Biden’s younger brother James emerges as a central figure in the family’s big-money deals

President Biden‘s younger brother, James B. Biden, doesn’t appear in the headlines as much as his troubled nephew, the president’s son, Hunter Biden.

A House Republican investigation, however, is poised to expose how James Biden and eight additional family members may have profited off his brother’s powerful positions in government and perhaps put national security in danger by compromising the president.

Court documents and Congressional reports show James Biden wasn’t shy about promoting his brother’s influence, including telling potential business partners in 2019 that Joe Biden “was in the room with him” as he closed in on a lucrative deal.

Seven years younger than Joe Biden, James Biden, 73, never graduated college but has made a successful living with a string of varied business ventures, some of the most lucrative deals secured with Hunter Biden.

The two Biden‘s recently raked in seven-figure payouts from energy firms connected to the Chinese Communist Party, bank records obtained by Congressional Republicans show. The money was wired in 2017 and 2018 to Hunter Biden‘s Owasco law firm and then distributed by Hunter Biden to associates and family members. Hunter Biden gave at least $1.4 million to Lion Hall Group, James Biden’s consulting firm based in Merion Station, Pennsylvania. The president’s daughter-in-law, Hallie Biden, also got a cut of the funds.

It’s not clear what services James, Hunter or Hallie Biden provided for the money, but Sen. Charles Grassley, who has been probing the Biden business deals for years, said the payout was to compensate for work helping the Chinese Communist Party-backed firms “pursue deals and expand its reach in the energy sector.”

When James Biden’s bank questioned the large deposits, his wife, Sara Biden, told the bank it was for assisting Owasco with international clients, according to congressional investigators.

Sara Biden did not respond to an inquiry from The Washington Times and a spokesman for James Biden had no comment.

In addition to big payments from the Chinese firms, James and Sara were provided a $100K shopping spree from Hunter and his business associate, Chinese national Gongwen Dong. The two opened a line of credit that James and Sara used to pay for travel, hotels, restaurants and Apple devices, according to the bank records obtained by lawmakers.

Congressional investigators are delving into the foreign business deals via Treasury Department suspicious activity reports generated by banks. Last week, the Republican leading the effort, House Oversight and Accountability Committee Chairman James Comer of Kentucky, said he’s identified an additional six members of President Biden‘s family “who may have benefited from the Biden family’s businesses that we are investigating, bringing the total number of those involved or benefiting to nine.”

The Left lost control of a school board, so it called in the ACLU and Biden administration

A new investigation from lawyers hired by a school board outside of Philadelphia undermines claims by the American Civil Liberties Union and the Philadelphia media that a GOP-controlled school board created a hostile environment toward gay and transgender students.

The 140-page report, presented at a school board meeting and made public Thursday night, paints a picture of an activist teacher breaking the rules to manipulate students and the media and then becoming a media darling after getting suspended for it. They also reveal that the supposedly anti-gay school administrators were, in fact, aggressive in cracking down on bullying.

AMERICA'S DEADLY DISEASE OF MISTRUST

The story in short: After the voters of Bucks County in 2021 swung the Central Bucks school board from Democratic control to a 6-3 Republican majority, one of the Democratic board members, and one activist teacher who was a labor union vice president, worked with the ACLU, the Biden administration’s Education Department, and the Philadelphia media to paint school leadership and the school board’s policies as harmful to gay and transgender students.

Andrew Burgess was a teacher at Lenape Middle School in Bucks County who became a media celebrity after being suspended. The ACLU filed complaints with the Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights, mostly stemming from Burgess’s battles with the school board. The original charge alleged that school and district administrators didn’t do anything about rampant bullying of gay and transgender students.

Subsequent complaints called Burgess’s dismissal unfair retaliation and alleged the school district refused to readmit into the building students who participated in a walkout in support of Burgess and that the school board’s new policies against teacher political lecturing in the classroom and age-inappropriate books were discriminatory and created a hostile environment.

The Philadelphia Inquirer and other local outlets followed the Central Bucks story closely, almost always taking the Burgess-ACLU line verbatim. The attorneys interviewed Burgess and dozens of others, had access to school district emails and messages, and found a very different story.

When one student told Burgess of “anti-LGBTQ” bullying and discrimination, Burgess discouraged this student from telling the counselors or principal, which is the proper method of handling such cases. Instead, Burgess personally collected all the accusations, created a dossier, and never shared it with the administration. Instead, he sent it to the ACLU.

Discouraging the student from properly reporting the harassment and bullying allowed Burgess to claim the school was turning a blind eye to the incidents. Burgess, the investigation suggests, was politically motivated to paint the school district in a negative light after the Republican takeover in 2021.

Burgess, it seems, wanted to peddle the story that the district’s new rules — requiring sex-segregated sex-ed classes, barring teachers from flying trans flags or other political banners in the classroom, requiring parental permission for student name changes, and barring teaching age-inappropriate material — created a hostile environment. In the process, Burgess broke the rules, hid bullying allegations from the school and district, and manipulated a middle school student into keeping these allegations from the administration.

In fact, Lenape Middle School principal Geanine Saullo emailed Burgess in the same weeks when Burgess was collecting his dossier. “I know earlier in the year [Student 1] was experiencing some negative attention from peers,” Saullo wrote. “I was wondering if you have seen anything lately or if things have improved.”

When Burgess replied that this student was still experiencing bullying and harassment, the principal replied: “Please encourage [Student 1] to bring these things to our attention. I would hate to see suffering in silence.” Burgess wrote back, “Will do and thank you!” But he didn’t. Instead, he kept the dossier of accusations to himself until he could take it to the media and the OCR.

Paraguayan President Visits U.S. Airforce Special Operations Hub Amidst U.S.-Led WEF Coup

Mario Abdo Benítez, the President of Paraguay, visited the United States Air Force Special Operations Forces (SOF) Command Hub in Hurlburt Field, Florida in late March, in the middle of a US-led World Economic Forum election coup that threatens to turn his nation into the next Brazil. According to the US Air Force, Benítez’s visit to the SOF Hub included high-level meetings with the military officers behind “unconventional warfare” and “psychological operations.”

President Mario Abdo Benítez, or “Marito” as he is known in Paraguay, visited the SOF Hub from March 30th to 31st, according to a press release from the US Air Force. The visit came in the midst of his nation’s presidential race, in which the election is slated for April 30th and in which his ruling Colorado Party faces obliteration at the hands of its US deep state and WEF-backed opposition, the Authentic Radical Liberal Party (PLRA), in what is shaping up to be a Brazil-style election coup.

Included in President Abdo Benítez’s visit, according to an Air Force release documenting his trip, were meetings between Benítez and “senior AFSOC members.”

“The United States is a trusted partner to Paraguay with shared threats and concerns posed by challenging geopolitical competition,” the release goes on, before recounting the many facets of special warfare that are handled at Hurlburt Field.

“Hurlburt Field is home to three special operations wings responsible for worldwide operations in support of joint and coalition special operations missions including direct action, unconventional warfare, special reconnaissance, counterterrorism, personnel recovery, psychological operations, and information operations,” reads the release.

Chris Christie claims he has 'a good chance' of landing a knockout blow against former President Trump 'under the brightest of lights'

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is talking up his own ability to land a winning argument and even take down Donald Trump in the race for the White House.

Christie, who earlier this week leveled a 'porn star' attack on Trump while arguing Ron DeSantis wasn't conservative enough, made the comments on a trip to New Hampshire, a state central to his failed 2016 presidential campaign.

Christie, known as a political brawler, got asked whether other members of the Republican field were not 'physical enough' or lacked the 'aggressiveness' to take Trump down, on a day when he led the field in another new poll.

'Look, I know what I'm good at. I know how to articulate an argument. I know how to make it. I know how to land it. And I feel like I have the ideas that people are generally attracted to. So if you have those things, you have a good chance to be able to do it. No guarantees, but a good chance,' he told Fox News.

Christie declined to pick apart other members of the field, which includes former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley, DeSantis, former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchison, and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswami (with former Vice President Mike Pence heading back to Iowa this weekend).

'As to the others, you guys will have to judge the others. I just know who I am, and I think you all know who I am and what I've been able to do before, under the brightest of lights,' he said.

White House: No evacuation plans for all Americans in Sudan

RAMSTEIN AIR BASE, Germany (AP) — The Pentagon has deployed forces and is developing options to assist in the possible evacuation of U.S. Embassy personnel from Sudan, but the White House said Friday there are no plans for now for a broader pullout of the potentially thousands of other Americans from the African country where warring factions are in a violent conflict.

The troop moves by the U.S. military are intended “to ensure that we provide as many options as possible, if we are called on to do something. We haven’t been called on to do anything yet,” Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said at a news conference in Germany. Austin and U.S. Army Gen. Mark Milley, the Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman, held meeting meetings with defense leaders from other countries to discuss additional support for Ukraine.

An estimated 16,000 private U.S. citizens are registered with the U.S. Embassy in Khartoum as being in Sudan. The State Department has cautioned that that figure probably is inaccurate because there is no requirement for Americans to register nor is there a requirement to notify the embassy when they leave.

“It’s absolutely imperative that U.S. citizens in Sudan make their own arrangements to stay safe in these difficult circumstances,” White House National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said in Washington.

EXCLUSIVE: Socialite mom, 45, is arrested in child porn sting at Virginia hotel where she allegedly planned to sexually abuse eight-year-old girl. Now federal judge ex-husband launches court battle to win full custody of their daughters - aged 10 and 12

A federal judge in Virginia is fighting for full custody of his two young daughters after his high society ex-wife was arrested at a hotel where she allegedly planned to sexually assault an eight-year-old girl, DailyMail.com can exclusively reveal.

Eleanor Hunton Hoppe, 45, a member of one of Virginia's most prominent families, was snared in an FBI sting last month after messaging an undercover agent explicit and sickening details about what she wanted to do to the child, according to court filings.

The mother-of-two – who has been charged with child porn and child sex abuse offenses – is also accused of sending the agent a 30-second video and three still images of young minor girls being horrifically sexually abused by men.

Her arrest has stunned communities in Charlottesville, where she lives, and in Richmond where she grew up amid wealth and prestige as a member of a legal powerhouse family who helped found the city's biggest law firm, now known as Hunton, Andrews, Kurth.

She had previously worked in child advocacy and support organizations and was a volunteer at her prestigious local Episcopal church in Charlottesville that is affiliated with the University of Virginia, DailyMail.com can reveal.

Hunton Hoppe is currently locked up in Washington DC and faces life behind bars if convicted of three federal crimes: Distributing child porn, enticement of a minor and attempted transportation of a minor with attempt to engage in sexual activity.

Now DailyMail.com can also reveal her ex-husband, federal judge Joel Hoppe, is fighting for full custody of their daughters aged 10 and 12, citing the shocking allegations against the mom in his legal documents.

The ex spouses had previously agreed to joint physical custody in May 2021 after a messy divorce battle – during which the magistrate judge accused his ex-wife of hunting for sex with other men and women.

From a mansion to prison cell: The shocking fall of Eleanor Hunton Hoppe

Eleanor Hunton Hoppe grew up in a magnificent five bedroom, five bathroom Colonial Revival-style spread from the early 1900s in Westhampton, one of Richmond's most desirable neighborhoods.

She was privately educated at the city's prestigious St Catherine's School – an Episcopal establishment for girls – and went on to obtain a BA in psychology from the University of Virginia.

She can trace her family's links in Virginia back to Eppa Hunton I, who was born in 1789 and was a member of the Virginia House of Delegates.

Eppa Hunton II was a brigadier general in the Confederate Army and later served in both the US House of Representatives and Senate

One of his sons, Eppa Hunton II, brought the family even more prominence. He was a lawyer who rose to become Confederate brigadier general during the American Civil War and later served as a Democrat in the US House of Representatives and then the US Senate.

It was his son, Eppa Hunton III, who co-founded the law firm Munton, Hunton, Williams & Anderson which is now known as Hunton, Andrews, Kurth, and employs more than 900 attorneys in 20 offices.

Hoppe's 75-year-old father used an email address from the firm when he had his daughter's 2019 charge dismissed.

The accused mom boasts of working with several organizations involving young people and child advocacy on her LinkedIn page.

She spent two years with non-profit Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Central Blue Ridge in Charlottesville, a support service helping local young people. The organization told us: 'We are deeply saddened to hear of this report involving an individual who formerly worked with our organization.

'Upon learning of the charges, our organization proactively reached out to law enforcement officials to share Ms. Hoppe's employment history with our organization. The safety and well-being of the children we serve is our highest priority.'

Hoppe also spent a year at non-profit ReadyKids in the city, which offers counseling, family support and early learning opportunities.

She was an 'early learning specialist… and in charge of all early learning playgroups' in three locations according to her LinkedIn biography.

ReadyKids also said it is distraught to hear of the charges.

'As an organization that prioritizes child safety, we can confirm that Ms. Hoppe passed all required background checks, including criminal history and child protective services, and was employed in a program that worked exclusively with groups of parents present with their children.

'We strongly condemn any and all acts of violence against children and know the trauma it can cause. Our hearts and thoughts are with all children that have been affected by these horrible crimes.'

Hoppe also said she worked for two years from 2000 for Virginia's Office of the Commonwealth Attorney as a victim-witness advocate, offering 'resources and referrals to victims of domestic violence, sexual assault and violent crimes'.

Additionally the mom was a formerly a volunteer at St Marks Memorial Church in Charlottesville, which is affiliated with her alma mater.

A 2018 posting on the church's website reveals she was the coordinator for the Fall Kick-Off Picnic, which included 'dessert games for kids, face painting and more!'
