Over the last few days, there were some rather significant reports about the role that Hunter Biden played in his father’s administration.
We knew he was at the White House quite a bit, so Joe was clearly leaning on Hunter, but now new reports show his role being even more significant.
It was to the point that Hunter was being tapped into strategy meetings, sometimes without staffers even knowing.
We all knew that Joe Biden was going to pardon Hunter, even though he continuously denied that would be the case.
Joe waited until a month before he left office to drop the bombshell. On Dec. 1, 2024, Biden announced, “Today I signed a pardon for my son Hunter."
He went on, "From the day I took office, I said I would not interfere with the Justice Department's decision-making, and I kept my word even as I have watched my son being selectively and unfairly prosecuted."
The then-president continued, “Without aggravating factors like use in a crime, multiple purchases, or buying a weapon as a straw purchaser, people are almost never brought to trial on felony charges solely for how they filled out a gun form. Those who were late paying their taxes because of serious addictions, but paid them back subsequently with interest and penalties, are typically given noncriminal resolutions. It is clear that Hunter was treated differently.”
It is tough to justify a felon serving as a top adviser for Joe Biden, but that is what was happening here, and it likely played into the decision to have Hunter pardoned.
As the administration wound down, it became clear that Hunter had a more significant role than anyone truly imagined.
Now, I know what liberals will say... Well, Trump had his daughter and son-in-law as top advisers.
The difference here is that they had announced roles, not some dark channel that was being used to allow Hunter to have input.
With Biden now out of office, some real truth bombs are starting to hit, as former staffers are expressing their frustrations over the input that Hunter had.
As an example, after the U.S. Supreme Court issued its presidential immunity ruling, which was nothing more than a regurgitation of previous rulings, Biden held a strategy meeting to discuss the White House’s response.
While the discussion was taking place, it was reported, "Suddenly an unidentified voice piped up from Biden’s screen and recommended an Oval Office address. At first, some aides had no idea who was speaking. It soon became clear the voice belonged to Hunter Biden, who the White House staff had not known was on the call.”
I bring this up because of the autopen scandal, as we really have to start wondering who was issuing the orders because it now seems that Hunter had a very significant voice in this administration. Was he a key shot caller or just offering occasional input? As every day passes, more will come forward, and my gut tells me this is just the tip of the iceberg.
