BARACK OBAMA, PRESIDENT: You know what I mean? I recommended him to you.
LA JEUNESSE: At the time of purchase in 2016, the Obama-Biden White House donated $4.5 billion to power electric vehicles. Today, President Biden is attempting to make all electric cars fully electric and making the manufacturers dependent upon the cobalt mines that his son sold to the Chinese.
REP. JASMES COMER (R–KY): Hunter Biden is an egregious talking conflict. But I’ve been saying for months that Hunter Biden is a national security threat. Ahis offers further evidence.
LA JEUNESSE – President Biden denies knowing of the son’s involvement in the sale. Hunter received significant profit as Bohai’s 10 percent owner at that time.
