Biden's Brother's Firm Received $1.5 Billion In Government Contracts, Had Zero Experience

A recently released book details how multiple members of the Biden family became rich thanks to Joe Biden’s position as vice president of the United States. In other words, Joe apparently leveraged his public position as one of the most powerful men in the world to his advantage, which in turn benefitted his relatives.

Yeah, that’s kind of a problem. Here’s what’s up, via Breitbart:

A firm employing James Biden, the younger brother of former Vice President Joe Biden, received more than $1.5 billion in government-backed contracts during the Obama administration.

The dovetailing of James Biden’s professional life with his brother’s political influence are extensively detailed in Peter Schweizer’s new book—Profiles in Corruption: Abuse of Power by America’s Progressive Elite.

In 2010, shortly after a disastrous attempt at running a hedge fund with his nephew Hunter, James Biden entered the construction and international development industry. Even though he lacked background in either, James secured a position as executive vice president at the newly formed HillStone International, LLC. The firm, which was a subsidiary of the long struggling Hill International, was unique for a multitude of reasons.

What more do Democrats need to know about Biden?

Are there any gaffes, racial or just plain ignorant, that he has yet to make? Has he ever done anything to benefit the United States during his decades in public service?

Come on, people. When is enough enough? Get over the hatred of Trump so America can finally move forward.

WATCH:

Woah.

Watch Joe Biden attack Barack Obama’s foreign policy credentials.

And yet the man had no idea his son was using his connection to get big paying Burisma job. The more I see of Joe the less I like him.

Biden has always had a lot to say on foreign policy. And he’s always been wrong.

Gotta wonder how Obama will respond to this. Joe is a idiot.

He jumps right into intimidation every single time he’s challenged. Textbook verbal assault.

This is what Dems believe commands respect on the world stage? Respect is earned, not commanded. “Garner respect” would be the better term.

@JoeBiden’s facelifts make him look like th @MadameTussauds wax figure of a human being. or an avatar. and enough with th high-beam porcelains. how about th mansion he’s lived in on an estate since 1977 while claimG to be th poorest person in congress. #DonorClassJoe #LyinBiden
