Western Journal-
One of the shortcomings when it comes to the reporting on the Hunter Biden scandal is that the emails recovered from his laptop are definitive proof that Joe Biden’s son was trading on his father’s name during and after the elder Biden’s tenure as vice president. This manages to be accurate while at the same time being wholly incomplete.
As far as most media outlets are concerned, whenever the conflicts of interest that Hunter Biden introduced into his father’s 2020 presidential run are discussed at all, it begins and ends with Burisma in Ukraine and his work with a Chinese investment firm. His qualifications for both roles were basically that he had the same last name as the vice president, and the emails on his laptop pull the Democratic nominee further into the morass.
There’s an implication it all began there, however, if there’s reporting on the rest of Hunter Biden’s career.
When Joe Biden jumped from being a Delaware senator winding down his career to being second in line to the presidency — that’s the moment Hunter began to cash in on his surname. Before then, he was just your average Washington kid in the private sector.
In fact, the story is that there never really was a time the prodigal Biden wasn’t trading on the family’s name. read more
Let’s posit the notion that Joe Biden forced his son into a life of crime and fraud. Hunter deals with this with drugs, alcohol, prostitutes and masturbating in front of 14 year old girls.
Hunter Biden does not get these sweetcake do nothing jobs without a wink and a nod from The Big Guy who gets up to half of his salary.
Cliche Guevara- you know, I was telling someone that it looks like Biden was pimping out his kids.
The use of the word “morass” is a good choice with respect to Hunter Biden and Bill Clinton.
But I really like octopuses. REALLY. They fascinate me. All those COLORS and moods?
Just the idea of an octopus and 10% Pop is revolting!
Why? THEY ARE SMARTER than he is…
He was appointed to the board of Amtrak, too.
“More significantly, Hunter has spent a lot of time on Amtrak trains”
That’s it- his qualifications for that job.
And they complain about privilege.
As much as hunter is a detestable human being, his father is more so, and that is what this is really about. He knew about everything.
@Dianne Reynolds – thanks for pointing that out.
What an Amtrak ‘wreck’…the Bidens are.
I say wreck not because of trains, but how J Biden used Amtrak as an excuse his entire life and for 47 years we got what??? Humpter?
All the Bidens are paragons of perfidy. Corruption doesn’t run in their family, it gallops. It canters. It lopes. It trots. They’ve been crooked since the day that Dementia Joe got comfortable with his friend’s wife while she was consoling him over that tragic, unfortunate automobile accident that wasn’t caused by a drunk driver.
MJA: going back decades. I just read those stories of Hunter getting jobs at MBNA when they were Biden’s biggest patron in Delaware.
His whole life has been holding Dad’s wallet full of ill-gotten gains.
Why isn’t this a scandal? Because this is how The Swamp works. Laundering campaign contributions through consulting firms run by their kids or spouses. Influence peddling through fronts.
To indict Biden is to indict almost all of them.
