In the final days of the Obama presidency, trusted aide Valerie Jarrett made a boast that has aged like spoiled milk.

“The president prides himself on the fact that his administration hasn’t had a scandal and he hasn’t done something to embarrass himself,” Jarrett declared on national television.

Ironically, the president that Jarrett would later to go work for – Joe Biden – has revealed a jaw-dropping pattern of secret emails with fake account names, weaponized the U.S. Department of Justice against political foes, and entanglement with tens of millions of dollars in foreign money and other ethical conflicts.

The steady stream of tawdry revelations from Biden’s vice presidential years makes clear it wasn’t just Hillary Clinton and her husband that sought to become richer through the Obama years. When elected vice president, earned roughly $230,000 a year. By the time he left the Blair House, Forbes and others estimated his current net worth as $9 million.

The probe of Hunter Biden’s foreign exploits has exposed hard evidence of some complicity by his father and prompted talks of impeachment. News reports say Hunter Biden put his father on speakerphone during business meetings about 20 times," although his supporters such as Rep. Dan Goldman, (D-N.Y.) told reporters that "they never once spoke about any business dealings.”

The new evidence and contradictory statements from Biden about his tenure as Vice President has created a new question for congressional investigators.

What did Barack Obama know and when did he know it?

“I think that one question I have is, I wonder what President Obama knew about his vice president's corrupt business schemes with his son,” House Oversight and Accountability Committee Chairman James Comer told Just the News last week.
