Joe Biden’s political career is pretty much over. He wouldn’t win the Nevada caucus this coming weekend and is slipping badly in South Carolina. But that doesn’t mean he and his crooked son should get off the hook for their corruption. Turns out not only did Hunter Biden get tons of money from Ukraine and Burisma, but Hunter Biden also sat on the board of a trade coalition that lobbying Obama for Ukrainian aid money! No wonder Joe Biden was so involved with Ukraine during Obama’s reign of terror.

Hunter Biden was on the board of a trade coalition that lobbied the Obama administration in 2014 on foreign assistance to Ukraine, and appears to have set up a State Department meeting for the group’s president.
Biden’s links to the U.S. Global Leadership Coalition (USGLC) and its affiliate, the Center for U.S. Global Leadership, have gone largely unreported in the coverage of his various business dealings, which have caused a headache for his father as he runs for president.
The Bidens have been dogged by allegations that the younger Biden profited off of his last name. Similar allegations have followed organizations like Ukrainian natural gas company Burisma Holdings, which brought Hunter Biden on as a director in April 2014, despite his having no experience in the energy industry.
USGLC, which lobbies and advocates for increased spending in the State Department’s International Affairs Budget, added a series of Ukraine-related bills to its lobbying portfolio at around the same time, lobbying disclosures show.
Biden’s private equity firm, Rosemont Seneca, was by far the smallest company of any of the directors on USGLC or the Center for U.S. Global Leadership.
