“Biden Family Sleaze”

The backdating of President Biden’s pardon for his son to the start of 2014 has angered Republicans because they believe the family should be examined for Hunter Biden’s lucrative job on the board of a Ukrainian gas company and several other murky business dealings.

Hunter, a Yale Law School graduate, was paid an annual salary of $1 million by Burisma when he took up his post at the Kyiv-based company in April 2014, at the time that his father was vice-president with responsibility for Ukraine. This salary was halved in 2017, when Joe Biden left office, and Hunter quit the board in 2019.

Hunter’s 2021 memoir, Beautiful Things, documents how his descent into crack-cocaine addiction coincided with his highly paid role, stating that “in the last five years alone, my two-decades-long marriage has dissolved, guns have been put in my face, and at one point I dropped clean off the grid, living in $59-a-night Super 8 motels off I-95 while scaring my family even more than myself”.

President Joe Biden’s sudden and unexpected (by some) issuance of a broad pardon to his son Hunter continues to ripple throughout the political world. The Regime Media that so faithfully served Biden are now dutifully carrying his water in an attempt to dilute the legacy fallout that Biden will invariably suffer as a result.

We now know, per two left-wing sources, the Biden White House conspired for months to mislead the public about the Hunter Biden pardon.

For years, the regime media has done everything in its malevolent power to cover up and protect Joe and Hunter Biden. The far-left New York Times and NBC News are still in cover-up mode, but buried in their lengthy reports about Hunter Biden’s blanket, 11-year pardon for any and all federal crimes, is a bombshell of truth that proves we were lied to the entire time.

Let’s be honest here. The only thing shocking about Joe Biden pardoning his son, Hunter, was the timing. He was always going to do it. I think most people, myself included, figured he’d wait until January.

President Joe Biden has pardoned his son, Hunter Biden, who was convicted on federal gun charges and is due for sentencing in December.

Despite the White House’s assurances last month that the president had no intentions of pardoning his son, the announcement came through on Sunday evening that he had pardoned him.

Hunter Biden’s legal team is launching an assertive public defense of the president’s son just weeks before federal judges in Delaware and California prepare to sentence him this month, and as his father faces a diminishing window to pardon him if he chooses to do so despite previously ruling it out.

In a 52-page paper titled “The political prosecutions of Hunter Biden” released Saturday, Hunter Biden’s lawyers criticize the foundation of the investigations into their client, arguing that he was prosecuted for crimes that an ordinary citizen would not have been. Hunter Biden is likely to face further unfair threats when President-elect Donald Trump takes office, the lawyers contend.

LOS ANGELES — Hunter Biden intends to change his plea from not guilty to accepting a sentencing that would come from a guilty verdict in the federal tax case against him, his attorney Abbe Lowell said Thursday.

The reversal was made shortly before jury selection was expected to begin in what would have been Biden’s second trial this year. The only surviving son of President Joe Biden, Hunter Biden is the first offspring of a sitting president to stand trial on criminal charges.

Hunter Biden’s defense team in his upcoming tax evasion trial will not be allowed to introduce evidence that childhood and family trauma caused his spiral into crack cocaine and alcohol addiction, a judge has ruled. The federal district court judge, Mark Scarsi, ruled that the 1972 car crash that killed Biden’s mother and baby sister, and the death of his older brother, Beau Biden, in 2015, are “irrelevant” to the case.

House Republicans have concluded their impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden after finding that the president engaged in “impeachable conduct” to further his family’s years-long influence-peddling campaign, which racked up more than $27 million from foreign sources made to believe they could influence the operations of American government through their access to the Biden family.

Here is what the New York Times doesn’t tell you.

I can’t decide which is my favorite part of the story dribbled out by the media-Democrat complex’s mothership last night.

It’s probably the part, 16 paragraphs down, in which the New York Times explains how it knew the Biden-Harris State Department was stonewalling on the production of documents showing that, while Joe Biden was vice president, his ne’er-do-well son Hunter beseeched the Obama-Biden State Department to lobby the Italian government on behalf of Burisma — the corrupt Ukrainian energy company that was lavishly paying Hunter so it could have access to Vice President Biden and his political influence.
