Where do we even start with this guy?

Major revelations being unveiled this week regarding the son of the President.

Only earlier this week it was confirmed new york times supressed a story about Hunter in lead up to president election 2020 as to not dirty the image of his father to voters.

Let's not forget him selling his "art" for upto 500,000 dollars a peice to "private buyers" earlier on in the year.

Republicans will subpoena hunter should they win majority in midterms which they are heavily favoured to do.

It's about time someone got to the bottom of this Hunter business but I suspect the democrats will make sure very little gets revealed.

Before anyone says it's me making up things over two thirds of Americans agree with me.

I don’t see the purpose in a congressional hearing for Hunter Biden? He’s already being investigated by the DOJ - under 3 different Presidents. Probes began into Hunter Biden during the Obama Administration. They continued in the Trump administration. They continue today under the Biden administration with no indication of interference, or fired FBI directors. Political grandstanding doesn’t serve the interests of these investigations.

I don’t see how this poll though serves as evidence any of your claims aren’t made up: it’s a Rasmussen poll asking respondents if they feel the story is ‘important’ - and opinion polling, generally, doesn’t serve as proof that an allegation is real. Many Americans believe the earth is flat; over a third believe in creationism.

I had no idea that hunter Biden was a politician or a representative .

Lol. Ok so. Nothing to see here.

Two thirds of likely voters only equates to a little over one third of the electorate. So no, two thirds of Americans do not agree with you.

Surely it is key to note that HB has no capacity in government. He is a private citizen. He doesn’t even have a Biden Foundation or Biden Organization or Biden DC Hotel - or a peanut farm, to run for his dad. He hasn’t been given a job at the White House, hasn’t even been sent to meet with foreign dignitaries at the UN, etc.

Re: GOP hearings, just to reiterate, the investigation(s) against Hunter have already moved to the Grand Jury stage. No apparent need for a Congressional set of hearings (which have, since when, replaced the criminal justice system? Hunter Biden is not impeachable, he's not a member of government)

https://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/598635-hunter-biden-paid-off-tax-liability-amid-ongoing-grand-jury

For recap: At this point, investigators have done their work, uncovered material that a prosecutor believes constitutes crime(s). The prosecutors bring this one-sided evidence to a Grand Jury. A Grand Jury is selected among the people, like regular jurors, but usually for a full year to be jurists for all manner of potential criminal cases. If they agree there is a 'there' there, Hunter Biden will be indicted for crimes as determined by the Grand Jury, after which Hunter Biden would have opportunity to defend himself from such indictment.

Well I just don't see how it's relevant, it's not in the public interest, he is just a person like any other.

TBF it's still in the public interest; the thing he's suspected of doing include unregistered foreign lobbying, so it's not the same as eh, teenage Chelsea Clinton getting a DUI or something (don't quote me on that). Heck, it's not even the same as saying Hunter's drug charges deserve national attention (they don't imho)

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118839238#Comment_118839238

I think that's fair enough, but then you see the person who made the statement further say that it's not a matter of public interest.

That's the attitude I was referring to.

Where do we even start with this guy?

Can start with his name - who the fcuk calls their child ‘Hunter’? As Bradley Walsh said about ‘Fanny Chmelar’ -

“If that were my name I’d be straight down the Courthouse in the morning to change it”

As you pointed out, he has not even been indicted yet. Fair enough though, if he is convicted for a crime that includes leveraging his familial ties to lobby a foreign government, then I agree it would be in the public interest. Many steps to go, what is the threshold for launching an investigation? It looks to me like a political agenda to try to tarnish President Biden's reputation without even a conviction of this relative or even an indictment. Genetics are not a valid reason to prejudice somebody either. And in the opening post we get unflattering pictures of a guy who has not been convicted, is not a public figure and deserves personal privacy. It's clearly trash. I don't know why I would take it seriously until I see a conviction.

My wife's coworker's son is Hunter. Good golfer.

This guy is also hunter. Hell of a guy.

Plus, the outcome might not be criminal indictment, but lesser civil offenses, and having to pay back restitutions. When the Trump campaign laundered foreign donations etc. it simply paid fines. Here, Hunter Biden could simply end up being court ordered to register as a FARA lobbyist. He's already repaid his tax burdens.

Ahhh those republicans. always deflecting away from the crimes of 45 so they can pretend they have a political party and not useful idiots in perpetual servitude.

That's certainly one of their political challenges. I fully anticipate that,

• If they don't see Hunter Biden frogmarched in handcuffs for the cameras, arrested in a no knock raid in his underwear, etc. they will accuse the DOJ of political corruption.
• If they did so happen to see that unfold, they'd still be mad, and conjure it as ammunition for impeaching the President.

Either way the party's agenda clearly is removal of the President, and ironically, relitigating the 2020 election. I say ironically, because during the first impeachment of Donald Trump (and even the 2nd) the GOP made a great big huff that they saw impeachment as tantamount to undoing an election, and essentially trying to set a standard that if the POTUS was voted for, they are therefore unimpeachable (?!)

The Hunter Biden laptop leaks were epic

I imagine his life is just one continuous "Leaving Las Vegas" epic.

I hope he gets his head together long enough to write an epic "semi-autobiographical" book about his life, or even a book on one of his benders a-la Hunter S Thompson's seminal work. I bet he even has a Samoan attorney side-kick. And no, his current auto-biography is really just a hagiography

Change a few details and you're describing the two (failed) impeachment attempts on Donny

More than a few details. Trump was the President, Hunter Biden is not. The first impeachment was because of a WH phone call, the other was because of a (failed) autocoup. Hunter also can't host half the Senate at Camp David to woo them over, like Trump did.

One important difference among many, is that Hunter Biden is not the president of the United States.

It's right up there with Hillarys emails lol except nobody actually gives a flying f**k about Hunter Biden except those on the far right and a certain leader in Russia who has banned him from the country.

Trump was impeached twice. You are confusing impeached with removed from office and the spineless Republicans who were worried voters who vote them out if they convicted...

Hunter flew in with his father who was on official state business, then appears to have become involved in highly suspicious activity in both China and Ukraine. Burisma were paying him $83k a month despite the fact that he has no experience or credentials, apart from the fact that his father was in charge of US policy regarding Ukraine. There is enough there to draw suspicions of abuse of power and corruption.

If that is an attempt to deflect back at a Trump supporter then I'm afraid your efforts are wasted, Trump is a nutcase buffoon. Doesn't mean Hunter's dodgy deals while accompanying the vice president magically go away.

How depressingly predictable that another conversation about a quite serious issue gets **** derailed with people obsessing over the need to turn anything and everything into a discussion about trump.

Trump fans and trump detractors. Give it a **** rest.

You realise that the thread was started by a serial rereg troll and predictably some people tripped over themselves to post on here trying to make the story out to be more than it is.

The trump derangement syndrome is still alive and well in many posters still in boards unfortunately.

You mean the story that was called false until it was proven true? That story?.

A story about the sitting presidents junkie son who was given a job in Ukraine (you may have heard about that place) despite being exceptionally unqualified for it, who left a laptop in a shop which had incriminating evidence which may have implicated his father, the president of America, in some less than above board practices?

Yeah that's nothing.
