Hunter Biden’s business partners visited the White House at least 19 times during the Obama administration, according to official White House visitor logs. The New York Post reported those meetings included at least one sit-down between Vice President Joe Biden and then-president of Rosemont Seneca Partners Eric Schwerin.
President Biden has repeatedly denied that he ever spoke with his son Hunter about his business dealings, a denial the White House maintains. But the visitor logs showing he met with Schwerin on Nov. 17, 2010, in addition to emails from Hunter Biden’s laptop, contradict his claim.
The Post reported a July 6, 2010 email from Schwerin to Hunter Biden stated, “Your Dad just called me (about his mortgage) and mentioned he’d be out a lot soon and not really back until Labor Day … He could use some positive news about his future earnings potential.”
The Justice Department is investigating Hunter Biden’s finances, and the White House said it will not interfere.
“The President has never had a conversation with the Department of Justice about any investigations into any member of his family,” White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said.
Schwerin made at least nine trips to the White House for meetings with some of the then-vice president’s senior staff between Oct. 2009 and May 2013. The Post reported the visits happened as Hunter Biden was executing multi-million dollar deals in countries around the world, including China.
“This is additional evidence that Joe Biden lied when he said he never discussed Hunter’s foreign business dealings,” Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) told The Post. “The corruption of Biden Inc. must be exposed.”
The New York Post first reported on the contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop during the 2020 election. Twitter took it down because it said it broke their “hacked materials policy”, and news outlets including NBC, The Washington Post, and CNN reported it was being investigated as Russian disinformation. Organizations like The New York Times have since published stories further verifying The New York Post’s reporting.
