Biden's Son Keeps Law License Despite Drug-Related Navy Reserve Discharge

Despite being cashiered out of the Navy Reserve for testing positive for cocaine, Vice President Joe Biden's son is still being allowed to practice law and won't lose his Connecticut law license.

Late last week the Wall Street Journal reported that in February of this year Hunter Biden, 44, tested positive for cocaine during a drug test administered by the Navy and was immediately discharged from the Navy Reserve.

Days later the Connecticut Bar announced that it was not initiating any reviews of the younger Biden's law license.

Meh. Apparently, things go better with "coke". The lyin' king admitted to using it "when they could get it" back in his college days and it doesn't seem to have had any impact there. Or was he once again lying to gain some street cred with his bros.

He’s a democrat. Being on coke is simply an acceptable explanation for his decision making.

Laws are only for peasants and not for the ruling elite. Do you get it yet? Laws applied unequally are tyranny.

If they pulled the license of every lawyer who tested positive for cocaine would there be any lawyers left?

Ted Kennedy kept his law license after having killed a woman.Robert F Kennedy Jr kept his after having been found guilty of heroin possession.William Kennedy Smith kept his medical license despite having raped a woman (yah,I know...”not guilty”).

Yes, but the plaintiff’s bar (so-called “consumer attorneys”) would be decimated.

This how we used to describe the Soviet Union. If you were in the elite of the communist party life was easy. Otherwise... not so much.

I think a big hearty FreeRepublic HUZZAH is in order to the review board who decided to boot this clown. Imagine the pressure they felt in rendering judgment on the son of the Vice President of the United States, even if it is just ole Joe.

It’s on the level of a cop citing the Sheriff or the Mayor for drunk driving.

And you better believe a lot of pressure came from the Navy brass, fearing that Old Joe might get Zero and Harry Reid to cut even more from the ship-building budget.

Hunter Biden is proof that his family’s DNA pool is pretty shallow. Tested positive for coke during his very first reserve drill weekend. That must be a first. And, since coke leaves your system within 72 hours after use, Hunter must have been taken a toot within a day or so of showing up in Norfolk. Apparently, the Biden spawn was unaware of that fact; if he had used cocaine two days earlier, he would have tested clean—and would still be in the reserves.

It was obvious that Hunter Biden joined the Naval Reserve in preparation for a future political run. Any possibility that the “failed whizz quiz” and discharge from the reserves derails those plans? Probably not, given his last name and (assuming) he runs in Delaware. I’m guessing he planned to make a run for his brother’s current job (attorney general) when Beau Biden runs for governor.
