    Yet Hunter’s investigation is for him using his name for his monetary gain, and signing
    a gun permit. Yet no GOP investigation demand on Trump’s son for taking $2 billion?

    THE NEW YORK TIMES

    Hunter Biden’s Tangled Tale Comes Front and Center

    Federal prosecutors could decide soon whether
    to indict the president’s son on tax and gun charges,
    and he faces a fresh round of hostile congressional
    hearings. But a close look at his story shows that it
    differs in important ways from the narrative
    promoted by Republicans.

    The way Republicans tell it, President Biden has been complicit in a long-running scheme to profit from his position in public life through shady dealings around the world engineered by his son, Hunter Biden.

    Taking a first step in their long-promised investigation, Republicans on the House Oversight Committee on Wednesday demanded information about the Bidens’ banking transactions from the Treasury Department. And in an earlier report on the Bidens
    intended to lay the groundwork for hearings they plan to hold, they said they had evidence “demonstrating deliberate, repeated deception of the American people, abuse of the executive branch for personal gain, use of government power to obstruct the
    investigation” and more.

    The real Hunter Biden story is complex and very different in important ways from the narrative promoted by Republicans — but troubling in its own way.

    After his father became vice president, Hunter Biden, a 52-year-old Yale-educated lawyer, forged business relationships with foreign interests that brought him millions of dollars, raised questions about whether he was cashing in on his family name, set
    off alarms among government officials about potential conflicts of interest, and provided Republicans an opening for years of attacks on his father.

    And after the death of his brother, Beau, in 2015, Hunter descended into a spiral of addiction and tawdry and self-destructive behavior.

    He is sober now and no longer entangled in foreign business deals. He is a visible presence in his father’s life — his oldest daughter was married at the White House in November, and he attended a state dinner last month.

    But his travails remain front and center in Washington in ways both legal and political.

    David C. Weiss, the U.S. attorney for Delaware, is closing in on a decision about whether to prosecute Hunter Biden on charges stemming from his behavior during his most troubled years.

    Don't worry, the house will get Hunter under oath and we will see. Right along with the FBI that lied about the notebook story and coerced social media to suppress it.

    This is going to be very amusing.

    Worry and see what? The question was about Trump's kid and $2 Billion.
    .

    Right along with the FBI that lied about the notebook story and coerced social media to suppress it.
    .

    That's another thing, the FBI lying to protect Trump.. (That is what you meant, wasn't it?)
    .

    This is going to be very amusing.
    .
    Yea, you trying to show how the FBI "coerced social media."
