Joe Biden called his son Hunter in late 2018 to discuss a New York Times article detailing the younger Biden’s dealings with a Chinese oil tycoon accused of economic crimes – telling him, “I think you’re clear,” according to a report Monday.

The voicemail, discovered on a cell phone backup contained on Hunter Biden’s infamous discarded laptop, would appear to contradict President Biden’s continued denial that he ever talked with his disgraced 52-year-old son about his overseas business transactions — and was aware they could be improper.

“Hey pal, it’s Dad,” Joe Biden said, the Daily Mail reported. “It’s 8:15 on Wednesday night. If you get a chance just give me a call. Nothing urgent. I just wanted to talk to you.”

Biden then made his intentions clear.

“I thought the article released online, it’s going to be printed tomorrow in the Times, was good,” Biden continued. “I think you’re clear. And anyway if you get a chance give me a call, I love you.”

Joe Biden reportedly spoke to Hunter about his dealings with a Chinese oil tycoon accused of economic crimes.

The voicemail was discovered on a cell phone backup contained on Hunter Biden’s infamous discarded laptop.

During a campaign appearance in Iowa in September 2019, Joe Biden said, “I have never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings.” His former press secretary, Jen Psaki, and his chief of staff, Ron Klain, have both repeatedly echoed that sentiment.

The unearthed voice message renewed calls for a probe of the now-president’s handling and knowledge of his son’s overseas dealings.

“Joe Biden said he ‘never spoke’ with Hunter about his business dealings. That is simply not true. We need to know what Joe Biden knew and when he knew it,” Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY), the No. 3 Republican in the House of Representatives, told The Post Monday.

“This voicemail is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the evidence mounting against the Biden Crime Family. When Republicans take back Congress, we will use our Congressional power of oversight to uncover the truth for every American as a matter of national security.”

The Biden voicemail followed a Times report on Dec. 12, 2018, detailing Hunter’s dealings with Ye Jianming, a “fast-rising” Chinese oil tycoon who headed CEFC China Energy Company in 2016 before being arrested two years later amid allegations of economic crimes.

A leaked audio take allegedly proves Joe Biden know about Hunter Biden's foreign business dealings.

The leaked audio tape allegedly of Hunter Biden has not been independently verified, and does not prove his father knew about his business deals.

On Oct 27, The National Pulse released an article claiming that they had exclusively accessed an audio recording of Hunter Biden from his laptop, and in the recording one can hear Biden discussing business deals with a "spy chief of China" and that his father, President-elect Joe Biden knew about his foreign dealings. The claim was further boosted by President Donald Trump's son Donald Trump Jr. on twitter who said, "Audio evidence of Hunter Biden admitting to being in a partnership with the “Spy Chief of China” and he admits his father knew."

The Media Bias/Fact Check website describes The National Pulse as "questionable based on extreme right-wing bias, promotion of propaganda and conspiracy theories as well as affiliation with a known questionable group, and a few failed fact checks." The audio shared by The National Pulse has not been independently authenticated by credible media organizations and we cannot verify whether the audio actually features Hunter Biden or not. Furthermore, the National Pulse claims that they found this audio from the laptop which allegedly belongs to Hunter Biden, but the laptop and its contents are currently being verified by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and there is currently no confirmation that the laptop in question ever belonged to Hunter Biden.

On the question of Joe Biden knowing about his son's business deals, there is no evidence that Joe Biden knew about those business deals. One of the claims which surfaced from the laptop states that emails show Joe Biden being offered a 10 percent stake in Chinese business deals. Hunter Biden's business partner, Tony Bobulinski confirmed this to Fox News, saying that an email showing Joe Biden being offered a 10 percent stake in Chinese business deals is genuine. He further said the family “aggressively leveraged the Biden family name to make millions” from foreign entities. The email shows there was a discussion of “remuneration packages” for six people involved in a business deal with the now-bankrupt CEFC China Energy Co and it states “20” for “H” and “10 held by H for the big guy?” wherein big guy allegedly refers to Joe Biden.

However, the unverified emails do not conclusively show Joe Biden acting corruptly, or interceding on behalf of his son when he was the Vice President. Bobulinski also claimed that emails, text messages, and audio recordings he released show Joe Biden was entangled in a 2017 venture involving a Chinese firm. Bobulinski provided some of his records to outlets like Fox News and the Wall Street Journal. "Both reported that they do not show Joe Biden had business dealings with SinoHawk Holdings or took money from the Chinese company," noted Politifact. The Journal reported that the text messages and emails Bobulinski shared from 2017 "don’t show either Hunter Biden or James Biden discussing a role for Joe Biden in the venture." According to people familiar with the matter, the venture in China "never received proposed funds from the Chinese company or completed any deals," the outlet reported. "Corporate records reviewed by The Wall Street Journal show no role for Joe Biden."

Joe Biden has long denied discussing business with his son. No credible news outlets have reported any wrongdoing or role held by Joe Biden, and Biden’s campaign has denied that their candidate got involved in, or stood to gain from, the venture or any other overseas business arrangements. Even if Hunter used a photograph of his father and mentioned his relations with the Colombian President in the document, it does not imply that Joe Biden knew about the document or its contents.

There’s reason to be skeptical about Bobulinski’s allegations, which credible news organizations, like the Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, and The Associated Press have not corroborated. The New York Times reached the same conclusion about Bobulinski’s records as the financial disclosures and tax records for Joe Biden show no indication of any income related to the venture at hand.

I have never heard of the "National Pulse, much less read it . You place or seem to a lot of faith in the NYT. To many times caught with their pants down over Trump.

Trump certainly cant claim to be as pure as the driven snow, but he had a lot of "unproven and dishonest help" from those like the NYT. Biden has had his many silly lies pointed out over and over since he became president,with never a ruffled feather by his supporters or the democratic party. Yet with as much as has come out and keeps coming out all faith should be placed in a man that lies over the silliest,provable tall tales.

Hunter doesnt seem to have to many redeeming quailities, his sister seems to have many of the same problems. Her diary has some interesting comments concerning "daddy"
