    looks like the thing biden claimed was a lie is actually true. This is a bit more nerve racking than that though. Don’t think for one second that China didn’t have a hand in releasing this info. Could this be a warning shot to biden? And if it is what other info could they hold against him? How could it effect the president if he doesn’t want it to come out?

    This is what democrats worried about vis a vis Trump. Turns out, it was all the dress rehearsal for Biden...

    LOL! Cathay is an American bank founded by a Chinese immigrant in 1962

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathay_Bank

    Anyone can walk into one of their US offices, or go online and open an account. Does that mean they collude with the Chinese government?

    I suppose this article caters to the low-information voter who sees "China" in the headline, and automatically assumes corruption. Objective achieved....

    If you read this article there are branches in the Chinese mainland. As well as this fact we also know China operates police stations in the US as well. Personally I don’t trust any business that does business in China. As a communist nation they have rules that we are not used to and they can influence any business that works within their boarders.

    Lmao by the way. I don’t read wiki. Find something else

    They also have a branch in China? And? Which large business doesn't have a branch in China these days? I guess you need to stop using your iPhone, buying at Walmart, ordering from Amazon....

    Are you colluding with China because your iPhone was made there?

    I have trust issues with iPhone as well. I have trust issues with all smart phones. But you think a bank just said hey guys…. Look over here… let me send these financial records to you. What kind of bank with any integrity does that? In fact show me another time in history that a bank undermined a sitting president to this nature. What’s your assumption on why it happened?

    If the Biden family is innocent of anything illegal/inappropriate - then fully cooperate; provide all records; offer complete transparency.

    If there is nothing there - won't that embarrass the GOP and the RW media

    I won't get my hopes up that they will for obvious reasons

    1) Joe Biden is a Manchurian Candudate...
    2) Hunter Biden got Untold Tens of Billions from the Chinese to Cause COVID...
    3) The Entire Biden Family is a Chinese Plant that is the Culmination of a 50-Year Plan by the Red Chinese to Rule America...
    *After Nixon's Visit to China in February 1972, The Chinese secretly started donating to the Senatorial Campaign of a unknown 29-year-old New Castle Delaware County Councilman.

    So… what’s your assumption. I know mine has some merit. You think this bank willingly gave it congress without being pushed to do so somehow?

    Well, if a bank is "willingly" giving someones financial records to a partisan politician in government, like Johnson, they are probably violating the banking privacy act. Or, it could be that Johnson is weaponizing government to spy on someone's finances for political reasons. Remember, when you were in arms about the Dems trying to get Trump to release his tax returns? Now, that the shoe is on the other foot, you cheer.

    Of course, it could also be that the Cayman CEO is a Trump supporter, just like the laptop repair guy who gave the laptop to Rudy without reason, other than partisan zeal.

    This entire thread and the article from Fox news is racist. The founder of the bank is an American who came from China 90 years ago. This is Trump vs Judge Curiel all over again. An immigrant came from China and became American. But Fox news and MAGA wants you to believe the founder was born in China so he must be Chinese spy.

    But don’t call them racist. They get offended.

    Of course, it could also be that they were released as a reminder to Biden that "Wait! There is more... maybe." A not so subtle reminder that they have compromising information on Joe and Hunter Biden and to get in line or else.
    Let us think like the Chinese CCP for a moment. What does Joe like to play with that he can't get away with in America? Hint: It usually 4 1/2 feet tall and is carrying a doll.

    BTW: Is that anything like the phone companies and banks giving the FBI the data of everyone withing so many mile of the capitol on J6? They had no authorization or warrants.

    How is it irony? You guys got it backwards. Trump and his followers were the ones screaming about how it would be a tragedy for his banks to turn over any information to Congress and Trump fought that release tooth-and-nail. I don't see Biden and his fans doing the same. Hell, I have yet to see any left winger or Biden supporter actually complaining about this at all. The hypocrisy is on your side of the table.

    Exactly the point. It can be violation of privacy or financial record by Bank and they can go to jail if they brake the law.

    But the way Fox news and Sen Johnson wants us to believes that Chinese-American backed by Chinese government helping Biden.

    The founder is American. End of the story. Who the f$$$ cares the founder was born in China. The guy is American. Only racist MF wants to bring race in this story.

    I find this story absolutely disgusting. This story is based on nothing with anything of significance other than sheer speculation. The insertion of "Chinese" in the little and throughout the article is design to fuel outrage by the MAGA base.

    What is the problem exactly? According to the article:

    While Cathay Bank was founded in the U.S. in 1962 and is currently headquartered in Chinatown, Los Angeles, Calif., they also house representative offices in Beijing, Shanghai and Taipei, according to its website. It also claims to be America’s oldest operating bank founded by Chinese Americans.

    I find this statement really troubling. He admits it is a bank founded by Chinese Americans but just saying Americans don't trust China we have to be concerned that an American has accounts at this bank??? If it is a real concern why not just shut it down instead of all of this innuendo.

    Carter further argued Monday that Americans’ concerns around Biden’s potential Chinese collusion are valid.

    "This isn't just a Chinese bank, this is an American bank that was founded by Chinese Americans," Carter said. "After everything that we've been through with China, at this moment, only 15% of Americans trust China… the American people are rightly concerned. They deserve to have answers. And I think at a minimum, the president needs to make a statement and address people's concerns because they're valid."

    You know what the real article should be:

    Bank releases Biden information to congress. (PERIOD).

    If the information was significant they would be talking about that instead. Absolutely disgusting.

    Where does it look like I’m cheering? I’m obviously displaying a worry about how this information got to congress to begin with. Like I said it shows little integrity on the banks behalf. That’s why it leads me to believe it was a move influenced by China. Nowhere am I cheering the way this came out.


    The article claims they willingly gave it to them. But I call BS. I don’t even want the IRS to have access to my bank account little lone congress.

    It kinda looks like for the Biden’s it’s every man for himself.

    Hunter Biden’s allies reportedly do not trust the White House to defend Hunter and the family’s business associates from the revelations uncovered by the House Oversight Committee.

    The “paranoid” White House’s public relations strategy, which is led by President Joe Biden’s senior adviser Anita Dunn, is geared towards protecting the Biden administration over the Biden family, according to Puck News’ Tara Palmeri. The White House’s focus is contrary to the interests of Hunter, who is the most well known Biden family business associate due to his mistake of abandoning his “Laptop from Hell” at a repair shop in Delaware.

    “Judging by how they handled the communications and P.R. effort during and after the documents scandal and the drip-drip-drip of endless cycles, it’s no wonder Hunter has no faith in them,” a source involved in the Hunter legal defense told Puck in relation to Joe Biden’s classified document scandal. “Their response was baffling and flatfooted.”

    “It makes sense that Hunter would want his own press apparatus when the White House can barely react to their own crisis without pissing off the press and donors and Democratic members of Congress,” the source said.
