UPDATED: Pictures of Hunter and Joe Biden Meeting Chinese Officials Surface, Revealing Extensive Concealment

Christmas came early for the conservative legal foundation “America First Legal” after the National Archives finally released long sought-after pictures of Joe and Hunter Biden meeting with Chinese officials. The president has long insisted he never facilitated nor had any involvement in his troubled son’s business dealings. Yet, a series of photos taken during Joe Biden’s time as vice president paint a very different story. 

The pictures were taken in 2013 during a government-sponsored trip to Asia, and they show Hunter Biden being introduced to high-level Chinese officials, including President Xi Jinping and then-Vice President

Perhaps Hunter Biden meeting Xi Jinping on a taxpayer-funded trip could be brushed aside as a normal formality while escorting his father. Of course, there’s no reason whatsoever to give the Bidens that benefit of the doubt, and there’s plenty of reason to suspect the introduction was far more nefarious. But what can’t be hand-waved away is that Joe Biden was then pictured meeting with Hunter Biden’s business associates, including Chinese businessman Jonathan Li.

For those unacquainted with Li, he and the Bidens helped arrange the transfer of stealth technology to a blacklisted Chinese military manufacturer. No, that’s not the plot line of a movie. That actually happened, and there has been zero accountability in the aftermath of those revelations. With Joe Biden’s recent pardoning of his son, that’s unlikely to change. 

RedState’s Jennifer Van Laar exposed the aforementioned deal through her original reporting back in 2020. In 2023, Devon Archer, one of Hunter Biden’s business associates, confirmed her reporting surrounding Li and the Bidens while testifying before Congress. These newly released pictures provide the final piece of evidence that the meetings did take place.

Notably, lawyers representing Joe Biden and Barack Obama worked with the National Archives to stop these photos from being released before the 2024 election. That alone would be treated as a major news story if we were talking about a Republican. The size of the cover-up here is immense, spanning former and current presidents along with US federal agencies.

Unfortunately, as is to be expected, mainstream “news” outlets have no interest in digging deeper into what is legitimately the biggest presidential scandal in modern history. You’ve got pictures of a vice president using taxpayer money to introduce his son to Chinese officials, some of which the Bidens would become entangled with professionally, including the reception of large sums of money. Then once Joe Biden became president, he weaponized the National Archives (just as he did against Donald Trump) to stop the release of damaging evidence to protect himself and his party politically. 

Lastly, just as everything was starting to unwind, Joe Biden gave his son a full pardon spanning back to 2012 for any possible crime committed to put the final touch on the cover-up. If that’s not worse than Watergate, I don’t know what is. 

Republicans don’t need to let this go. While legal accountability may be off the table, exposing the rank corruption and criminal activity of the Biden family is an important endeavor. The American people deserve the truth, and the Democratic Party needs to pay a high political price for this.
