The son of Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden will step down from the board of directors of a Chinese-backed private equity company by the end of this month and commit to halting all work with foreign entities if his father wins the White House in 2020, according to his attorney.
In a July 25 phone call, Trump, according to the unnamed whistleblower, asked Zelensky to look into alleged criminal wrongdoing by the Bidens in connection with Hunter Biden's job with a Ukrainian gas company. U.S. arms sales to Ukraine have become embroiled in a controversy after the White House ordered nearly $400 million in military assistance to Ukraine to be withheld.
Mesires said Hunter Biden plans to resign from the board of BHR Equity Investment Fund Management Co., which is backed by the Chinese government, by Oct. 31. In April, Hunter Biden resigned from the board of directors of Burisma Holdings, a major Ukrainian natural gas company.
The Biden’s are criminals and relatively stupid
Who step down over fake attacks? No one.
Now time to investigate Joe and Hunter. We Americans are tired of corruption and our judicial system sitting idle.
Stepping down for a reason as the temperature increases. Wait till we get to the US funding of the Ukraine gas and where did the money go. Way beyond the Biden kid.
If false attacks why step down? Anyone seen or heard from Hunter? Let me guess he'll now just be doing contract work for the same company.
False attacks so has to step down? What no guts?
If they are false, why would you step down? That makes no sense, Hunter...
Why isnt congress investigating the bidens
The Bidens are garbage.
The only believers of media Ukraine narrative is the media. The rest of us know why Hunter got millions from foreign countries while his dad VP. Media believe we are as dumb as they are. Hunter and Joe committed treason!!!
Why would you step down from a high paying position if all facets were worthy of scrutiny? If there is nothing improper... there will be no story to tell.
Completely normal 😕 ...so false that he just has to resign 😂
Oh really! We will see
'False attacks' 'stepped down' Yeah, you go with that LOL
FALSE ATTACKS....🤪...
Look who is going to question him. They have written the script & been practicing for days.We all know what will be said.Trump is wrong to talk to Ukraine. Maybe they will ask 1 China question.He will say my father had nothing to do with Anything. Impeach Trump. We are not Stupid
Rudy Giuliani comrades Lev and Igor at dinner with their American friends! I can't see Hunter Biden!
Hmmm, so VP ok, but not as President
“False attacks”? Yet, he’s stepping down? I think someone’s getting nervous 😬
So why is he stepping down?
If its 'false attacks', then why step down?
If there are false attacks why would he even step down because he knows he was profiting from his father’s Office
“False” 😂😂😂😂😂
If the attacks are false, why did HB step down?
“if his father wins the White House in 2020” 🤣
Media shamed into reporting the Biden’s corruption
He didn’t do anything wrong, but he will stop doing it. Lol.
They're false so I'll step down. Trump2020
He's stepping down just to show how false they are. Right?
False accusations? Are you saying ABC that Hunter Biden did not get a $1.5B 'investment' whole his father was VP and while having zero investment banking exp? ABC news, where lies are considered truth
If nothing wrong with collecting billions from China and millions from Ukraine then why step down?
Biden must b investigated as well as Clinton Foundation. Think about it folks...CF stopped getting donations once Hillary n bills careers in politics ceased. foundation took 100s of millions & paid themselves mostly. Totally pay 2 play n corrupt. We must stop this abuse of power
False
False excuse me
He’s claimed he’s innocent, but he’s stepping down?
Why step down if he did nothing wrong Sounds a little fishy!!! I’m calling BS
False Attacks ... FakeNewsAlert
To late you fool
TheTrumpCrimeFamily is always projecting their corruption...and their crimes. InvestigateIvanka
If they are false attacks then why step down
More and more, we see one set of rules for Dems and another set for Republicans. The Obama Adm spied and framed Americans with false evidence to win the 2016 election.The corrupt Dems are trying to frame Trump and his team again to win the 2020 election&hide their criminality.
Why step down then?
Tschau, Tschau und tschüss der beiden Biden😂🖕🖕🖕
He steps down because his dad is running for president but didn’t when he was actually Vice President.
Now do they trump kids
Keep pushing the propaganda
if false why resign? the media bias is becoming crystal clear.

Kicked out of the Navy for drug abuse, no advanced education, pulls his sister in law, and hookers, yet rakes in a salary of 83 thousand dollars (from Ukraine; God only knows what he got from China) per month. What could possibly be wrong with that? 😂😂😂😂😂
Why hasn't anybody sued for defamation of character already? He couldn't possibly win, as he does it all live. They need a Class Action lawsuit just for this.
The real crooks calling others a crook...The I'm rubbber you're glue defense.
Let’s demand Congress to subpoena Joe Biden’s and Hunters phone call transcripts of their calls with Ukraine and China.
If they agree to investigate Ivanka, Jared, Don Jr., and Eric with the same vigor as Hunter Biden, I am all for investigations. Let the chips fall. Ivanka didn't get special patents from China because she smiled at them.
Corruption! Joe Biden has been selling the office of VP and Hunter is the bagman.
Trump kids- get out of the WH.
Miss leading headline.
ABC should be ashamed, only some of the attacks on Biden were false. This makes people think Hunter did not sit on the board of a Ukrainian Oligarch and raked in the money based off his name. Trump and Biden kids both did this.
If the “attacks” are false the why is he stepping down 😂
JoeBiden 'The Chinese are not a threat or in competition with us folks.' Now, we all know the reason why. JoeBiden and his son Hunter are the lapdogs of the Chinese.
If you can read...
If it’s “false”, then why step down?
What About the Trump Ties to Businesses?!?! Why are Reporters not consistently responding to the allegations against Biden by investigating & announcing the list ofTrump Family Business Ties, Nepotism, & Cronyism? This should be the response each & every time Admin. Spews Smut!
Do Americans Need a Biden Octopus?
Guilty..
False attacks? The truth is undeniable and the evidence overwhelming. Yet ABC continues to propagandize negitive stories about the President. Why?
Something illegal and bad Biden getting in front of, won't work, his dad's campaign ended weeks ago.
If false why step down?
But why
This: News media CNN pushing this Biden story (that's made up no crime involved) just like Hillary emails..they R trump enablers (ask)Why is this bs getting so much airtime..
( He ) did false attack on you and did real of attack on ( Him ) soo idiotility..
If false attacks, then why quit?! Maybe because he got the fake job because of his dads deal with China?! Wake up people! Bidens are some of the biggest thieves in politics! Been ripping us off for years
If the attacks are false, why did he step down? If everything is legitimate, why take such a dramatic step? Defies logic.. Makes no sense. Why not just state his position.? Justify his actions Because he has none. QuidProJoe
Caught with his hand in the cookie jar LockHimUp HunterBiden China Ukraine
That's because they ARE TRUE...... duh.....
'false attacks' 😂but steps down. Hypocrisy 101 and the media sleeps
If the attacks are false then why step down
Such a bad move unless he really is hiding something.
Too late! Subpoena the MFer!
Can’t give in to bullying.
Wtf was he even doing there in the first place. Jeez MSM tore realDonaldTrump a new one just for visiting the DPRK to make peace. Can you imagine if DonaldJTrumpJr was on a North Korean board?
So he's stepping down because he says Trump is lying
So “false” he had to quit the cushy job I see 🤣
Good luck starting again after 2020.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Too late. Now that you’re rich.
Ok now do the tRump kids!
his son looks like bundy!!!!! ha ha
ha ha
Biden's son looks like Ted Bundy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now let’s look into Ivanka, Don Jr and Eric who are making a fortune off of their father being president.
So it was ok when he was VP? He just conceded he was wrong! Remember crooked Hillary promised th same with the foundation that was soliciting bribes. Face it dems are crooks
Hunter had no expertise in hedge funds. No big loss to the board. But had raked in money by the barrel
Looks the Biden crime family got their hands caught in the cookie jar.
Omission of guilt why didn’t he just say no?
Not enough. Investigate fake news.
Biden’s blatant in your face corruption - Joe’s finished & the media shamed into reporting this deplorable misuse of office
Why did he star just as his VP father became in charge of Ukraine I guess the corrupt media sees nothing wrong with that b
But why? I thought there’s nothing wrong?
That can only mean he is guilty of something.
as soon as Ivanka gives up all her China trademarks
Sunday, the most watched news day of the week, NOT. Coincidence?
NBC News reports that Hunter Biden met with a Chinese banker while joining then-VP Joe Biden’s official 2013 trip to China. Hunter Biden was attempting to form a Chinese privet equity fund. Just 10 days after the trip Chinese authorities issued the funds business license.
if he was legal why step down his dad will never be president.
But why is it ok for trump's kids? I don't get it.
Looks like your not stepping down anytime soon 🤦♂️
Fishy fishy fishy !!! Fishy stinking.. make his coochie hitch! He got STDs !
So he’s saying, “you busted me, but I promise not to do it again.” It’s ridiculous how shameful and the shear size of the double standards the left lives by.
A wise move Hunter! All the best to your dad’s campaign.
And yet 45’s children continue to make their deals
Let’s get a full investigation of all this noise.
I did nothing wrong and I won’t do it again.
So it's a conflict of interest now but not before .. check already cleared
Will never happen!!
And what about all that money he's been getting from the Chinese and Ukraine thanks to his daddy's back room deals?
What say you, Trump kids?
See if Trump’s kids do the same.🤔
And what about Joe Biden's brother and the $1,500,000,000 contract for Iraqi construction projects that were never completed?
Sure he will.....not. Just another desperate ploy like the hundreds of others these past few weeks.
He your daddy won't win, this means stay with your plans, sooner or later, you're FIRED
😂😂😂 so I guess he wont be stepping down any time soon. CrazyJoe will never be President. LunaticLeft LiberalismIsAMentalDisease DemocratsHateAmerica DemocratsAreScum
Corrupt Hunter backing out, knowing his corruption is ruining everything for his even more corrupt father.
A Chinese military backed company? He may want out but he'll never actually be out.
Makes sense since precedent has now been set for him to take a cushy govt job once his dad’s elected. Wondering how daddy and the gop will scream when that happens, IvankaTrump?
He knows damn well his dad won’t get elected.
Now it’s Trump’s turn to have his children do the same.
It hasn’t stopped Jared Kushner from getting money for his family for 666 Fifth Avenue allegedly $1.8 billion How was that not a conflict of interest since he’s an advisor in the White House Is Jared still in MBS Pocket Making a Killing
How will he survive?
If it was all on the 'up and up' why would he need to step down? I contend that he would only step down knowing that his Daddy would get him an even better deal if he was President.
If is unfounded conspiracy theory, why is he stepping down? 🤔🤔
What about Deranged Donald kids are they going to do the same. Or are they privileged because they are his kids and he thinks he's above the law.
Too late
Does anyone know how to go about getting a full body scan?
Spoiled rich son
Okay Hunter work in China. then why it Ukraine he keep saying? Oh he got that president in trouble with his country that trump is good.Don't go after China but Ukraine. Russia can move in,who do turkey got behind them? no one so how can they take over Syria trump made a deal
So when does Ivanka give up her China patents?
We want it or no China and India will attack ) because they need land after strom
If one is a crook, they all crooks. Lock them up
They read share the end art ) they will active war so climat t can off this generation so they can keep.lies to another generation) they United the two left hands
LOL
But I thought he did nothing wrong?
Note, how corrupt media has stopped investigating the Biden's? They don't point out anymore how China expanded territory, military and economy under the Obama/Biden watch ..after Biden's troubled son was paid $1.5B. They have in past. Why not now?
and he has nothing to hide ...stop trying to spin this is pure BS and biden and his son!!! will be charged
I thought you guys should everything was legit and this was a conspiracy
Who knows? Maybe China promised the Bidens some more money.
IF his father wins the White House. What joke. Quid Pro Joe.
He should not even be in any of those positions while his father is in politics....
Yes everyone stops doing the sordid deed when it isn't a sordid deed. Why'd he step down if there is no impropriety? Real news media would report on that.
Hunter and Joe Biden are guilty of corruption. Joe sold the VP office to the Ukrainians and Chinese.
Why? Would the be a conflict of interest if his father was in high office?
I thought Joe gave the media orders not to report about Hunter
joe biden's 'quid pro quo'-corruption should be fully investigated. congress, barr, n wh should ask for ukraine's help TO FIND THE FACTS N THE TRUTH, THE MONEY TRAIL. FREDO CUOMO. if joe is innocent, he has nothing to fear. fair n equal justice for all.
'If.' Schwateva!!
meanwhile, dolan is still profiting off of his business dealings with foreign nationals....
Doesn’t seem like the actions of someone under “false attack.”
The swamp is draining.
Peter Jennings has rolled over in his grave! Seeing ABC News turn to tabloid trash! So CNN like!
Bout time Hunter figured out that it's bad optics to be on the Board of Directors of certain foreign firms while his father is running for President. He may be innocent but while Trump is out there with his lies and dissembling, it's good to find some nice American firms to run.
Well Played!! The ball is in the Trumps court!
Hey trash ABC News? What's false? There's video and photo proof! Try to do some real journalism!!!
Now waiting for Trump’s kids to respond....
False attacks? His only qualification is that daddy was VP.
Joe Biden win 😂😂💩
Dotard's sleazy offspring should sit this one out. They do way worse. Bigly so.
For a coke addict and fired from military and not speaking Chinese he sure became a smash in Ukraine and China. Wow talented guy.
ONLY THING THAT IS WORSE THAN A CROOK, IS IF THE CROOL WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN FOUND OUT AND WOULD HAVE CONTINUED MAKING MILLIONS OFF HIS ILL GOTTEN “JOB”.... THANK GOD HE GOT CAUGHT. VOTE REPUBLICAN...KEEP THIS SNEAK OUT OF OUR GOVERNMENT !
In response, Donald Trump Jr. graciously stepped down as executive vice president of the Trump Organization, which is building two Trump-branded resorts in Indonesia with no money put up by Trump. The MNC Group, led by CEO Hary Tanoesoedibjo is partner in the $1.7 billion project
Which is what the trump crime family kids should have done. Starting to think Tiffany is the only smart one.
Shouldn't Trump's children do the same?
Will the Trump family members do the same? I doubt it!
Yeah sure right
Don’t worry about that hunter
If if by done strike of luck he wins Hunter will start working the following day
The real news story, the elephant in the room, is that the washington dc politicians get family members high paying jobs to help hide their dishonest income based on bribes.
This is evil corporate media. After we get done with trump you will be next. if we don't live in the truth, Our life is a lie.
Sonia4everlily1 LOL
Dead Stop 🛑 Technically “legal” or not, NO children of ANY politician should be afforded perks of monetary gain from government connections. PERIOD!
Too late. This is a huge political scandal. It's being pushed aside by the mainstream media and that's a disgrace.
ASININE STATEMENT IF THE YEAR A LA HUNTER BIDEN!
Trump family should have divested; they are hypocrites for pointing fingers on this issue
Yet Trumps kids makes millions and it’s all good? Such a ridiculous deflection from him again trying to rig an election and the press is buying into his latest shit show.
Bidens
Investigate JoeBiden WheresHunter
I lost all respect for H Biden when he chose to sleep with his deceased brothers wife..almost incestuous
DADDY WILL GIVE HIM AN ALLOWANCE!! CAN'T THIS CLOWN DO ANYTHING WITHOUT HIS FATHER?
Giving up millions over false attacks.......PLEASEEEEEEE
Why would l want to vote for Biden after all the bad news about Biden and his son, we need a true man to run this great country.
With a little bit of cocaine ...
Establishment Biden will lose...
How will they ever find someone else with ZERO qualifications!?
...and Javanka...When are they leaving?
FlyEaglesFly
So GStephanopoulos IF as you claimed, Hunter’s activities had already been looked into & there is no merit to the claim that there was anything inappropriate, WHY would he have to step down? 🤔🤔 Unless it is to avoid REAL scrutiny!
Smart move ...
Now trumps need to remove their business out of foreign countries
Joe won’t even be the Nominee! He can’t keep his stuff straight with his lying ass
JoeBiden DrBiden he shouldn’t unless the trumpsters do it too, don’t give into these corrupt cons what you say IvankaTrump DonaldJTrumpJr EricTrump
'BuyThem' family.....
Did you hear the IF Still collecting corruption money for 3 years...pretty good gig.. How many of our secrets has he SOLD
😂😂😂😂
If no corruption, why step down? Defend your position to the end. Weakness is beginning to show.
. Is he giving back all the cash? Asking for a friend.
LOL what a crooked family.
Too late! You’re sleaziness has been exposed....
This doesn’t make sense.
Why? We are being told by the corrupt media he’s doing nothing wrong.
Good, Now Jared, Ivanka, Eric & Jr., need to do the same. Remove all their foreign interests, and more.
These people are stone cold crooked
Aaa
