Biden aides refuse to comment on first family FARA exposure after American charged for work with same China firm

The White House refused to comment Tuesday on the potential legal exposure for President Biden, first son Hunter and first brother James Biden after a US citizen was criminally charged for working as an unregistered agent of the same Chinese firm that paid the Biden family.

“What’s the White House’s take on potential [Foreign Agents Registration Act] liability for the first family and the president?” The Post asked White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan at a NATO summit in Lithuania.

“I’ve not seen that and cannot comment on it,” Sullivan deflected during a briefing.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, who took reporter questions after Sullivan, did not provide additional comment or immediately respond to an emailed inquiry.

Gal Luft was charged Monday by the Manhattan US attorney’s office for allegedly violating FARA by accepting from CEFC China Energy at least $700,000 to his Maryland-based Institute for the Analysis of Global Security think tank, in exchange for cohosting conferences and attempting to influence a 2016 Donald Trump campaign adviser.
