before the 2020 election.<br \/>But now that we are all on the same page, there are some serious questions the administration needs to answer, which go to America\u2019s national security at a time of international peril.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Question_1\"><\/span>Question 1<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Biden\u2019s press secretary, Jen Psaki, refused to answer The Post\u2019s White House reporter, Steven Nelson, when he had the rare opportunity to ask her two of those questions last week.<br \/>Psaki\u2019s excuse was that Hunter Biden \u201cdoesn\u2019t work in the government.\u201d<br \/>But she wasn\u2019t being asked about Hunter. She was being asked about her boss, the president.<br \/>\u201cHow is President Biden navigating conflicts of interest when it comes to sanctioning people who have done business with his family?\u201d asked Nelson.<br \/>\u201cWhat would be his conflicts of interest?\u201d Psaki coolly replied.<br \/>Well, just for starters, Russian oligarch Yelena Baturina, who paid $3.5 million into a bank account associated with Hunter and his business partner Devon Archer, was not sanctioned along with other Putin-allied oligarchs this month.<br \/>Why not? Was it an oversight? A favor?<br \/>It\u2019s a serious question that deserves a serious answer.<br \/>Baturina wired $3.5 million on Feb. 14, 2014, to Rosemont Seneca Thornton, a consortium formed between Rosemont Seneca \u2014 the firm co-founded by Hunter, Archer and Chris Heinz \u2014 and the Thornton Group.<br \/>Baturina\u2019s wires were flagged in \u201csuspicious activity reports\u201d provided by the Treasury Department to a Senate Republican inquiry by the Finance and Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs committees.<br \/>Hunter\u2019s lawyer has denied \u00a0Hunter profited from the transaction, telling CNN: \u201cThe claim that he was paid $3.5 million is false.\u201d<br \/>So who received the $3.5 million and did they pay tax on it?<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"977\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/biden-laptop-04.jpeg.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024\" alt=\"Hunter Biden\" class=\"wp-image-21596563\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/biden-laptop-04.jpeg.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/biden-laptop-04.jpeg.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/biden-laptop-04.jpeg.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Several images surfaced from the laptop, letting people see who the real Hunter Biden is. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"760\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/hunter-biden-laptop-42-1.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=760\" alt=\"Hunter Biden\" class=\"wp-image-21596454\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/hunter-biden-laptop-42-1.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1520 1520w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/hunter-biden-laptop-42-1.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1140 1140w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/hunter-biden-laptop-42-1.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=760 760w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/hunter-biden-laptop-42-1.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=380 380w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/hunter-biden-laptop-42-1.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\"\/><figcaption>Hunter has several nude photos on the laptop, posing sexually.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"770\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/hunter-biden-laptop-38.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=770\" alt=\"Hunter Biden\" class=\"wp-image-21596453\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/hunter-biden-laptop-38.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1540 1540w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/hunter-biden-laptop-38.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1155 1155w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/hunter-biden-laptop-38.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=770 770w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/hunter-biden-laptop-38.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=385 385w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/03\/hunter-biden-laptop-38.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\"\/><figcaption>Hunter Biden poses for the camera. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Dinner_date\"><\/span>Dinner date<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Seven weeks after Baturina\u2019s wire transfer, Hunter and Archer flew to Lake Como, Italy, and had a meeting with her at Villa d\u2019Este, a favorite haunt of Russian oligarchs.<br \/>A year later, in April 2015, Baturina and her husband, the former corrupt mayor of Moscow and political ally of Vladimir Putin, Yury Luzhkov, would <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp;

That is because a $300 \u201creinstatement fee\u201d has not been paid, the Washington Examiner reported this month.<br \/>Clearly, if Hunter retains his shareholding, that should be disclosed.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Basic_journalism\"><\/span>Basic journalism<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The same <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">media<\/a> organs that ignored and traduced The Post\u2019s laptop reporting still show no curiosity about the tens of millions of dollars which the Biden family has collected from oligarchs in Russia, Ukraine and China.<br \/>The Times didn\u2019t need to rely on the laptop to do basic journalism on this scheme.<br \/>They could have asked Tony Bobulinski, Hunter\u2019s former business partner, who made himself available to the media before the 2020 election. He gave the FBI e-mails, documents and WhatsApp messages which corroborate and augment material on the laptop.<br \/>In addition, the Grassley-Johnson inquiry provided an official money trail from overseas interests to bank accounts associated with the Bidens and their partners.<br \/>The refusal of the Times and the rest of the media to cover this story amounted to election interference.<br \/>Polls show that about 10% of Biden voters would have changed their vote if they had known about the scandal.
