NEW: 'Team Biden' Sought To Cultivate Ties With Imaad Zuberi, Who Is Now Awaiting Sentencing On Tax And Foreign Agent Charges

Emails from Hunter Biden's laptop and court filings in Zuberi's case provide new details of the effort
dailycaller.com/2021/02/15/hun…
After the 2012 election, a longtime adviser to Joe Biden urged Hunter to cultivate relationships with a group of big donors, including Zuberi.

The goal: "To pull them in a little closer to Team Biden."
Zuberi met Joe Biden multiple times in 2014, and claimed in an email to Saudi Arabia's ambassador that Biden expressed frustration about the Saudi position on the Iran nuclear deal.
Zuberi also claimed in a 2015 email to Pakistan's ambassador that he met with Obama, who discussed drones in Pakistan.

dailycaller.com/2021/02/08/wil…
Bill Burns has been president of Carnegie Endowment since 2015.

Since then, a Chinese businessman who serves on the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, an advisory board for the government, has joined the think tank's board, and donated up to $1.5 million.
The China-U.S. Exchange Foundation gave up to $500,000 through 2017.

CUSEF serves as a front group for the Chinese Communist Party in its outreach overseas.

NEW: Senior FBI agent quit Crossfire Hurricane team after FBI officials shut down his "enhanced validation review" of Christopher Steele.

This implicates Bill Priestap, who was chief of FBI counterintelligence.

dailycaller.com/2021/01/18/fbi…
Joesph Pientka told the Senate that he wanted to do an additional source review of Steele in November 2016. Word came down that it was tabled because Priestap was concerned about leaks.
This is one of several examples of Priestap stepping in to block info related to Steele. Others:

*Priestap told the IG that he agreed with the Brits not to disseminate derogatory info on Steele. Because of that, the FISA court was never told of concerns about Steele's judgement

NEW: Victoria Nuland, who Biden will reportedly pick for a top State Dept post, played key role peddling the Steele dossier.

She also gave inconsistent statements about her involvement. dailycaller.com/2021/01/05/vic…
Nuland told the Senate Intel Committee in 2018 that she was "not aware" of a meeting Chris Steele had at State Dept in Oct. 2016. But she also claimed she intentionally avoided taking part in that meeting.
Nuland said in an interview on CBS she deferred to the FBI on how to handle information from Steele that was given to State Department.

But, according to internal FBI emails, Nuland was reluctant to give FBI the information in late Sept. 2016.

NEW: Mystery Chinese Firm Approached Hunter Biden With An Offer Of Charity, And A More Lucrative Pitch

Much has been written about Biden's relationship with CEFC China Energy, but emails and interviews fill in the gaps of how they first crossed paths.
dailycaller.com/2021/01/04/hun…
A consultant working on behalf of CEFC emailed Hunter in October 2015 saying the company wanted to donate to a charity Biden chaired. They *also* wanted to invest $100 million w/ an asset mgmt firm linked to Biden.
The consultant tells me that Biden and his partners had already discussed CEFC with Vuk Jeremic, a former Serbian and UN official who would later testify at the trial for Patrick Ho, the CEFC affiliate charged with bribery.
