While new evidence of the former vice president's ties to his son's business is being uncovered, Biden's election headquarters claim the materials are fabricated and false.

The New York Post yesterday published additional excerpts from the e-mails of Hunter Biden, the son of Democratic presidential candidate and former vice president Joe Biden, revealing how his father was allegedly involved in his business in Ukraine.
While the tabloid revealed that the president's son pointed out his services to a Chinese energy company and even referred in the same message to a "big guy" to whom he is linked.
The revelation comes less than a day after an announcement was made by a member of the board of directors of the Ukrainian Energy Corporation "Borisma", a message received in April 2015, in which he thanked Biden Jr. for arranging a meeting with his father, then vice president of the United States.
Biden had previously claimed he never knew anything about his son's business and had not met anyone on his behalf.
Biden's election campaign claimed that the New York Post's publications were false and based on information obtained from President Trump's lawyer, Rudy Giuliani.
The paper did not deny that the information came from the attorney and former New York mayor but claimed that the owner of the store where the computer was located, who allegedly belonged to Hunter Biden, independently confirmed the information and even saw the computer as "things that shocked me."
A spokesman for Biden's campaign did not explicitly deny Tach's claim that there was no mention of the then vice president's official meetings with any of Burism's corporation members and that if a meeting had taken place it would have been private.
It was further alleged on behalf of the campaign that a committee of Congress had already examined the matter and found that there was no defect in Biden's conduct.
The new American network Fox News has accused social media Twitter and Facebook of deliberately censoring the story and reducing the exposure of allegations against Biden Jr. in order to protect his father during the election campaign.
The news network also accused the mainstream media in the United States of not presenting the story at all or attaching little importance to it.
