Bank records exclusively obtained by DailyMail.com show Hunter Biden used his business account to pay for suspected prostitutes, pimps, smoking paraphernalia, and a DC club frequented by congress members – as well as sending money to his father.
The newly uncovered bank records are among the voluminous evidence used by Special Counsel David Weiss to bring nine federal tax charges against Hunter in an indictment claiming he lived a ‘lavish lifestyle’ while deliberately failing to pay his taxes.
The 22-page Wells Fargo statement from September 2018 details a wild and profligate month had by the First Son, even as his tax debts piled up.
The documents show Hunter spending $20,300 on suspected prostitutes and payments to an alleged pimp, other money to a Washington DC private members club frequented by members of Congress, payments to a Los Angeles smoke shop and an anti-catfishing app – all from his business account.
The September 2018 bank statement also shows Hunter’s company received $495,000 from his Chinese government-linked business partners and over $40,000 from allegedly corrupt Ukrainian gas company Burisma that month.
The House Oversight Committee released one page of bank records showing the First Son set up a regular $1,380 payment to Joe Biden in September 2018 from his company checking account.
Republican committee chair James Comer said the payment was evidence that cash from Hunter’s shady overseas business deals ended up in the President’s pocket.
Records from Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop obtained by DailyMail.com suggest that the payment was for a 2018 Ford Raptor truck.
Though the Oversight Committee only published one redacted page from the September 2018 bank statement showing a $1,380 payment to Joe, DailyMail.com has obtained the whole 22-page document.
The statement begins with a hefty incoming wire of $165,000 on September 4 from Hudson West III LLC, Hunter’s joint venture with Chinese oil giant CEFC from which he ultimately received over $6 million.
Hunter then withdrew $1,600 in cash, booked a hotel room, and wired $5,000 to Yuliia Serdiuk, a suspected prostitute with a Russian email address.
His payments that month to the woman total $19,900, in three wires and three transfers using bank app Zelle.
The statement details a card payment of $57.65 at Happy Bros., a West Los Angeles smoke shop. The shop’s Facebook page includes pictures of bongs and other smoking paraphernalia.
Photos from Hunter’s abandoned laptop dated in September 2018 show him cavorting naked in bed with a suspected prostitute, parading in barely-there white underwear and a red scarf at a party in a rented Hollywood home, and photographing his assistant naked in a hotel room.
He also video-called a female friend while naked to show her temporary tattoos he put on his back resembling the Finger Lakes in upstate New York, where the Biden family often vacationed.
The Wells Fargo bank statement for his Owasco P.C. company account shows on September 14, 2018 a $60 payment to the 116 Club, a Washington DC private members club frequented by top officials, lawmakers, and lobbyists.
On September 13, a $30,000 payment was sent from the account to Columbia, for his daughter’s university tuition.
IRS whistleblowers who investigated Hunter told Congress that the First Son tried to deduct tuition fees from his taxes as business expenses – along with payments to suspected sex workers.
The information is part of the evidence prosecutors are now using to pursue Hunter on tax crime charges.
An indictment filed in a Los Angeles court earlier in December accuses Hunter of willful failure to pay taxes from 2016 through 2019, as well as the felonies of evasion and filing a false return in 2018.
In a table summarizing all the lavish expenses the First Son paid for instead of his tax debts, the court document lists $683,212 in payments to ‘various women’ from 2016 to 2019, $1,664,004 in cash withdrawals, $71,869 on rehab, $188,960 on adult entertainment, $24,445 on ‘entertainment’ and $23,567 on ‘sports/recreation’.
The indictment accuses Hunter of deducting fake business expenses in 2018 to lower his tax bill, including $388,810 on ‘business-related travel’ and even payments to strippers.
The September 2018 Wells Fargo statement lists a $400 transfer to a possible pimp on September 21.
Hunter was connected with the man by a parking manager at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles, his texts show.
‘How many hours are you looking to pay for,’ the middle man, ‘Michael’, wrote to Hunter in a July 24, 2018 text message.
He sent cryptic messages to Hunter appearing to disguise the use of prostitutes as ‘polishing a car’.
‘I’m polishing my car right now and it’s very good quality polish,’ Michael wrote to Hunter. ‘I teased myself after trying to set that up and ending up getting a wash myself that night. Then again last night. Lololol. Dude has quality.’
Emails on Hunter’s laptop show he sent $2,800 to the suspected pimp in September 2018 in one wire transfer and three Zelle payments.
Documents from Hunter Biden’s laptop suggest his payment to his father revealed in the Owasco bank statements was for a truck.
Hunter’s assistant compiled a spreadsheet of his bills in January 2019, which included a monthly $1,380 ‘payment to JRB from RHB – autopay owasco acct’ for a ‘2018 Ford Raptor Truck’.
JRB and RHB are Joe and Hunter’s initials, and Owasco P.C. is the name of Hunter’s firm that set up the automatic payment according to the documents published by Comer.
The spreadsheet of bills says the Ford truck was ‘purchased June 2018 after selling Si[l]verado & Colorado trucks’.
In a statement, Hunter’s lawyer Abbe Lowell criticized Comer for suggesting the payments were part of a corrupt deal.
‘There Chairman Comer goes again — reheating what is old as new to try to revive his sham of an investigation,’ the attorney said.
‘The truth is Hunter’s father helped him when he was struggling financially due to his addiction and could not secure credit to finance a truck. When Hunter was able to, he paid his father back and took over the payments himself.’
Hunter’s assistant, Katie Dodge, wrote in her January 17, 2019 email to Joe’s personal aides that he would be taking over the payments for his son.
‘It is my understanding that Hunt’s dad will cover these bills in the short-term as Hunter transitions in his career,’ Dodge wrote.
DailyMail.com has previously published texts Hunter wrote to his daughter claiming that Joe made him hand over ‘half’ his salary.
‘Don’t worry unlike Pop I won’t make you give me half your salary,’ he wrote to his daughter Naomi in January 2019.
Lowell also gave a statement to CBS about Hunter’s new indictment, claiming Hunter had ‘paid his taxes in full’ by 2021.
‘[If Hunter’s] last name was anything other than Biden, the charges in Delaware, and now California, would not have been brought,’ the attorney said.
‘I wrote U.S. Attorney Weiss days ago seeking a customary meeting to discuss this investigation. The response was media leaks today that these charges were being filed.’
