    Hunter Biden is our Prince Andrew.

    Not only is Hunter, Joe Biden’s wayward son, like the now
    missing Duke of York in many ways — particularly when it comes
    to chasing money and women — but they are similarly elusive as
    well.

    People (not reporters, of course) who are asking “Where’s
    Hunter?” could just as well be asking, ”Where’s Andrew?”

    Both have fallen off the face of the earth.

    Andrew, 60, is the second son of Queen Elizabeth and Prince
    Phillip. He was once second in line to the throne of England —
    behind Prince Charles — before he was pushed aside by Charles’
    offspring. Now, following a sex scandal, he is totally out of
    the running.

    Andrew is currently a person of interest in the FBI’s
    investigation into the late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and
    Andrew’s alleged sexual relationship with Virginia Roberts
    Guiffre when she was a teenager under Epstein’s control. Andrew
    has denied any wrongdoing but will not talk to the FBI.

    Neither will Hunter but, unlike Andrew, the FBI has, curiously
    enough, not asked Hunter anything, despite having confiscated
    his laptop and the questionable emails in it dealing with China,
    the Ukraine and his hopped-up life.

    Hunter, 50, being the second son of former vice president Joe
    Biden, who wants to be president, has been shielded by the
    corrupt mainstream media. And while there is no throne to
    inherit in the U.S., Hunter will continue to live royally,
    especially if Joe Biden, “the big guy,” is elected.

    Both Andrew and Hunter are divorced parents of adult children.
    Both served in the Navy of their countries. Andrew was an
    officer in the Royal Navy and, as a helicopter pilot, saw action
    in the Falklands War.

    Hunter, at age 43, was commissioned as an officer in the U.S.
    Navy Reserve in May 2013. The only action he saw was on the
    wrong side of the War on Drugs. He served for a month before he
    was booted out after testing positive for cocaine.

    Hunter is the only man in history to have pulled strings not
    only to get in the Navy but to get out as well. No wonder the
    left-wing media loves him.

    Doors ordinarily closed to average people automatically opened
    for Andrew, whose mother was the Queen of England , just as they
    did for Hunter, whose father was vice president. And both men
    took advantage of the business opportunities their perks
    provided.

    In other words, they used the position of their parents to get
    rich and, in Hunter’s case, apparently help the Biden family get
    rich as well by selling access and putting together dubious
    business deals with foreign countries.

    Andrew, who had been involved with British financier David
    Rowland in a Caribbean development business venture, allowed
    Rowland’s son Jonathan to join him on a taxpayer funded trade
    mission to China. Later, Rowland allegedly used the China
    mission to generate business for his family’s private Luxembourg-
    based bank.

    Hunter, according to emails obtained by the New York Post,
    arranged a meeting for his father, then vice president, with
    Ukrainian Vadym Pozharsky, a senior adviser to the corrupt
    energy company Burisma, which was paying Hunter $50,000 a month
    for a no-show job.

    Biden has repeatedly said that he had no knowledge of Hunter’s
    business dealings. He called the revelation a “smear.”

    The “smear” is Pozharsky’s email to Hunter which says, ”Thank
    you for inviting me to DC and giving me the opportunity to meet
    your father and spent {sic} some time together.” Some smear.

    Eight months later Biden threatened to withhold $1 billion in
    U.S. aid to Ukraine unless top Ukrainian officials fired
    Ukrainian Prosecutor Viktor Shokin who was investigating
    corruption at Burisma. He was fired.

    Biden bragged about it during a 2018 talk to the Council on
    Foreign Relations., Biden said, “I looked at them: ‘I’m leaving
    [Kiev] in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not
    getting the money. Well, son of a bitch, he got fired.”

    Another of the emails concerns Hunter’s 2017 business dealings
    with the Peoples Republic of China and how profits from a multi-
    million-dollar deal with a Chinese energy company were to be
    split with “20” for “H” and “10 held by H for the big guy.”

    “H,” of course, is Hunter, and “the big guy” is understood to be
    Joe Biden.

    Are the Bidens corrupt?

    Follow the money.
