Georges Bergès, the art gallerist for Hunter Biden, recently participated in an interview with Republican lawmakers. The transcript of this interview was made public on Monday.
It is already known that Hunter Biden’s art sales have been used as a cover for a money laundering scheme.
Democratic donors, including Hunter Biden’s lawyer Kevin Morris, have purchased his artwork. Additionally, another pay-to-play scheme involving the Bidens has come to light during the summer.
A prominent Democratic donor and a commissioner appointed by Biden were revealed to be buyers of what Hunter Biden refers to as his “art.”
The prices of Hunter’s artwork range from $75,000 for works on paper to over $500,000 for large-scale paintings.
Hunter Biden and his blow art.
Business Insider reported in July that Hunter Biden had knowledge of the identity of two of his buyers, and one of them received a favor from the Biden White House.
The buyer in question is Elizabeth Hirsh Naftali, a prominent Democratic donor and real estate investor based in Los Angeles.
She was appointed by Joe Biden to a prestigious commission called the Commission for the Preservation of America’s Heritage Abroad in July 2022, eight months after Hunter’s art debuted in a SoHo gallery.
Naftali has also had multiple meetings with senior advisors at the Biden White House and has visited more than a dozen times.
Hunter Biden’s lawyer Kevin Morris, who previously settled Hunter’s outstanding taxes, purchased 11 pieces of Hunter’s art for $875,000.
In addition to these revelations, the Republican-led House Oversight Committee released an interview transcript with Georges Bergès, Hunter Biden’s art gallerist.
This release contradicts claims made by the Biden White House about an ethics agreement being in place to prevent any potential influence-peddling involving Hunter’s artwork.
Georges Bergès revealed the following, according to the transcript:
- Hunter Biden wanted to know the identities of his art purchasers.
- The White House’s “ethics” agreement regarding Hunter Biden’s art was a sham. Bergès said he was surprised at the Biden White House’s claims there was an ethics agreement in place.
- Big money Democrat donors purchased the majority of Hunter Biden’s art – and Hunter Biden knew their identities.
- Georges Bergès revealed Kevin Morris purchased most of Hunter Biden’s art for $875,000 in January 2023. However, Kevin Morris only paid Mr. Bergès 40 percent commission of the $875,000 purchase and Hunter Biden and Kevin Morris figured out the financial implications. Mr. Bergès admitted he has never done an art deal like that before.
- In 2020, Elizabeth Hirsh Naftali did not buy Hunter Biden’s art despite Georges Bergès best efforts. Within two months of Joe Biden becoming President, in February 2021, Ms. Naftali purchased her first piece of Hunter Biden’s artwork for $42,000. Then in July 2022, President Biden announced Ms. Naftali’s appointmentto the Commission for the Preservation of America’s Heritage Abroad – the same commission that Biden family associate, Eric Schwerin, was appointed to during the Obama-Biden Administration. In December 2022, Hirsh Naftali purchased more of Hunter Biden’s art for $52,000.
- Georges Bergès confirmed Hunter Biden’s name had influence on setting the price for his art.
- Georges Bergès stated that he has talked on the phone and met in-person with Joe Biden, even attending the wedding the Bidens hosted at the White House.
“Hunter Biden’s amateur art career has been an ethics nightmare, and the White House needs to explain why they misled the American people.” House Oversight Republicans said on Monday.

ICYMI: FBI Defies Court Order By Refusing to Turn Over Seth Rich Evidence to Attorney
pay to play. any idiot could see that is what this was and is. lock up the entire Biden Cartel family.
They have more commissions in that sewer than they can keep up with. The feds are not that smart unless they are putting the screw to the taxpayers and then they are brilliant!!
Finally more of the crooked trail of Biduen money is coming to light. Hopefully enough will come to light to impeach convict Pedo Joe Bidung (right after he leaves office in 2025) so he can join Hunter in prison before he croaks.
It would be instructive to inquire of potential Progressive office aspirants if they were surprised by this. If they answer “yes” they are too dumb to hold office. Permit me to retract that: They nominated/elected King Joe. In their defense he was, indeed, the best they had.
Com on man, my 17 year old granddaughter is a artist and going to collage on a art scholarship. she won many first place contests for her drawings and paintings. she said it looks like a Crack head throw up on hunters so called painting. one would think a real artist would know about real art, not this crap hunter calls art and sells for 50k and up. it’s all BS. money given for favors, nothing more. the corruption never ends when it comes to the biden crime family. good thing Pelosi was wrong when she said no one is above our laws, or hunter would be in prison by now for drugs and illegal guns being a Crack head living in the white crack house and all. sure does look like crime pays real good, if you have the right last name !!!
George W. Bush, after leaving gthe White Houswe as President,he was painting works of art.
I have not seen what this so called art looks like but given what some so called experts call art is INSANE and down right IGNORANT to most people. I mean they call paint dribbled on a canvas art when a name like Pollock is on it. Then there were the FOOLS who called a plastic Crucifix in a quart of human urine Art. Now anyone with a brain know that Hunter with Pedo Joe’s full knowledge and blessing is giving people his so called art as an excuse for those people buying access to Pedo Joe and even appointment to office under Pedo Joe. Now everyone knows this happens to those who donate to politicians. Many of those who serve as Ambassadors are bid donors but in Pedo Joe’s case they get more than an appointment in his administration they get him to do favors for them that only someone in that Oval Office can give. Sadly Pedo Joe will pardon Hunter and NO one will go after Pedo Joe for his crimes. See Pedo Joe is committing TREASON with his WiILLING FAILURE to secure America’s borders and yet he is still in the White House and the Ho is still VP. Both should be hanging from a rope on a gallows him for not closing the border and her for helping keep it open.
I just want to know did he pay taxes on the amount of money he received for his paintings.. ????
Hunter: I just spilled my bottle of paint on this paper while I was “under the influence”. If you will pay me a half million dollars for the “artwork” I will have my dad give you a cushy government job that pays you a half million per year to not show up for work.
You have to take pity on the children of political parents, they teach them to steal. They are so privileged that they rise above all laws and the parents get involved and they steal together. Biden is a pathetic mess. he can’t do anything right!
