Maybe you too can make bullshit Art and sell it for $500K or more

[berryberry]

Oh the grift.

Hunter Biden's art to sell as high as $500K and the buyers will be kept 'confidential'

https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics...t-selling-500k

Hunter Biden selling his "art" to protected anonymous foreign buyers for exorbitant prices is literally money laundering and influence peddling in broad daylight for the Biden Crime Family.
And our deceitful corporate press - they have no interest in covering this story because they're covering up for the Biden Crime Family.

Hunter Biden Art Sales Raise Alarm With Ethics Watchdogs

Foreign nationals buying Hunter Biden’s artwork for up to $500,000 in order to buy influence with the senile Biden administration. Art is often used to bribe public officials in China, where the practice is referred to as "yahui" or "elegant bribery," according to the New York Times.

"In some cases, an official will receive a work of art with instructions to put it up for auction; a businessman will use it as the currency for a bribe, purchasing the art at an inflated price and giving the official a tidy profit," reported the Times in 2013.

And yet crickets from the mainstream media - or any hypocritical liberals here who would have been going apoplectic now if this was something Don Jr did

the Biden Crime Family strikes again

REVEALED: The White House HELPED Hunter Biden reach a deal to keep buyers of his paintings listed for up to $500,000 confidential despite widespread concerns it could lead to bribery and influence peddling.



'The whole thing is a really bad idea,' ethics expert Richard Painter told the Washington Post, which revealed new details of the arrangement.

'So instead of disclosing who is paying outrageous sums for Hunter Biden’s artwork so that we could monitor whether the purchasers are gaining access to government, the WH tried to make sure we will never know who they are. That’s very disappointing,' tweeted ethics expert Walter Shaub.

'The idea’s that even Hunter won’t know, but the WH has outsourced government ethics to a private art dealer. We’re supposed to trust a merchant in an industry that’s fertile ground for money laundering, as well as unknown buyers who could tell Hunter or WH officials? No thanks,' the former director of the Office of Government Ethics in the Obama administration added.

more on this Biden Criminal Enterprise from Glenn Greenwald (noted LIBERAL journalist)

What's even worse about this is that the buyers of Hunter Biden's art are free to remain anonymous from the public, but there's nothing stopping them from telling Hunter -- or Joe or Biden officials -- that they bought his art for some insane sum, nor publicizing it themselves.

People are buying Hunter Biden's art for the same reason that Burisma was willing to pay him so much money for his nonexistent expertise in the energy industry.

Obama's former ethics chief, @waltshaub, on WH's deal to help Hunter sell art: It's a "perfect mechanism for funneling bribes to [the] president"

"It’s an industry that’s notorious for money laundering."

What do you know - liberal NBC Nightly News stumbles into actual journalism! Stephanie Gosk investigates the massive ethical problem of Hunter using the Biden name to enrich himself by selling overpriced "hotel art." "There is also concern that someone might try to gain influence with the President..."

This should have been a routine layup but instead it just plays into the slimy asf narrative you expect from a Clinton or a Trump

[berryberry]

Update: Hunter Biden is expected to meet w/prospective buyers at 2 art shows w/his paintings. There is an agreement to keep the buyers’ identity secret but this could put the president’s son in front of his potential customers

The art shows allow the president's son to meet potential collectors of his art, defying the spirit of a White House ethics agreement.

It just goes to show you the focus isn't on government ethics. It's just showing the Biden Crime Family is cashing in on the presidency. 10% for the Big Guy !!!

Art Critic Jerry Saltz said to "imagine" if Donald Trump Jr. "made little watercolors" like Hunter Biden's "art". “Now imagine all the foreign agents, fishy businessmen, lobbyists, politicos buying the work & back room deals. The potential for conflict of interest is enormous & dangerous.
