After Russia Sanctions Biden, Trump Says “Conflict Of Interest” May Be Revealed

On Tuesday Russia imposed sanctions on President Joe Biden, White House press secretary Jen Psaki, Secretary of State Antony Blinken, and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, as retaliation for sweeping economic sanctions from the Biden administration targeting Russian entities over the invasion of Ukraine.

“This step, taken as a counter-reaction, was an inevitable consequence of the extremely Russophobic course taken by the current US Administration, which, in a desperate attempt to maintain American hegemony, has relied, discarding all decency, on the frontal containment of Russia,” said Russia’s Foreign Ministry in a statement.

In addition to those sanctioned above are:

• Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley
• White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan
• CIA Director Bill Burns
• Deputy national security adviser Daleep Singh
• USAID Director Samantha Power
• Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton
• Deputy Treasury Secretary Adewale Adeyemo
• Export-Import Bank Chairman Reta Jo Lewis
• Hunter Biden

“In the near future, new announcements will follow to expand the sanctions list by including top US officials, military officials, lawmakers, businessmen, experts, and media people who are “Russophobic” or contribute to inciting hatred towards Russia and the introduction of restrictive measures,” said Russia’s Foreign Ministry in a statement.

On Tuesday, after the sanctions were announced, former President Donald Trump released a statement:

“Russia just sanctioned Joe Biden. While that is a terrible thing, in so many ways, perhaps it will now be explained why the Biden family received 3.5 million dollars from the very wealthy former Mayor of Moscow’s wife. During our Presidential Debate, “moderator” Chris Wallace, then of Fox, would not let me ask that question. He said it was inappropriate. Perhaps that’s why Biden has been so “slow on the draw” with Russia. This is a really bad conflict of interest that will, perhaps now, be fully and finally revealed,” said Trump.

Remember the Hunter Biden report that was seemingly swept under a rug somewhere? Perhaps the Hunter Biden Burisma report by U.S. Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs is in part what the former president is referring to.

PAGE 3 – On April 16, 2014, Vice President Biden met with his son’s business partner, Devon Archer, at the White House. Five days later, Vice President Biden visited Ukraine, and he soon after was described in the press as the “public face of the administration’s handling of Ukraine.”

The day after his visit, on April 22, Archer joined the board of Burisma. Six days later, on April 28, British officials seized $23 million from the London bank accounts of Burisma’s owner, Mykola Zlochevsky. Fourteen days later, on May 12, Hunter Biden joined the board of Burisma, and over the course of the next several years, Hunter Biden and Devon Archer were paid millions of dollars from a corrupt Ukrainian oligarch for their participation on the board.

PAGE 5– Hunter Biden received a $3.5 million wire transfer from Elena Baturina, the wife of the former mayor of Moscow.

PAGE 6– Hunter Biden paid nonresident women who were nationals of Russia or other Eastern European countries and who appear to be linked to an “Eastern European prostitution or human trafficking ring.”

PAGE 65– The Treasury records acquired by the Chairmen show potential criminal activity relating to transactions among and between Hunter Biden, his family, and his associates with Ukrainian, Russian, Kazakh, and Chinese nationals. In particular, these documents show that Hunter Biden received millions of dollars from foreign sources as a result of business relationships that he built during the period when his father was vice president of the United States and after.

In addition to providing new and descriptive details about the nature, origin, and extent of payments from Burisma Holdings to Hunter Biden, the documents acquired by the Committees also shed light on a much broader array of questionable financial transactions involving Hunter Biden, other members of the Biden family, and their associations with foreign nationals. These foreign nationals have questionable backgrounds that have been identified as being consistent with a range of criminal activities, including but not limited to organized prostitution and/or human trafficking, money laundering, fraud, and embezzlement.

PAGE 65– There is extensive public reporting concerning Hunter Biden’s alleged involvement with prostitution services. Records on file with the Committees do not directly confirm or refute these individual reports. However, they do confirm that Hunter Biden sent thousands of dollars to individuals who have either:

1) been involved in transactions consistent with possible human trafficking;

2) an association with the adult entertainment industry; or

3) potential association with prostitution. Some recipients of those funds are Ukrainian and Russian citizens. The records note that it is a documented fact that Hunter Biden has sent funds to nonresident alien women in the United States who are citizens of Russia and Ukraine and who have subsequently wired funds they have received from Hunter Biden to individuals located in Russia and Ukraine.

The records also note that some of these transactions are linked to what “appears to be an Eastern European prostitution or human trafficking ring.”
