"Russia's Terrorism Allegations: Hunter Biden, Ukraine, and Nord Stream"

The Russian government has accused Ukrainian energy company Burisma Holdings, linked to Hunter Biden, of financing terrorist attacks inside and outside Russia, without providing any evidence. Moscow also suggests that certain unnamed U.S. officials may have been involved in funneling money to Burisma. The Kremlin's move appears to revive a conspiracy theory promoted by Donald Trump about the Biden family's alleged nefarious activities at Burisma, just in time for the 2024 U.S. presidential election. However, Republicans have been unable to substantiate these claims, and the FBI informant whose allegations were used to drive a Republican impeachment inquiry against Biden was charged earlier this year with making the whole thing up.

DOJ Charges Former FBI Informant with Lying About Bidens' Ukraine Business

Former FBI informant Alexander Smirnov has been charged with lying to the FBI and creating false records regarding President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden's involvement in business dealings with Ukrainian energy company Burisma Holdings. The charges undercut Republican claims that Joe Biden financially benefited from his son's business dealings in Ukraine. Smirnov allegedly misrepresented his contacts with Burisma executives and falsely implicated the Bidens in bribery allegations, despite the timing of the events not aligning with his claims.

Hunter Biden's Former Business Partner Exposes Damning Evidence Against Joe Biden

Hunter Biden instructed his business partner, Devon Archer, to purchase a burner phone in 2014 as he finalized his appointment to the board of Ukrainian gas company Burisma Holdings. The email exchange raises questions about potential shady business dealings involving Hunter Biden. Archer later met with then-Vice President Joe Biden at the White House, and a month later, Hunter Biden joined Burisma's board. The burner phones were likely for international use, as major US cellphone companies did not yet offer convenient global calling plans. Analysis of Hunter Biden's abandoned laptop revealed his use of multiple private messaging apps, suggesting a willingness to conceal potentially damaging information. The email also discussed the political and economic situation in Ukraine and referred to Joe Biden as "my guy." Some Republicans have questioned whether Hunter had improper access to classified briefing materials.

Devon Archer's Testimony Shakes Foundation of Joe Biden's Foreign Deals

Former Hunter Biden business partner Devon Archer testified to the House Oversight Committee that Ukrainian natural gas company Burisma Holdings added Hunter to its board because of the Biden "brand" and that Burisma's owner and an executive pressured Hunter to enlist the US government to help oust a Ukrainian prosecutor. Archer also stated that Hunter put his father, Joe Biden, on speakerphone more than 20 times during business meetings to promote "the brand." While Archer's testimony did not provide evidence damaging to President Biden, former FBI official Chris Swecker noted that the alleged speakerphone calls and the timing of certain events could suggest bribery. Republicans and Democrats had alternating one-hour blocks of time to conduct the deposition.

"Controversy Surrounding Hunter Biden's Activities and IRS Whistleblower Revelations"

Hunter Biden was seen dining at the upscale restaurant Nobu in Malibu, California, while news broke of a newly released FBI informant file alleging a $10 million bribery scheme involving him and his father, President Joe Biden. The file claims that the Bidens coerced a Ukrainian oligarch into paying them the sum. The informant also stated that Hunter and Joe Biden urged the owner of Burisma Holdings to keep Hunter on the company's board, believing that Joe's influence could protect them. Shortly after the release of the document, federal prosecutors unanimously agreed to drop recommended felony and misdemeanor tax charges against Hunter Biden, which is seen as a violation of Justice Department policy.

GOP's Thin Allegations of Biden Bribery and Cover-Up Claims

Sen. Ted Cruz accused the FBI of "covering up" evidence of a $5 million bribery scheme involving President Joe Biden and Ukrainian natural gas firm Burisma Holdings, where his son Hunter Biden sat on the board. During a Senate Judiciary hearing, Cruz pressed FBI Deputy Director Paul Abbate on whether the bureau is in possession of the report on the Biden family bribery allegations, but Abbate refused to comment. The FBI reportedly possesses a FD-1023 form and 17 voice recordings between the Burisma informant and Joe and Hunter Biden.
