America First Legal on X
CV NEWS FEED // Resurfaced photos show outgoing President Joe Biden and his son Hunter meeting with autocratic Chinese President Xi Jinping and other Chinese Communist Party (CCP) officials in Beijing.
The pictures were taken in December 2013, when Biden was serving as vice president of the United States.
FOX News reported that the pictures which “appear to show” the Bidens speaking to Xi “and then-Vice President Li Yuanchao” bring “further scrutiny to” Biden’s “claim he ‘never’ discussed business with his son.”
“Other photos show Joe Biden posing with Hunter’s business associates from BHR Partners, including Jonathan Li and Ming Xue,” FOX added.
The New York Post reported that Hunter Biden “held a 10% stake in BHR through at least part of his dad’s presidency.”
As FOX noted, the conservative legal group America First Legal (AFL) obtained the pictures “through litigation against” the Biden administration’s National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). NARA is an independent agency of the federal government.
On X (formerly Twitter), AFL called the photographs “incredibly damning.”
AFL said in a statement shortly before Christmas: “These images shed light on the connections between then-Vice President Biden, Hunter and his Chinese business associates, and Chinese government officials.”
On December 23, the day AFL publicly released the pictures, the group wrote on X: “Following the Presidential Records Act, NARA had planned to release these photographs on October 23, 2024 — thirteen days before Election Day.”
However, “Lawyers and representatives for President Biden and President Obama delayed NARA’s release of these photos — as they did with other critical records — until after Election Day,” AFL pointed out in a subsequent post.
AFL founder Stephen Miller is a well-known conservative political advisor who served as Senior Advisor to the President during Donald Trump’s entire first term.
When Trump takes office for his second term on January 20, Miller is slated to serve concurrently as both United States Homeland Security Advisor and White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy.
The resurfaced photos have gone viral just weeks after the elder Biden controversially pardoned his son, who was convicted on federal tax evasion and gun charges. Polling found only 22% of Americans approved of the pardon, and Biden has previously, on multiple occasions, stated that he would not pardon the younger Biden.
FOX Business’ Charles Gasparino wrote: “The corruption and incompetence of [Biden] and [Harris] will continue to leak piecemeal before [Trump] takes over and then it will be [a] deluge.”
