Let's discuss Biden's son, Hunter! Hunter PROFITED by his name and his father's political positions.
After graduating from law school, Biden took a position at MBNA America, a major bank holding company which was also a major contributor to his father's political campaigns despite lacking financial or banking experience.
From 1998 to 2001, he served in the United States Department of Commerce, focusing on ecommerce policy. No idea how he got that job but he didn't stay long.
Next Hunter became a lobbyist for a couple of years.
In 2006, Biden and his uncle, James Biden, attempted to buy Paradigm, a hedge-fund group, but the deal fell apart before completion.
In July 2006, Hunter was appointed by President George W. Bush to a five year term on the board of directors of Amtrak. After his daddy became VP, Hunter resigned his board position.
In 2009, Biden, along with Devon Archer and John Kerry's stepson Christopher Heinz, founded the investment firm Rosemont Seneca.
He also joined the law firm Boies Schiller Flexner LLP, and founded Eudora Global, a venture capital firm.
Vice President Joe Biden, left, accompanied by daughter Ashley Biden, and sons Beau Biden and Hunter Biden, walks down the steps of Air Force Two upon their arrival in Lexington, K.Y., on Oct. 11, 2012.
In May 2013, Biden's application for a position in the U.S. Navy Reserve was approved. Biden was accepted as part of a program that allows a limited number of applicants with desirable skills to receive commissions and serve in staff positions.
He received an age-related waiver and a waiver due to a past drug-related incident, and was sworn in as a direct commission officer. His daddy administered his commissioning oath in a White House ceremony.
Biden only lasted a month as he tested positive for cocaine during a urinalysis test and was discharged.
Biden attributed the result to smoking cigarettes he had accepted from other smokers, only later suspecting they had been laced with the drug.
(Clearly Hunter hung out with other druggies but he should have had enough money not to be a butt begger!)
He chose not to appeal the matter as it was unlikely that the panel would believe his explanation given his history with drugs, and also due to the likelihood of news leaking to the press, though it was ultimately revealed to The Wall Street Journal by a Navy official who provided information to the newspaper on condition of anonymity.
Hunter Biden started a private equity fund along with Chris Heinz, the stepson of Sen. John Kerry.
Hunter flew to China on an official visit by his father in 2013 and ended up inking a deal for his hedge fund with the Bank of China within days of the visit.
Hunter accompanied his father aboard Air Force Two on a visit to China, where the vice president met with Chinese President Xi Jinping.
When they arrived, Biden, Hunter, and his daughter Finnegan were 'greeted by Chinese children carrying flowers, and the delegation was then whisked to a meeting with Vice President Li Yuanchao and talks with President Xi Jinping.'
'Rosemont Seneca and the Bank of China created a $1 billion investment fund called Bohai Harvest RST (BHR), a name that reflected who was involved. Bohai (or Bo Hai), the innermost gulf of the Yellow Sea, was a reference to the Chinese stake in the company. The “RS” referred to Rosemont Seneca.
In April 2014, Hunter was gifted a paid board member position of Burisma, a corrupt Ukrian energy company.
Bank records show Hunter collected 3.5 MILLION dollars for the use of his daddy's name.
On Oct. 28, 2016, a Hertz rental car employee reportedly received a phone call around 10 a.m. and subsequently discovered "suspicious" items inside one of the rental cars.
“Stolen identities were used to check defendant Robert Hunter Biden into an Arizona facility and providing false statements to the Prescott Police Department,” the document states. “These stolen identities include his deceased brother Joseph R. Beau Biden III, and Joseph McGee.”
The Hertz employee, who is only identified by her first name, “had received a call from Joseph McGee stating his friend was sick, and left the vehicle overnight with the keys in the gas cap area because they did not know what to do,” the document states.
Several items were also found, according to the court papers.
“A bag containing the suspicious items, a cellular telephone (Apple) belonging to Shauna Stanglr, who is also known as Puma St. Angel, and a Delaware Attorney General badge belonging to Hunter Biden's deceased brother Joseph R. Beau Biden III were provided to the police officer," the court papers state.
The papers identify Puma St. Angel as the co-founder of Grace Grove at Rejuvenation & Performance Institute in Sedona, Ariz., a self-described "lifestyle center" staffed with on-site therapists and coaches. It is not clear from the documents if this is the facility that Hunter Biden attended.
Three days later, when police dialed the phone number that had previously called the Hertz center on Oct. 28, 2016, the woman who answered the phone and identified herself as Puma. She said "Joseph" would return the call.
St. Angel denied any involvement and declined to comment when reached by FOX Business on Monday morning.
Biden and Kathleen had three children but separated in 2015 and divorced in 2017.
In 2016, he began a relationship with Hallie Biden, the widow of his brother, Beau. They ended their relationship by late 2017 or early 2018.
In 2017, police in Prescott, Arizona found a crack pipe in his rental car after it was damaged in an accident.
Biden is also the father of a child born out of wedlock to Lunden Roberts in Arkansas in August 2018. After denying the child was his, DNA proved he was a liar!
In Jan. 2020,
In 2018, Hunter moved to Los Angeles.
In May 2019, Biden married Melissa Cohen from South Africa.
A judge ordered Hunter Biden to appear in an Arkansas court for a hearing on whether he should be held in contempt for failing to disclose financial information to a woman who says she bore his child.

ABC: Joe Biden’s Brother, Frank Biden, Cashed In On His Famous Family Name
Before Hunter Biden was getting paid by that Ukrainian company there Joe Biden's younger Brother, Frank.
Frank Biden apparently made big money on charter school contracts by using access to his brother.
When his older brother was VP, Frank Biden even admitted that was great for business, saying that his last name was “a tremendous asset”.
ABC News reports:
“In 2009, the year Joe Biden took office as vice president, a local business executive met the politician’s younger brother, Frank, at a Starbucks in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, and later asked him to become the president and front man for a fledgling charter school venture.
Frank Biden, a longtime real estate developer in the state, accepted the offer, and over the years, he touted his famous last name and prominent connections in Washington to help land the company a series of charter contracts from local officials in Florida to open charter schools, earning hundreds of thousands of dollars over a five-year period from the company in the process.”...
The article points out that Frank Biden said that having his brother in DC brought him “automatic acceptance” as he sought government approvals for the for-profit Mavericks in Education.
However there are some serious questions about the school as ABC reports:
“Claims of mismanagement would ultimately bog down many of those schools, which focused on educating at-risk teens with troubled backgrounds.
In at least two separate lawsuits, Mavericks schools faced allegations of inflating enrollment as part of a scheme to garner more government funding. The charters were eventually sold and the schools reorganized under new management.
Critics suggest that when Frank Biden touted his family name to promote the Mavericks’ charter schools, it was just one example of the Biden family actively benefiting from sharing a name with the vice president.
Now it could pose challenges for the former VP as he seeks the Democratic Party nomination for president.
In 2012, a former teacher at the Mavericks school filed a whistleblower lawsuit accusing the school of altering student enrollment records in an effort to secure more government funding. This case was settled out of court. The terms of the settlement were kept secret.
In addition, ABC reports “A pair of audits by the state of Florida in 2012 and 2014 found that Mavericks schools operated in Palm Beach and Broward Counties were beset by similar issues.”
ABC News said Frank Biden declined to be interviewed for its report & Joe Biden’s presidential campaign directed ABC News to his past public statements about the distance he says he maintained from the dealings of his relatives.
