Hunter Biden, the first son whose escapades could fill a soap opera, is back in the news, and it’s not just for his questionable artwork. Authorities have unveiled that he was allegedly doing the bidding of a wealthy Romanian oligarch, Gabriel Popoviciu, who wanted to steer U.S. government agencies while Joe Biden was still dodging questions as the Vice President. Clearly, the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, especially when it comes to, shall we say, entrepreneurial opportunities.
In a stunning revelation, the office of special counsel David Weiss has alleged that Hunter was bought and paid for, earning a nifty $3 million from Popoviciu while daddy was in the vice presidential hot seat. Hunter wasn’t just hanging out at swanky Romanian parties; he was likely working on influencing U.S. policies that would benefit Popoviciu, who incidentally was facing corruption charges back home. Seems like nepotism isn’t just an American pastime.
The paperwork also suggests that Hunter and Popoviciu were so concerned about the political fallout from their little money-making scheme that they intentionally kept things hush-hush. They didn’t just want Hunter’s lobbying efforts to attract attention; they orchestrated a plan to hide what he was up to. While the Bidens have always claimed to champion transparency, this adds to the ever-growing list of their murky dealings.
As if that wasn’t enough of a circus, Weiss is playing the legal game as though it’s a high-stakes poker match. While some critics of President Biden have suggested that Hunter should be in hot water for not registering as a foreign agent, Weiss has decided to walk a tightrope, carefully skirting any allegations that would implicate the Obama administration. In a delightful twist for those with a sense of irony, the New York Times has even suggested Weiss might rely on testimony from Hunter’s business partners that “political ramifications” were a driving force in not signing up under the Foreign Agents Registration Act. So much for advice from the father of modern politics.
The cherry on this investigative sundae is that Hunter has already been convicted for using hard drugs while purchasing a handgun back in 2018. He effectively handed prosecutors a gold mine when he admitted in his memoir that he was smoking crack like it was going out of style at the time he bought the gun. Brilliant move there, champ! Meanwhile, his defense attorneys are trying to brush aside any implications of wrongdoing regarding business arrangements, citing Hunter’s struggle with addiction as a valid excuse. This sure brings a new meaning to “overcoming obstacles” in the business world.

With Hunter Biden’s tangled web of transactions, foreign ties, and legal troubles, conservatives could be forgiven for thinking this is all a bit too convenient. Not only does this sub story within the Biden drama echo the demands for accountability by America’s silent majority, but it also serves as a necessary reminder that when it comes to the high and mighty, the rules might just be different. Always, the question remains: what will it take to finally hold those in power accountable for their family’s actions?
