The Republican uses the word "launder" specifically because it sounds nefarious. "Shell companies laundering money" sounds worse than "Hunter Biden's law firm paid one of his kids a couple hundred bucks." Which describes one of those "10 family members": A source with direct access to the bank records provided to Oversight tells The Post that one of the president's grandchildren, then under 18, received $200 and $500 (several months apart) from Owasco PC, the LLC that was Hunter Biden's law firm. In total, Hunter's child received $9,000 in 10 payments from the firm over two years, according to the available records — most $500 or less. Why isn't clear, but this does not seem like the traditional understanding of "money laundering."
Other payments to family members include those loan repayments to Joe Biden and payments to Hallie Biden, Hunter's former sister-in-law with whom he was "sharing expenses," according to a statement made to NBC News earlier this year. That is not evidence of a serious crime...
