BREAKING NEWS – Washington, D.C. – Joe Biden and his presidential campaign are staying mum after Hunter Biden’s former business associate went public to say he met twice in the past with the former vice president — despite past statements from Biden on the campaign trail that he had no involvement with or discussions about his family’s overseas business ventures.

That associate, Tony Bobulinski, detailed his alleged meetings with the former vice president—one of which took place on May 2, 2017, according to text messages.

Those messages indicated that the meeting did, in fact, take place. Bobulinski claimed that it was Hunter Biden and Jim Biden, the brother of the former vice president, who had pushed the meeting.

Joe Biden tweeted about the text messages that. “If Hunter and Jim did something illegal, why drag me into this? I’m trying to win an election! And if those two get locked up, within a couple of months of me not seeing them, I wouldn’t have any idea who they are, and I would have completely forgotten about Hundley and Tim.”
