America First Legal (AFL) has released photographs depicting Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden, during the Obama-Biden Administration. These images were obtained through litigation against the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). The photos reveal interactions between then-Vice President Biden, Hunter, and Chinese business associates and officials, including President Xi Jinping. AFL stated that lawyers for Presidents Biden and Obama delayed the release of these images until after Election Day.

The photographs were initially scheduled for release on October 23, 2024, under the Presidential Records Act. However, an extension invoked by legal representatives postponed their availability.

In 2013, Joe Biden visited Asia as Vice President. During this trip to Beijing, he is shown introducing Hunter to China's President Xi Jinping and then-Vice President Li Yuanchao in the newly-released photos. Additionally, meetings with BHR Partners' CEO Jonathan Li and Managing Partner Ming Xue are depicted.

These photos support findings from the House Oversight Committee's investigation into Hunter Biden's arrangements for his father to meet BHR executives during the 2013 China visit. The committee reported that "Mr. Li sought—and received—access to Vice President Biden’s political power," facilitated by Hunter's connections.

As Vice President, Joe Biden reportedly wrote recommendation letters for Jonathan Li’s children based on testimony from Devon Archer and emails found on Hunter’s laptop. The committee concluded that the Biden family benefited from dealings with BHR.

Despite this release, 182 out of 313 processed photographs remain withheld by NARA at the request of the current administration. AFL intends to continue pursuing these records.

Michael Ding of America First Legal commented: “Even while President Biden has pardoned his son, Hunter...more evidence comes out each day showing how his family leveraged Joe Biden’s even longer career in public office for private gain. America First Legal will not stop fighting to uncover the full story of the Biden Family’s corruption.”
