After Senator Chuck Grassley disclosed that the foreign national who allegedly bribed Joe Biden $5 million while he was Vice President had seventeen recordings of his conversations with Joe and Hunter Biden, the White House is in flat-out denial mode.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was asked by a reporter at a briefing; “Senator Chuck Grassley made some statements yesterday on the Senate floor, saying that this foreign national on the FBI 1023 form apparently has 15 recorded conversations with Hunter Biden and claims to have two with the President. Is there — is the White House aware of any recordings in which the President might be on tape speaking to a Burisma executive?”
KJP fired back; “So the President spoke to this. I think he was shouted a question about this at the Thursday press conference. And I’m just going to quote him and say, “It’s malarkey.”
KJP was referencing when Biden was asked if there were tapes that he accepted bribes by a NY Post reporter. Biden didn’t call the allegations malarky, but instead chuckled at the question and shook his head as he walked away without saying anything.
