Hunter Biden, during Wednesday’s deposition, did not refute the assertion that President Joe Biden is referred to as the “big guy,” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) exclusively disclosed to Breitbart News.
Previously, the Bidens neither confirmed nor denied whether Joe Biden was identified as the “big guy,” set to receive ten percent from a deal with a Chinese Communist Party entity.
Greene recounted, “At one point, we asked Hunter about the ten percent for the ‘big guy.’ We presented him with the email that laid it all out.”
“He responded, ‘Oh, that was after my father left office,'” Greene recalled from the deposition.
According to Greene, Hunter then attempted to justify the ten percent share for Joe Biden:
“What’s wrong with having a pie-in-the-sky idea? When he [Joe Biden] left office in 2017, it thought he was done. I had no idea was gonna run for president. What’s wrong with just some pie? … thinking that he [Joe Biden] could be in the business.”
While Hunter did not explicitly deny Joe Biden being the “big guy,” he disputed that the business plan included a ten percent allocation, Greene explained.
“Hunter said, ‘When it came down to the agreement that we signed,’ he said, ‘there was no percentage for my father in the business,'” Greene recounted.
Greene exclusively shared with Breitbart News that Hunter portrayed the 20 speakerphone calls Joe Biden participated in as routine. “He was saying it’s totally normal for your parents to call you,” Greene said. “He just totally kept on saying, ‘Oh, this is normal. This is normal.'”
Additionally, Greene affirmed Rep. Matt Gaetz’s (R-KY) statement that Hunter testified he joined Burisma Holdings’ board to counter Russian aggression. “He said he was picked to serve on Burisma’s board to defend democracy and Burisma was stopping Russian aggression,” Greene said.
Hunter’s stated rationale for joining Burisma’s board represents a new assertion that reveals previously undisclosed reasoning.
In 2015, Burisma faced suspicion of money laundering and public corruption. Prosecutor Victor Shokin was investigating the case before his dismissal following pressure from then-Vice President Joe Biden, who threatened to withhold $1 billion in U.S. aid from Ukraine unless the Ukrainian government ousted the prosecutor investigating Burisma.
Joe Biden later boasted about the firing during a 2018 appearance at the Council on Foreign Relations.
Greene cautioned Republicans to prepare for Democrats to propagate another Russian disinformation hoax regarding Hunter and the 2024 election. She suggested that the potential hoax would align with the media’s narrative to criticize former President Donald Trump and shield the Biden family:
“I have a prediction that they’re gonna move it on to members of Congress like me and others, Jim Jordan, Jamie Comer, any of us that got hot and heavy on this Ukraine Burisma stuff, that they’re somehow going to say that Republicans are Russian sympathizers. They’re gonna call me that anyway because I won’t fund the Ukraine war. They’re probably going to accuse us of being Russian sympathizers and falling for Russian disinformation and its election meddling. And then Democratic members of Congress here already saying they will not certify Trump’s election if he wins.”
“There was a really weird theme in there with the whole Russian thing,” Greene observed.
