FIRST ON FOX: Explosive new information has emerged regarding Hunter Biden’s former business partner, Eric Schwerin. According to records, Schwerin visited the Obama White House and then-Vice President Joe Biden’s residence an astonishing 36 times between 2009 and 2016. This revelation makes him a prime target for the House Oversight Committee’s ongoing investigation into Hunter Biden’s foreign business dealings.
As we previously reported at Fox News Digital, Schwerin was already known to have visited the White House and vice presidential residence at least 27 times during Joe Biden’s tenure as vice president. However, a more in-depth review of records has shown that the actual number was even higher.
Schwerin, who was the founding partner and managing director of Hunter Biden’s now-defunct firm, Rosemont Seneca Partners, was appointed by then-President Obama to the Commission for the Preservation of America’s Heritage Abroad in early 2015. He was later reappointed to the commission in January 2017.
Emails from Hunter Biden have shed light on Schwerin’s close ties to the Biden family. In one email, Hunter reveals that Schwerin requested the appointment the day after the 2008 election.
But the real questions arise from the nature of these visits. Could some of them fall under the category of “”purely personal guests,”” thus not subject to voluntary disclosure? This exemption could potentially inflate the number of visits even further.
One of Schwerin’s visits, in November 2010, involved a meeting with Joe Biden himself in the West Wing. Additionally, Schwerin attended Joe Biden’s residence at least 15 times for various holiday receptions, including one on December 12, 2015, just days after Biden’s controversial trip to Ukraine, where he threatened to withhold aid unless the country fired its top prosecutor.
Schwerin’s attendance at these events raises eyebrows, especially given his connections to Hunter Biden and the now-infamous Burisma board. In fact, he was present at a dinner with Hunter’s business associates, including a top Burisma executive, further debunking claims that the elder Biden was not involved in his son’s business dealings.
Furthermore, Schwerin met with several of Biden’s aides during the Obama-Biden administration, adding to the suspicion surrounding his numerous visits.
The House Oversight Committee’s investigation into Hunter Biden’s foreign business ties continues, and with Eric Schwerin now in the spotlight, more revelations may come to light. Stay tuned to Fox News Digital for the latest updates on this developing story.
