The first woman (“Individual 14”) was a lobbyist. For about three years, Hunter dipped into his campaign contributions to pay for a couple’s ski getaway (which cost more than $1,000), a road trip to Virginia Beach, and hotel stays, according to prosecutors.

I always thought that it was the lobbyists that bribed the politician.

Live and learn.

The people running the federal agencies and DOJ are partisan Dims and leftists.

This is why changing executives doesn’t make much difference with respect to the behavior of these unaccountable agencies. See also Steve Stockman.

We need drastic reform here. Juries must say no to the prosecutors and any of the evidence presented by these people.

If the female lobbyist were 12yo and Hunter a Dem, this would be no story

Hunter dipped into his campaign contributions

Sounds like he dipped into more than his campaign stash.

“Is lobbyist another word for prostitute?”

You are confusing “lobbyist” with “member of Congress”. A lobbyist is more akin to a pimp. And once again a Republican makes the whole “party of family values” moniker a punchline, much like “drain the swamp.”

Politicians need to start learning how to keep it in their pants. Seriously. Sexual affairs do not come back to bite you later on if you don't have any.

Follow the Mike Pence Rule and you won't even have to worry about false allegations of affairs that you cannot disprove.

You’re right on this.

And didn’t congress use 17 Million of our dollars to settle sex related lawsuits?

If this was a D, he’s be walking.

And i’m sure campaign donations have been used in worse ways :)

$1,000 lobbyist ski vacations must charge by the hour.

Hunter did a lot of dipping, it appears.

Lowlife loser, if true.

I wonder if his wife will be at his side, in public appearances/court appearances, now?

including a $1,000 ski vacation with a female lobbyist ************************************************************ Did they stay in a closet?

Two nights with minimal travel expenses, it's doable.
