THREAD: The Hunter Becomes The Hunted: Joe Biden, his son Hunter and China (1/20)

Dec 4, 2013: Then Vice President Joe Biden arrives in Beijing, China aboard Air Force 2. Accompanying him: his son Hunter Biden
2/ Ten days after their return, Hunter Biden's small investment firm received $1.5 Billion from the Chinese Government.

It was a deal that no one else ever had in China. Not Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, Deutsche Bank or UBS.
3/ Joe Biden, during his time as Vice President under Barack Obama, was the United States point-person on China.

Then, as now, Joe Biden has claimed a "rising China is an incredibly positive development not only for China, but the United States and the rest of the world"
4/ Ukraine 2014: The Ukrainian government fell. Obama appointed Joe Biden as America's point man for the troubled country. Weeks later, Hunter Biden was hired by a corrupt Ukrainian energy company called Burisma.

Burisma paid Hunter Biden $1 Million a year.
5/ Hunter would go on to admit that he probably would not have been hired to the board for Burisma had his last name not been Biden, seeing as how he had zero experience in the energy field or knew anything about the country of Ukraine.
6/ Getting back to China, in order to do business there, relationships are very important. Especially with the Chinese Government.

Because of his father, Hunter Biden was able to meet with Chinese officials at the highest levels of power.

He had little background in China.
7/ Hunter Biden was able to meet with the most powerful finance officials and top executives from China's Social Security and Sovereign Wealth funds as well as China's most powerful Banks.
8/ Just like Ukraine and Burisma, with little experience in either Chinese business or investing, Hunter's Chinese government business partners appointed him to the board of their new private investment fund called Bohai Harvest, giving him 10% Equity Stake in the company.
9/ Hunter's new firm enjoyed a unique status in China operating through the Shanghai Free Trade Zone. No other investment fund in the world enjoyed such privilege. Not UBS, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley...no one.
10/ Further, Hunter's new firm, Bohai Harvest would begin making lucrative business deals around the world that would ultimately serve the Strategic Interests of the Chinese Military.
11/ In 2015, Hunter's Bohai Harvest would join forces with Chinese Military contractor AVIC to buy a US parts manufacturer for duel-use products: commercial and military.

NOTE: AVIC was notorious for stealing US Military technologies for their own fighter jets and drones.
12/ This deal required approval from the highest levels of the US Government.

The Obama administration, indeed, approved the deal.
13/ Hunter Biden's firm would also invest in a Military Surveillance technology company so the Chinese government could monitor and control its citizens and others.

The company was called "Face++"
14/ In December 2014, Hunter Biden's firm became an anchor investor in China General Nuclear (CGN).

CGN was wholly own by the Chinese Government, but happily for Hunter Biden, it was selling off a minority stake exclusively to Hunter Biden's firm.
15/ FUN FACT: At the time China General Nuclear was becoming a lucrative investment deal for Hunter Biden, CGN was under investigation by the FBI for stealing US Nuclear secrets.

CGN was indeed later charged by the DOJ for stealing nuclear secrets from the United States.
16/ REMINDER: While Hunter Biden was looking for even more commercial deals with the Chinese, the Chinese Government was hacking major US Government websites and databases, including the Office of Personnel Management, breaching the records of as many as four million people.
17/ Another of Biden's businesses, Rosemont Realty, cut an eye-popping multi-Billion dollar deal with a Chinese investment firm called Gemini, who had close ties with the Chinese Military.

Gemini bought a 75% stake in Hunter Biden's Rosemont Realty company for $3 Billion.
18/ Remember: Hunter Biden had little if no experience as an investor or in commercial real estate.

These deals occurred AFTER his father, Joe Biden, was made point person for China by then President Barack Obama.
19/ How much money did the Biden's make from these deals?

Did these deals have dangerous consequences for the security of the United States?
20/
