i assumed his brother was well off..why a loan for 200KEXCLUSIVE: Former White House Ethics Lawyer says Joe Biden MUST Produce Proof of His $200K Loan To Brother James after Republicans revealed Personal Check they claim is evidence of Biden family's influence peddling
Ex-White House ethics lawyer Richard Painter is demanding Joe Biden release proof of a $200,000 loan to his brother, after a bombshell check was published by Congress today.
- James Biden took money from his health care business Americore and sent it directly to Joe Biden, according to bankruptcy court documents
- James was able to receive the loans based upon 'representations' that his last name, 'Biden,' could 'open doors'
The House Oversight Committee published evidence on Friday that the President's brother James Biden received a $200,000 loan from a healthcare company he was working with in March 2018 – and the same day wrote a check for the same amount to Joe, marking it as a 'loan repayment'.
It is the first evidence of large direct payments to the President from Biden family members involved in shady overseas deals, and was obtained via a Congressional subpoena of James and First Son Hunter Biden's bank records.
In an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com, Bush administration White House ethics chief Painter said that the President could face serious consequences if he can't produce evidence the supposed loan is real, and demanded his aides show the receipts.
'What is absolutely critical here is to find documentation of the original loan from the President to his brother, and the President should produce that,' Painter said.
'If there was no loan, there are serious questions about whether this was income for tax purposes in 2018. That's really a huge problem.
Painter also questioned why payments on the alleged loan were not reported on Joe's government ethics forms.
When he announced his bid for President in 2019, he was required to file a statement with the Office of Government Ethics (OGE) listing his income, assets and liabilities dating back to 2017.
OGE rules say Joe did not have to report the loan itself on his disclosure forms. But Painter said interest earned on the loan could be reportable as an income source for the then-presidential candidate.

Even if this was a personal loan repayment, it’s still troubling that Joe Biden’s ability to be paid back by his brother depended on the success of his family’s shady financial dealings.
Just for context here. Rudy Giuliani was mayor of New York. He left office and went back into private practice. He immediately becomes a named equity partner at Bracewell Giuliani, but does no real legal work. He was there solely because of his status and contacts. He had lots of contacts from his time as mayor and as head of the SDNY. This is what famous political figures do after they leave office and government employment. If you wanna create a law preventing this, fine, do it, but until then, you're just screaming into the void.Jose is a crook and you know it. Maybe him knowing he's in deep dodo and Hunter will get jail time will age him another 5 years in 6 months.

So what else do you got?
First, Joe Biden wasn't a public official of any kind in 2018. Second, family members seldom prepare receipts for loans to other direct family members, even for large sums. Biden is not obligated to produce a receipt, even if he got one. And if there was a receipt, it was probably trashed 5 or more years ago as there would be no reason to keep it after repayment. It's a /family/ loan. Biden is not obligated to account for every check he wrote or received as a private citizen just because a bunch of GOP yahoos want to smear him.
