Where in the world is Hunter Biden? That has been a question posed ever since the 2020 election, but the mystery of where exactly the president’s latchkey son is keeps swirling.
A couple of weeks ago, he surfaced in Ireland with his dad and Aunt Valerie. Prior to that, he was supposedly living out on the west coast, costing taxpayers at least $30,000 per month in Secret Service bills. Then on Monday, it was reported that the man once described as “one of the most consequential artists of this century” was living at the White House in order to duck the mother of his youngest child’s attorneys.
Now, it looks like he is shacking up at a Democratic donor’s $50 million home in a California vineyard. According to the Daily Mail, billionaire Joe Kiani is allowing Hunter to stay at his home in Santa Ynez. Kiani has been a major contributor to Biden’s presidential campaigns. Why would Kiani let the 48-year-old absent dad onto his property at all?
Well, the evidence suggests that the Bidens and Kiani have quite a nice business relationship that goes back for years. In 2020, Kiani helped bundle more than a million dollars for Biden. Kiani founded a company called Masimo, which has received 991 federal contracts worth $3,887,753 since 2021, according to the Daily Mail. In September 2021, Biden also appointed Kiani to the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology.
That apparent spoils system between the two-men piqued the interest of Congress in April of 2022, when Republicans sent a letter, stating, “Mr. Kiani’s close ties to President Biden, including an appointment to a White House board, creates the appearance that he is benefiting from his political contributions.”
Biden’s political adversaries also remarked that this was a troubling trend in his administration.
“Awarding lucrative government contracts to companies led by large Democratic donors is becoming a troubling Biden Administration pattern and raises questions about whether political contributions play a role in the decision to award federal taxpayer dollars,” the Republicans added.
Since at least 2012, Kiani has been having meetings with the now-president coordinated by Hunter, according to emails.
Hunter isn’t the only one of his generation who has been treated unusually kindly by Kiani. In 2018, Masimo offered the president’s niece, Caroline, a job paying $85,000 per month, with very good benefits, as well as stock options, according to emails from Hunter’s laptop.
Caroline rejected that offer, arguing that California’s economic climate made it too difficult to live on and that it was below her pay grade. Her qualifications at the time included running up a $100,000 tab on a stolen credit card, hitting a New York City police officer, and having a range of addictions. After rejecting that job offer in 2018, she would go on to get a DUI and crash her car into a Pennsylvania tree — though she avoided jail time.
As for Hunter, it’s unclear how long he plans to hide out in the Golden State, but it won’t be for too long. An Arkansas judge just ordered him to appear in court for every hearing relating to the child payment case brought forth by his baby mama. We’ll see if that actually happens.
Where will Hunter pop up next?
