I don’t care about Hunter Biden’s legal troubles.
Okay, that's pretty much it for today's article. That’s the core of what I have to say. If you have a busy day, you can stop now. That’s it. We’ll see you back here later, I hope. Have a nice day. For anyone still here, just to be clear I’m not insensitive to Hunter Biden’s troubles – but they’re Hunter Biden’s. He’s a private citizen. Yes, of course, his dad is President of the United States. But Hunter Biden isn’t the U.S. President. He isn’t even in his father’s Administration in any official capacity, even just as an advisor – like Ivanka Trump was. Or her husband Jared Kushner. (As such, that’s why when she got 34 trademarks from China for free, and he got $2 billion from Saudi, those were – and are – issues of public concern.) He doesn't even have an intern job to get coffee and Danish for the White House staff. Hunter Biden is just the son of the President. So, I wish Hunter Biden well dealing with his drug issues of the past. And his legal issues. But all of those legal issues are his alone. And those legal issues have been investigated for five years. And after five years, the U.S. Attorney investigating the case, appointed by Trump and given full authority by the Department of Justice, has determined what charges are appropriate...and that can be proven. And zero of them include Joe Biden. After five years of investigation. Further, John Durham -- the Special Counsel appointed by Trump’s Justice Department to investigate All Things Biden – investigated All Things Biden for four years and found zero to charge President Biden with. (In fact, after his entire investigation, he only charged two people, and lost both cases.) If there was anything to find that Joe Biden did even remotely illegal, John Durham would have found it. He found nothing. Hunter Biden is a private citizen. I don’t care about his legal troubles. And Republicans who do their best to insist that they care about Hunter Biden’s legal troubles are blissfully unconcerned with the daughter and son-in-law of Trump getting 34 trademarks from China for free and $2 billion from Saudi Arabia – and unconcerned with Trump himself getting indicted for espionage and stealing classified document, and getting indicted for fraud, and being found liable for sexual assault (or, as the trial judge noted, the equivalent of rape), or on the verge of being indicted for election fraud, on the verge of being indicted for attempting to overthrow the government. So, y’know, their insistence on “caring” about the legal troubles of Hunter Biden, a private citizen, has to be seen in that full perspective. And is whimsical at best, and fascist at worst. The best that Republicans have been able to offer against Joe Biden (who, of course, this is all about) after four years of investigation of Joe Biden and five years of private citizen Hunter Biden is a whistleblower who is a foreign agent for China, arms dealer for Iran, who is under indictment by the Department of Justice and is on the run, and the Republicans can’t even find. I could say a lot more, but my first sentence said everything important. The rest is just filler. So, I think that's enough. I don’t care about Hunter Biden’s legal troubles.
