Joe Biden allegedly attended a meeting shortly after his vice presidency with a Chinese energy company that was doing business with Hunter Biden, the House Oversight Committee said Tuesday.

House Oversight released a timeline of events detailing the Biden family’s alleged influence peddling with foreign business interests. Joe Biden allegedly met in May 2017 with officials from CEFC China Energy, a Chinese energy firm linked to the Chinese Communist Party, according to a Biden family associate, the House Oversight timeline says.

An alleged email between Biden business associates on May 13 described “10 held by H for the big guy?” referring to Hunter Biden allegedly holding a 10% ownership stake for Joe Biden, House Oversight disclosed. Joe Biden’s alleged “big guy” nickname is shown in emails from the Hunter Biden laptop archive with other business associates of the younger Biden.

Biden family business associate Tony Bobulinski said leading up to the 2020 presidential election that he spoke with FBI agents about Joe Biden potentially earning 10% of the money from the CEFC venture, the New York Post reported. Republican Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley referenced Bobulinski’s FBI interview in October 2022 when he requested more records from the FBI about the Biden family’s alleged arrangement with CEFC.

Hunter Biden’s business associate Rob Walker allegedly wired an unspecified Biden family member $15,000 from CEFC and wired JBBSR Inc., an LLC belonging to James Biden, the brother of President Biden, House Oversight found.

IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley testified to the House Ways & Means Committee about a threatening text Hunter Biden allegedly sent to a CEFC official with Joe Biden sitting in the same room.

“I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled. Tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand, and now means tonight,” Hunter Biden said.

“I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not following my direction. I am sitting here waiting for the call with my father.”

The original arrangement with CEFC was allegedly changed and additional Biden associates were apparently removed, an email Hunter Biden sent on Aug.2, 2017 shows, according to the House Oversight timeline.

“The chairman changed that deal after we me[t] in MIAMI TO A MUCH MORE LASTING AND LUCRATIVE ARRANGEMENT to create a holding company 50% percent [sic] owned by ME and 50% owned by him. Consulting fees is one piece of our income stream but the reason this proposal by the chairman was so much more interesting to me and my family is that we would also be partners inn [sic] the equity and profits of the JV’s investments,” Hunter Biden said.

The next day, Hunter Biden allegedly texted a CEFC associate about how the Bidens are “the best” at doing what his CEFC boss allegedly wanted, the House Oversight Committee revealed in late June. Owasco P.C., an LLC controlled by Hunter Biden was allegedly paid $100,000 by a CEFC subsidiary on Aug. 4th, 2017, the committee showed.

On Aug. 8th, 2017, Hudson West III, a joint entity formed by Hunter Biden and a CEFC official, was allegedly wired more than $5 million in payments, a Senate Finance Committee report discovered. Biden was allegedly sent nearly $5 million in payments from Hudson West beginning on Aug. 8th, the senate report continued.

House Oversight released a separate memo in March alleging that Walker was being paid on behalf of Biden family members by Chinese energy firms.

The White House has said Joe Biden was not involved in his son’s business dealings and Hunter Biden’s attorneys have said Hunter’s words have no connection to anyone else in the Biden family.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
