You Might Not Like It, but Hunter Biden’s Shenanigans Are Real News
WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT HUNTER
The mainstream press shouldn’t ignore the president’s son’s questionable business practices.

Hunter Biden’s Scandals Are Real News, Like It or Not
The mainstream press shouldn’t ignore the president’s son’s questionable business practices.
The troubled presidential scion is in the news again and raising questions about his father, President Joe Biden. This unwanted attention has also renewed questions about the media’s relative lack of interest in the younger Biden’s highly questionable business interests during the 2020 presidential election.
Last week, Politico reported: “The New York Times is still digging into Hunter Biden’s business relationships.” The Gray Lady sued the State Department to get emails about Hunter Biden that were sent or received by the US Embassy in Romania. It will be interesting to see what, if anything, these new emails reveal.
Although it garnered more attention on the right than in the mainstream media, last September, Politico reporter Ben Schreckinger, author of The Bidens, confirmed the validity of some of the controversial emails that surfaced during the 2020 campaign—including an email with a Chinese oil executive, referencing equity to be held for “the big guy.” (The big guy was Joe Biden, according to the recipient, Tony Bobulinski, a business partner of Hunter’s.)

Some, like Politico’s Schreckinger and The New York Times’ Ken Vogel, have spent considerable time doing just that. But let’s be honest, if this were any other president’s son, the coverage would have been through the roof.
Even without these post-election revelations and allegations, there was always an appearance of impropriety. We know Hunter was paid a lot of money to serve on the board of a Ukrainian gas company, apparently without ever visiting Ukraine and without any discernible expertise in the energy field. And his father just happened to be the point man there for the Obama administration.

I’ve just explained why the story didn’t get the attention it probably deserved in 2020, but what about in the future? By suing the State Department, The New York Times has signaled that they are serious about investigating the new Hunter Biden revelations. That’s a good start.
Media outlets and investigative reporters should pursue new allegations and leads aggressively, regardless of where that takes them. They shouldn’t let their fear or dislike of Trump guide their reporting.
The credibility of the media is at stake. And in the unlikely event that (as Schweizer’s reporting would suggest) Joe Biden has been compromised by a foreign government, the stakes are a lot higher than that.
Commentary:
Wow! The Daily Beast, the New York Times! Has the man behind the curtain had enough of Biden?
Why does Matt Lewis preface it with, “You May Not Like It?” Who is he placating?
Evidently, there are many on the left who believe NO sin by a democrat rises to the level worthy of investigation.
On the other hand, is Matt Lewis providing cover for his cohorts in the Ministry of Propaganda.
We know this much. Up till now, the majority of the MSM is not made up of real journalists - they’re Progressive Marxist/DSA Democrat butt boys.
The Post has a good series on Hunter and his laptop fiasco, including another series by the Daily Mail.
It's no secret that Biden, his son and brother James have created a crime family.
Then there's Joe's views on guns, and crime.
If he was so intent on prosecuting criminal caught with illegal guns, why don't he start with his son.
