Hunter Biden’s attorney recently claimed that his client “didn’t share the money” from his business dealings with his father, President Biden, but a 2019 text message and several emails show which contradicts this claim.
Abbe Lowell, who has aggressively defended Hunter, said in a recent interview that he could “categorically” state that President Biden had nothing to do with Hunter’s past business and had no income from anyone. this.
“I can tell you that Hunter didn’t share his business with his dad,” Lowell said during a recent interview with CNN. “I can tell you that he did not share any money from his business with his dad. And as evidence there, his dad, like all good parents, tried to help Hunter when Hunter needed that help.”

HUNTER’S TEXT ABOUT HIM MAKING BIDEN FORK OVER HALF OF HIS SALARY RETURNS BETWEEN NEW DEMOCRAT TALKING POINTS
These claims by Lowell, however, do not appear when looking at Hunter’s text messages and emails from his abandoned laptop, as previously reported by Fox News Digital.
In a January 2019 text message, Hunter expressed his frustration with his daughter Naomi, and revealed that her father forced her to pay half of his salary.
“I hope you all can do what I did and pay for everything for this entire family Fro (sic) 30 years. It’s really hard. But don’t worry unlike Pop I won’t let you give me half of your salary,” Hunter wrote.

In a 2018 WhatsApp message with his uncle, Hunter lashed out at current first lady Jill Biden and called her a “f—ing moron” after she rejected a suggestion about her teaching and said he needed to get better, or he. unable to support his family.
“I’m angry [sic] my GM [sic] family including some of the expenses that you would have used your salary to cover [sic] for the last 24 years,” Hunter said.
In another text message exchange from 2018, Hunter admitted that he had been paying his father’s bills for more than a decade, drawing backlash from House Republicans.
“Lots cooking in the kitchen,” he wrote on April 12, 2018. “Lots of profile changes and such. Also happened 10 days ago. What do you need? I’ll bank in some. Need to verify the identity of the person.”
“I have to pay AT&T,” replied Hunter’s assistant Katie Dodge.

Hunter then instructed Dodge to put the payment on his debit card and on his “Wells Fargo credit line.”
“My dad used most of the lines in this account that I passed on the graces offered by Eric [Schwerin] has paid for the past 11 years,” Hunter wrote.
It is unclear whether Hunter claims to have a shared AT&T account or a shared Wells Fargo account with his father. The White House declined to comment when previously reached by Fox News Digital.
A 2010 email from Schwerin, Hunter’s longtime business partner, said he transferred funds from Biden’s tax refund check to Hunter’s account because he “owes it to you.”
A 2016 email from Schwerin to Hunter indicated that Hunter was expected to pay an AT&T bill in the amount of $190 for “JRB.”
One of the most famous emails from Hunter’s abandoned laptop was one that referred to the elderly Biden as a “big man” and said, “10 that H holds for the big man?” which is shorthand for the 10% that Hunter Biden holds for his father. Hunter’s former business partner Tony Bobulinski was previously confirmed as “the big man” a reference to now-President Biden.
A 2017 email about an equity split proposal for a joint venture with CEFC, a CCP-linked energy company, was sent by business associate James Gilliar, who also disparagingly told Bobulinski on WhatsApp, in May 2017 not to “discuss Joe involved, it was when u [sic] face to face, I know you [sic] know that but they are paranoid.”
“OK they must be paranoid about things,” Bobulinski said.
“Actually,” Gilliar said.

The House Oversight Committee recently included some of these examples as their “evidence” that Biden was involved in Hunter’s businesses and that he profited, including testimony from a pair of whistleblowers.
One of the whistleblowers, who claimed that Justice Department, FBI and IRS officials interfered in the Hunter Biden investigation, said earlier this summer that Hunter asked his father to pressure a partner. of business in China while discussing deals. IRS Criminal Supervisory Special Agent Gary Shapley oversaw the IRS investigation of the president’s son and said the agency obtained a July 2017 WhatsApp message from Hunter to Harvest Fund Management CEO Henry Zhao that showed Hunter saying that he was with his father to force Zhao to pay him $10M .
“I’m sitting here with my father, and we want to understand why the commitment that was made was not fulfilled,” Hunter wrote in a WhatsApp message to Zhao, according to the documents. “Tell the director I want to solve this now before it’s gone, and by now I mean tonight,” Hunter wrote.
The White House has repeatedly dismissed allegations by the House Oversight Committee about President Biden’s involvement in Hunter’s business deals in previous statements and has maintained that Biden is not in his son’s business, despite the transfer of those goal post many times. After Speaker McCarthy, R-Calif., announced an impeachment inquiry last week for Biden, the White House released a 14-page memo pushing back on the Republican claims and calling for to media outlets to increase scrutiny.

“After nearly 9 months of investigation, House Republicans have not been able to show any evidence of the President doing anything wrong. But House Republicans led by Marjorie Taylor Greene still open to a baseless impeachment inquiry of President Biden – despite many House Republicans openly admitting there is no evidence to support it,” White House spokesman Ian Sams wrote last week.
“The impeachment is extreme, unusual, and historic. The Constitution requires ‘treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors,'” Sams continued. “But House Republicans have publicly stated that they don’t know any of those things.”
The White House and Hunter’s attorney did not respond to Fox News Digital’s requests for comment.
