Joe Biden’s Brother James Now Under Federal Investigation

Federal authorities are reportedly conducting a criminal investigation into a hospital business tied to President-elect Joe Biden’s brother James.

Federal authorities in the Western District of Pennsylvania are investigating now-bankrupt Americore Health and have been asking questions about James Biden’s role in the company, two sources familiar with the investigation told Politico.

On Wednesday, Hunter Biden admitted that he is under investigation for tax fraud, and a government source told Fox News the investigation was predicated, in part, on suspicious foreign transactions.

The probe was opened in 2018, and is reportedly more expansive than previously thought, implicating Joe Biden’s younger brother James.

There is no indication that Biden himself is under investigation. But the investigation could complicate his presidency, drawing scrutiny on how the new Justice Department chooses to handle the investigation. It could also draw more attention to the Biden family’s business dealings.

Two hospitals operated by Americore were raided by FBI agents earlier this year over allegations of gross financial mismanagement and complaints that it was not  “in a manner that is consistent with public safety and welfare.”

The nature of Jim Biden’s involvement with Americore is disputed. He’s been described as a “principal” at Americore, according to court records in a civil case in Tennessee. But he’s denied that he is a principal at the organization.

A Politico report from September details claims from two small medical firms that did business with Jim Biden that he transferred money from Americore to himself in the form of personal loans that have still not been repaid. One former Americore executive told Politico that Jim Biden’s loans amounted to at least half a million dollars.

Here's more on the investigation of James Biden from the New York Post:

The company filed for bankruptcy in December 2019 as prosecutors said CEO Grant White “improperly siphoned money from the debtors for his personal benefit.”

James Biden is now the second member of the political family to come under scrutiny from federal investigators.

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) on Thursday called for a special counsel to be appointed to look into the Bidens’ business dealings.

“The Biden campaign released details of a tax fraud investigation in Wilmington. I think that was just to show maybe the least damaging part of the investigation,” Cotton said Thursday on Fox News.

“There are allegations of securities fraud, money laundering related to Hunter Biden’s Chinese businesses, a crooked hospital deal with Jim Biden, Joe Biden’s brother out in western Pennsylvania. These investigations span multiple jurisdictions.”

According to a CNN report, investigators in the US Attorney’s Office in Delaware are also probing a laptop that reportedly belonged to Biden’s scandal-scarred son, which was first reported by The Post.

A 2.8-carat, $80,000 diamond given to Hunter Biden by a since-vanished Chinese energy tycoon is also said to be part of the ongoing tax fraud probe, another report on Thursday said.

It's not just the Bidens of course.

High ranking Democrats everywhere are being exposed for their links to China.
