The FBI and IRS agents have been investigating an interesting case involving a diamond that Hunter Biden received as a gift from a wealthy Chinese business associate in 2017. The investigation into Hunter Biden’s business dealings revealed conflicting answers about the value and whereabouts of the jewel. It seems that Biden did not disclose the diamond as income when he filed his taxes in 2017, which raises questions about his financial transparency.

This diamond exchange is just one of many questionable transactions that caught the attention of law enforcement during the years-long investigation into Hunter Biden’s taxes and businesses. The newly released documents shed light on how closely investigators scrutinized the Biden family’s ties to the Chinese business associate, who has mysteriously disappeared in China.
It appears that Hunter Biden had a close relationship with the Chinese energy company CEFC and its chairman, Ye Jianming. Emails and other documents show that Biden and several other business partners were helping CEFC identify investment opportunities around the world, including deals in the United States. However, the investigation revealed conflicting accounts of what Hunter Biden did with the diamond.
According to one witness, Hunter Biden claimed to have given the diamond to one of his associates. However, other witnesses contradicted this claim and stated that neither they nor Gilliar received the diamond. In fact, one former business partner involved in the Chinese dealings told the FBI that he “witnessed a large diamond gemstone given as a gift to Hunter Biden by Ye.” This contradicts Hunter Biden’s claim that the diamond was sent to his hotel room as a gesture unrelated to business.
The investigation also revealed concerns about payments made to Hunter and James Biden, as they wanted to be compensated for their assistance to CEFC. Payments from CEFC were deemed improper due to its close affiliation with the Chinese government. It seems that the Miami meeting where the diamond was given also involved discussions about structuring payments to the Bidens now that Joe Biden was out of office.
It is clear that the diamond and the larger investigation into Hunter Biden’s business dealings raise serious questions about his financial practices and potential conflicts of interest. The investigation into this diamond gift paints a troubling picture of the Biden family’s ties to foreign business associates and the potential influence they may have had. These revelations should not be overlooked and warrant further investigation into the Biden family’s financial dealings.
