Note: Please be sure to read JC’s comments under this post, as he is all over this matter.
I learned from Huffington Post that Vice President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter, has an impressive résumé, as follows:
Hunter Biden currently serves as Chairman of the Board of World Food Program USA and as a Director on the not-for-profit boards of the Truman National Security Project, The Center for National Policy and the US Global Leadership Coalition. Mr. Biden serves as managing partner at Rosemont Seneca Partners, Chairman at Rosemont Seneca Advisors, is Counsel to Boies, Schiller, Flexner, LLP, a national law firm based in New York, and is a Director of CAYOVA a next generation social networking site.
Mr. Biden is also an Adjunct Professor at Georgetown University’s Masters Program in the school of foreign service. Mr. Biden is a member of the CSIS Executive Council on Development and the President’s Advisory Board for Catholic Charities in Washington D.C. From 2006-2009, Mr. Biden served on the Board of Directors of Amtrak, serving as Vice Chairman from 2007-2009. Mr. Biden was honored to serve as an Honorary Co-Chair of the 2009 Presidential Inaugural Committee and to have served in the Jesuit Volunteer Corps. Previously, Mr. Biden was a founding member of the law firm, Oldaker, Biden and Belair, LLP, was appointed by President Clinton to serve as Executive Director of E-Commerce Policy Coordination under Secretary of Commerce William Daley and was Senior Vice President at MBNA America Bank. He is also a member of the bar in the State of Connecticut, the District of Columbia, the U.S. Supreme Court and the U.S. Court of Federal Claims. Mr. Biden received a bachelor’s degree from Georgetown University and a J.D. from Yale Law School.
Add to that his recent appointment to Burisma Holdings, the largest private natural gas producer in Ukraine.
The guy is juiced. He’s connected to the Vice President of the United States, and has been appointed to the board of a company in an area of immediate interest in US foreign policy, a place where there has been insurgencies, riots, a violent coup d’état, massacres, where NATO wants to expand, where Russia’s security interests are threatened and a potential confrontation between two very powerful countries is an ongoing backdrop. It is not unlike George W. Bush shilling for Enron when his Daddy was president. It is not kid-juice, but rather daddy-juice, that secures these appointments.
Newsworthy? Nah. I got hold of this tidbit via Olga75 on Twitter. Otherwise, [crickets] all the way up and down the Google.

Update: One almost gets the feeling that, outside the United States and in the inner tubes exists a real news media. This is from a Buzzfeed story:
Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov told BuzzFeed that Russia saw no conflict of interest in Joe Biden working to wean Ukraine off Russian gas – which makes up about 60 percent of the country’s energy supply – while his son worked in the Ukrainian gas industry.
“Anyway, as everyone knows, there’s no gas in Ukraine,” he added. “The gas in Ukraine is Russian.”
Factor that into JC’s comments below in which Burisma appears to be nothing more than a shell – no gas fields, no real company, Cypriot ties and a connection to the former Polish president and the current US Vice President. Burisma and I have one thing in common: Both of us got our domain names from GoDaddy.

This has CIA and/or fracking written all over it.

Part of the strategy of western oligarchs/oilgarchs is to drive a wedge between Ukraine and Russia. They are battling over oil and gas pricing right now (long story), and essentially Ukraine is challenging Russia’s pricing structure, and has not been paying it’s bill to the Russians. Russia has just stated that they will not deliver any more gas/oil to Ukraine if they haven’t paid all past due, and pay for June’s oil up front. So the pipelines to Ukraine will get shut down. A lot of the gas/oil is pass-through, meaning it is meant for other countries. (you’ll never find this story in mainstream western press…)
If the situation gets dire enough, the western oilgarchs can greatly minimize the amount of energy Russia supplies to Ukraine and Europe, and by doing so, they create the need for fracking. Europe so far has been extremely resistant to fracking, partially due to the abundance of Russian energy, also because of environmental concerns. So, they create a crisis, and the frackers can move in. Enter Hunter Biden to assist in the mobilization of western oilgarchs into Ukraine, and the rest of Europe, given his intimate connections to the powers-that-be.
And because energy is such a strategic resource, it only makes sense that the CIA (remember Director Brennan was in Ukraine shortly before Joe Biden showed up) would find ways to infiltrate businesses and do double duty (Air America style): find a way to move funds through an energy business to the Ukrainian military without having to go normal channels.
If you go look up Dymytro Yarosh (the head of Ukraine’s Right Sector neo-nazis) at Wikipedia you’ll come across a statement he recently made:
In any thinking person’s foreign policy playbook, Yarosh has just described classical fascism: private businesses directly funding the military. So how do the neo-nazis plan on funding a civil war with eastern Ukraine, and/or battling Russia? With energy dollars from fracking and other current sources, funneled through energy companies owned by oilgarchs, paid directly to the military. The hell with fighting a war the normal way, having a government pay for it.
Oh, and yeah, Yarosh’s wikipedia quote? I’ve been doing a lot of research, pulled the quote from TASS and did the wikipedia entry myself a few weeks ago, knowing that it was going to prove important.

Ok, so a quick google-up comes up with this:
And Hunter Biden was appointed to Burisma during daddies trip.
And on the CIA front, this:
It’s all so transparently corrupt and evil. This took 10 minutes of googling. If I could stomach it, I’d flesh out some more, but the sun is out, and it’s a beautiful day…

Ok, just one more. Devon Archer also, a good friend of the Bidens and political bundler to John Kerry and others, was appointed to Burisma, too. Archer has a very interesting pedigree. Here is just one of Archer’s jobs, Director at DiamondBack Tactical:
Who does Archer work with there? Stephen R. Kappes, Chairman. Who is Kappes?
And we thought Reagan and his little Iran-Contra maneuver was tricky. That was nothing compared to what the Bidens are cooking up.

And there is a question on whether or Burisma is a legit business or not:
Oh, and who is taking a junket to Cyprus in about a week?
Might Biden stop in to see how Burisma is doing? Bet there’s a nice sheltered CIA station operating out of its office…

Thanks JC. A wealth of good information there, many connections, and perhaps a shell company – if the company is but a front, can we again say CIA?
You’ve done lots of research here. thanks.

Interesting too that for Hunter the Burisma job could well just be a cover for an intel operation, and for Joe Biden, the job of VP the same. Nobody is as they are presented to us.
