Treason : Hunter Biden and ex-wife Kathleen Buhle's divorce attorneys were aware of 'Romania deal' paymentsLawyers discussed how funds from 'Romania deal' would be divided during divorce
FIRST ON FOX: Divorce lawyers for Hunter Biden and his ex-wife Kathleen Buhle were aware of money hitting Hunter’s bank account from a "Romania deal," emails show, appearing to contradict Buhle's previous claims she had her "head buried in the sand" when it came to Hunter’s finances.During a press conference Wednesday, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer revealed Buhle was one of several Biden family members, including Hallie Biden, who received foreign money and that Hunter received over $1 million from Romania.
According to 2016 and 2017 emails reviewed by Fox News Digital from Hunter's abandoned laptop, divorce lawyers for Hunter and Buhle were aware of payments from a "Romania deal" and discussed how it should be divided among the two parties.
Rebekah Sullivan, who was representing Buhle during the divorce proceedings, appeared frustrated in a Dec. 15, 2016, email to Sarah Mancinelli, Hunter’s lawyer.

BIDEN'S CLAIM TO HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE OF HUNTER'S BUSINESS DEALINGS IS BECOMING HARDER TO MAINTAIN
"On the disclosures, help me understand why it is taking so long to get this basic information. Hunter's office confirmed to Kathleen a deposit of more than $120,000 into Hunter's TD account, as funds from the ‘Romania deal,'" Sullivan wrote.
"There is no reason to continue to delay providing us the TD account statements and all expenses since the end of the last statement," Sullivan added. "It is more than fair to ask for Hunter immediately to provide Kathleen with half of the $120,000, and immediate disclosure with respect to his TD account."

After Mancinelli forwarded Sullivan’s email to Hunter, he fired back that it’s "not true that my office confirmed the TD deposit" and accused his soon-to-be ex-wife of spying on him.
"Only two people knew of that and I was one of them," Hunter told his lawyer. "The only way she possibly knew of that is she has access to all of my texts and emails."

A month later, Mancinelli emailed Sullivan after consulting with Hunter Biden and his longtime business partner, Eric Schwerin, who would provide edits for her initial draft of the email to Kathleen's lawyer. Hunter gave the green light after Schwerin's edits and Mancinelli sent the email, proposing an "interim support and bill paying arrangement," which included that Buhle receive a portion of the funds from a "Romania" payment that Hunter was expecting. |
