DoJ is concealing documents that lay bare Hunter and Jim Biden's payoffs with ... trends now
The Department of Justice is trying to prevent disclosure of 400 pages of sensitive documents on Hunter and Jim Biden's dealings with China, Russia and Ukraine – by pretending they don't exist.
Colorado lawyer Kevin Evans sued the department in March after it failed to comply with his request for records on the Bidens' dealings under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA).

He said government lawyers first admitted in court to having at least 400 pages of 'potentially relevant' documents – but are now trying to get away with saying they can 'neither confirm nor deny' the existence of any records that match his request.

Biden's administration is able to veto the release, but must decide by February whether to invoke executive privilege to keep them hidden until 2029.
The records date back to 2014 and include 69 images and 260 email messages mentioning Burisma.
Evans' case has its next hearing in January.
The Greenwood Village, Colorado-based lawyer said he filed his FOIA request in November 2020 after reading about the Bidens' overseas business dealings, and the Justice Department strung him along for almost two years before he eventually sued them.
