Nothing is certain, but evidence is mounting that, shortly after Joe Biden became vice president, a scheme was hatched. Biden, a former senator with foreign policy experience, would angle for foreign policy responsibilities, leaving “fundamental transformation” of America to Obama. But there was more …
Treasury documents released by Congressional Republicans credibly suggest a “scheme” – as conceived and executed – more insidious, brazen, and focused on Biden profiting than anyone has yet imagined.
While other documents are being sought, corroboration for whistleblowers, some things are clear – and they are probative. As Chairman Comer’s long report notes: “Evidence … reveals Joe Biden lied to the American people about his involvement in his family’s business schemes,” specifically the way in which “Biden family members dol access for profit around the worlds to the detriment of US interests.”
Some 20 small companies, seemingly shells for money laundering, were set up by the Biden family, into which money from foreign sources – legally questionable actors in corrupt Ukraine, Romania, and Communist China funneled money.
Arguably to avoid federal scrutiny, sums deposited were broken up, spread among accounts, presumably to avoid reporting requirements triggered by CMIR, CTR, and “Suspicious Transaction” regulations.
By itself, these facts should pique the interest of Justice, every member of Congress – their party notwithstanding – and all Americans.
But the scheme appears to have been more detailed, more like traditional organized crime than a two-man operation. In organized crime, a “front” is used. Here, the vice president would travel to countries known for public corruption, demand they root it out. He got authority to be the point on this, unusual for a vice president.
At the same time, Biden prepared to bring his son – possibly others – to serve as what prosecutors call the “bagman,” an “intermediary” between the “front” and party paying protection money, or bribes.
The scheme appears to have started small and expanded, with Biden promising and threatening countries like Ukraine, while widening the aperture to China. Again, his son, the bagman, came along.
Total sums rose into the millions, according to information released, and appear to have been recurring, not one-offs. In some cases, money was paid by foreign entities to the son for expertise he did not have; in others, the route to these accounts is more circuitous, hard to discern, still murky.
The scheme was both simple, and successful, for a time. Joe Biden operating as an anti-corruption front, his son as bagman, perhaps involvement from then-Clinton’s State Department. No one said anything.
This is especially shocking when we ask a central question: For what did countries pay? In some cases, they paid – as Biden has partially admitted – to avoid sanctions or losing foreign aid, specifically Ukraine.
In others, they appear to have wanted “access,” which means either political favors or information, from the Vice President. When the timeline of Biden’s meetings with questionable actors is tied back to documents recording the money flows, real questions emerge.
Open questions are many, but start here: How could Hillary Clinton’s State Department, Eric Holder’s Justice Department, James Comey’s FBI, John Brennan’s CIA, James Clapper’s DNI Office, and all federal eyes NOT have known this was going on? Why did ALL of them say nothing, many when asked?
The answer: Either they knew and felt it was politically dangerous to mention what they knew, did not know but should have known, or were – draw your own conclusions – part of a wider scheme to permit pilfering and profit from public office, like crime families dividing territory, all ends justifying means.
If they knew about all this and did nothing, perhaps they saw Biden’s corruption as the price of Obama’s “fundamental transformation,” or imagined they would gain later from silence. But no one raised a flag.
Worse, as time passed, evidence suggests the scheme grew. Biden likely did not imagine he would be president, especially after Clinton lost to Trump in 2016; Biden’s plan was likely just “take the money and run,” or ride into the sunset with his ill-gotten gains, dubious service.
But that is not what happened. Rather than Clinton winning, covering all their tracks and moving “transformation” forward while normalizing public corruption, Trump won.
That threw more than a monkey wrench into things; it threw the whole monkey. That is likely why names on the foregoing list went apoplectic, panicked, began a political operation to undermine Trump.
Even then, as Biden’s family profited from Chinese and other foreign money, including a huge Chinese “educational” contribution to a university that paid Joe Biden a million dollars for nothing – no flags.
Again, this is likely because no one, not even Joe Biden, believed until April 2019, or mid-COVID 2020, that he would return to public office – and more intense public scrutiny.
Wind the clock forward. What we have just learned, hinted at after Biden became president but in black-and-white after Republican subpoenas have begun to produce documents, is the pieces fit together.
Big foreign money went to the Biden family, could not have been missed by senior law enforcement, Treasury, or banking officials, or their chains of command. Meetings occurred between the then-VP and his son’s “business” contacts, those paying the money. Fallout may be considerable.
In the end, all the flags were there. They are now – of a clear scheme, attempts to cover it up, silence at the top, and a bold robbery of the taxpayers, sale of office, perhaps even sale of national security – not unlike how public corruption and organized crime works all over the world.
The only remaining question: Where is Justice now? Where are Democrats who believe in the country first, their party second? Where are those who put public integrity above public corruption? Biden’s world is collapsing. The sign things are over – is when Democrats start to say they see flags.

since 2008 collapsing publically
People need to not just vote for people but time to vote them out to take back this country and elect leaders that are honest not have people in power to become rich and plant there butts in Washington to stay there until they die and as far as the president we need honest people in that office not what we have now that goes for him and his VP and alot of people in government that goes for that squad as well. Time for people to take back this country before it is to late.
Nice story. Well written. But so what? The corruption in our government runs so deep that nothing is going to be done within the legal system of this country. Until the people take back this country just like we did during the revolution things are only gonna get worse. That’s why the government is so determined to take peoples guns because they know what’s going to happen. 
when “his” world collapses, we go with it. that’s their objective.
This country is being run like the CCP.
As Hot Air’s Jazz Shaw rightly observes:
The mainstream press doesn’t have to deliver false or heavily spun reports to do damage. They can accomplish a lot more by simply ignoring stories. Take, for example, the difference between recent House revelations about the dodgy financial dealing of Biden Incorporated and the show trial(s) against former President Trump. The Media Research Center found that between March 16 and April 5, the major alphabet news outlets (ABC, NBC, CBS) spent 10 hours, 58 minutes, and 17 seconds covering Trump investigation stories. During that same period, they spent exactly zero seconds talking about the Biden family’s financial corruption reports. Not one mention was seen.
Total Corruption! The fish, does indeed, stink from the head! The saddest part of it is, Americans are losing their country, at alarming rate! It pains me to say it, but the ice is getting awfully thin. So very very depressing!
Unfortunately this isn’t all of the problem. Democratic Party members have given “FREE” money to immigrants for years when they came into AMERICA. If anyone doubts this all they have to do is look around your neighborhood. Convenience stores once owned and operated by AMERICANS have been purchased by the government and turned over to immigrants from the Middle Eastern nations along with a house and a pocket full of cash and other items. They have come here searching for the American Dream and the LIBERAL SOCIALISTS have given it to them with no strings attached. They have not done anything to earn these gifts. Yet these same LIBERAL SOCIALISTS permit MILLIONS OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS flood our borders, and do nothing to stop it. Now they want to give healthcare and benefits to these migrants at the expense of taxpayers and AMERICANS SAFETY. This current administration has failed us and finally been CAUGHT WITH THEIR HANDS IN THE COOKIE JAR!!!
Let’s put them and the cookie jar they have emptied behind bars in a true prison, not a “COUNTRY CLUB” prison. Strip them of their wealth and return it to the government to ease the suffering and burden to the AMERICAN PEOPLE!!
This country is going to the devil.when Biden got in office the United States went down hill and we are being sold to other countries.You have got to be blind and deaf not to see the down fall of America when Biden got in office.
Now we just need the mainstream media to actually report on all these findings so the American people can make educated voting choices.
So many people don’t even know any of this is even going on
I hope to God that you are correct. Yet I see the same double standard continuing and no punishment for the lawbreakers. What is it going to take to get the people to open their eyes. My son still says Trump is a crook and, now, Desantis is a Nazi. And there are so many others like him. At least he will admit that Biden is not any good either. But the comment is still there that Biden is still better than Trump.
‘The Biden family is an evil empire and the democrats avidly support them……I am wondering just how many in the democratic party have any shame
Biden’s presidency will only collapse when he reaches room temperature. Even then, Dokktor Jill will try to run him from his coffin.
If your party is unscrupulous (as is today’s Democrat Party) and has total control of the nation’s inner cities (where needed votes can be manufactured), it matters less if your legitimate support (or even your brain) has collapsed.
Please make it collapse faster.
Find a way to put the whole family in prison while joe is still alive.
But all the Dems are in the tank for Biden. Why else would they allow a puppet president governed by handlers to front for their Party? He, just like Hillary and the Comey Cabal, will go their merry way, all the time adding bank to their wealth and voters will either not know or shrug it all off because corruption is so in these days with the Woke crowd it has become boring. Maybe exception: those who actually follow politics and current events and care about our country’s well-being..
“Where are those who put public integrity above public corruption?” RBC. Very of few of those exist any more. God is allowing Satan a time, and things will get worse until the end of the tribulation. God’s ways are not our ways, and until people love Him and obey His ways, public corruption will exist. Individually there is too much lying, adultery, not loving God, not loving others. God loves everyone, but will only save those who accept His Son, Jesus as Savior, and confess they are a sinner. He simply won’t bless our country with all this going on individually. I’m a sinner, but God’s grace is greater than all my sin.
This is going to make a great book someday.
Joebama and the marxist democrat party need to implode.
These whack jobs are WAY out in anti American woke land.
They’re too stupid to recognize NO real Ametican believe there lies!
I am not going to hold my breath waiting for the Democratic Party to see the truth of these scandals. Apparently lots of persons in that party and the government agencies they control were pretty much aware of this corruption and decided to ignore it. I also don’t expect the mainline media to jump on this since they are all silent partners in this fiasco [by being silent about things like this they become guilty too]. This cover up is amazing in its complexity but do not expect the Dems to admit that their boss and his family are criminals.
“Biden’s World is Collapsing”
Not fast enough!
Ole Joe will probably pass soon from the pressure he will be facing. All the while, despite everything he has done and even said in public, he would be foolish to think that anyone has his back now!
And his loyal son Hunter may just “off” himself instead of being imprisoned for the rest of his life…
Such a waste.
I just want to thank Robert B. Charles not only for this article but for all of his articles they are the best. He always has the best way to help us all understand and learn things that help this Country be better. Thanks for all you do !!!
Biden never was or has been a brain child. I am sure of his guilt but there must be some masterminds to engineer the corruption and of course Obama the great Destroyer is just as corrupt and got rich ruining this country. Obama wont get touched and Biden might get a hand slap and suffer some manufactured embarrassment. Now if it was ole Trumpy it would be an media explosion.
Don’t get all excited. Absolutely nothing will come in this they are Democrats. Democrats can do anything they want there is a two-tiered system of justice in this country they are above all retribution and above all prosecution. Nothing will ever happen the media will not even cover it
So, what will happen to Joe Biden, etal? People will call for his head and nothing will happen. If everything said here comes to pass, Joe Biden might be remembered as a defective, pathetic and hapless leader who did no good, but nothing will happen to him. Being a liar and a crook in politics seems to have become the rights of the politicians, and still nothing will happen.
It’s about GD time! 50 years in public office, honing his skills at robbing the American people of honest and honorable representation as well as Americas wealth and reputation overseas. This disgusting, lying excuse of a human being, let alone patriotic American, has been putting the screws to the United States and her people for decades! That’s BOTH SIDES OF THE ISLE FOLKS!!! If you’re a Democrat that’s offended by what I’m saying, TOUGH, his family has given it to you in the shorts just the same as us! When I was growing up in the 50’s and 60’s, treason brought about the death penalty for a reason. Your crimes affected millions of your fellow citizens and weakened your country around the world! We all know what this filth-bag deserves, enough said!
The House should impeach Biden NOW. Send it to the Senate, they will get enough votes to impeach Biden from the democrats, if for no other reason than to have a black woman be president. Then take care of our business, stop the in fighting in the republican party. Make Trump and DeSantis play nice together, and we can have Trump 4 years, DeSantis 8 years, and get the country straightened out.
Excellent article, RBC. Unfortunately I’m very doubtful that there will be any justice. When was the last time that any honest, unbiased criminal sentences were meted out against the DC crowd, despite a plethora of evidence against them? Every so often a small fry gets a tender wrist slapping. Other than than that…nada, DC criminals just keep riding off into the sunset with their saddlebags full of ill-gotten loot. Nothing changes in that sewer. If this country ever needed divine intervention, it’s now. Evil is running rampant. God help us…please.
Bidens whole family needs to be in prison. And I mean a prison with cells and bars. Not some summer club in Fla.
Frankly I would prefer Marlon Brando for our Godfather. Kyle L.
My eyes tell me differently, it’s the American people whose world is collapsing. This depraved mannequin seems to be doing just fine in his criminal paradise.
Hanging to good for him!
Biden needs to be arrested on espionage charges and removed from office.
he is a mess and should be impeached – biden is an imposter who stole the election from Trump.. that’s the bottom line and the left and media do not want to acknowledge all of it. meanwhile he is taking this country down with him. this is a disgrace can’t anyone do any thing. yeah we can vote but we need to address the back handed way the left does things and gets help from media and other corrupt lawyers, judges etc
No consequences for ruining the country.
We the people are fed up. The corruption is there yet not a damn thing happens. Liberal media covers it up, Democrats create more chaos to distract us, and the once trustworthy FBI has become a joke for comedy routines. Worst of all, people are falling for the deceptions.
ALL THE ARTICLES ALL THE EVIDENCE BUT NOT A F……THING DONE ABOUT IT WE DESERVE WHAT THE DEMORATS DO
Excellent ‘tell it like it IS’article… but American citizens are tired of waiting for the criminals to be indicted and removed from office. Is this EVER going to happen? B-b-b-Biden, Kackles the wh—, the whole sorry mess of them need to GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. NOW.
What? The DOJ got the IRS off Hunters back, appears to be going well.
Newsflash: Joe Biden’s world is NOT collapsing, it is moving along singingly, and the more hysterical and histrionic headlines like the one on this particular article, the better, from Joe & Team’s collective point of view (not that the Prez himself has a POV on much anymore, bless his heart, Doc Jill, I’d say, has her hands full until he expires). Digital currency on schedule for launching? Check. Simultaneously destroying public education and corrupting the morals of today’s schoolchildren and tomorrow’s adults, seducing their leadership? Check, check, and check. Removing (right on schedule) most (I think) American military aircraft from Taiwan? Check. Actively precipitating division and class enmity among ordinary American citizens? Check.
The ones I’ve listed aren’t even the high points in all likelihood. Screaming headlines like the one attached to this article are as annoying as any other kind of clickbait and are aimed squarely at the feeble-minded, with which the conservative movement is every bit as riddled as its counterpart on the left. As such, it gets all the respect it deserves from sober-thinking individuals such as myself, which is zero. Were we to have the meanest chance to overcome the behemoth that confronts us today, sober-mindedness would be the first essential. AMAC’s choosing to serve as the conduit through which such balderdash flows is an indictment of its credentials as a conservative organization.
All good questions at the end, Robert. Too many of us know the truth now to completely hide it. I wonder what new scheme the Democrats will hatch to cover all this? Will sudden deaths occur?The manure pile is getting too big to avoid stepping in it, or smelling it.
Lying Jack*ss Joe is the MOST CROOKED person to ever SERVE and LIVE IN THE WHITE HOUSE! . . . He expanded on what he had learned from Obama!
Amidst all this Biden corruption, and in the light of the release of Durham’s investigation results, I will not be satisfied until ALL corrupt people are imprisoned — administrative personnel and politicians alike.
Yet another “This is the end of Joe Biden and the Democrats” piece. Unfortunately, Biden and the Democrats are in no near-term danger of losing their grip on power.
The FBI has refused to honor the subpoena sent to them from the House Judiciary Committee to supply documentation, that the FBI does admit actually exists, that details Joe Biden directly involved in some criminal activity. The so-called “Plan B” from Comer is now to take the FBI to court and try to get a ruling that would force the FBI to hand over the requested document. This is a long, slow process, that can easily be stretched out by the FBI and the Democrats to well past the 2024 elections. Even Comer admitted that could be the case. At which point, if the Democrats repeat the same election manipulation, that they have run 3 times in a row now, the suit will be quietly dropped by the courts soon after Biden is sworn in for a second term.
As for the whistle blowers, Comer admitted to Maria Bartiromo on Sunday that now all of the 8 or 9 whistle blowers have either mysteriously dropped off the face of the earth or are now tied up in litigation and can’t testify to anything. So the Democrats and the administrative state seem to have been busy removing any threat to Team Biden off the chess board.
The most interesting part of your article today is the last paragraph. The one asking about the Democrat voters themselves. My sense so far is the best we can hope for on that front is that at least some Democrat voters are disgusted enough to simply stay home. Then it will come down to whether the Democrat Party will have manufactured enough ballots ahead of time to still ensure they win 5 of the 6 key swing states to ensure an Electoral College win for the puppet residing in the White House.
Things will stand a chance of improving in this country when enough people decide, in unison, to no longer be doormats for the open corruption that has been playing out before them for years now and stand up for themselves. Until then, we seem unfortunately locked in this downward spiral.
When is someone who is being proven to be so corrupt and criminal in his actions going to be arrested with his son and other family members who have partaken in the family mafia business?? Why should it matter that he is President or was President?? It’s despicable to see people like Hillary Clinton have so many proven criminal actions and yet she is still free as a bird!! It’s depressing to see people like Joe Biden and Barack Obama become so wealthy due to criminal activities and nothing happens!! It’s disheartening to see people like Trump (who is no innocent little boy but still…) be harassed and attacked constantly by Democrats for over 7 years now and just to keep him from running for the Presidency again! And there are so many other Democrats who have been accused of wrong doing when the evidence seems very strong and then – nothing!!! Adam Schiff, Maxine Waters, Al Sharpton, Nancy Pelosi, Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders – there are so many who have questionable actions and activities!!!
As the evidence mounts we continue to see more clearly who is making Joe’s mouth move.
Biden is a liar & a crook. Do you think anything will ever be done about it?
The people keep crying out, “Give us Barabbus!” This is who our Country has chosen. And the innocent and good suffer.
Behold, You desire truth in the inward parts,And in the hidden part You will make me to know wisdom.
Psalm 51:6
The White House and this nation is now a house of cards. The “fall” (and I’m not talking about the season) is coming. If it doesn’t happen at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave, then it will be the country. The choice of which one is up to the Democrats and the dishonorable Biden. The question is, which one will become their highest priority? Will it be their party or their country? Will Biden resign as Nixon did in 1974, or will he be removed from office which Nixon avoided by resigning? Either way, due to this country’s divisions, I now question whether the country can survive given the Democrat’s crimes. Unlike 1974, this time vile politicians had the support and cover from the media. The fact remains, as a consequence, well over half the country no longer trusts its government to abide by the law. My stomach and heart both ache for what the politicians have done to my country; the country that I once served and would have died for while serving in the Navy.
