Hunter was the subject of a widely discredited story by the New York Post that fired up Republicans and raised concerns among some US intelligence.

Hunter Biden, former Vice President Joe Biden's middle child, was the subject of a dubious story published by the New York Post that aired unverified claims about juicy emails and embarrassing images it said were found on the younger Biden's laptop. The story was widely discredited, but not before it raised questions among lawmakers and US intelligence about a possible Russian disinformation effort ahead of November's presidential election.

Story continuesThe controversies escalated on November 20, 2019, when DNA results confirmed he fathered a child with a different woman while dating Hallie Biden, his brother's widow. While he dismissed the claims by the child's mother, Lunden Alexis Roberts, earlier in the year, court filings now assert that he accepts the child is his.

After graduation, he spent a year in the Jesuit Volunteer Corps, working in Portland, Oregon, before graduating from Yale Law School in 1996.In 1997, Hunter Biden returned to the family's roots in Wilmington, Delaware, where he began a career that immediately caused conflict-of-interest questions. In 1998, he reached out to William Oldaker, a Washington, DC-based lawyer who had worked on Joe Biden's 1987 presidential campaign about getting a job in President Bill Clinton's administration, according to The New Yorker.Oldaker connected Hunter Biden with Commerce Secretary William Daley, who had worked with Joe Biden and bonded with Hunter over being from political families, according to The New Yorker.

CNN reported that Hunter Biden resigned from the firm when then-Sen. Barack Obama, who said he would refuse donations from lobbyists, asked Joe Biden to join his presidential ticket. In September 2008, Hunter Biden launched a consulting firm, Seneca Global Advisors, and in June 2009, Hunter cofounded the private-equity firm Rosemont Seneca Partners. The New Yorker said that through his companies and his partners, Hunter Biden established various business connections to figures in China and Russia.

After tragedy struck the family through 46-year-old Beau Biden's death from cancer in 2015, Hunter Biden's personal life remained in the headlines. "We are all lucky that Hunter and Hallie found each other as they were putting their lives together again after such sadness," the statement said."They have mine and Jill's full and complete support and we are happy for them."

It’s because Hunter is a druggie who made insane amounts of money with zero experience, while in rehab. Joe Biden‘s was bribed by Russia, China and Ukraine through Hunter’s “ lucrative positions.“

So in other words, if he was a Trump instead of a Biden, Hunter would be the squeaky-cleanest one of the whole lot.

Poor Hunter has been scandal plagued now. Get out of here. Yahoo is garbage

really? He’s not running for Office and this is irresponsible.

When Biden gets sworn in as President besides Jill next to Joe Hunter better be front and centre. Joe can give his acceptance speech and then turn the mic over to Hunter so he can blow the Trump mafia family a kiss

Wow look at 5 days late now easing into the scandal! Pathetic

“Scandal plagued?” This is a shit headline.

Since the dotard is going down this path, it's open season on uncovering the secrets on ALL 5 of its demon spawn!!!

MAGA world, GOP unite on social-media bias after Hunter Biden storyTwitter and Facebook's handling of the New York Post Hunter Biden piece has pushed long-simmering MAGA complaints to the top of Republicans’ talking points Corona Joe knows he and his crack head son Hunter are going to jail if he's not elected to POTUS - RICO laws broken. What's especially funny is thanks to spammers doing so much forging there is a great way to tell if an email is legit: it'll be cryptographically signed by the sender. So all you have to do is look up the key in DNS and verify the signature, which is why MAGA won't publish them
