The Honorable David Weiss
United States Attorney
District of Delaware
Dear Mr. Weiss:
Since August 2019, we have been investigating Hunter Biden’s and James Biden’s
financial connections to foreign governments and questionable foreign nationals. 1 On September
23, 2020, and November 18, 2020, we publicly released our Biden Reports that showed potential
criminal financial activity with respect to Hunter and James Biden. 2 In addition, our reports
showed how their extensive links to foreign governments and questionable foreign nationals
posed counterintelligence and extortion concerns. Our work was falsely labeled by the liberal
media and some of our Democratic colleagues as advancing Russian disinformation. 3 Therefore,
to prove them wrong, on March 28, 2022; March 29, 2022 and April 5, 2022, we released
financial records during Senate floor speeches that corroborated and further substantiated theforeign financial transactions and connections we described in our previous reports. 4 The bankrecords we are providing you today supplement those floor speeches.
After those Senate floor speeches, on May 9, 2022, we wrote to you and asked whether
you possessed financial records relating to the Biden family’s financial connections to thecommunist Chinese government, including those that we made public in our Senate floor

speeches. 5 You failed to answer and instead the Department of Justice (DOJ) interceded torespond on your behalf, and it also failed to answer our questions. 6
Today, in light of your and DOJ’s failure to respond to our legitimate congressionaloversight requests and as part of our ongoing congressional investigation, we are transmitting to
you over two hundred pages of records relating to the Biden family’s connections to the Chinese
regime and persons connected to its military and intelligence elements. These records include
over one hundred pages of unredacted and previously unreleased bank records relating to one of
Hunter Biden’s businesses, Hudson West III. 7 If you are conducting a full and complete
investigation, you should already possess these records. In the case that you are not and do notpossess these records, we suggest that you review them in detail.
BackgroundSome of the central CEFC China Energy (CEFC) players mentioned in the attachedrecords are Hunter Biden’s Chinese business associates, Ye Jianming and Gongwen Dong. Ye
Jianming is a Chinese national, the founder of CEFC and a frequent figure in the Biden family’s
financial dealings with China. Ye was also chairman of the board for CEFC’s subsidiary, theChina Energy Fund Committee. 8 Although CEFC reportedly remained a private company until
state-owned enterprises assumed control of it in 2018, reporting in 2017 indicated that it received
financing from the China Development Bank, “hired a number of former top officials from stateowned energy companies,” and had “layers of Communist Party committees across its
subsidiaries — more than at many private Chinese companies.” 9 Ye had connections not just to
the communist party in China, but also China’s People’s Liberation Army. 10 A news report
noted that, “[i]t’s been clear for some time that [CEFC] is not just a Chinese commercial
company, that they had some intelligence ties.” 11
Gongwen Dong is a business associate of Ye who executed numerous transactions on
Ye’s behalf. 12 According to reports, Gongwen formerly served as chief financial officer at
Radiance Property Holdings, a firm now “controlled and run by Lam Ting Keung, a businessman
with deep connections to ‘united front’ groups linked to Chinese intelligence.” 13 Gongwen

served as a manager/officer of Hudson West III, Hudson West IV, and Hudson West V. These
are business entities associated with Hunter Biden, which shows the close business and financial
relationship between the two of them.
According to a document prepared by Biden family business associate James Gilliar,
CEFC’s corporate mission was, “[t]o expand cooperation in the international energy economy
and contribute to the national development.” 14 Indeed, that same record states that CEFC is“dedicating itself to serving China’s national energy strategy,” “developing national strategicreserves [for oil],” and “[p]artnering with centrally-administered and state-owned
enterprises[.]” 15 The record also makes clear that CEFC was an extension of the communist
Chinese government:
At the time, China was hungry for crude, but its state-backed
companies were having difficulty closing some deals abroad. The
optics of China’s state-backed giants marching into a country to buy
and extract oil weren’t great for central Asian politicians. This
paved the way for private firms like CEFC, which can strike oil deals
in Europe and the Middle East where Chinese State Owned
Enterprises (SOEs) could bring political liabilities. 16
That same document also states that CEFC “is building an energy storage and logistics system inEurope” to connect China, Europe and the Middle East which would then “[serve] China’s
ambitions to have overseas storage locations connected with world markets.” 17 CEFC was theperfect vehicle to bring financial benefits to the communist regime under the guise of a private
sector company. 18
2015-2017: Business relationship grows between Hunter Biden and CEFC
CEFC began working to establish ties with the Biden family as early as 2015. 19 Before
Ye reportedly disappeared in 2018, he and CEFC sought business in the United States and his
efforts were in line with the communist Chinese government’s goal to “[prioritize] economic
development as the ‘central task’ and the force that drives China’s modernization across allareas, including its armed forces.” 20 Hunter Biden’s position of influence and connections to
Chinese business interests, which were further strengthened while his father was vicepresident, most likely appealed to Ye, a man who The New York Times has described as“[wanting] access to the corridors of power in Washington.” 21 It has also been reported that

CEFC donated as much as $100,000 to the Clinton Foundation, presumably as part of thatpublic influence effort. 22
According to reports, “[i]n the winter of 2015, Chairman Ye and CEFC Executive Director
Jianjun Zang… flew to Washington, DC. A meeting with Ye was scheduled in Hunter’s diary for
December 7, 2015…” 23 Records show that Hunter Biden’s business associate, James Gilliar, wasactively involved in efforts to develop investment opportunities for CEFC around the world, andinvolved Hunter Biden in those efforts. A May 15, 2017, report prepared by Gilliar states that
Hunter Biden was involved in efforts to build relations between CEFC and the country of
Oman. 24 According to the report, “HB was key in relationship set up, messaging the good willaround the chairman [Ye Jianming] and the non-conflict status of CEFC entry, ‘a bridge between
two great nations’.” 25 The report also states that Hunter Biden was responsible for “[w]riting to
all parties and organizing meetings to continue CEFC promote [sic], as well approving step-bystep strategic and operational elements.” 26
Records obtained by our offices show that Ye became very close with Hunter Biden. For
example, in an October 2017 message exchange produced by Anthony (Tony) Bobulinski,
Hunter Biden told Bobulinski that although he “stayed out of that Russian mess,” he “discussed
the Roseneft [sic] deal” 27 with Ye personally and was familiar with the deal, including the factthat Ye was “pissed off…by the execution[.]”28 In the same exchange, Hunter Biden explained
to Tony Bobulinski that he spoke to Ye on a “regular basis,” they have a “standing once a week
call,” was the “first guest in his new apartment,” “he cooked me lunch himself and we ate in the
kitchen together,” and was helping Ye “on a number of his personal issues (staff visas and somemore sensitive things).” 29
According to reports, Ye met with Hunter Biden on February 14, 2017, in Miami,
Florida. 30 He also reportedly gave Hunter a 3.16-carat diamond valued at $80,000. 31 As westated in our November 18, 2020, report, just nine days later, on February 23, 2017, a Shanghaibased company called State Energy HK Limited that was affiliated with CEFC China Energy,
sent a $3,000,000 wire to Robinson Walker LLC, a company associated with Hunter Biden andJames Gilliar’s business associate, Rob Walker. 32 State Energy HK Limited sent another$3,000,000 wire to Robinson Walker on March 1, 2017. 33 While the purpose of these two

27 As noted in the Nov. 18, Report, in Sept. 2017, CEFC announced its intention to purchase a 14.2 percent stake in the Russianstate-owned energy company, Rosneft, for approximately U.S. $9 billion. CEFC subsequently agreed to a reported €5 billion loan
deal with Russian state-owned VTB Bank to finance the purchase. The 14.2 percent stake would have come from the 19.5
percent stake in Rosneft previously purchased by a consortium of Glencore (a Swiss mining company) and the Qatar Investment
Authority (the sovereign wealth fund of the Qatari government). See Nov. 18 Report at 4.

The records we are providing to you also show additional payments after Hunter Bidenbecame a manager from Hudson West III to CEFC Infrastructure Investment totaling$381,033.68; Gongwen Dong totaling $123,319.68; 44 Hunter Biden’s Chinese-American
assistant JiaQi Bao totaling $29,795.84 and Coldharbour Capital LLC, a company associatedwith Hunter Biden’s business partner, Mervyn Yan, totaling $318,286.37. 45

Hunter, James, and Sara Biden go on a spending spree courtesy of CEFC/Hudson West III
Shortly after Hunter Biden and Gongwen Dong signed paperwork to establish theirpartnership in Hudson West III, the two also signed paperwork to open a line of credit shared by
Hunter Biden and his aunt and uncle, Sara and James Biden. Today, we are providing a credit
card authorization form signed by Gongwen Dong and Hunter Biden that was used to finance a
global spending spree for Hunter, James, and Sara Biden. 46 We are also providing bank records
showing that credit cards were collateralized by a $99,000 preauthorized withdrawal from
Hudson West III dated September 12, 2017 (see image below). 47 As we noted in our September
23, 2020 report, the Bidens used the credit cards to make purchases from airlines, Apple stores,
hotels, and restaurants. 48 The records that we are providing include an unredacted copy of thecredit card authorization agreement, as well as Hudson West III bank statements showing records
44 The total for Gongwen Dong includes two wires sent from Hudson West III to Gongwen Dong in the amounts of $7,279.29
and $9,864.11 on February 26, 2018. The wires were returned the same day. Attachment at 84, 131-133.

of online credit card payments. 49 According to bank records, Hudson West III made online
credit card payments totaling $101,098.61. 50

On September 12, 2017, the same day that Hudson West III sent $99,000 to First
National Bank of Omaha to collateralize the credit cards, the Bidens reportedly began assisting
their Chinese business associates with efforts to secure U.S. visas. 51 Sara Biden reportedly
contacted John Sandweg, who had formerly served as Acting Director of the U.S. Immigration
and Customs Enforcement during the Obama Administration, regarding visas for Ye and his
family. 52 We previously released an October 2017 text message conversation between Hunter
Biden and his business associate, Tony Bobulinski, in which Hunter Biden stated that he was“talking to the Chairman [Ye Jianming] on a regular basis” and “helping him on a number of his
personal issues (staff visas and some more sensitive things)…” 53 Also, on September 20, 2017,49 Attachment at 44, 55-59, 80-95.

not long after the credit cards were issued, Hunter Biden reportedly requested keys to an officesuite at the House of Sweden in Washington be made for his “new office mates: Joe Biden Jill
Biden Jim Biden Gongwen Dong (Chairman Ye CEFC emissary).” 54
Hunter Biden’s association with Patrick Ho – “the f***ing spy chief of China”
In addition to Ye and Gongwen, Hunter Biden also associated with another potential
foreign agent tied to CEFC. Chi Ping Patrick Ho, a business associate of Ye’s and CEFC, wascharged and convicted of international bribery and money laundering offenses stemming fromhis work for the CEFC-backed China Energy Fund Committee. 55 Following Ho’s conviction,
the U.S. Department of Justice stated, “Patrick Ho paid millions of dollars in bribes to the leadersof two African countries to secure contracts for a Chinese conglomerate.” 56 According toreporting, the federal government obtained at least one FISA warrant on Patrick Ho, indicating
his potential counterintelligence threat to the United States. 57 Indeed, Hunter Biden was wellaware of Patrick Ho’s links to the communist Chinese government, specifically its intelligence
services. According to publicly released records, Hunter Biden said the following in a recording
reportedly dated May 11, 2018, 58
I have another New York Times reporter calling about myrepresentation of Patrick Ho – the f***ing spy chief of China whostarted the company that my partner, who is worth $323 billion,
founded and is now missing. 59
On March 29, 2022, we publicly released bank and wire records showing a November 2,
2017, payment from CEFC Limited to Hudson West III in the amount of $1,000,000 and a
March 22, 2018, payment of $1,000,000 from Hudson West III to Hunter Biden’s company,
Owasco LLC, for “DR PATRICK HO CHI PING REPRESENTATION.” 60 Accordingly, after
Patrick Ho became associated with criminal activity, Hunter Biden didn’t cease his relationshipwith him, rather he accelerated it and leveraged the relationship to make money. We areincluding unredacted copies of these records in this production to you. 61

Hunter Biden’s association with JiaQi Bao
After Hudson West III was formed, Hunter Biden reportedly hired JiaQi Bao. 62
According to reports, Bao earned her degree at Tsinghua, a top Beijing university. 63 After that,
she reportedly worked for the communist regime’s National Development and Reform
Commission before moving to a China-based investment firm that was also connected to theregime. 64 When Ye was detained in March 2018, Bao reportedly sent Hunter an email
explaining that “Ye’s situation changed” and that Hunter needed to take as much money as hecould from Hudson West III because if he failed to do so, the money would become “nobody’s
money” which “means they take away whatever you give up to no body [sic] knows where in thesystem…” 65 Bao also questioned why the U.S. government had the authority to prosecute
Patrick Ho for bribes that took place outside the U.S. and provided opposition research to Hunter
Biden on then-President Trump ahead of the 2020 election, calling Hunter her “coconspirator-inmischief.” 66 As the records we are providing you today show, Hunter Biden’s company, HudsonWest III, sent multiple payments to JiaQi Bao totaling $29,795.84. 67
We are providing these records because you have failed to answer our legitimate
congressional oversight questions with respect to how you are conducting the Hunter Biden
criminal case, whether you have been provided all necessary resources and support from theJustice Department and if you’ve acquired these bank records – as well as others – during thecourse of your review. In light of the Justice Department’s and FBI’s failure to be transparent
with Congress and the American people, please answer the following no later than November 9,2022:
1. Has the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Delaware issued a grand jury
subpoena to Wells Fargo, USAA, Bank of America, TD Bank, JPMorgan Chase,
PNC, Morgan Stanley, Citibank, Bank of New York Mellon, Bank of China and First
National Bank of Omaha for records relating to Hunter Biden, James Biden, Sara
Biden, John R. Walker, Eric Schwerin, Devon Archer, Tony Bobulinski and corporate
entities linked to them including, but not limited to, Hudson West III and the LionHall Group? If not, why not?
