As questions loom about the Biden family’s deep connections to the Chinese Communist Party, news comes that the Biden Center for Diplomacy & Global Engagement at the University of Pennsylvania has received $22 million in donations over six years from anonymous Chinese donors.
With just days to go before one of the most critical elections in modern times, requests by the National Legal & Policy Center (NLPC) to the University of Pennsylvania and the US Department of Education to release the names of those donors have been denied.
The NLPC filed a complaint with the Department of Education citing the donations because federal law requires universities to publicly disclose any donations over $250,000. The NLPC said that despite this federal disclosure requirement the Department of Education will not compel the Biden Center to disclose the donor list.
“The University of Pennsylvania and the Penn Biden Center are particularly vulnerable to China government influences due to the large amounts of China donations and contracts,” the complaint reads.
Paul Kamenar, NLPC’s attorney, sounded the alarm in questioning why the University of Pennsylvania isn’t being transparent about the donations and why the Department of Education would let them get away with keeping this information from the American people.
“Why aren’t you releasing this information so we can see who these Chinese sources are and how much money is being funneled to the Biden Center?” Kamenar asked. “You have to scratch your head and say, ‘What’s going on here?’”
According to the financial documents associated with the complaint filed with the Department of Education, money streamed into the university after the Penn-Biden Center opened. In May of 2018, a $14.5 million anonymous donation was received from China.
