U.S. District Judge Tanya S. Chutkan, who will oversee former President Donald Trump’s 2020 election case, labored at Boies, Schiller, & Flexner, a high-powered Washington, DC, legislation agency, at the identical time Hunter Biden worked for the agency as a lobbyist.
According to Chutkan’s official bio, the Obama administration appointed Chutkan to the United States District Court for the District of Columbia in June 2014. Before her appointment, she worked at Boies, Schiller, & Flexner from 2002 to 2014 in litigation and white collar prison protection.
“For a lot of people, I seem to check a lot of boxes: immigrant, woman, Black, Asian. Your qualifications are always going to be subject to criticism and you have to develop a thick skin,” Chutkan said in a February 2022 profile posted by the federal judiciary.
Hunter Biden labored at Boies, Schiller, & Flexner from 2009 to 2014, overlapping Chutkan’s timeframe at the agency for 5 years. Hunter Biden lobbied primarily for schools, hospitals, and tech companies, the Associated Press reported.
Hunter Biden maintained his place at the agency whilst his father grew to become vice chairman in 2008. He left the legislation agency in 2014, the identical yr he grew to become a board member of Burisma Holding for $83,000 a month, and one yr after co-founding BHR Partners, a Chinese state-backed funding fund, with Devon Archer and Jonathan Li.
BHR Partners was fashioned 12 days after Hunter had joined his then-vice president father aboard Air Force Two for a state go to to Beijing.
Archer testified Monday that Joe Biden was placed on speakerphone throughout Hunter Biden’s enterprise conferences over 20 instances. One of these cellphone calls got here throughout a gathering with Li in China.
