CAUGHT: Secretary Blinken Lied About Contact With Hunter Biden
We’ve now seen two ways that Biden’s Secretary of State Antony Blinken is connected to the Hunter Biden scandal. We learned that he was leading the charge to downplay and cover up the Hunter Biden laptop, as Russian disinformation, and now we’ve learned he was in direct communication with Hunter Biden, the President’s controversial son, despite telling the American people – and lying to Congress while under oath – that he was not. Will the Biden Administration ever stop covering for the President’s family and come clean about Hunter?
GOP Senator Ron Johnson joined “Sunday Morning Futures” to discuss the investigation into the Biden family business dealings and Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s alleged contact with Hunter, expressing his belief that Blinken ‘lied boldface’ to Congress - not just about his contact with Hunter Biden, but “so much more.”
Sen. Johnson went on to clarify that the Secretary wasn’t just talking about some one-off interaction with the younger Biden that he forgot about, which might deserve a pass. This was an intentional misdirect regarding multiple emails, including those made from someone else’s account to hide the trail, which most of us would also refer to as a lie.
As the Senator told Fox News:
Antony Blinken finally did come in and sit down for a voluntary transcribed interview in December of 2020 because he wanted to be Secretary of State. And now, because of more information that's come out, we know that he lied boldface to Congress about never emailing Hunter Biden. . . .
He said he did not email Hunter Biden, and now we have those emails. We also know that his wife, using her private email address when she was a[n] employee of the State Department, was basically a conduit between her husband and Hunter Biden as well. So, again, I think there's so much more to uncover here. There’s so much more investigation.
He needs to be subpoenaed. I don't have subpoena power. He got to come in just voluntarily. If he wants to proclaim his innocence, I doubt he’ll do that, but he must and she must preserve their records, their personal emails. When you get to the bottom of this, we need to show how corrupt these individuals are.
This man was so desperate to get the Secretary of State post that he lied to the U.S. Senate about having never emailed Hunter Biden. Apparently Sec. Blinken forgot the number-one rule of the internet – what you put out there stays out there. This is the same Blinken who insisted that the Hunter Biden laptop wasn’t real and was just more “disinformation” to hurt the Biden presidential campaign. And it’s clear he was going out of his way to cover his tracks because he then used his wife as a conduit to contact Hunter Biden through her email. This is blatant subterfuge. Blinken seems almost incapable of telling the truth about the Bidens.
The Bidens are not people worth lying for, Mr. Secretary. Hunter appeared in an Arkansas courtroom THIS MORNING in a child support case for the 4-year-old child that he fathered out of wedlock, and his father – the President of the United States – is refusing to acknowledge the child as his granddaughter, despite a paternity test confirming she is indeed a Biden. How do any of these people sleep at night?
Regardless of Hunter’s and Joe’s reprehensible personal issues, what Sec. Blinken did here feels like a clear-cut case of election interference. Had the infamous laptop been confirmed and its contents brought to light prior to the 2020 election, the outcome might have been very different. Blinken knew that. Hunter knew that. And then-candidate Biden knew it too. So they all seemingly conspired together to keep that from happening. It’s an outrage.
We can’t help but agree with the Senator’s assertion that Blinken needs to go. The question is, what, if anything, will we see our government do about it? My fear is just a lot more head-turning and knowing grins from the Left.
