The White House faces mounting scrutiny as it invokes 'executive privilege' to block the release of approximately 200 documents stored in the National Archives (NARA). The documents are related to Hunter Biden's business interactions during the Obama administration.

These documents have come under intense public and legal scrutiny amid allegations of a controversial business scheme involving the President's son, Hunter Biden.

Amidst mounting pressure from multiple quarters, including the watchdog organization America First Legal (AFL), which filed a lawsuit to access these NARA records, the White House has clamped down on the release of documents that could shed light on Hunter Biden's business activities and their implications on the Biden family's political legacy.

Executive privilege umbrella

The documents track an investigation into Hunter Biden's Business Dealings while Joe Biden was the Vice-President. And there are details recently unearthed in the National Archive Records.

The documents in question span from January 2011 to December 2013 and pertain to Hunter Biden's involvement with "Rosemont Seneca," his business venture during his father's tenure as Vice President of the United States.

While the NARA did release 861 records that didn't fall under the 'executive privilege' umbrella, the remainder remains locked away.

In a statement, NARA defended its decision, stating that the withheld records contain "confidential advice" exchanged between then-Vice President Joe Biden and his White House advisors. 

The claim of 'executive privilege' is based on the notion that these documents would reveal sensitive discussions and confidential counsel provided to the President.

Intrigue and aliases

Joe Biden, during his time as Vice President, used a series of aliases in his communication. These aliases, including "Robert Peters," "Robin Ware," and "JRB Ware," raise further questions about transparency and accountability.

AFL's request for access to these emails has broader implications as it delves into Hunter Biden's earliest business dealings with Rosemont Seneca Partners. This entity is intricately linked to individuals like Devon Archer, Eric Schwerin, CCP-affiliated entities, and Che Feng, referred to by Hunter Biden as the "Super Chairman."

Hunter Biden's connection with the "Super Chairman" culminated in the formation of BHR Partners, a joint venture, in which his company, Skaneateles LLC, held a ten percent equity stake. What makes this venture even more controversial is its co-ownership by the state-controlled Bank of China, along with substantial global capital investments.
