Former Biden Crime Family Associate: Biden Told Hunter's Chinese and Russian "Business" Partners, "Be Good To My Boy"

You know what I mean by "Be good to my boy," right?

Newsmax:

The transcript of a House impeachment inquiry interview with a jailed former business associate of Hunter Biden sheds light on the Biden family's alleged foreign influence-peddling operation, including the "Biden lift" that tied access to now-President Joe Biden.
Jason Galanis' transcribed Feb. 23 interview under oath exposes how the Biden family allegedly capitalized on then-Vice President Biden's high office with the "goal" of raking in "billions, not millions," including the now-famous incident of Joe Biden telling Russian business clients to "be good to my boy."
"Our goal -- that is, Hunter Biden, Devon Archer, and myself -- was to make billions, not millions," Galanis said in his opening statement to the House Oversight, Judiciary, and Ways and Means impeachment inquiry investigators, according to the transcript obtained Monday by Newsmax.
As multiple business associates have stated publicly and privately for years, the entire value add of Hunter Biden was his family name and his access to his father, which Galanis called the "Biden lift." The transactions under investigation, as Galanis testified, tie foreign influence peddling by the Bidens to business with Russia, China, and former Soviet Union nation Kazakhstan.
Access to Joe Biden came with an $18 million business transaction but the ties to China and Biden was at the heart deal, according to Galanis.
"The point was less the money and more the Chinese participation," Galanis told investigators in the interview (page 115 of the transcript). "The exchange, the quid pro quo, if you would, was if they invest in us, our financial platform gets bigger, more solidified. They get the benefit of Vice President Biden when he exits office to sit on their board. Both parties get something in the exchange. Now that was what was intended."
Along with the influence-peddling allegations, Galanis testified Hunter Biden called his father and used his father to close deals with the Chinese and Russians, evidence the impeachment inquiry can use to pin knowledge of his son's business dealings on the sitting president.
President Biden has long denied knowledge of what business his son was conducting, and the White House still calls the impeachment baseless and the allegations of the president's ties to Hunter Biden to be a conspiracy theory.
"I was present when Hunter called his father on a cellphone and put the call on speaker," Galanis said in his opening statement, noting Rosemont Seneca business ties to the wife of the late former Moscow mayor, according to the transcript. "Present for the call were Yelena Baturina, an investor in Rosemont projects; her husband Yuri, and the former mayor of Moscow; and Devon Archer."
Galanis detailed a May 4, 2014, call between Hunter Biden and then-Vice President Joe Biden, giving an example of the knowledge of the foreign influence peddling.
"We were told to go to an area of the restaurant to gather because Hunter was going to call his father," Galanis said. "Hunter called his father, said, 'Hello,' and 'Hold on, Pops,' then put the call on speaker phone and said, 'I'm here with our friends I told you were coming to town, and we wanted to say hello.'
"The vice president said, 'hello,' and some pleasantries, 'Hope you had safe travels,' and seemed like he wanted to bring the call to an end by saying, 'OK you be good to my boy.'
"Hunter responded by saying, 'Everything is good, and we're moving ahead.'"
The call "stunned" Galanis, showing how quickly Hunter Biden can get his father on the phone with foreign business operations.

And I'm sure this is no big deal and totally routine but Hunter Biden met with "the f***ing spy chief in China," as Hunter Biden called him.

This according to Jim Biden.

The meeting with Patrick Ho isn't new news but some of these details are new:

In a congressional deposition last month, Jim Biden said he accompanied Hunter Biden to Hong Kong in September 2017 to meet with Patrick Ho, an executive with Chinese energy conglomerate CEFC China Energy. Weeks earlier, CEFC China Energy paid Hunter and Jim Biden $5 million as part of a joint venture to find investments for the Chinese firm.
The Biden family's arrangement with CEFC China Energy has stoked national security concerns because of the Chinese firm's links to Chinese military intelligence. Middlemen for CEFC China Energy approached Hunter Biden in 2015, when his father was vice president, about potential business deals.
According to Jim Biden, he and Hunter Biden had a "pleasant" lunch in Hong Kong with Ho, who also served as head of the China Energy Fund Committee, a think tank funded by CEFC China Energy. At the end of the meeting, Ho asked to meet alone with Hunter Biden, according to Uncle Jim.
"Ho said, 'Can I borrow Hunter for, you know, a half-hour? We're going to go in the next room,'" said Jim Biden, who claimed ignorance about what his nephew discussed behind closed doors.
Biden's testimony is likely to raise questions about Hunter's previously unknown interaction with a man he has described as "the f--ing spy chief of China." Hunter Biden made that remark about Ho in an audio recording dated May 11, 2018.
Just two months after Hunter Biden's secret conclave with Ho, federal prosecutors in New York indicted Ho on charges that he offered bribes to African officials to obtain oil rights for CEFC China Energy during a meeting at the UN General Assembly in 2014.

Ho was bribing African officials to get energy deals, but there's no way he would ever bribe American officials.

🤔 that's odd. Why would the FBI do that? pic.twitter.com/aS5lH6TtV0

For me, the most shocking thing about the Trump era was learning just how cheaply these assholes can be bought.

John Bolton went for ten grand. I am just a W2 worker with a decent salary, but *I* - a fuckin' schlub - could afford to buy John Bolton. I know he's a whore rather than a physical product and so can sell it over and over again, but he was out there peddling himself for the political equivalent of a ham sandwich.

Learning just how cheap so many of these whores are filled me with contempt that has not yet faded. If you're going to sell out your country - and your soul - for filthy lucre, at least have enough self-respect to get a lot for it.

They're all ugly, syphilis-infested streetwalkers.

80 Even if Trump didn't have any control of his delegates if he was disqualified from running I don't see them going for Haley. I see Ron DeSantis as the main benefactor in that case.

I do think, if I'm going to be brutally honest, that it's not about the money for people like Bolton. The cash is purely symbolic. They just want to know, and let the Right People know that they know, that they're on the right team.

It's more about socializing than getting rich for them.

Any 'head to head' polling you see... wipe your butt cheeks with, then flush. Then subtract 8% from Biden's numbers for RFK Jr.
