This time, Joe Biden’s brother, James Biden, is reportedly being investigated by the FBI over his involvement in a “hospital business” in Pennsylvania.
The feds are questioning James Biden about his ties to the company Americore Health, which is an operator of rural hospitals in Pennsylvania.
According to a previous report, "A business card identifying him as a 'principal of Americore’ was entered into court records in a civil case in Tennessee, but he has disputed that he is a principal of the company."
In January, the FBI raided an Americore hospital in Ellwood City, PA, and reportedly took boxes full of undisclosed items with them.
Americore is also currently in bankruptcy, and has faced allegations of “mismanagement that are unrelated to James Biden.”

When you’re a part of the Biden family, you’re apparently a part of multiple FBI investigations.
Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, released a statement earlier this week revealing that he is currently being investigated by the FBI over possible tax fraud.
“I learned yesterday for the first time that the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Delaware advised my legal counsel, also yesterday, that they are investigating my tax affairs,” Biden said in a statement released by the Biden-Harris transition team.
“I take this matter very seriously but I am confident that a professional and objective review of these matters will demonstrate that I handled my affairs legally and appropriately, including with the benefit of professional tax advisors,” the statement continued.
“President-elect Biden is deeply proud of his son, who has fought through difficult challenges, including the vicious personal attacks of recent months, only to emerge stronger,” the statement also read.
Biden has yet to comment on the news about his brother.
