Hunter Biden Wanted Office at Biden's Penn Center Office, Where The Classified Documents Were " " " Stored " " "

Recall that when Hunter Biden rented the luxe offices for his Chinese-intelligence-services-partnered "business" at the Swedish Embassy, he asked for keys for Joe Biden so that he could come and go from the office.

Hunter Biden requested in 2017 that keys be made for his new "office mates," listing his father, President-elect Joe Biden, Jill Biden and his uncle, Jim Biden, for space he planned to share with an "emissary" for a chairman of a Chinese energy company, according to an email obtained by Fox News.

The Sept. 20, 2017 email, obtained by Fox News, shows Hunter requesting keys for Joe and Jill Biden, along with his uncle, Jim Biden, to the general manager, Cecilia Browning, at the House of Sweden -- a building in Washington, D.C., which contains multiple office suites, as well as a number of embassies.

"[P]lease have keys made available for new office mates: Joe Biden, Jill Biden, Jim Biden," said the email, with the subject "507."

The email was first reported on by The Daily Caller.

In the email, Hunter Biden also requests keys for Gongwen Dong, whom he describes as an "emissary" for Chairman Ye Jianming -- the chairman of CEFC Chinese Energy Co.

"I would like the office sign to reflect the following," he continued, requesting "The Biden Foundation" and "Hudson West (CEFC US)."

"The Biden Foundation"? Wasn't Biden's grift at Penn also a Biden "foundation" type grifter operation?

...

Hunter Biden also provides Joe and Jim Biden's personal cell phone numbers, according to the email, and urges one of the building staff to "call them at her convenience if she insists."

...

House of Sweden confirmed to Fox News that Hunter Biden's company, Rosemont Seneca, did, in fact, rent office space during that time period. However, they declined to share further information.

Joe Biden has repeatedly denied being involved with his son's business dealings.

Hunter Biden's business associations with Chairman Ye Jianming, Gongwen Dong, and other Chinese nationals, according to the Senate Homeland Security and Finance committees, "resulted in millions of dollars in questionable transactions."

The committees also found, as part of their investigation into the younger Biden's foreign business dealings, that he opened a bank account with Dong which financed a $100,000 global spending spree with his uncle, Jim Biden, and Jim Biden's wife, Sara.

But remember, "The Big Guy" wasn't a partner in this "business" and never spoke to Hunter about his foreign deals with gangsters and dictators.

It turns out that just as "Hunty" was keeping an office for Joe Biden at the House of Sweden, he also wanted his own office at Penn Center -- where the classified documents were kept in a folder called "PERSONAL" in a closet.

Also known as a "Scranton SCIF."

Hunter Biden tried to secure an office at his father Joe Biden's think tank, where the president kept classified documents, emails from the first son's abandoned laptop show.

Joe Biden's talent agent, Craig Gering, emailed Hunter Biden in April 2016 to discuss the vice president's plans for the following year, including the establishment of the Penn Biden Center, a Washington, D.C., think tank affiliated with the University of Pennsylvania. Gering wrote that the university's D.C. office "will be expanded to house a DC office for VP Biden (and Mike, Hunter, and Steve?)," an apparent reference to future Penn Biden Center officials Michael Carpenter and Steve Ricchetti.

Hunter Biden said he hoped the plan would come to fruition.

"That's the way I would like it to see it shake out," he said in an April 25, 2016, response to Gering. "BUT please keep this very confidential between us because nothing has been set in stone."

It is unclear whether the plan shook out as Hunter Biden hoped it would. But the exchange raises questions in light of growing concerns about the discovery of classified documents at the Penn Biden Center and Biden's home in Wilmington, Del. Biden's lawyers discovered a trove of documents about Iran, the United Kingdom, and Ukraine at the office. Republicans have expressed concerns about Hunter Biden's potential access to the records, both because of his erratic behavior during that time period and his foreign business dealings with Ukraine and China.

Gering, the agent for Joe Biden, did not respond to requests for comment.
...

Biden smoked crack at another Washington office he shared with his father and Chinese associates, according to emails and press reports.

The White House and Biden's lawyers did not respond to requests for comment.

Below, Michael Shellenberger attempts to inform the Corrupt Propaganda Corporate Media that Hunty's laptop isn't about his crack and whore addiction: It's about his father's use of the government to attack his critics and rig elections.

Hunter Biden's attorneys yesterday urged the Justice Department to investigate the whistleblower who gave his laptop to the FBI without providing *any* new evidence suggesting criminal activity.

President @JoeBiden must reject his son's chilling demands.

public.substack.com Hunter Biden Demands Criminal Investigation Of Laptop Whistleblower President Joe Biden must reject the call by his son's attorneys for a Justice Department investigation of his political enemies

Hunter's attorneys demanded a criminal investigation of the computer repair store owner who gave the laptop to the FBI in December 2019, and of Biden's political enemies, including Rudy Giuliani, a former President Donald Trump advisor, who gave the laptop to the New York Post.

"Mr. [John Paul] Mac Isaac's intentional, reckless, and likely unlawful conduct allowed for hundreds of gigabytes of Mr. Biden's personal data, without any discretion, to be circulated around the Internet," said Hunter Biden's attorney.

But there is good evidence that computer store owner Mac Isaac followed the law. Since October 2020, a contract signed by Hunter Biden with Mac Isaac has been on the New York Post website.

Meanwhile, Hunter Biden's attorneys presented no evidence to the contrary.

Many still do not understand why this is an important story. They think the laptop is simply about Hunter smoking crack, having sex with prostitutes, sexually exploiting his employees, and selling access to his father, President Joe Biden, to Chinese and Ukrainian businessmen.

But Hunter Biden's laptop may matter less for the crimes it revealed than for the potential crimes that may have ensued.

No single fact summarizes the real issue better than this one: the FBI took the laptop from Mac Isaac and six months later warned Facebook and Twitter executives that "Russians would release disinformation" about Hunter Biden just before the 2020 election

1. TWITTER FILES: PART 7

The FBI & the Hunter Biden Laptop

How the FBI & intelligence community discredited factual information about Hunter Biden's foreign business dealings both after and *before* The New York Post revealed the contents of his laptop on October 14, 2020

It is possible that the FBI agents who warned Twitter and Facebook executives of a coming Russian "hack and leak" operation relating to Hunter Biden did not know that other FBI agents had the laptop, and were strictly "compartmentalized."

But it could also be that senior FBI officials, including the top agency officials, did, in fact, know that the laptop was real. Former top CIA media analyst Martin Gurri said, "I don't think there's any other possibility.... They knew about the laptop or must have known. And why did they say it was coming in October? They were seeding the ground to say, 'You shouldn't cover that.' It was such a perversion of the truth."

What makes the episode even more suspicious is that when the New York Post published wholly accurate information from Hunter Biden's laptop on October 14, 2020, the FBI's former counsel-turned-Twitter deputy counsel, Jim Baker, urged Twitter executives to censor The NY Post story

Five days later, 50+ former intelligence community leaders claimed that laptop emails had "all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation," but they didn't. In fact, if there were "classic earmarks," they were that the emails authentically belonged to Hunter Biden.

Proof of that comes from the fact that Twitter's own internal Head of Trust and Safety, Yoel Roth, and his team concluded the emails appeared authentic, in part based on the contract, with Hunter Biden's signature, and the FBI subpoena to Mac Isaac.

34. On Oct 14, shortly after @NYPost publishes its Hunter Biden laptop story, Roth says, "it isn't clearly violative of our Hacked Materials Policy, nor is it clearly in violation of anything else," but adds, "this feels a lot like a somewhat subtle leak operation."

The potentially coordinated effort to discredit the Hunter Biden laptop may represent election interference and the politicization of the FBI, an extremely dangerous situation that all Americans, no matter their politics, should fear.

At best, Hunter Biden's tactics are merely intended to intimidate Mac Isaac, who brought the laptop to light. At worst, they are a continued part of an ongoing "influence operation" effort to change the subject away from him, the Biden family business dealings, and the FBI.

It is possible but highly unlikely that President Joe Biden and his advisors did not know about, or disapproved of, yesterday’s letters from Hunter Biden's attorneys.

Either way, the president should reject the demand by his son that DoJ be wielded, at best, as a way to punish whistleblowers and, at worst, as a fishing expedition aimed at distracting attention from issues of national importance, including investigating the FBI.
