The Imperial Palace is going to have a real hard time explaining these new emails incriminating Hunter Biden. The spin doctors can’t prescribe “Russian disinformation” because this set didn’t come from Hunter’s naughty notebook.
Incriminating new emails
Hunter Biden really screwed the pooch this time. Explosive new emails published for the first time document exchanges between Hunter’s business contacts which “indicate that the president’s son requested an annual retainer of $2 million to help recover billions in Libyan assets frozen by the Obama administration.” He also demanded a huge bonus for “success.”
News outlet Business Insider claims they got their hands on them while “reporting on an unrelated matter.” That’s important because these messages “are not connected to the controversial emails from Hunter Biden’s laptop, which his supporters have claimed were distributed as part of a disinformation campaign.”
While the deal eventually fell through, these new emails “offer a window into the mechanics of Beltway influence peddling.” In particular, “the stock that was put in Biden’s political connections — particularly his relationship with his father, who was vice president at the time.” The saga begins January 28, 2015. That’s when “Sam Jauhari, a Democratic donor with businesses in the Persian Gulf (pictured above with Joe Biden), who was helping spearhead the Libya project,” sent an email to Sheikh Mohammed al-Rahbani. The Sheikh is “another Obama campaign donor.”
Jauhari spelled out the details of Biden family demands. According to other documents obtained by Insider. Jauhari and his partners “expected to pocket as much as 5% of whatever sanctioned money they could free up for Libya. That meant a possible payday in the hundreds of millions. It’s unclear whether any ‘success fees’ for Biden would have been pegged in some way to those proceeds.”
As detailed in the first of the two new emails, “Per phone conversation I met with #2 son. He wants $2 per year retainer +++ success fees. He wants to hire his own people – it can be close circle of people for confidentiality. His dad is deciding to run or not.”
