Vice-President Biden Used Burner Email Accounts to Communicate /w Hunter's Business Associates, Skirt Records Laws - UPDATED!
It is illegal to use private email to conduct government business. At least Mitt Romney’s fake Twitter profile “Pierre Delecto” was not used for official business or illegal activity. Anyone who says this is the same thing is not being truthful.
Biden’s other burner accounts aside form Robert.L.Peters@pci.gov are “robinware456@gmail.com,” “JRB Ware” and “67stingray.”
Sen. Ron Johnson and Sen. Chuck Gressley have made a government records request with documents containing these aliases, as has House Oversight Commitee Chairman James Comer.
The burner accounts were not only used for government business, but Hunter’s laptop shows multiple emails with these burner accounts some of which contain Vice President Bidens schedule and other business.
Hillary Clinton used the same tactic with her private email server to skirt records laws and engage in Clinton Foundation grifting.
American First Legal released the first batch of emails using these aliases, but more are likely to come with new government records requests.
New York Post:
As vice president, Joe Biden kept a variety of private email addresses from which he would sometimes forward and receive government correspondence, Hunter Biden’s laptop shows.
“Robin Ware,” “Robert L. Peters” and “JRB Ware” were three such pseudonyms on emails that mixed official and family business.
In a four-week period in 2016, for instance, John Flynn, who worked in the Office of the Vice President, sent Joe his official daily schedule to his private email address Robert.L.Peters@pci.gov and copied Hunter.
There were 10 such emails copied to Hunter between May 18 and June 15, 2016.
In one email from Flynn to Joe, a.k.a. Robert Peters, on May 26, 2016, and copied to Hunter, the schedule includes “8.45am prep for 9am phone call with Pres Poroshenko.”
Petro Poroshenko was president of Ukraine and, at the time, Hunter was being paid $83,333 a month to sit on the board of corrupt Ukrainian energy company Burisma Holdings Ltd. Hunter introduced top Burisma executive Vadym Pozharsky to his father in April 2015 at a dinner at Café Milano in Washington, DC.
In December 2015, Biden famously threatened Poroshenko that he would withhold $1 billion in US aid unless he fired Ukraine’s top prosecutor, Viktor Shokin, who at the time was investigating Burisma owner Mykola Zlochevsky. Shokin was removed from office on March 29, 2016.
State Department officials have testified that they tried to raise concerns directly with Biden that his son’s Burisma involvement was a conflict of interest that undermined US anti-corruption efforts in Ukraine, but they were rebuffed.
Joe forwarded another email about Ukraine through one of his pseudonymous private email addresses, RobinWare456@gmail.com, to Hunter and his brother Beau, then Delaware attorney general, on March 26, 2012.
The email was from Deputy Secretary of State (now Secretary of State) Antony Blinken, forwarding an email from US Ambassador to Ukraine John Tefft: “Beau visited Kyev [Ukraine] on the Friday and gave a talk on corruption at the Hyatt … then attended reception at the residence where he met many young Ukrainian lawyers. We received many compliments on his presentation and for simply a frank discussion of a problem that still bedevils this country.”
