President Joe Biden vehemently denied ever talking business with his son, “or with anyone else” in the run-up to the 2020 election.

Beyond those meetings, there are more than 180 other episodes where the president interacted with his son’s business partners, contrary to his campaign claims of “absolute” separation.
