A NATION BEING DESTROYED BY THE PARASITE GAMER LAWYER CLASS
Where there’s smoke, look for fire. Biden came from humble means, never worked in the private sector, but somehow became wildly wealthy. Several of Biden’s family members essentially work in the family business of apparent influence peddling. Does Biden’s frequent refrain, “I never spoke with my son about his overseas business deals” come to mind? It makes one wonder if “never” really means “never!”. Biden has nine relatives receiving millions in foreign cash. What were they talking about when Vice President Biden and his cronies met 80 times at the White House? Veracity is everything when you solicit the public’s trust, and Biden’s persona is wrapped around his supposed trustworthiness. However, the facts here point to a person who uses hyperbole, manipulation, and outright lying to sway public opinion.

Biden, long known as Delaware’s “senator from DuPont,” Biden served on committees that were most sensitive to the interests of the ruling class, including the Judiciary Committee and the Foreign Relations Committee. He supported the repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act in 1999, a milestone in the deregulation of the banks, and other right-wing measures. After nearly four decades in the Senate, Biden became Obama’s vice president, helping to oversee the massive bailout of Wall Street following the 2008 financial crisis and the subsequent restructuring of class relations to benefit the rich. That included the bailout of General Motors and Chrysler, based on a 50 percent cut in the pay of all newly hired autoworkers.
Hunter Biden Was a Member of $75,000-Per-Year Hollywood Sex Club, Owner Claims
The first son is attempting to reduce child support payments based on his inability to pay
Damon Lawner, an eccentric Los Angeles playboy who until recently ran an exclusive sex club frequented by celebrities, claims Hunter Biden was a member.
The Los Angeles Times described Lawner’s sex club, "Snctm," as having been "an exclusive club for the super-rich," with annual membership fees going as high as $75,000. Notables spotted at the club include Bill Maher, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Aerosmith lead-singer Steven Tyler. The sex parties hosted by the club took place in a 6,500-square-foot complex in the same neighborhood as the Playboy mansion. Per the Times, it featured a "built-in sex swing" and a stripper pole.
Revelations about Biden’s alleged membership to the exclusive club comes as his legal team is advocating to reduce child support payments to a woman with whom he fathered a child in 2019, citing his financial inability to pay her the current sum of $20,000 per month. The New York Post reported yesterday that the two had reached an agreement to reduce the payments, though the woman’s attorney declined to comment on specifics.
Lawner’s playboy lifestyle of "steamy nights, heavy drinking and hard drugs" mirrors that of the younger Biden. The first son has blown tens of thousands of dollars on prostitutes, regularly used crack cocaine, and had sex with his dead brother’s wife, advising her to get tested for HIV after the fact.
The Instagram post the Los Angeles Times cited when reporting that Lawner claimed Biden as a member appears to no longer be available. It is possible that Lawner posted a story with the claim which has since expired. Lawner recently posted a story voicing support for Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who is seeking to dethrone Hunter’s father in the upcoming Democratic presidential primary.
Source Close to Hunter Biden Says He Reached Settlement With Arkansas Baby Mama
A source close to Hunter Biden says he settled his Arkansas child support dispute in a surprise Tuesday agreement that will reduce his payments by thousands of dollars a month, according to the New York Post.
The alleged deal with his four-year-old daughter’s mother, Lunden Alexis Roberts, would slash Biden’s child support from $20,000 per month to just $5,000 and allow Biden to avoid a drawn-out court dispute that could have required him and his business partners to reveal information about his finances.
Roberts’s lawyer Clint Lancaster told the Post, which temporarily took down its report before adding comment from the attorney, that the terms of the agreement are still being worked out. "The case is sealed, and these are financial terms that should never be disclosed," he told the Post.
Lancaster added that he was concerned Hunter Biden might use the settlement terms to "promote some agenda" and Roberts’s team was disappointed there was "not more contact" between the child and the Biden family. President Joe Biden has declined to acknowledge the four-year-old as his grandchild, even after a court-ordered paternity test found Hunter Biden was the father.
The settlement would be the third legal issue to reach its conclusion for Hunter Biden on Tuesday, who also reached a plea agreement with federal prosecutors on tax and gun charges.
Biden and Roberts negotiated the settlement late last week, according to the Post, which cited a "source close to the first son." As part of the deal, Roberts also reportedly dropped a request to change their daughter’s last name to Biden.
The reported settlement agreement had not been publicly filed in the case as of Tuesday evening, a clerk for the Arkansas court confirmed to the Washington Free Beacon. Lawyers for Roberts and Biden did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Biden was in Arkansas last week for a closed-door deposition in the case. He was also scheduled to appear in court on July 10 for a hearing on contempt charges, after Roberts’s lawyer accused the first son of withholding financial records.
Biden made his first and only appearance in the case in May, when his lawyers revealed that he had agreed to pay Roberts $20,000 in monthly child support in 2020. Biden reopened the case last year and claimed he could no longer afford those payments. He also filed a motion to block Roberts from changing their daughter’s last name to Biden.
Lancaster, Roberts’s lawyer, had argued that Biden’s high-priced legal team—which included prominent Washington, D.C., fixer Abbe Lowell—was evidence that Biden had the funds to pay child support.
The Free Beacon reported last week that Biden repeatedly ignored Roberts’s attempts to reach him during the final months of her pregnancy and cut her off from his company’s health insurance a few months after she gave birth.
I’d be inclined to disagree with Don except for one thing: Biden has proven to be a very adept criminal mastermind. For decades, he has funneled millions of dollars to his children and siblings and, especially, to his debauched, deviant son, Hunter.

There it is. That's the issue. To begin, you have the corrupt family Biden. They've been scamming us and our system well for almost fifty years. The man is supposedly worth over 250 million dollars. How is this possible on his salary? It's not. So where did his wealth come from? Not from being a brilliant businessman. DAVID PRENTICE
The book is a devastating chronicle of political corruption. From Ukraine to Mexico to China, Hunter Biden's private correspondence shows how he and his family leveraged his father's position to win high-paying, low-work gigs with shady foreign actors—and how Joe's official actions at times directly benefited his family's financial backers.

Hunter’s Sweet Plea Deal
Welcome to the Left's surreal and twisted world of equal justice.
[Editor’s note: Make sure to read Robert Spencer’s masterpiece contributions in Jamie Glazov’s new book: Barack Obama’s True Legacy: How He Transformed America.]
The defenders of justice in America have finally gotten around to dealing with America’s first son, Hunter Biden, the crack-addled patron of hookers who became a highly-paid natural gas company executive and then an artist whose paintings sell for more money than Pablo Picasso’s, all because his last name is Biden and he can provide, for the right price, access to his foggy old man, who happens to bear the title of president of the United States.
Hunter is not, however, facing the music for his blatant influence-peddling, or for any of the other crimes that his notorious laptop reveals. Instead, he is getting a slap on the wrist for a few token infractions, so that Gestapo chief Merrick Garland and his henchmen can brush aside charges of a two-tier justice system: “Whaddeya mean, we go after patriots but not Leftists? Look: we prosecuted Hunter Biden!” Sure you did, Merrick. Maybe some rubes will fall for this.
The Washington Post reported Tuesday that “President Biden’s son Hunter has reached a tentative agreement with federal prosecutors to plead guilty to two minor tax crimes and admit to the facts of a gun charge under terms that would likely keep him out of jail.” This is not exactly akin to getting Al Capone on tax evasion. This is simply a charade, an empty exercise in charging Hunter with something, anything, in order to take the wind out of the sails of those who claim that the Biden regime is relentlessly persecuting its principal opponent, Donald Trump, while turning a blind eye to actual crimes committed by Leftists such as Hillary Clinton, as well as Old Joe and Hunter himself.
Hunter Biden is looking at “about two years probation” and will be required to “enter a diversion program,” if anyone is actually going to be paying attention to whether or not he does so, but he could have been and should have been facing much worse. Back in Sept. 2020, the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs and Senate Committee on Finance issued a report noting that while his father was vice president, Hunter Biden was “paid millions of dollars from a corrupt Ukrainian oligarch” for his presence on the board of Burisma Holdings, a Ukrainian natural gas company.
Hunter’s presence on this board caused a great many problems. The report notes that “the Obama administration knew that Hunter Biden’s position on Burisma’s board was problematic and did interfere in the efficient execution of policy with respect to Ukraine.” What’s more, “in early 2015 the former Acting Deputy Chief of Mission at the U.S. Embassy in Kyiv, Ukraine, George Kent, raised concerns to officials in Vice President Joe Biden’s office about the perception of a conflict of interest with respect to Hunter Biden’s role on Burisma’s board. Kent’s concerns went unaddressed, and in September 2016, he emphasized in an email to his colleagues, ‘Furthermore, the presence of Hunter Biden on the Burisma board was very awkward for all U.S. officials pushing an anticorruption agenda in Ukraine.’” It was more than just awkward. It was inexcusable, and it was clear evidence of corruption.
No one seems particularly concerned about Hunter’s presence on Burisma’s board now, yet it is a clear red flag. Hunter Biden had no educational background or experience in the natural gas industry. What’s more, he was a dissolute crack addict who consorted with prostitutes. If he had not been the son of the vice president of the United States, does anyone really believe that Burisma would have offered him this lucrative job? Hunter’s very presence on Burisma’s board was prima facie evidence of influence-peddling, as is his new career as an artist.
To be a struggling artist is a cultural cliché going back to Vincent Van Gogh shivering in a garret while producing world-historical masterpieces that the public wouldn’t come to appreciate until after his tragic death. Artist Hunter, however, has paid no such dues. Even though he took up painting late in life and you can find more compelling artworks on sale for a hundred bucks at the local frame store, Hunter’s paintings have commanded eye-watering prices up to $500,000, although the latest batch was positively bargain-basement stuff, going for only $85,000. Could it be that people are snatching up Hunter’s daubings in order to get a few minutes of face time with the alleged president? You bet your life. But no one cares, least of all Merrick Garland.
Donald Trump is looking at hundreds of years in prison, essentially for the crime of bucking the Leftist establishment. Hunter Biden, on the other hand, is a protected member of that establishment. And so there is one system of justice for Trump and quite another for Hunter. Blind justice? Not in America. Not anymore.

Hunter Biden Ghosted Baby Mama During Pregnancy, Texts Show
President’s crackhead son yanked health insurance from mistress shortly after birth of daughter
For months in 2018, a very pregnant Lunden Alexis Roberts was unable to reach Hunter Biden, the father of her soon-to-be-born daughter. He screened her calls. He ignored her messages. Six weeks after their daughter’s birth, she tried one more time.
"In hopes that you even read this- Baby was born Aug 28. Beautiful & Healthy," she wrote in a text on Oct. 16, 2018. "If you ever become curious and want to know more I can send pictures, details, or whatever you may request."
"I know that’s a long shot and you’d much rather avoid the whole situation," she added, "but just wanted you to know the door is always open for you in the baby’s life."
Biden never responded. But years later, Roberts and their four-year-old daughter—whom President Joe Biden has refused to publicly acknowledge as his grandchild—have become an issue the Biden family can no longer ignore.
The ongoing child support case in Arkansas, which has drawn Hunter Biden into the courtroom and made national headlines, could force the younger Biden to release sensitive financial information. At the same time, several federal investigations, including a congressional probe into the Biden family’s foreign business dealings, are likely to keep eyes peeled on financial disclosures that come out of the Arkansas trial.
While Roberts has declined public interviews, court filings and text messages shed light on her battle to extract child support from a member of one of the world’s most powerful families, as well as her unsuccessful efforts to make Hunter Biden a part of their daughter’s life.
The text messages show Hunter Biden dropped out of contact a few months into her pregnancy, cut off her salary and health insurance shortly after she gave birth, and declined to even see a photograph of his newborn daughter. He had initially put her on his company’s payroll, likely to provide her with health care during the pregnancy. The messages show she did not go to court to seek child support until several months after Biden cut her off from his company's health insurance.
Hunter Biden reopened the paternity case last September, saying he could no longer afford to pay Roberts the $20,000-per-month in child support he had agreed to during his father’s presidential campaign in 2020. He is also asking the court to block the child from taking the "Biden" last name.
Hunter Biden, who initially denied he was the girl’s father until a court-ordered DNA test proved him wrong, said he has "no recollection" of sleeping with Roberts after they met in 2017, noting that he was a drug addict and had many casual sex partners at the time.
But according to text messages, Roberts and Hunter Biden were in frequent contact and discussed her pregnancy for the first few months. He added her to the payroll at his company, Owasco P.C., a perk that came with health insurance. But the text messages indicate that Biden was unhappy about Roberts’s pregnancy, and he dropped out of contact when she was about three months along.
"Last we spoke you were upset because I hadn’t kept you ‘updated.’ That was in February," Roberts wrote to Biden in October 2018, shortly after their daughter’s birth. "I’ve called numerous times and sent a few messages as well."
"I understand you despise me and want nothing to do with the decision I’ve made," she added. "However, I still felt you deserved to hear about it from me … Baby was born Aug 28."
Biden had also ignored Roberts’s attempts to reach him in the summer of 2018, as her September due date approached. "Just called to check in on you.." she wrote the evening before Independence Day. Later that month, she sent him an update from the doctor.
On Aug. 8, she wrote: "Reached out a few times, it’s clear you don’t want to be reached. Need to talk to you. If you feel the need to reach out, my line is always open. Hope you are well."
Roberts gave birth to their daughter on Aug. 28, 2018. A month and a half later, she wrote Biden to tell him that he was welcome to be a part of their child’s life. "I have left my ‘DC lifestyle’ in the past as I decided to come home [to Arkansas] and jump back into who I was before DC, bettering myself for a child," she told him.
Hunter Biden didn’t respond. But a few weeks later—after depleting his company’s bank accounts and facing financial difficulties—he told his personal assistant to remove Roberts from the Owasco P.C.’s payroll to cover his other expenses. "Take Lunden off payroll," he wrote, referring, at one point, to Roberts as "what’s her name."
Hunter Biden’s personal assistant, Katie Dodge, noted that this would also cut Roberts off from the company’s health insurance. Biden told her to go ahead. "I thought you said [Roberts] decidedly dint [sic] want to work and didn’t need health insurance anyway. Remember that conversation?" wrote Biden.
"No. I do not remember that conversation," responded Dodge. "Maybe she told you that but I wasn’t involved."
Biden shot back that he hadn’t "talked to Lunden in 7 months" and told Dodge to "take whatever I pay Lunden and get my shit straightened out." In a follow-up in December, Biden asked Dodge to confirm she "took what’s her name off" of the company payroll. Dodge confirmed that Roberts had been removed.
Five months later, Roberts filed a petition for child support against Biden in Arkansas. She was living back in her hometown of Batesville and working at her family’s local business, earning what the court judge estimated was "less than minimum wage." She said her parents helped her out with "petty cash," but Biden had "provided no support for this child" since the baby was born.
Hunter Biden "has had no involvement in the child’s life since the child’s birth" and "could not identify the child out of a photo lineup," Roberts’s attorneys said in a filing.
Hunter Biden, who told the court he was unemployed, eventually agreed in March of 2020—a few weeks before his father Joe Biden became the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee—to pay Roberts $20,000-per-month in child support.
Now Hunter Biden is taking a more aggressive approach. In September, he asked the court to reduce his monthly payments, saying there had been "a substantial material change in [his] financial circumstances, including but not limited to his income." He also ramped up his legal team, hiring D.C. power-lawyer Abbe Lowell, who attended the most recent hearing in Arkansas last month.
But he is also facing orders from the court to turn over financial records—including information on his businesses, investments, and financial gifts that could be relevant to an ongoing Department of Justice investigation into his taxes and a congressional probe into potential influence-peddling by the Biden family.
Hunter Biden’s move to reopen the case has surprised some legal experts.
"I'm really astonished that Hunter Biden, given that he has a pending criminal investigation, and given that there are pending congressional investigations, would go back into this court and try to reopen this Pandora's Box," former federal prosecutor Elie Honig told CNN in March.
That risk seemed to grow this week, after Arkansas Circuit Court judge Holly Meyer ordered Biden to appear on July 10 to defend himself against potential contempt charges. Roberts’s lawyers have asked the court to hold Biden in contempt for allegedly failing to turn over complete financial records.
Judge Meyer said Biden’s "ability to pay" child support "is or may become a critical issue in the contempt proceeding," opening him up to questions about his financial condition in court.
Hunter Biden "will have an opportunity at the hearing to respond to statements and questions about his financial status" and "is subject to an express finding by the court that he has the ability to pay," the judge said.
'Let’s Clear That Issue Up Right Now': Arkansas Judge Orders Hunter Biden to Court To Answer Laptop Questions
Judge demands Hunter Biden make public appearance in custody hearing
An Arkansas judge ordered Hunter Biden on Monday to personally show up in court in May to address questions about his laptop, including whether financial records on it belong to him.
Circuit Court judge Holly Meyer gave the order as part of Hunter Biden’s drawn-out custody battle with Lunden Alexis Roberts over their four-year-old daughter. It would be his first public appearance in the case—the Bidens have steadfastly refused to acknowledge the child’s existence, and Hunter denied that he was the father until a court-ordered DNA test proved otherwise.
"I want both of your clients at every hearing that I conduct," Meyer told the attorneys for Biden and Roberts during a virtual hearing on Monday. "I will no longer allow us to dismiss clients from these hearings, because it is interfering with the progress of this litigation which is taking way too long to get over simple points."
Meyer issued the order after Biden's attorney was unable to answer whether Biden owned the abandoned laptop that became a subject of controversy during the 2020 election. Financial records discovered on the laptop have become an issue in the custody dispute.
Hunter Biden's presence at the Arkansas court could create a political headache for the White House and the Biden family. He has reportedly gone to great lengths to avoid getting served with legal papers from Roberts.
Hunter Biden’s lawyer, Brent Langdon, asked the judge on Monday to block an expert witness from discussing the financial records on the laptop, saying "there has never been an acknowledgment" from Biden that the laptop belongs to him.
"Well let’s clear that issue up right now," said Meyer. "Is it your client’s laptop or not?"
Langdon said it was "not my client’s laptop as far as I know. He’s never accepted that that’s his laptop."
The judge responded that Biden and Roberts needed to show up to all future court dates so questions like this could be addressed. The next hearing will take place on May 1.
At the May hearing, the judge is expected to rule on outstanding motions, including a name change request from Roberts asking to change their daughter’s last name to "Biden." Biden has demanded that the court block the name change, claiming the move would be damaging to the child due to the "scorn in the community for the Biden name."
Family law attorney Peter M. Walzer told the Washington Free Beacon that Biden’s objection to the name change was "very uncommon" and unlikely to succeed in court.
"I’ve never seen a litigation where a father didn’t want the [child] to take his name," said Walzer. "This is pretty unique."
Walzer said Biden’s motion sounded like it was motivated by personal interest rather than concern for the child’s well-being.
"He doesn’t want the child to have his name because it’s embarrassing to him, [but he] couches his legal briefing in terms of the child’s interest," said Walzer. "From his paper’s it’s ‘all about me.’"
"From his papers, it’s ‘all about me.’"
Marshall H. Moore, an Arkansas-based custody attorney with Moore, Giles and Matteson, agreed.
Child Support Case Judge Threatens Hunter Biden With 1 Year in Jail and $20K Fine
An Arkansas judge on Monday issued an order threatening Hunter Biden with up to a year of prison time and a $20,000 fine if he fails to provide financial information and appear in court next month to answer questions from the counsel of his child’s mother.
Last year, Hunter Biden opened up his paternity agreement with Lunden Roberts, the mother of his child, citing “a substantial material change” in his “financial circumstances, including but not limited to his income.” Hunter Biden’s payments are $20,000 per month, a calculation based on income.
Hunter Biden’s financials could reveal information about his family’s business deals and his anonymous art sales.
For example, they could reveal how much Hunter Biden earned from his interest in BHR Partners, a Chinese state-backed investment fund founded just days after Hunter and President Joe Biden visited China in 2013. Hunter Biden held a ten percent stake in BHR Partners through an entity called Skaneateles LLC. Documents obtained by Breitbart News revealed Skaneateles LLC is controlled by Kevin Morris, Hunter’s top attorney, who also paid Hunter’s IRS debts.
If Hunter Biden does not provide financial information and show up for the court appearance, the judge said he will face “six months in jail for criminal contempt, six months in jail for civil contempt, and a $20,000 fine payable to Ms. Roberts,” the Sun reported.
In early May, Hunter Biden appeared before the Independence County circuit judge, who ordered him to answer questions about his financials and sit for an interview under oath in a child support case against his daughter’s mother. The judge also scheduled a hearing for July to determine the child support dispute.
“Mr. Biden does not want to disclose his income and assets, says that he is somewhat financially destitute, while he lives on a mountain overlooking the Pacific Ocean in Malibu, has Secret Service protection, and enjoys his time abroad,” Roberts’s legal team wrote.
Hunter Biden’s court case in Arkansas is just one of his legal challenges. He faces a Justice Department investigation into potential tax and gun violations and is the center of the House Oversight Committee’s probe into the Biden family for nine potential violations.

Arkansas Judge Orders Hunter Biden Back to Court, Says Burden Is on Him to Avoid Jail Time
Hunter Biden has been ordered to appear in an Arkansas court next month to face questions about his financial status and defend himself against contempt allegations that could carry a penalty of up to six months in jail.
The Monday order from Arkansas Circuit Court Judge Holly Meyer came weeks after Lunden Alexis Roberts, the mother of Biden’s four-year-old daughter, asked the court to hold Biden in both civil and criminal contempt for failing to turn over requested financial information. Biden has been fighting to reduce his $20,000-per-month child support payments, which he says he can no longer afford.
The July 10 hearing could further complicate Biden’s legal issues, which include a federal tax probe and a House Oversight Committee investigation into potential influence-peddling by the Biden family.
Judge Meyer said Biden must appear in July to "show cause, if any exists, why he should not be held in contempt" and to "determine if a finding of contempt and sanctions are appropriate." The judge said she will consider a range of penalties, including fines and "incarceration for criminal contempt for a period of up to six months."
She added that Biden’s "ability to pay" child support "is or may become a critical issue in the contempt proceeding," opening him up to questions about his financial condition in court.
Biden "will have an opportunity at the hearing to respond to statements and questions about his financial status" and "is subject to an express finding by the court that he has the ability to pay," said Judge Meyer.
If Biden is held in contempt, the court could toss out his motion to reduce his child support payments, and another motion he filed to block his four-year-old daughter from using the "Biden" last name.
Roberts’s lawyer, Clint Lancaster, said in a contempt motion in May that Biden was "playing hide the ball" and has not turned over complete information about his income, assets, and investments. Lancaster said the court should hold Biden in contempt to make him a "believer in the rule of law."
Biden’s legal team countered that he has complied with discovery to the best of his ability, but he "does not have access to some of the information requested for various reasons."
The July 10 hearing would be Biden’s second public appearance in the case since it was filed four years ago. His first was last month.
Judge Meyer previously rejected requests by Roberts’s legal team to hold Biden in contempt, most recently in early May. She said at the time that the motion had "not been properly pled."
However, she also warned Biden at a May 1 hearing that there would be consequences for continuing to withhold financial records, and wrote in a recent order that the court "will not accept cryptic or vague answers to discovery and may treat such answers as a failure to answer."
