There’s a New Artist in Town. The Name Is Biden.
New York Times ^ | 2/29/2020 | Adam Popescu

Posted on 10/17/2020 1:53:05 PM PDT by EBH

As an undiscovered artist, he is better situated than most: living in a rented, 2,000-square-foot house in the Hollywood Hills off Mulholland Drive, with a Porsche Panamera in the driveway, plenty of natural light and a pool house he has transformed into an art studio.

From the edge of the sloping property — it was leased for $12,000 a month starting last June 15, according to the homeowner — he has a view onto the San Fernando Valley below: Burbank and Universal Studios to the east, the 405 freeway to the west.

For years, vodka and cocaine were constant companions. Mr. Biden has talked often of facing the twin demons of addiction and personal loss. His mother Neilia and sister Naomi died in a 1972 car wreck, in which 2-year-old Hunter suffered a severe head injury.

Later, as he looked to escape temptations, the painting became therapeutic, he said. So did writing poems and short stories (he was accepted into Syracuse University’s creative writing program in 1993, but chose law school). Recently, he said, he has been writing letters to his deceased brother Beau, who succumbed to brain cancer in 2015, a loss that sent Mr. Biden off on a four year nightmare.

$12,000.00 a MONTH and he said he had no money to pay HIS CHILD SUPPORT OR HIS $450,000.00 in BACK TAXES! He has MULTI MILLIONS in bank accounts SOMEWHERE!

Hunter is now the official “Bagman Hero” of the New York Times!

Love it!

Next week they will be honoring Meyer Lansky, no doubt. Perhaps this will be a new series—Great American Criminals and Why We Love Them.

Trump keeps asking where Hunter is...I just had to go looking for him.

Definitely looks like the family told him way back in Feb. to chill and lay low.

The Wikileaks expose showed how Panama is the favorite place for everyone to setup their offshore shell companies and monies.

Everyone in DC and Hollyweird does business there. And fyi whatever they report as their Personal Net Worth is actually several times more than that, as they have money stashed everywhere!

Peloski claims to be worth $194 Million, which is still a heck of a lot for someone who as a politician for 30 yrs and being paid $167,000/yr should have only a few millions stashed away from savings, but she grew her money from insider trading and by directly profiting from the very same laws she created. Imho she has over $200M+ offshore

So? What does that have to do with the NY Times blatantly trying to humanize this Criminal?

Does that excuse the NY Times or Hunter Biden for their choices?
