    Nice effort, but waste of time. The left knows China owns Biden and they don't really care.

    U.S. Bribery Case Sheds Light on Mysterious Chinese Company

    The accusations against Mr. Ho, detailed in a criminal complaint filed in Manhattan, became public this week after officials charged him and Cheikh Gadio, a former Senegalese official who acted as a fixer for Mr. Ho, with international money laundering and violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Mr. Gadio was arrested on Friday and Mr. Ho on Saturday, the Justice Department said.

    The complaint does not name the Chinese company Mr. Ho represented, but the specifics of the case make clear the company’s identity: CEFC China Energy Company.


    CEFC has risen suddenly from a little known Chinese company to a major player in the global energy business, with investments in Europe, the Middle East, Central Asia and Africa. In September, the Chinese conglomerate took a $9 billion stake in Rosneft, Russia’s state-owned energy giant and a subject of sanctions by the United States.

    CEFC has played to China’s geopolitical ambitions. It is among a small number Chinese companies to receive Beijing’s approval to chase splashy deals at a time when the government has mostly restricted overseas acquisitions. The investments have largely meshed with China’s strategy to court other countries through infrastructure and energy investment.

    Chinese businesses like CEFC are increasingly mixing money with diplomacy as they scour the world to secure valuable natural resources. The criminal complaint against Mr. Ho shows how the practice can be distorted, offering rare insight into a vast, mysterious conglomerate with ties to the Chinese Communist Party.

    Patrick Ho's first call was to James Biden, who was surprised and believed he was trying to reach Hunter Biden. lol

    Actually, what it does mean is that trump is a complete idiot for thinking that the Hunter Biden smear is a smart move as he swirls the drain two weeks before the election.

    "A coalition of former intelligence officials issued a joint letter condemning a recent smear campaign against Hunter Biden, the son of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, saying it appeared to have the hallmarks of a Russian disinformation campaign meant to influence the upcoming election.

    “Each of us believes deeply that American citizens should determine the outcome of elections, not foreign governments,” the group wrote in a letter first obtained by Politico. “It is for all these reasons that we write to say that the arrival on the U.S. political scene of emails purportedly belonging to [former] Vice President Biden’s son Hunter, much of it related to his time serving on the Board of the Ukrainian gas company Burisma, has all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.”

    Professionals are, as a group, cautious, so they step just short of saying the obvious.. But this stinks all the way to New Jersey and back. It screams Russian dirty tricks.

    the Director of National Intelligence said there is NO EVIDENCE of this being Russian interference.

    The left wing is LYING about this.

    So it’s ok to profit off of access to politicians, as long as you’re not a blood relation?
    No that’s not it because you’re ok with Ivanka doing it...

    And two of the most notorious liars in this country - Jim Clapper and John Brennan - signed that letter.

    All they said in the letter was it has 'all the earmarks'. You could say that about anything.

    The Rat is a political hack, not an intel guy.

    He's the one lying.

    You have the same proof that Kamala exchanged sex for political favor as I have proof President Trump gave BJ to Putin during meeting without US intelligence present.
    As to leadership - how many people from Kamala team will be criminally charged?

    sure why not? people make money off their connections all the time.

    the issue is it’s not family, and the president want nor did he know.

    you don’t think Cohen was getting clients because he knew trump prior to taking the white house?
