President Biden's brother James testified behind closed doors to a House committee today, and because a Biden would never tell a lie he helped distance his brother from the family business that seems to have involved just about everybody except Joe.
But ... but ... but ... Joe Biden "is the family brand"! Joe is the money maker - "THE BIG GUY."
James Biden's opening statement was a direct denial of allegations of corruption and influence peddling involving the person who is now the president:
Matt Viser (@mviser) ~ NEW: In James Biden's opening statement, he claims:
"Joe Biden has never had any involvement or any direct or indirect financial interest in those activities."
"I never asked my brother to take any official action on behalf of me, my business associates, or anyone else."
Miranda Devine (@mirandadevine) ~ Jim Biden: "my intimate knowledge of my brother's personal integrity and character, as well as my own strong ethics." 🤣
James Biden also claimed that he's never relied on his brother:
Miranda Devine (@mirandadevine) ~ Jim Biden: "In every business venture in which I have been involved, I have relied on my own talent, judgment, skill, and personal relationships and never my status as Joe Biden's brother." 🤣
Miranda Devine (@mirandadevine) ~ Ahem. http://politico.com/news/2024/02/18/the-biden-name-how-the-presidents-brother-became-embroiled-in-a-hospital-fiasco-00141868
If it wasn't for Brandon being in politics, James, you'd be a pauper.
Does anybody believe James Biden never relied on his status as Joe "The Big Guy" Biden's brother (other than Democrats who want to believe it)?
If James and Hunter were the ones making all the money in the business and Joe had nothing to do with it and was getting by on a congressional/VP salary, why were they "borrowing" all this money from Joe?
Big Fish (@BigFish3000) ~ Joe Biden claims this was a cash loan repayment. No receipts like Fani Willis.
No receipts. No loan documents. No interest. Simply a payment of $200,000 to "The Big Guy" on the very same day that "The Biden Family Business" received a $200,000 payment from foreign interests. Yeah, we know ... it was a fee for the use of Joe Biden's "brand" (i.e., political powers of persuasion).
Meanwhile, the Dems are saying "it doesn't say 'for bribes' in the memo section so there's no scandal here!"
AND, childish.
