Fox News White House correspondent Peter Doocy questioned press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on Tuesday over a backup voicemail recording that surfaced from Hunter Biden’s laptop computer showing that Joe Biden spoke with his son Hunter about Hunter’s business dealings with a Chinese oil giant, even though the career Democrat politician has repeatedly said that he has never talked to his son about his foreign business dealings.

The Daily Mail reported that Joe Biden called Hunter on Dec. 12, 2018, after reading a New York Times article that detailed Hunter’s connections with the Chinese oil firm CEFC.


Joe Biden left a voicemail for Hunter Biden:


As reporting on Hunter Biden’s foreign business dealings have come to light, Joe Biden has on a number occasions denied ever having spoken to his son about them, both directly and through his press spokespersons to members of the press who have asked about the matter.

Peter Doocy on Tuesday asked Karine Jean-Pierre: “Why is there a voicemail of the president talking to his son about his overseas business dealings, if the president has said he’s never spoken to his son about his overseas businesses?”

The White House press secretary refused to answer Doocy’s question, saying, “We’re not, from this podium — I’m not going to talk about alleged materials from the laptop. … It’s not happening. I refer you to his son’s representative.”
