Has Joe Biden been pulled into Hunter grand jury probe? Witness is asked to identify 'the big guy' who would get kick-back in deal with Chinese energy giant after former associate claimed it was the President By HARRIET ALEXANDER FOR DAILYMAIL.COM PUBLISHED: 4 April 2022

A grand jury examining Hunter Biden's tax affairs has heard from a witness who was asked about the identity of 'the big guy', mentioned in an email discussing a potential business deal with a Chinese firm.

The question was asked at a secret hearing in Wilmington, Delaware - although what the unidentified witness said in response has not been reported. 

It stems from a March 2017 email discussing a joint venture with a now-defunct Chinese energy company, CEFC China Energy Co. 

A former Hunter-associate previously claimed the phrase 'the big guy' referred to President Biden himself, sparking calls for him to face a conspiracy probe.

He has always denied all allegations of wrongdoing, with Hunter facing questions about why he was accepting work from energy firms despite no knowledge of the area. 

The latest twist in the Hunter saga was reported in the New York Post on Monday, four years after he was first put under investigation.

It follows the Washington Post and The New Times also confirming the authenticity of the contents of the laptop Hunter left at a Delaware repair show.
