Hunter Biden frequently covered the expenses of his family, including his father’s, from his lucrative financial dealings, many of which came from abroad, records have shown.
The records are text messages and emails found on Hunter’s infamous laptop abandoned in a Delaware shop in April 2019, New York Post reports.
In one text from January 2019, Hunter told his daughter, Naomi: “I hope you all can do what I did and pay for everything for this entire family for 30 years.
“It’s really hard. But don’t worry, unlike pop, I won’t make you give me half your salary.”
Joe Biden, who is now US President, is “pop”.
While the records show no direct money transfers, it however confirms Hunter regularly took up the tab for his father’s expenses, including paying for an expensive maintenance job in Joe Biden’s lakefront home in the wealthy Greenville enclave of Wilmington, Delaware.
In an email exchange with business partner, Eric Schwerin from June 5, 2010, titled, “JRB Bills”, Hunter gave a breakdown of thousands of dollars spent on maintenance job on his father’s palatial lakefront home and other property. JRB is Joe Biden’s initials.
The expenses included $1,239 in repairs to an air conditioner at “mom-mom’s cottage,” $1,475 paid to a painter for “back wall and columns at the lake house,” and another $2,600 for fixing up a “stone retaining wall at the lake” and $475 “for shutters.”
Schwerinm, who was then serving as President of Rosemont Seneca Partners, Hunter Biden’s Chinese-linked investment firm, replied five days later in an email wherein he confirmed receiving Joe Biden’s “Delaware tax refund check”.
The email seemed to suggest that Schwerinm had access to the then-Vice President’s finances, tying the elder Biden more closely to his son’s controversial business dealings.
However, records also show Hunter sometimes got reimbursed by his father.
Schwerin wrote, “I am depositing it in his account and writing a check in that amount back to you since he owes it to you. Don’t think I need to run it by him, but if you want to go ahead.”
In another email on July 6, 2010, titled, JRB Future Memo, Schwerin wrote about keeping in touch with the vice president over his financial matters and how he was eager to kick off a discussion about him (Biden) cashing in after leaving office.
Home maintenance was not the only expenses father and son shared.
In May 2018, during a partying binge in Los Angeles, Hunter had mistakenly transferred $25,000 to an escort and was immediately visited by the secret service, suggesting that the funds came from a joint account with his father.
