Another Burisma-type situation: 1. Pay a Biden to sit on your board 2. Hope that will influence regulators to treat you well. In 2000, then-Vice President Al Gore and HUD Secretary Andrew Cuomo announced a new $2 million partnership with NorthPoint Communications to help “bridge the digital divide” by providing broadband Internet access to more than 800 low-income urban neighborhoods. Looking for political juice to help it win the licenses needed from the FCC for telecom development, NorthPoint invited Sara Biden to join its board, along with Hunter Biden. At the time, Hunter served as executive director of e-commerce policy at the Commerce Department, a Clinton-appointed position. It’s not known if his Aunt Sara did any lobbying for Northpoint, but Federal Election Commission records show that in 2000 she gave $1,200 to Northpoint’s PAC – People for Digital Competition. Sara Biden does not appear in federal lobbying disclosure records as a registered lobbyist. Northpoint filed bankruptcy in 2001. Tom

Secrecy of the President's Family 'Doc' Raises the Question: Are We Getting the Full Story on Biden's Cognitive Health? By Paul Sperry realclearinvestigations.com For the next five months, Dr. Kevin C. O’Connor will be one of the most powerful people in the world. The White House physician is the chief medical arbiter of Joe Biden’s fitness to continue as commander in chief in a war-torn world until the end of his term in January. Even as the public has long expressed concern about the 81-year-old president’s mental capacities and Democratic Party leaders pressured Biden to drop his bid for a second term, O’Connor has repeatedly given his boss a clean bill of health. Growing numbers of people are questioning his medical judgment because O’Connor is much more than a doctor to the president. Records show that he is also a longtime friend, personal adviser, political donor, former paid campaign worker, and even a business consultant to the Biden family. A former White House physician who attended to both Barack Obama and Donald Trump claims O’Connor has been trying to “cover up” Biden’s deteriorating condition to appease the first family, with whom he’s formed a tight bond over the past 15 years.
