Joe Biden paid his son’s bills for prostitutes – media
Hunter Biden reportedly spent over $30,000 on Eastern European prostitutes,
with his bank blocking transfers to Russian addresses
Data found on Hunter Biden’s laptop reveal that the US president’s son spent over $30,000 on escorts from a “model agency” with offices in Kiev and Moscow, the Washington Examiner reported on Monday.
According to the report, Hunter Biden racked up his five-figure bill between November 2018 and March 2019, in between Joe Biden’s terms as vice president and president of the US. Throughout this period, Joe Biden wired his son a total of $100,000 to help pay his bills, although it is unclear whether the senior Biden knew what his son was spending the money on.
Text messages on the hard drive of Hunter’s laptop purportedly showed conversations with ‘Eva,’ an employee of an “exclusive model agency" named ‘UberGFE’. In one February 2019 exchange, Hunter told Eva that he had problems wiring her money due to her use of a Russian .ru email address.
Hunter said that this address was “flagged” by his bank, and resulted in his account being frozen.
Prior to the exchange with Eva, Joe Biden sent Hunter $5,000 via CashApp, three hours before Hunter filmed himself arguing with an escort over payment. With Hunter seemingly unable to meet the $9,500 charge for 16 hours in the girl’s company, she messaged him looking for the remaining balance for six weeks, until the exchange with ‘Eva’, the report alleges.
Between November and March, ‘Eva’ reportedly directed Hunter to make payments to accounts using .ru email addresses 11 times. During this time, Hunter also searched for "dc russian escorts” on his iPhone, the article claims.
UberGFE operates a website advertising its services in the US, London, Paris and Dubai. According to the Washington Examiner, an older version of the site used to list addresses in Moscow, St. Petersburg and Kiev. The site was reportedly created by developers in Kiev.
At the time of his dalliances with the prostitutes, Hunter Biden was sitting on the board of Burisma, a Ukrainian energy firm that paid him up to $50,000 per month despite his lack of experience in the industry.
According to emails and text messages obtained from his laptop, which he left behind in a Delaware computer repair shop at some point before October 2020, Hunter peddled access to his father with clients in Ukraine and China. During his father’s vice presidency, Hunter struck deals where the Biden family stood to make tens of millions of dollars “based on introductions alone,” and others involving kickbacks to “the big guy” – an apparent reference to Joe Biden.
When the contents of the laptop were first reported on by the New York Post weeks before the 2020 presidential election, the Biden campaign initially wrote off the reports as part of a “disinformation” campaign, potentially involving Russia. However, the computer’s authenticity has subsequently been independently verified, and the New York Times and Washington Post now admit that the younger Biden’s emails are genuine.
Hunter Biden did not refute the contents of the Washington Examiner’s story, instead messaging the newspaper to say “what’s wrong with you?”
Ghislaine Maxwell sentence – Jeffrey Epstein’s madam jailed
for 20 years for grooming girls

DISGRACED socialite Ghislaine Maxwell has today been jailed for 20 years for decades of abuse after grooming dozens of girls for twisted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
The 60-year-old lured vulnerable teenagers for vile multi-millionaire Epstein to abuse at his various luxurious properties - with the pair described as "partners in crime".
In what was described as the "trial of the century", the jury heard how Maxwell snared and "served up" girls as young as 14 for Epstein - and even joined in the abuse herself.
The prosecutor said Maxwell was a “sophisticated predator who knew exactly what she was doing” who “ran the same playbook again and again and again”.
She was convicted of five out of six counts of sex trafficking by a jury in December.
Today, Maxwell - dressed in a blue prison uniform, a white mask and with her ankles shackled - was handed a hefty sentence at a Manhattan federal court by Judge Alison Nathan after her lawyers called for a maximum of five years.
The socialite continually played with her hair, adjusted her mask and took sips from her water bottle as at least three of her siblings watched on in the crowded court.
Epstein victims Sarah Ransome, Elizabeth Stein, Annie Farmer and the accuser known as "Kate" were also present in the courtroom and confronted Maxwell.
Wearing a prison-issued uniform, Maxwell apologised to her victims, saying she hopes her sentencing will allow them "peace and finality".
She told the court meeting Epstein was her "greatest regret".
Maxwell said: "I believe that Jeffrey Epstein was a manipulative, cunning and controlling man who lived a profoundly compartmentalised life and fooled all of those in his orbit."
Looking at her victims, she added: "I am sorry for the pain that you experienced."
Speaking at the hearing, a victim known only as "Kate" said Maxwell was "not sorry and would do it again".
She added: "Ghislaine's lack of remorse and blatant refusal to take responsibility for her crimes towards us is her final insult.
"Someone who even had a difficult or abusive father does not excuse sex trafficking of minors.
"A lack of remorse or responsibility from Ghislaine is exactly how we can tell that she doesn't think what she did was wrong."
Maxwell has been described as Epstein's "madam" or "pimp" who would use money and charisma to lure in young girls - often promising them jobs and a lavish new life before he abused them.
And she is alleged to have been the one who introduced Prince Andrew to Epstein before the Duke allegedly had sex with 17-year-old sex slave Virginia Robert - a claim he strongly denies.
"For me, and for so many others, you opened the door to hell," said Virginia in a victim impact statement.
"And then, Ghislaine, like a wolf in sheep’s clothing, you used your femininity to betray us, and you led us all through it."
There is much more to this story on the Scottish Sun.
