I am pretty sure this is not being reported by the left-wing news outlets.

Biden Admin Sold Nearly 1 Million Barrels Of Oil To Chinese State-Owned Company Tied To Hunter Biden

By Tim Pearce, Jul 7, 2022 - DailyWire

The Biden administration sold close to one million barrels of oil from the United States’ strategic reserve to a Chinese company that one of his son’s equity companies once bought a $1.7 billion stake in.

In March, the Energy Department announced that it was releasing 30 million barrels of crude oil out of the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve. The “emergency sale” was conducted to “provide a wartime bridge that will support American consumers and the global economy in response to Vladimir Putin’s war of choice against Ukraine.”

The Energy Department received 126 bids, and the department chose 12 to receive a portion of the offering. One of those 12 companies was Unipec America, Inc. and it was chosen to receive 950,000 barrels of crude oil in the “price-competitive sale.”

While the sale went largely unnoticed at the time, The Washington Free Beacon pointed out on Thursday that Unipec is a branch of the China Petrochemical Corporation, also known as Sinopec and controlled by the Chinese government. The revelation comes after a Wednesday Reuters report revealed that the Biden administration had recently released five million more barrels of crude oil from the strategic reserve to other countries. China received about one million barrels of the latest release.

Sinopec has a prior history with the Bidens. In 2013, Hunter Biden co-founded the private equity firm BHR Partners. In 2015, BHR acquired a $1.7 billion stake in Sinopec Marketing. In 2017, Biden took a minority stake in BHR, purchasing a 10% stake through an LLC he solely owned called Skaneateles.

Last year, an attorney for Hunter Biden told The New York Times that Hunter “no longer holds any interest, directly or indirectly, in either BHR or Skaneateles.” As recently as March, records in China’s National Credit Information Publicity System showed that Skaneateles still retained its 10% stake in BHR. Business records in Washington, D.C., still listed Hunter as the sole owner of Skaneateles at the time.

It is not clear whether the Chinese records were accurate or needed to be updated.

The revelation about the March sale to Sinopec has already began sparking calls for investigation. Daniel Turner, the executive director of the energy advocate group Power The Future, said that the March deal warrants investigation.

“The Biden Administration sent critical resources to the communist Chinese, including one firm which has the president’s own son Hunter as an investor, at the same time Americans are struggling at the pump,” Turner said in a statement. “A special prosecutor should be appointed and Congress needs to investigate because the American people deserve the truth and they’re not getting it from the White House.”

My message to the companies running gas stations and setting prices at the pump is simple: this is a time of war and global peril.

Bring down the price you are charging at the pump to reflect the cost you’re paying for the product. And do it now.

I have to take anything the RayNard crowd posts with a grain of salt... their minds have been tainted.

It's got a weird sort of contagiousness to it, it's weird.

Any time I try to search it, it's all the same sh*tty sites they post from, so you can't really cross reference anything.

They just preface it all with "mainstream media isn't covering this"...

Gee, I wonder f*cking why.

It is easy to find facts that some strategic oil reserve has been sold off. It is easy to find what countries it has been sold to. I have only found articles stating strategic oil reserve has been sold to China. Many are referencing a Reuters article incorrectly. The Reuters article never mentions China, but rather Asia. Could someone please post a link to an article that is not just an opinion article and gives out verifiable facts? I imagine I am wrong and have just not found the information source.

It must exist BGZ. Honest astute men here are saying it does. It goes without question that they have facts to back this up. I ask you why would they knowingly perpetuate a lie? Look at it logically. Can they really be so ignorant and hateful that they would lie about Biden in an attempt to discredit him? I think the answer must be no. If the answer is yes then they are evil scum of the earth.

Imagine if Trump did this. Every news outlet would be blasting it out and saying he was treasonous and that he needed to be impeached... again.

Not judging you but the following reply is rather accusatory, jumping to unfounded conclusions without doing a little research on your own.

Some rather strong passive aggressive words. Truth is there. It's out there if you want to do some due diligence and search for it. The facts back up the claims on this topic, but folks don't like to or can't handle the truth. It's an easier and calmer way to just suckle the nipple of what they want you to feed you.

Oh... so the facts don't support your preconceived little orchestrated play? You got called out based on facts then do the "but Trump" thing? I'm pretty sure Trump had no play in this.

Your reply? "I don't give a flying f*ck whether you are right or wrong."

I thought you were logical and would base things on facts. I guess I was wrong. Noted: bgz doesn't believe in facts.

I would suggest you re-read your reply and reflect on how disjointed and childish it sounds. Maybe hold your breath until you turn purple, I'm sure that would prove your point (whatever it may be).

"You idiots seem to have forgotten a piece.
What piece might that be? Please elaborate.

If the info didn't come from a sh*tty wordpress site (SWS) then it isn't real!!!
