Ron Klain claims the president thinks his son ‘did the right thing’ but is not involved in probe of his family’s business ties

  • The White House has denied any communication with the Justice Department on the ongoing federal investigation into Hunter Biden’s business dealings
  • The probe, being conducted by a Trump administration holdover in Delaware, is reportedly heating up with grand jury testimony about Hunter’s work in Ukraine 
  • Klain’s statements come as the White House faces a deluge of ethical scrutiny related to the president’s son’s foreign business operations 
  • It was also reported last week that entities linked to Hunter Biden and his uncle James Biden got nearly $5 million across 14 months beginning in 2017
  • The payments reportedly came from a Chinese energy firm with strong links to Beijing’s government
