The Biden family brand suffered another humiliating blow.
Hunter Biden went on a podcast and revealed something shocking.
And Hunter Biden just admitted one financial fact that left his father fuming.
The "starving artist" is broke and desperate
Hunter Biden appeared on podcaster Shawn Ryan's show for a five-hour interview where the former first son spilled his guts about how broke he really is.
"I've got $14, $15 million in debt that I have no idea that I'm going to be able to pay off," Hunter told Ryan.
The 55-year-old blamed his financial troubles on litigation costs from multiple lawsuits he filed against people who exposed the contents of his infamous laptop from hell.
"Litigation sucks," Hunter whined. "I've been tied up in criminal and civil courts."
Hunter tried to paint himself as a victim with nobody coming to his rescue.
"Nobody's riding to the rescue for Hunter Biden," he complained. "My dad, you know, entered the presidency as the poorest man to ever take the office. And he left the presidency, you know, not poorest, I mean, he's fine, but he has no, we have no generational wealth."
That claim about Joe Biden being the "poorest man" to ever take office is laughable considering the millions the Biden family raked in from foreign influence peddling operations.
But Hunter expects Americans to believe there's no Biden family money buried somewhere when the evidence of their corruption is overwhelming.
The art grift crashed when dad lost power
Hunter's get-rich-quick schemes all revolved around selling access to his father.
When Joe Biden had power, Hunter had buyers for his abstract "art" that looked like something a kindergartner could paint.
Between 2021 and 2023, Hunter sold 27 pieces of artwork at an average price of $54,481 each — raking in nearly $1.5 million total.¹
But once Joe Biden's poll numbers tanked and Democrats started panicking about Trump's comeback, the art buyers vanished.
Since late 2023, Hunter has sold exactly one painting for $36,000.²
The same collapse happened with his memoir Beautiful Things, which went from selling 3,161 copies in a six-month period in 2023 to just 1,100 copies in the following six months.³
"Given the positive feedback and reviews of my artwork and memoir, I was expecting to obtain paid speaking engagements and paid appearances, but that has not happened," Hunter admitted in court filings.
Translation: Nobody wants to pay Hunter Biden when he can't deliver access to the Oval Office anymore.
Hollywood lawyer kept the Biden corruption machine running
The real story Hunter's sob story exposes is how Hollywood attorney Kevin Morris bankrolled the Biden family's damage control operation during Joe's presidency.
Morris "loaned" Hunter at least $6.5 million to cover his tax debts, legal fees, rent, car payments, and other personal expenses.⁴
Morris also bought nearly $875,000 worth of Hunter's artwork, accounting for more than half of his total art sales.⁵
The whole arrangement stinks of a pay-to-play scheme where Morris kept Hunter — and by extension Joe Biden — out of political hot water by making his financial problems disappear.
House Republicans grilled Morris about his financial support for Hunter during their impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden.
Morris claimed he was just helping a friend who was "getting the crap beat out of him by a gang of people" — referring to conservative media exposing Hunter's corruption.
But the timing tells the real story.
Morris met Hunter at a Joe Biden campaign fundraiser in 2019, then started bankrolling him just before the 2020 election when Hunter's tax problems could have sunk his father's presidential campaign.
The Biden business model is officially dead
Hunter's financial meltdown proves what conservatives have known all along — the entire Biden family operation was built on selling Joe Biden's political influence.
When Joe had no power to sell, Hunter had no income.
The art buyers who paid absurd prices for amateur paintings weren't buying art — they were buying access to the President of the United States.
The speaking engagements Hunter expected would materialize after his memoir's success never happened because nobody wants to hear from a washed-up first son with nothing to offer.
Wait, it gets worse. Hunter's rental in Los Angeles got trashed in the January Palisades Fire and now he can't find anywhere to live.⁶
The grift is over. Hunter's got no income, no skills anyone actually wants to pay for, and $15 million in debt hanging over his head. The only thing he ever had to sell was access to Joe Biden. Now that daddy's out of office, nobody's returning Hunter's calls.
Joe Biden spent four decades in Washington building a family brand based on corruption and influence peddling.
Now that he's out of power, the entire Biden enterprise is worthless.
And Hunter's crying poverty while sitting on $15 million in debt is the perfect ending to the Biden family's disgraceful political dynasty.
