Hunter Biden used dad’s pull to lobby for friends to get federal jobs, emails from laptop show
NY Post ^ | April 10, 2022 | By Jon Levine

Hunter Biden used his family’s high-profile connections to promote friends and associates to federal office while his father was vice president, emails obtained from his hard drive show.

During the spring of 2010, Hunter Biden exchanged a series of emails with John M. Mott, an associate judge of the Superior Court of the District of Columbia who was angling for appointment to the federal bench.

“I appreciate your help,” Mott told Hunter Biden in a March 9, 2010 email after the two spoke by phone. Mott asked Hunter to press his case to then Vice President Biden’s chief of staff Ron Klain.

Mott never got the appointment. In a statement to The Post, Mott said he could not recall the emails.

Hunter also lobbied preferred candidates directly to his father.

“Before you fill position pls talk to me — [John] McGrail very much wants to serve as detail fr [sic] treasury, Hunter emailed his dad on June 23, 2014.

“Re Johnny call me right away, Dad,” Joe Biden responded less than an hour later.

McGrail was a longtime chum of Hunter’s. At the time, McGrail was serving as senior counsel to the US Department of Treasury. Just weeks after Hunter’s email, he went on to become deputy counsel to Vice president Biden. He later rose to counsel.

the last of the surviving Republic’s patriots ask:

did the FIB blackmail the bidans with the tapes??
or did the blackmail extend beyond??

the FIB has been balls deep into treason of a magnitude
never seen on this side of the galaxy.

their treason must have worked or they would
have been atomized, and their buildings razed and salted.

All of this smacks of good, old-fashioned patronage. Nothing new here and doesn’t seem to be criminal. The focus better be on the millions (billions?) of dollars they obtained illegally through their positions.

Least controversial subject since nepotism has run wild since the beginning government.

Heck, Adams and Hamilton wanted nepotism to flood the Federal government halls.

Show the dang financials from the laptop, not the porn and low hanging fruit but more serious stuff.

If Hunter was this corrupt, then the corruption from everyone in Washington is FAR WORSE than people realize. How sad.
