Hunter Biden is in hot water once again over his requests to the State Department while his father served as Vice President of the United States while working for a foreign energy firm.
The president's son sought assistance from the State Department for a lucrative energy project in Italy when President Biden was vice president, according to the New York Times, highlighting allegations that he used his father's political standing as leverage for his foreign business interests.
The records show that Hunter Biden wrote at least one letter to the U.S. ambassador to Italy, John R. Phillips, asking if he could arrange a meeting between Burisma and the president of Tuscany, a region inside Italy.
The Times said that the discovery was made in emails that the State Department released after a separate request for public records related to Hunter Biden's contacts with officials at the U.S. Embassy in Romania about helping a real estate developer.
Hunter Biden asked several people if they could arrange an introduction between Burisma and the president of Tuscany, where the company was pursuing a geothermal project, Biden's lawyer Abbe Lowell said.
“No meeting occurred, no project materialized, no request for anything in the U.S. was ever sought and only an introduction in Italy was requested,” Lowell said.
The Times noted that federal prosecutors recently indicated that they could file additional charges against the president's son under the Foreign Agents Registration Act, or FARA, since he was lobbying the U.S. government without being registered.
A CNN panel reacted on Wednesday to the news on Wednesday, remarking that Hunter's request especially while his father served as VP as “very strange.”
“This isn‘t great. Hunter Biden, everybody in the White House has known for a long time, is an issue. The way that his lawyers responded to this disclosure saying, ‘Well, yeah, he sent letters but did nothing wrong.' This feels very strange to people that the vice president‘s son was sending letters or making requests to other government officials and saying, ‘Hey, would you meet with this company?',” CNN's Edward-Issac Dovere said.
“It does look like he was at least making people say, you notice my last name though, right?” Dovere continued.
“It doesn‘t look good,” Matt Gorman, a former adviser for Sen. Tim Scott's presidential campaign, said as part of the CNN panel.
“He is still facing trial later this year for tax evasion around Burisma. And look, I think it's one of the many reasons Democrats are probably breathing a big sigh of relief. They don't have to worry about Hunter Biden in terms of presidential campaign trail politics, but you‘re right, this is the background of this. And this certainly, he‘s not going away anytime soon,” Gorman continued.

“Democrats are probably breathing a sigh of relief?” Senators, Representatives, the FBI, DOJ and CIA conducted the greatest cover-up of the Biden Family’s Corrupt Business Deals in USA’s history. They repeatedly violated their oaths of office, completely ignored Joe Biden’s televised, and You Tube broadcasted confession that he actually did commit a Quid Pro Quo Impeachable Criminal Act, when he used a billion dollar taxpayer’s dollars to force the former Ukraine President to fire the prosecutor investigating Burisma and Hunter Biden. They not only kept the fact that Senator Joe Biden stole Classified Documents for years, they also allowed his accomplices to get away with aiding and abetting his thefts.
If you ask me, every government official and employee involved in the Biden Scandals should be held accountable for their actions..
Why isn’t Hunter in jail? He sold out our country to our enemies to profit his family financially. What worse thing could an American do beyond betraying America? He belongs incarcerated.
