    FYI I clicked the link and read the article (if you want to call it that) SO YOU DONT HAVE TO.

    What Hunter did here is worked with a defense contractor in California who himself was working on a project to protect against killer diseases around the world that could be weaponized.

    So no Hunter wasn’t himself having any say so in defensive or offensive bio weapon research. He knows a guy who knows a guy who was working on a valuable project and it actually is a good thing to do since as we have all seen… pandemics affect everyone and so I too support American defense organizations studying these diseases so we can protect ourselves from them.

    But crediting Hunters role here in having an affect on the Ukraine war based on the false notion that bio labs have anything to do with it would be like saying since my friend is friends with one of the Seal Team 6 guys that I myself was responsible for bringing down Osama Bin Laden.

    So good for Hunter. Bad for the NYPost who doesn’t really want people to actually read their articles.

    So.... since I am clearly not on your intellectual level, explain this to me...

    When Russia initially went into the Ukraine, it had nothing to do with biolabs. As a matter of fact, their initial demands for ending the war did not mention biolabs at all.

    Now... when folks like Carlson and others start spewing about biolabs, the Russian propaganda machine strikes.

    Also, why are these particular emails just now being discovered?

    Prosecutors Advance Tax Probe of Hunter Biden
    Grand jury heard witness in February about past drug use, spending habits of president’s son

    A federal tax investigation into Hunter Biden is gaining momentum as prosecutors gather information from several of his associates about the sources of his foreign income, including from Ukraine, and examine President Biden’s son’s relationship with a company that handled some of his finances, according to people familiar with the matter.

    In recent weeks, prosecutors from the U.S. attorney’s office in Delaware have sought information and grand-jury testimony about the money Mr. Biden received several years ago from Ukrainian natural-gas company Burisma Holdings Ltd., and how he used that money to pay some obligations, one of those people said.

    Last month, prosecutors also extensively questioned at least one other associate of Hunter Biden about Mr. Biden’s drug and alcohol use, spending habits and state of mind in 2018, another person said, suggesting prosecutors are exploring whether such activity would present a defense against a potential criminal tax case.

    Prosecutors often seek to get such testimony on the record to secure it before the defense gets a chance to present it more favorably at trial. “It doesn’t necessarily mean an indictment is imminent, but it is indicative of trying to lock in testimony with an eye towards a potential trial someday,” said former federal tax prosecutor Matt Mueller, of the law firm Fogarty Mueller Harris, who isn’t involved in the investigation.

    In the past year, prosecutors have called several of Mr. Biden’s associates and other witnesses to testify before the grand jury as part of their wide-ranging investigation into Mr. Biden’s business dealings. They are examining whether he violated tax or other laws, including those governing lobbying for foreign governments, through his business relationships in Ukraine, China, Kazakhstan and elsewhere, some of the people said.

    Prosecutors have focused in particular, those people said, on the payments from Burisma, which first flowed to a company called Rosemont Seneca Bohai LLC before going on to Mr. Biden. Between 2014 and 2019, Hunter Biden held a Burisma board seat for which he was paid around $50,000 a month.

    Are you this obsessed with Trump's children? You know, the ones that actually held government and advisory positions and routinely speak at GOP rallies.

    Hunter Biden’s $142K Fisker sports car scrutinized in tax probe: report

    Prosecutors leading the Hunter Biden tax probe are investigating his purchase of a $142,000 plug-in hybrid sports car whose manufacturer defaulted on a massive Obama administration loan touted by his father, according to a report Monday.

    Some of the testimony presented to a Delaware grand jury also appears to be intended to prevent the first son from mounting a defense based on his admittedly sordid history of drug and alcohol abuse, the Wall Street Journal said.

    That testimony came from a former girlfriend, Zoe Kestan, 28, who last month testified about shacking up with Biden, 52, in swanky hotels in New York City and Los Angeles and making lavish purchases during 2018, a source familiar with the matter told The Post.
