Hunter is a true, out of control, cad. Hunter Biden Chooses to Meet With Potential Art Buyers, Causing Outrage (TargetLiberty.org) – Hunter Biden has been in the news a lot over the last few years for his allegedly shady business dealings. He’s currently under investigation by the DOJ for potential tax crimes. But that isn’t what’s causing outrage now. This time, people are upset about his plans to sell artwork. In early July, reports revealed the White House was working on an ethics plan to shield art buyers from Hunter so he wouldn’t know their identities. Now, it seems that plan has gone right out the window. On July 22, Press Secretary Jen Psaki defended the younger Biden after reports revealed he’d be meeting with potential buyers. Psaki claimed the actual buyers were going to remain anonymous. She said he isn’t going to have “any conversations related to the selling of art.” The press secretary claimed she believes this allows him to “work within his profession within appropriate safeguards.” The paintings are expected to sell for as much as $500,000 each And He’s one shameless son of a president, isn’t he? This is the same man that claimed he would not be meeting with people directly to sell his artwork. It did not take long for his tune to change on that entirely. Of course, Jen Psaki is more than happy to run interference for Hunter.
