A new layer of intrigue has emerged in the saga of Hunter Biden, revealing his ties to a $60 million fraud investigation that seems as tangled as a Christmas light in July. While Hunter’s partners at Burnham Asset Management have found themselves in a world of legal trouble, Hunter’s maneuvering suggests he’s got a remarkable gift for dodging the spotlight. Bank records and corporate documents now link him to the fraudulent activities while he simultaneously claims he was just a passive observer. This might be a miracle worthy of the next presidential campaign poster.
It appears that when his business partners got caught in a million-dollar securities fraud scheme, Hunter Biden swiftly fashioned himself a shield of plausible deniability. He’s been rather adroit at claiming that his association with Burnham was more about design than substance. When asked about his involvement during his father’s impeachment proceedings, he insisted that any plans for partnership were as empty as a politician’s promise on the campaign trail. Interestingly, his dismissal of his ties to the shady dealings might just be the same strategy that he and his father have been using all along: just keep moving and hope no one asks too many questions.

Now, thanks to a pardon courtesy of former President Joe Biden, Hunter’s legal troubles seem to have been erased with a magic wand. Yet, members of Congress aren’t ready to let Hunter off easily. House Republicans are still digging, chasing down what appears to be a Biden family influence-peddling operation that critics claim has been hiding in plain sight. The shadows of Congress may keep on probing, even with former President Biden providing cover for his son.
Documentation from the Securities and Exchange Commission and FBI stretch back to 2016, leaving the impression that the younger Biden was, in fact, more involved in the sus’ dealings than he would like the public to believe. Evidence suggests he was the Vice Chairman of Burnham, allegedly promised a cushy $800,000 annual salary, and even signed employment agreements that tie him to the very heart of the fraud scheme. One would imagine even the most seasoned criminal would take a page from the Biden handbook and learn to wear many hats without being seen.
The combination of Hunter Biden’s shared bank account with one of his former associates and its involvement in dubious transactions raises eyebrows and questions alike. Independent investigators have noted the money flow closely parallels known patterns of the Biden name being leveraged for financial gain. The sheer frequency of the name popping up in questionable activities might prompt the average person to think it’s less about coincidence and more about calculated opportunity.
With all the evidence collected, one must wonder if Hunter’s clever losings of any culpability will hold up under scrutiny. As more details emerge, even some lawmakers believe that Hunter Biden may find it even trickier to keep his act together. Particularly after the sweeping pardons have taken the teeth out of his defenses. With one senator suggesting that because of the pardon, Hunter can’t plead the Fifth to avoid revealing uncomfortable truths, it might turn out that the once-comfortable shield is beginning to crack. Who knew the Biden family drama could rival any good political thriller, with suspense, betrayal, and plenty of plot twists?
