Jim Biden and Qatar Are Closer Than You Might’ve Thought…

James ‘Jim’ Biden, brother of Joe Biden, has deeper links to the Qatari government than previously disclosed. Fund manager Michael Lewitt, a former business partner of Jim Biden, testified that Jim directly partnered with one company owned partly by Qatar. A second company part-owned by Qatar backed the loans that disgraced hospital chain Americore paid the Biden brother to facilitate.

Lewitt, Jim Biden, and Platinum Group CEO Amer Rustom courted numerous potential funders for Americore in the Middle East. Meanwhile, Qatar sought friends in the West after being sanctioned by its neighbors for sponsoring terrorism. It became the main focus of Jim Biden’s efforts, according to an Americore executive.

“My family could provide a wealth of introductions and business opportunities at the highest levels that I believe would be worthy of the interest of His Excellency,” Jim Biden wrote in a 2017 draft letter to an official at Qatar’s sovereign wealth fund.

Implying his influential brother had a stake in these dealings, he added: “On behalf of the Biden family, I welcome your interest here.”

AMERICORE.

Jim Biden confirmed he “agreed to go to Qatar, Saudi Arabia and China (at my own expense)” in another email addressed to Grant White, Americore’s CEO.

Americore paid roughly $600,000 to Jim Biden. $200,000 of these payments were transferred to Joe Biden, supposedly to repay a loan.

Jim Biden frequently used his brother to promote Americore. He also “spoke of plans to give his brother equity in Americore… and install him on its board.” Americore collapsed in 2019 partly due to his failure to raise money in the Middle East.

Its hospitals suffered dangerous shortages, and it faces criminal proceedings related to $100 million in Medicare fraud.

Jim Biden Used Brother Joe to Promote Hospital Chain That Collapsed Amid $100m Medicare Fraud Scandal.

Joe Biden’s brother James ‘Jim’ Biden used the Joe Biden name to promote himself and the interests of Americore, a company running a chain of rural hospitals that collapsed in disgrace in 2019. An investigation has revealed that Jim Biden’s involvement with Americore was much more significant than previously reported. He even personally fired the company’s Chief Financial Officer after he refused to provide illegitimate statements for an investor pitch.

Americore now faces criminal proceedings for Medicare fraud totaling around $100 million. One suspect has already pleaded guilty to receiving kickbacks, with Joe Biden turning out to be critical to establishing Jim Biden within Americore. His biography boasted he was “the closest personal advisor to his brother.”

Jim Biden frequently suggested his ties to Joe Biden could benefit prospective business partners and his brother. “This would be a perfect platform to expose my Brothers [sic] team to [your] protocol,” he wrote to one CEO. Another person Jim Biden pitched said he claimed his brother was sitting with him while they spoke on the phone.

A former Americore executive said Jim Biden claimed his brother could promote Americore as a successful model for rural healthcare in his 2020 campaign. He also said it “would help his brother get elected if it were to take off and go.”

Jim Biden also “spoke of plans to give his brother equity in Americore… and install him on its board.” This did not happen, but Joe Biden did benefit at least indirectly from Americore. Within hours of the company transferring $200,000 to Jim Biden, he wrote a $200,000 check to his brother.

Jim Biden’s failure to raise money for the company in the Middle East — Jim Biden drafted emails to Qatari investors “[o]n behalf of the Biden family” — paved the way for its collapse.

The hospital chain suffered shortages of staff and critical supplies, endangering and possibly killing patients. It also stopped paying employees’ health insurance premiums despite continuing to deduct them from their paychecks. The House Oversight Committee will interview Jim Biden on February 21st.
