Oh, you wanna talk about clandestine enrichement schemes, do you ? OK. Let's do that. How about
Joe Biden and his whole family living in mansions on big estates, with net worths in the millions, when Biden only had government service jobs that couldn't pay anywhere near those amounts.
You think Hunter is the only one that benefitted from Quid Pro Joe's corruption ? Not hardly. Check out James Biden and his HillStone international scandal, with James going from middle class to multimillionaire during brother Joe's Vice-President years.
Not to be outdone, Joe's other brother, Frank, cashed in big from Joe's Vice presidency, after Joe's visit to Costs Rica, with big $$$ deals connecting support from the highest levels of the Costa Rican government, and Guanacaste Country Club.
“He met with the Costa Rican ministers of education and energy and environment, as well as the president of the country.” according to Peter Schweitzer, in
a piece for the New York Post. Frank's Latin American deals flourished after that.
Note that both Frank and James Biden had no experience with housing construction, country clubs, or real estate in general. All they had was the Joe Biden connection.
Next Joe Biden relative to cash in on Joe's vice presidency >> Howard Krein (Joe's son-in law). After visits to the White House, by Krein et al company executives, StartUp Health, an investment consultancy (which Howard was chief medical officer of) went from “barely up and running” to highly successful in a short time.
Also not to be outdone was Joe Biden's sister, Valerie. She ran his Senate campaigns and his 1988 and 2008 presidential campaigns. As a senior partner in the political messaging firm named Joe Slade White & Company, which had an eighteen-year history with Biden and his campaigns. “The firm received large fees from the Biden campaigns that Valerie was running.
Two and a half million dollars in consulting fees flowed to her firm from Citizens for Biden and Biden For President Inc. during the 2008 presidential bid alone.”
And where did that money come from ? Some of it from low income Biden supporters, sending donations$$ that were supposed to be for Joe's campaign, not Joe Slade White & Company, or sister Valerie.
These, and more examples of corruption and abuse of power in the Democratic Party are detailed in Peter Schweizer’s new book,
Profiles in Corruption: Abuse of Power by America’s Progressive Elite
There’s a long history of politicians using their power to enrich their families, but according to Peter Schweizer,
Joe Biden “emerges as the king of the sweetheart deal, with no less than five family members benefiting from his largesse, favorable access and powerful position, for commercial gain.” These sweetheart deals include foreign partners, and sometimes
taxpayer dollars.
