Description
Democrat Group Under Criminal Investigation For Work Done
The U.S. Department of Justice is reportedly investigating the work of a Democrat lobbying firm that worked with Ukrainian gas company Burisma while President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, served on Burisma’s board.
“The probe comes as the Justice Department ramps up its scrutiny of foreign governments’ efforts to influence U.S. politics through covert lobbying operations,” Politico reported. DOJ’s torqued-up enforcement efforts may also create legal jeopardy for firms and operatives aligned with the Democratic Party.”
The Delaware U.S. Attorney’s Office, which has a separate criminal investigation open into Hunter Biden’s financial matters, is involved in the criminal investigation into Blue Star Strategies. A federal grand jury appears to have already been convened in the case.
Hunter Biden, while under investigation for tax and financial matters, could soon be facing an investigation over an October 2018 incident where he purchased a firearm after potentially lying on a background check form.
The background check that Hunter Biden filled out in October 2018 to obtain a firearm is relevant because, in order to obtain the firearm, Hunter Biden had to state that he was not addicted to any substances. However, in a recent book that he wrote, Hunter Biden admitted that at approximately the same time he obtained the firearm, he was addicted to drugs. Lying on an ATF Form 4473 is a felony that can carry a 10-year prison sentence with a $250,000 fine.
