The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

OK, so you don't know either. No surprise there. No one knows. Whatever the Biden's various enterprises were selling, with all those bank records yet to sift through and then Biden's bank records themselves to subpoena, we will all find out.... drip... drip... drip...

Actually, we do know.
oversight.house.gov - Comer releases third bank memo detailing payments to the bidens from russia kazakhstan and ukraine%ef%bf%bc

In Spring 2014, a Ukrainian oligarch placed Archer and Biden on the Burisma board of directors and agreed to pay each of them $1 million per year. Then-Vice President Joe Biden visited Ukraine soon after they joined Burisma.

and

In April 2014, a Kazakhstani Oligarch Wired the Exact Price of Biden's Sportscar to a Bank Account Used by Archer and Biden: In February 2014, Hunter Biden met with Kenes Rakishev at a Washington, D.C. hotel. Rakishev worked closely with the prime minister of Kazakhstan, Karim Massimov. In April, Rakishev, a Kazakhstani oligarch, wired $142,300 to Rosemont Seneca Bohai. The next day, a payment was made from Rosemont Seneca Bohai for a sportscar for Hunter Biden in the amount of $142,300. Archer and Biden then arranged for Burisma executives to visit Kazakhstan in June 2014 to evaluate a three-way deal among Burisma, a Chinese state-owned company, and the government of Kazakhstan.

The $20 million bought access, exclusion from the Oligarch Naughty List, and Lord knows what else they talked about over dinner and visits.

Drip.
Dripppp...
