A former Obama administration staffer is accusing President Joe Biden of being involved in a “kickback scheme” concerning his son Hunter's overseas business dealings while he was vice president.
Mike McCormick, a stenographer for the White House for years, told “Fox & Friends First” the FBI has been ignoring his alarms on the matter despite his willingness to testify to the grand jury investigating Hunter.
“In February, I went to the FBI and filed one of their tips on their website. If you do that, and you're lying to them, you go to jail. I'm not lying. I'm telling the truth, and I'm not going to jail,” McCormick said Thursday. “Joe Biden is a criminal. He was conducting malfeasance in office to enrich his family. Jake Sullivan is a conspirator in that, and there's more… Obama officials involved in it, I believe.”
McCormick worked with Biden from 2011 to 2017, noted a conversation involving the vice president, now-national security adviser Jake Sullivan and the press on Air Force Two before a trip to Kyiv, Ukraine, on April 21, 2014.
“I'm sitting back there with a tape recorder. Jake Sullivan comes back and somebody asks about fracking. His answer is, well, we're bringing a lot of American assistance over for fracking. Burisma was the direct beneficiary of that fracking, and that's what I recorded, and that's in a White House transcript,” McCormick said.
“In the transcript, you don't know who Jake Sullivan is. It's a senior administration official. I'm the witness that says Jake Sullivan is the guy who said it and he should be investigated because at the time Hunter Biden was on the board of Burisma and Joe Biden is bringing American taxpayer money to enrich that company and himself and his family,” he continued.
The Obama-Biden administration later approved Congress' allocation of $50 million to Ukraine's energy market.
McCormick argued the timeline of the events suggests that Biden funneled American money overseas to “enrich” himself and his family, and used his own influence to aid his son's rookie energy career.
McCormick argued the information he has incriminates Biden, and likely more officials he worked with, in connection with the alleged scandal.
Hunter is under for suspected tax and foreign lobbying violations. The probe into Hunter's alleged violations began after suspicious activity reports (SARs) regarding suspicious foreign transactions were flagged.
In March, the Treasury Department agreed to hand over the SARs to the Republican-led House Oversight Committee.

I knew there was an Obama connection to everything that caused Biden to push the war in Ukraine. They all need to be indicted ! Hope the House Ethics or Jim Jordan tear into them!
‘I am Biden the Great and Powerful! Who are YOU? Who are YOU? …er…Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain!’
America should NOT be sending taxpayer dollars to foreign countries–PERIOD! We have enough problems at home to spend that money on: homeless veterans, infrastructure, mental health care, fighting crime, etc. But corrupt, criminal, lying politicians send it to foreigners, many of them our ENEMIES, so they can launder it, skim & receive kickbacks. THEY SHOULD ALL BE LOCKED UP, STARTING WITH OBAMA & BIDEN!
