Biden Family’s Chinese Connections Exposed
The National Archives has released photographs showing Joe Biden, during his tenure as Vice President, and his son Hunter meeting with high-ranking Chinese officials in 2013. These images, obtained by America First Legal through litigation, have ignited controversy over the Biden family’s potential connections with China and raised questions about the extent of Joe Biden’s involvement in his son’s business affairs.
The photographs capture meetings between the Bidens and Chinese President Xi Jinping, as well as then-Vice President Li Yuanchao. Importantly, they also show Joe Biden with Hunter’s business associates from BHR Partners, including Jonathan Li and Ming Xue.

Implications of the Revelations
The release of these photographs has significant implications, coming shortly after President Biden’s full and unconditional pardon of Hunter Biden on December 1. This pardon covers Hunter’s offenses related to illegally obtaining a firearm and failing to pay taxes, as well as any other offenses from January 1, 2014, to December 1, 2024.
“Even while President Biden has pardoned his son, Hunter, for anything and everything ‘he has committed or may have committed or taken part in’ going all the way back to the year 2014, more evidence comes out each day showing how his family leveraged Joe Biden’s even longer career in public office for private gain. America First Legal will not stop fighting to uncover the full story of the Biden family’s corruption.” – Michael Ding, America First Legal Counsel
The timing of these revelations has raised eyebrows, as the release of the photographs was delayed by Biden and Obama’s lawyers until after Election Day. This delay has fueled speculation about potential attempts to suppress information that could have influenced public opinion.

Congressional Investigations and Ongoing Scrutiny
The emergence of these photos aligns with findings by the House Oversight Committee, which has been investigating the Biden family’s international business dealings. The committee has previously reported that Hunter Biden arranged meetings between his father and BHR executives during the 2013 China trip.
“Joe’s pardon of Hunter doesn’t disqualify Congress from continuing our investigation into the Biden Crime Family Syndicate. In fact, Hunter’s pardon means he waives his Fifth Amendment protections. We must have him testify under oath—he can’t hide from the truth forever.” – Rep. Andy Biggs, of Arizona’s 5th congressional district
As the controversy unfolds, it’s worth noting that the Biden-Harris Administration is reportedly withholding 182 of the 313 photographs processed by the National Archives. This has led to calls for greater transparency and fueled speculation about what other information might be contained in the unreleased images.
Continuing Investigations
America First Legal has stated its commitment to uncovering the full extent of the Biden Family’s alleged corruption. As more evidence comes to light, the organization, along with congressional investigators, continues to scrutinize the family’s international business dealings and potential conflicts of interest.
The controversy surrounding these photographs and the Biden family’s connections to China is likely to remain a significant political issue. As investigations continue, the American public will be watching closely for any further revelations about the extent of the Biden family’s international business ties and their potential impact on U.S. foreign policy.
