Jonathan Turley: Biden Doj also behind the times in pursuing the alleged corruption as a hunter
NEWNow you can listen to Fox News articles!
For years, some of us have written Information on the Operation of Score of Multimilionary Influence of the Biden Family and the refusal of the Department of Justice to charge Hunter Biden with an unregistered foreign agent. Now, years later, the New York Times has found evidence that suggest that the son of the former president was acting as a foreign agent already by the Obama administration, when his father was vice -president.
Last August, the New York Times ran to history Speaking of Hunter Biden looking for help from the government for his client, the Ukrainian Energy Company Bimisma. A recent follow-up history He had new harmful details:
Hunter Biden asked for assistance from the United States government for a potentially profitable energy project in Italy while his father was vice -president, according to the records and interviews just released.
The registers, which the Biden administration had retained for years, indicate that Hunter Biden wrote at least one letter to the Ambassador of the United States in Italy in 2016 in search of assistance for the Gas of Ukrainian Gas Bimisma, where he was a member of the Council …
The State Department has not issued the actual text of the letter.
This is exactly what many of us have written in asking why Hunter Biden has not been accused of being an unregistered foreign agent, like Paul Manafort, Bob Mendez And others were in similar circumstances.
Hunter Biden’s scandalous laptop has been falsely fired as Russian disinformation.
The Foreign Agents Registration Act (Fara) covers anyone who acts “Agent of a foreign principal“Included but not limited to (1) try to influence federal officials or the public on internal or foreign policy or on political or public interests in favor of a foreign country; (2) collection or provision of money and other value things within the United States; or (3) that represent the interests of the main foreigners in front of officials or the agencies of the United States government.
It is swept. Thus is the definition of what a “main foreigner” includes, including “A foreign government, a foreign political party, any person outside the United States (except US citizens who are domiciled in the United States) and any organized entity pursuant to the laws of a foreign country or who had their own place of activity in a foreign country.”
As I wrote previously, Special councilor Robert Mueller He seemed to be charged from gross under the law. He hit a line of Trump Associates to these accusations from Manafort to Michael Flynn to George Papadopoulos in Rick Gates. The Department of Justice used Fara to conduct research in the houses and files of the former Trump Councilor Rudy Giuliani, Republican lawyer Victoria Toensing and others.

However, the Department of Justice and the special consultant David Weiss seemed to bind to the nodes to avoid breaking the wire on Fara even if he discussed Hunter Biden’s work for foreign customers.
The government also resisted the requests for the times and other media. Other from the article above:
The request was initially submitted pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, or Foia, in June 2021. After almost eight months, the State Department had not issued any records and Times sued. About 18 months later, the Department moved to close the case after issuing thousands of record pages, none of which shed light on the raising of Hunter Biden to the United States government.
The Times contested the completeness of the research, noting that the department had not been able to produce reactive records contained in a cache of files connected to a laptop that Mr. Biden had abandoned in a delaware repair workshop. The Department resumed research and periodic productions, but had produced few documents relating to Biden until the week after his father had finished his re -election campaign and approved vice -president Harris for the democratic appointment.
Now we have a copy of A key letter from Hunter Biden This gives us an idea of the trials buried for years:
Last week the State Department released a letter he wrote while his father was vice -president in which he searched assistance from the United States government for the Ukrainian Energy Company Bimisma.
In the Letter of June 2016 previously not published On the Blistor -headed paper at the Ambassador of the United States in Italy, Biden required “Support and Guide” to organize a meeting with an Italian official to resolve regulatory obstacles to the Blimous geothermal energy projects was pursuing in the Tuscany region …
The letter asked for help to organize a meeting between officials of the Bimisma and Enrico Rossi, at the time of the president of the Tuscan regional government, “to introduce geothermal projects led by the Bimisma group, to highlight their social and economic benefits for local communities and develop a common action plan that would lead to a further development of the Tuscany Region”.
How could an official of the Department of Justice, not to mention a special consultant, read that letter and not see the obvious disconnection between the management of the case involving Joe Biden’s son and the others as Manafort?

The letter refers to a journey on which Hunter Biden, as well as his model, used official trips with his father to establish these commercial connections. The letter mentions the meeting with a key ambassador on the Air Force Two while looking for assistance for his client.
The ambassador then sent a follow-up letter saying that he knew the president of Tuscany and identified an official of the Department of Commerce who works in the American Embassy who could help “to see where our interests can overlap”.
It was another example of alleged influence that he passed through his father and works for a foreign customer in making pressure on the government.
During this period, the Department of Justice seemed to be on a trigger for the hair for the accusations of Fara. Yet, when it was Hunter Biden, the entire department seemed to be made up of lawyer Sgt. Schultzes.
Many in the media have attacked those of us who wrote on this corruption that extends to the Obama administration. Many simply insisted on the fact that there were no evidence, while they did not take steps to find out. While the media were unstoppable in the investigation into the accusations of Trump of Russian collusion and commercial impropriety, it took a position largely passive in pursuing this story.

Even the New York Times, which can be attributed to pursuing this information on the Foia, has comparatively made little with the wide evidence of corruption by the bidens in guaranteeing millions through the avenge of influence.
What remains is a scandal on corruption that involves not only what the bidens did, but also what the justice department has not done in this long period. It seems to listen to the advice not for informants, but politicians such as the former senator Claire McCaskill (D-mo.) That “everyone needs to collect” the history of influence.

Of course, Joe Biden In the end he broke his repeated promise not to forgive his son. What was most remarkable, however, was that he forgiven him for any crimes from the section of human beings to the tax evasion, but for a period from 1 January 2014 to 1 December 2024.
This letter explains why such a large and extensive forgiveness was needed. Yet, in the end, the greatest accusation of this scandal was of the same Department of Justice.
