NEW YORK (77 WABC) — Emails reveal that Joe Biden agreed to pay his son Hunter’s legal fees related to his deal with a Chinese government-controlled company.
Hunter’s assistant Katie Dodge wrote an email to book-keeper Linda Shapero and Biden aide Richard Ruffner. It said Joe Biden agreed to pay more than $800,000 in Hunter’s bills. The emails refute Biden’s repeated claims he was unaware of his son’s overseas business dealings.
The Bidens — Joe and his wife Jill — used funds from the millions the couple made from book deals and speaking engagements after Joe Biden finished his term as VP under President Obama.
An analysis of Joe Biden’s financial records by the DailyMail shows almost $7 million dollars more in income on his tax returns than he did on his government transparency reports. Some of that difference can be accounted for with salaries earned by First Lady Jill Biden and other sums not required on his reports – but still leaves $5.2 million earned by Joe’s company and not listed on his transparency reports.
