Who is surprised at this point??

This came out in a totally unrelated bankruptcy case.

Fund manager indicates Jim Biden was in business with Qatari officials

New details about Jim Biden’s foreign fundraising efforts are spilling out in a Kentucky bankruptcy court, where recent testimony indicates that President Joe Biden’s brother partnered with Qatari government officials in his quest to find money for U.S. health care ventures.

...
The alleged arrangements stem from an effort by Jim Biden to raise money from Qatari sources for ventures in the U.S. beginning in the months after his older brother left the vice presidency. At the time, the tiny, gas-rich nation faced a financial blockade from its neighbors and was spending lavishly to shore up its political standing in the West.

Public records and emails obtained by POLITICO offer a window on fundraising efforts in which Jim Biden invoked his ties to older brother and sought workarounds to restrictions on international money movements. Transactions related to the efforts are also at the heart of a recently-settled fraud case brought by the SEC and are being scrutinized as part of a federal criminal investigation in South Florida.

I think I’m more surprised that this was mentioned by Politico. Normally, Politico does everything it can do to portray Joe Biden and Democrats in a positive light, while anything negative (usually covered by right-leaning sources, since sources like Politico usually don’t bother) is deemed by Democrats to be a “conspiracy theory.”

Anyway, if I had to put money on it, I’m sure it’s all true.

For clarity - I used "questionable" just because there was nothing mentioned that was illegal.
