The New York Times covered Wednesday’s revelations by the House Oversight Committee of a broad scheme of influence-peddling by Joe Biden by declaring Republicans found “no evidence of wrongdoing” by the president.
Republicans described the transactions as proof of “influence peddling” by Mr. Biden’s family, including his son Hunter Biden, and referenced some previously known, if unflattering, details of the younger Mr. Biden’s business dealings. Those included an episode in which he accepted a 2.8-carat diamond from a Chinese businessman. G.O.P. lawmakers also produced material suggesting that President Biden and his allies had at times made misleading statements in their efforts to push back aggressively against accusations of wrongdoing by Hunter Biden.
But on Wednesday, the Republicans conceded that they had yet to find evidence of a specific corrupt action Mr. Biden took in office in connection with any of the business deals his son entered into. Instead, their presentation underscored how little headway top G.O.P. lawmakers have made in finding clear evidence of questionable transactions they can tie to Mr. Biden, their chief political rival.
The existence of a complex scheme to facilitate and conceal potential bribery seems to have elicited no interest from the Times — which sets the standard for the rest of the media — beyond a chance to attack Republicans.
News reports suggest that Hunter Biden faces imminent indictment, though possibly on minor charges such as falsifying information on a gun application, failing to register as a foreign agent, or improperly reporting taxes.
