In their message to the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) and DOJ Attorney General, Sens. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, and Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), ranking member of the HSGAC Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, remarked that they have been reviewing financial transactions and connections between and among members of the Biden family and foreign nationals connected to the CCP, including its military and intelligence services.
Last week, the senators published a report that showed millions of dollars in “questionable financial transactions” between Hunter Biden and his allies and foreign individuals, including the wife of the former mayor of Moscow and people with links to the CCP.

Of distinct matter, the GOP senators wrote in their letter, Hunter Biden had a “close and personal relationship” with Ye Jianming, a Chinese oil tycoon whose company, CEFC China Energy Co.

The president’s son also had a close relationship with Ye’s business associates, Gongwen Dong and Chi Ping “Patrick” Ho, the senators wrote.
“It’s imperative that Congress better understand the relationship Ye Jianming, Gongwen Dong, and Patrick Ho had between and among themselves, with the communist Chinese government, CEFC China Energy, and their activities in the United States, including those relating to the Biden family. Accordingly, please produce all intelligence records, including but not limited to, all FISA-derived information relating to these three individuals no later than April 14, 2021.”

Hunter Biden drew backlashes during last year’s election season after a former business partner disclosed to media outlets a trove of text messages, some of which proved his friendly ties to Ye. Other messages insinuated the president was aware of his son’s business activity, although then-candidate Biden rejected the knowledge of his son’s businesses.

The discoveries provoked concern about foreign influence on U.S. policy. Federal examiners are currently probing Hunter Biden’s “tax affairs,” including reportedly his business dealings with China.

“If any of the responsive documents do contain classified information, please segregate all unclassified material within the classified documents, provide all unclassified information directly to the Committees, and provide a classified addendum to the Office of Senate Security,” the senators added.
