in the attempt to sell foreign oligarchs access to Joe in exchange for payouts. Via wires that passed through an account run by Biden family associate Rob Walker, James Biden profited at least $360,000 from a deal with CEFC. After that, James Biden’s consulting group received more than $1 million in a series of wires from a Hunter Biden company that was receiving money from a joint venture between Hunter Biden and CEFC Chairman Ye Jianming.

Even The Washington Post admitted in 2022 that “the Chinese energy conglomerate and its executives paid $4.8 million to entities controlled by Hunter Biden and his uncle.”

On top of that, James, his wife Sara, and Hunter went on a $101,291 spending spree with credit cards opened by Hunter and Kevin Dong, who “served as ‘Chairman Ye[’s] CEFC emissary’ in the United States.” The three Bidens purchased “extravagant items, including airline tickets and multiple items at Apple Inc. stores, pharmacies, hotels and restaurants.”

And James appeared to be an active player in setting up meetings with foreign players, some of which were set to include Joe Biden, according to WhatsApp messages apparently sent by Hunter.

“My uncle will be here with his BROTHER who would like to say hello to the Chairman,” Hunter wrote in August 2017 to Kevin Dong, whom IRS investigators described as one of the “U.S. managers for CEFC.”

James Biden admitted to IRS investigators that he had met with Chairman Ye Jianming of CEFC “once,” and said he had attended a luncheon in Romania with Hunter and a few of Hunter’s associates in what the IRS said James “understood … to be a side deal.”

And in the same email noting that 10 percent of the CEFC deal would be held by Hunter for the “big guy,” another 10 percent was earmarked to go to “Jim.”

Washington Post – Bias and Credibility

LEFT-CENTER BIAS
These media sources have a slight to moderate liberal bias.  They often publish factual information that utilizes loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by appeals to emotion or stereotypes) to favor liberal causes.  These sources are generally trustworthy for information but may require further investigation. See all Left-Center sources.

Overall, we rate The Washington Post as Left-Center biased based on editorial positions that moderately favor the left. Due to a few failed fact checks, they earn a Mostly Factual rating.

Overall, we rate The Federalist Questionable and far-Right Biased based on story selection and editorial positions that always favor the right and promotion of propaganda, conspiracy theories, and numerous failed fact checks.
