CNN host Erin Burnett has conceded that the over $1 million that was revealed to have been sent to multiple members of President Joe Biden's family from Hunter Biden's dealings with a Chinese energy firm does not "look good."

On her show, Erin Burnett OutFront, the anchor sooke with guest Ryan Goodman about the evidence revealed by House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer on Thursday showing money being funneled from China to Biden-owned bank accounts. "On a certain level, just as a layperson, you hear this and it doesn't sound good," she said.





"There's a guy whose name is John Robinson Walker. He gets three million dollars from a Chinese space company and proceeds to wire it out to a bunch of people named Biden, one of whom is Hunter Biden, another one is a company that belongs to the president's brother James Biden, and another amount of money to Beau Biden's widow, Hallie," Burnett continued.

"So again, from a layperson, that doesn't look good," the host, who is a former MSNBC anchor, reiterated before asking Goodman if the evidence was "damaging legally."

"Not necessarily damaging legally like when I look at all of the facts alleged in the four-page memo, it looks potentially unethical," Goodman, a professor at NYU School of Law replied. "But it's difficult to match it up with any illegality or crime."

As the New York Post reported, a Chinese Communist Party-backed energy conglomerate CEFC China Energy, wired $3 million to Biden family associate Rob Walker. Of that money, Walker sent $1 million to several members of the Biden family, just weeks after Joe Biden finished his vice presidential term.

Rep. Comer's investigation revealed that an account associated with Hunter Biden received $610,692 from the deal, his uncle James Biden got $360,000. The widow of Beau Biden and affair partner of Hunter, Hallie Biden, got $25,000, and another unknown Biden was sent $70,000.
