61% of Americans think Joe WAS involved in son Hunter’s business deals with China and Ukraine while he was VP, dire new poll for president finds
A dire new poll for Joe Biden shows that the vast majority of Americans believe he was involved in his son Hunter’s foreign business dealings while serving as vice president.
According to a new CNN poll Released Thursday, 61 percent of Americans believe then-Vice President Biden had “some involvement” in Hunter’s business dealings and 42 percent responded that Joe acted “illegally.”
And 66 percent of respondents said Joe Biden’s “actions related to his son Hunter Biden’s business dealings in Ukraine and China” were illegal.
In addition, 55 percent said President Biden acted “improperly” regarding the federal investigation into his son, compared to the 44 percent who say he acted “appropriately.”
The White House has rejected any suggestion that Joe was involved in his son Hunter’s business deals over the years.
The poll results fuel the fire of the Republican-led effort to impeach the president for his alleged role in the Biden family’s “influence peddling program.”
“Despite efforts by the corporate media and Democrats to cover up the Bidens’ corruption, the American people don’t believe it,” House Oversight Chairman James Comer told DailyMail.com in response to the poll.
“There is such clear evidence that Joe Biden was involved in his family’s shady plans for influence. The Republicans in the House of Representatives will continue to monitor the evidence and remain accountable to the American people.”
Speaker of the House of Representatives Kevin McCarthy has said opening an impeachment inquiry into Joe’s connections to Hunter’s foreign dealings is on the table.
He said if the Biden administration continues to “withhold” documents, Republicans will “proceed with the impeachment inquiry when we get back in session.”
The House of Representatives returns to DC next week and the Judiciary Committee is set to lead the impeachment process.

Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan R-Ohio has said Republicans are still gathering facts to assess whether to hold a resolution vote to open a formal impeachment inquiry.
But he told Fox News’ Sean Hannity this week that “it seems like every day we need to move more into that phase of our oversight.”
“This impeachment inquiry will make it clear to the American people what Joe Biden did and when he did it,” added House Oversight Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., in the joint interview.
His commission led the charge of investigations into the Biden family’s business dealings and uncovered more than 20 shell companies where foreign entities allegedly funneled money.
Firebrand’s Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., has said lawmakers will soon force a vote on impeaching Biden — and warned McCarthy could face consequences if he tries to stop them.
Representative Mike Collins, R-Ga., has expressed support for the House of Representatives opening a formal impeachment inquiry against President Biden.
He also urges his colleagues to pass any remaining credit bills before government funding runs out at the end of September.
Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., has pledged to vote against funding the government if impeachment proceedings had not begun.
However, it may be challenging to get more moderate Republicans in the House of Representatives to support impeachment proceedings, which will be dead on arrival in the Senate.
Comer has acknowledged this challenge, saying he has had “conversations” with many of them, but stresses that the “evidence is overwhelming.”
“Even members of the moderate wing of our party realize that this could possibly be the biggest political scandal of my adult life,” he stressed.
Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., said Thursday he’s not a “fan” of impeachment, but an investigation could be a way to make sure subpoenas from the GOP aren’t ignored.
“I’m not advocating impeachment, I want Joe Biden to lose the election. I don’t think it’s good for the country. We have seen the trauma that has been done to this country and continue to inflict it because of that obsession,” he told Fox and Friends.
The CNN poll was conducted before federal prosecutors revealed Wednesday that they plan to indict Hunter Biden on illegal gun charges by the end of September.
Republicans are also investigating alleged political interference in the federal investigation into Hunter.
“The Speedy Trial Act requires the government to obtain the return of an indictment by a grand jury no later than Friday, September 29, 2023,” said Special Counsel David Weiss’ team file.
Hunter allegedly lied about a firearms report (above) needed for his gun transaction. A photo of the form shows him answering “no” when asked if he was an “unlawful user of or addicted to marijuana or any other depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug or other controlled substance.”

“The government intends to seek the return of charges in this case before that date.”
Hunter had lied about a 2018 application to buy a gun.
A photo of the form shows him answering “no” when asked if he was an “unlawful user of or addicted to marijuana or any other depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug or other controlled substance.”
Hunter wrote about his extensive drug use during that period of his life in his 2021 memoir, Beautiful Things.
The president’s son appeared in federal court on July 26, prepared to plead guilty to two tax counts and walk away with just a slap on the wrist and no jail time.
The Republicans had labeled it a “sweetheart deal” that Biden’s DOJ had put in place to protect him.
However, the deal exploded spectacularly after a hidden clause giving Hunter full immunity from a wide variety of other possible charges, including illegal foreign lobbying, was discovered by the judge.
