In a scandal that even a panel at the far-left CNN admits is an « ethics problem, » a report now reveals the art dealer working to turn Hunter Biden’s paintings into millions of dollars in sales has been linked to China. The Biden family connections to China have triggered questions in the past already, with Hunter cashing in on a special deal shortly after he traveled there with his father on Air Force Two while Joe Biden was vice president. There were reports from another deal, too, where the « big guy, » identified as Joe Biden, was set to get a 10% cut. The situation is that Hunter Biden has provided innumerable other scandals for his father, including his huge paychecks from Burisma, a Ukrainian company under investigation for corruption, as well as his use of Air Force Two to travel to Mexico for yet another business deal. The White House repeatedly has defended the latest venture, Hunter Biden’s plans to sell paintings for hundreds of thousands of dollars each, even though Abby Phillip of CNN warned, « I’m not an art critic. I don’t know anything about art, but these people do. One Pulitzer-prize winning art critic says that he thinks that Hunter Biden’s art is kind of like a cafe painter. He says, you wouldn’t, unless you were related to the artist, spend more than $1,000 on it. But then another art critic, who actually likes Hunter Biden’s work also says this, ‘Anybody who buys it would be guaranteed instant profit. He’s the president’s son.’ « »Obviously, this is a problem, an ethical problem, of optics and from a practical perspective, » Philip continued. The White House has claimed it can avoid ethics issues by keeping the buyers of Hunter Biden’s paintings secret. Joe Biden has in at least one previous instance, appeared to be moving directly to protect Hunter Biden’s interests. While Joe Biden was vice president, Burisma was funding Hunter Biden’s lifestyle at the rate of nearly a million dollars a year, but was under investigation for corruption.
