Hunter Biden Knew Art Buyers' Identities Contrary to White House Claims
Art dealer's testimony reveals Biden knew about 70% of his art buyers, including those who made significant purchases before and after receiving presidential appointments.
- Hunter Biden's contract with art dealer Georges Berges included a clause that allowed him to know the identities of his art buyers, contradicting White House claims of anonymity.
- Georges Berges disclosed the contract details in a testimony to the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability, revealing that Biden knew about 70% of his art buyers.
- Among the buyers was Elizabeth Hirsh Naftali, who purchased Biden's art before and after receiving a presidential appointment, and Hollywood lawyer Kevin Morris, who bought $875,000 in paintings and paid Biden's $2 million federal tax bill.
- Hunter Biden asked Berges to remove the clause demanding the buyers' names from his contract in September 2021, after White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki claimed the buyers would be unknown to him.
- Hollywood producer Lanette Phillips, who introduced Hunter Biden to his art dealer, helped President Biden raise over $25,000 for his campaign.
