggesting Obama administration officials ignored clear warning signs about ethical conflicts and possible extortion risks involving Joe Biden's family.

Perhaps the most explosive revelation was that the U.S. Treasury Department flagged payments collected overseas by Hunter Biden and business partner Devon Archer for possible illicit activities.

The so-called Suspicious Activity Reports flagged millions of dollars in transactions from the Ukrainian gas company Burisma Holdings, a Russian oligarch named Yelena Baturina, and Chinese businessmen with ties to Beijing's communist government, the report said. Senate investigators have yet to determine if the FBI or others investigated the concerns.

"The Treasury records acquired by the Chairmen show potential criminal activity relating to transactions among and between Hunter Biden, his family, and his associates with Ukrainian, Russian, Kazakh and Chinese nationals," the 87-page report disclosed, confirming an earlier report in Just the News.

The report, citing U.S. government records, also raised concerns about possible ties to sex and human trafficking rings. "Hunter Biden paid nonresident women who were nationals of Russia or other Eastern European countries and who appear to be linked to an Eastern European prostitution or human trafficking ring," the report said.

An attorney for Hunter Biden has yet to respond to a emailed request for comment.

Obama knew all of this when it happened...but did nothing. I suspect he got a cut of the deals.

If this report were about any of the Trump children, the election would be over. No one would believe that the father didn’t know and benefit from the bribes and corruption. And they would be right. Trump and his family would be prosecuted and imprisoned.

All of the things the left accuses Trump of are reflections of what THEY are actually doing. Joe Biden was knee deep in both Ukraine and China corruption, helping his family and friends get richer and more powerful.

I figure you’re 99% correct. His wealth after his presidency didn’t come from writing books.

Looks like the President was justified in his Ukraine conduct. Impeachment must be vacated.

Technically, probably “yes” to both questions.
