Former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi attacked Joe Biden's son's overseas business ties in an RNC speech rife with debunked conspiracies Tuesday night.
"For Joe Biden, it's been the land of opportunism, not opportunity," Bondi said.
She said Biden "has been writing the textbook on abuse of power for 40 years." She lambasted Hunter Biden's former position on the board of Ukrainian company Burisma, saying that he had "only had one qualification that mattered: He was the son of a man in charge of distributing US aid to Ukraine."
Bondi also made misleading claims about Biden's push to oust Ukrainian prosecutor Viktor Shokin, making the unfounded accusation that Biden sought to have Shokin removed to halt an investigation into Burisma. Ukrainian activists and European and American diplomats had sought Shokin's ouster before Biden intervened.
Trump and his allies have repeatedly made unfounded and false claims to allege that the former vice president and his son acted corruptly in Ukraine. Bondi made no mention of the reality that Trump was impeached by the House for attempting to pressure Ukraine's president to investigate the Bidens over Hunter Biden's role on the board of Burisma, a Ukrainian energy company.
Hunter Biden was only briefly featured at the Democratic National Convention last week, in a video along with his sister Ashley Biden introducing their father ahead of his Thursday night speech.
Hunter Biden in October 2019 said he used "poor judgment" in serving on the board of a Ukrainian gas company because it has become a political liability for his father. But there is no evidence of wrongdoing on the part of either Biden, and no evidence Joe Biden has profited from his son's business dealings abroad.
Bondi's speech accusing Biden of nepotism was followed by a video that featured Trump's daughter Ivanka and daughter-in-law Lara, and then a speech from Trump's daughter Tiffany. Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump are also part of the RNC's speaking lineup this week — Trump Jr. spoke on Monday night, while Eric Trump will speak later Tuesday night.
The two are high-level executives in the Trump Organization, which has benefitted financially from Trump's presidency.
