US. Rep. James Comer said Tuesday that President Joe Biden’s home in Wilmington, Delaware, was listed as the beneficiary address for the receipt of two bank wires for payments to his son Hunter Biden from Chinese nationals.
One of the Chinese nationals was Jonathan Li, who developed a business relationship with Hunter Biden while Joe Biden was vice president, the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability said in a news release.
The new allegations come two days before the first hearing in the House’s impeachment inquiry of the president is set to take place.
The committee said it subpoenaed and obtained bank wire transcripts that showed Hunter Biden received a $10,000 wire from Chinese national Wang Xin on July 26, 2019, and a $250,000 wire from Li and Tang Ling on Aug. 2, 2019. The committee said both wires originated in Beijing and Joe Biden’s Wilmington home was listed as the beneficiary address for both wires.
“Bank records don’t lie but President Joe Biden does,” Comer said in the news release. “In 2020, Joe Biden told Americans that his family never received money from China. We’ve already proved that to be a lie earlier this year, and now we know that two wires originating from Beijing listed Joe Biden’s Wilmington home as the beneficiary address when he was running for President of the United States.
“When Joe Biden was vice president, he spoke on the phone and had coffee with Jonathan Li in Beijing, and later wrote a college letter of recommendation for his children.”
