It is almost as if the New Yorker prepared for this moment.
In early July of 2019, just more than two months after former Vice President Joe Biden kicked off his campaign for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination, the magazine published a more than 10,000 word piece attempting to whitewash misconduct by the candidate’s troubled son, Hunter.
The article chronicled Hunter Biden’s upbringing, a senator’s son as a sympathetic figure who has struggled with heartbreak and addiction while, unlike many children of prominent politicians, still had to work part-time jobs in college to make ends meet. Most striking about the New Yorker essay however, was its explicit attempts to get ahead of

FTA:
Here is the fourth paragraph of the feature-length profile:
Donald J. Trump and some of his allies, in their eagerness to undermine Biden’s candidacy, and possibly to deflect attention from their own ethical lapses, have gone to extreme lengths, promoting, without evidence, the dubious narrative that Biden used the office of the Vice President to advance and protect his son’s interests.

So, did “Pop” take half of the pay from those college part time jobs too? And isn’t that tax fraud?

Where is all that money that ''Pop'' took half of? Anyone believing that at least half of that part didn't go to Obama is crazy! Did the IRS allow Biden/Obama to squirrel that money away without interference?
Inquiring minds want to know!

Imagine you grow up as Hunter Biden. Your older brother is the heir apparent. You try to follow in his footsteps after he dies. It’s discovered that you are a deviant, drug addled crackhead who doubles as the family bagman.
Hunter Biden is Irish Fredo.

Re #6, Hunter actually crawled into his dead brother’s wife’s bed and stayed there for several years. During that time he impregnated a young woman from Arkansas who was stripping at a DC club he frequented. It was announced on April 30, 2019 that his family-verified and blessed “romantic relationship” with Hallie Biden had ended. A very short while later he was married in Los Angeles to a South African woman he’d known for only 6 days.

Sons of democrat vice presidents have often been naughty but not really illegal. This is a disgrace.

The Obama officials including the President himself put this nation in serious jeopardy from foreign actors by winking and ignoring the influence peddling scheme that the Biden crime family was engaged in. Biden was privy to NSC briefings and had the highest clearances issued by the government. These used to be given only to people with the highest integrity and whose background check indicated they were not associated with financial or lifestyle activities that put them at higher risk for extortion or blackmail. This was all obviously discarded by the Clinton State Department and the IC under Obama's watch.
If the American people are so stupid as to return these irresponsible grifters to positions of trust and power given the evidence at hand then we truly will lose our republic.

Perhaps Lois Lerner will come out of retirement and clear this all up for us.

The Biden family, not unlike the Kennedy family, is a collection of misfits, low IQ drunks, womanizers and crooks, who shoud not be given any sort of power over the people they think of as commoners to their feigned royalty. Money was made through illegal activity and it continues through government activity, which inherently is criminal. Just get them all the hell out of Washington.

An elitist rag. They once had a reputation for quality content. Now, they are nothing more than a monthly version of the NYT.
They are no Texas Monthly.
