This is going to be a politics post about the 2024 election – fair warning. While I don’t feel like doing the usual right-wing rant about Hunter Biden’s laptop and his fortune acquired through influence-peddling off of his father’s high government position as vice president, this post is about Hunter Biden and the larger 2024 Democrat political drama playing out.
Upfront, I have serious doubts Joe Biden will be the Democratic nominee for president. When the mainstream liberal media start hyping news stories about Biden’s fitness for office, that’s a clear indication the liberal media has gotten those talking points from high up in the Democratic Party machine. Otherwise, they’d still be running happy “What flavor ice cream cone did you order, Mr. President?” drivel. Today Axios has a story, Old yeller: Biden’s private fury, about Joe Biden’s “temperament,” with a section about, “Zoom out: Biden’s temper comes in the form of angry interrogations rather than erratic tantrums.”
The knives are out within some high-level of the Democratic Party to pressure Joe Biden to step aside, but don’t expect Biden to go easily or without putting up a fight. And that brings us to Hunter Biden.
When the Hunter Biden laptop story broke in October of 2020, weeks before the election, the mainstream liberal media and a lot of influential, former, high-level government intelligence officials closed ranks and declared the story was Russian disinformation. Several social media tech giants blocked the NY Post laptop story from their sites and since that time a lot of liberal media effort has gone into doing damage control for Hunter Biden – until recently.
There have been a flurry of stories by liberal news organizations, acknowledging Hunter Biden’s pay-to-play activities, his drug use and the authenticity of the laptop from hell. However, this more candid reporting comes after the fact, so to speak,. Here’s a June 23, 2023 CNBC story: Hunter Biden to plead guilty to federal tax crimes, take deal on gun charge.
The latest Axios, Old yeller hit piece comes after last week’s, Biden White House whodunit – with the baggie of cocaine found in the WH library, nope, in a “heavily traveled” part of the West Wing, to then in a not so “heavily traveled” part of the White House and so it goes. Rest assured the White House spokesperson, Karine Jean-Pierre, the worst WH press secretary in my memory, was quick to lambast anyone for suggesting the cocaine might belong to Hunter Biden, a known cocaine addict.
My initial suspicion was wondering if the cocaine had been planted there by some Dem, in hopes of creating another embarrassment for the President and to inch up the pressure for him to step aside.
Even The Atlantic ran a op-ed a few days ago: Step Aside, Joe Biden.
And here’s where Hunter Biden comes in, because Hunter Biden had been living secluded in a Malibu mansion with the Secret Service paying a fortune to rent a home in Malibu to protect him and his family, we were told. Here’s a People magazine article from April 8, 2022: Secret Service Agents Protecting Hunter Biden Have to Rent $30,000-a-Month Malibu Home: Report.
Alas, in recent months Hunter Biden left his cushy Malibu mansion and has become Joe Biden’s shadow… stage managing Biden’s public appearances and I presume to keep tabs on the White House, to protect his father’s and family’s interests. So, here’s a July 4, 2023 Newsweek article: Does Hunter Biden Live at the White House? What We Know.
The one thing that should not be underestimated about Hunter Biden, is he’s a lot like Jeffrey Epstein, in that he has connections everywhere in Washington – among Dems and Republicans, among lobbyists, among foreign operators, and he knows where a lot of bodies are buried in Washington. Hunter Biden isn’t going to let his father be pushed out to pasture easily and that’s the drama I think is playing out at the highest levels of the Democratic Party right now – some powerful Dems want Joe Biden to step aside soon and Hunter is there to thwart them.
Note: Just saw this FOX News report: Obama-era emails reveal Hunter’s extensive ties to nearly a dozen senior-level Biden admin aides
