Report: Hunter Weighs Launching Legal Defense Fund to Afford High-Powered Lawyers Costing $100K/Month
Breitbart ^ | 02-06-2023 | WENDELL HUSEBØ

Hunter Biden is reportedly weighing the creation of a legal defense fund to cover the charges of his high-powered attorneys, which experts estimate to cost at least $100,000 per month.

It is unknown who would run the fund and what types of “parameters or confidentiality rules would be adopted” to avoid compromising Hunter’s father, the Washington Post reported. It is unclear if foreign money would be accepted by the fund or who would be interested in defending Hunter from both the Justice Department and congressional probes.

Hunter has hired four top-notch lawyers to defend himself against potential charges of tax fraud and gun violations, along with nine congressional probes into potential violations, including wire fraud.

Hunter’s high-powered attorneys could be costing him more than $100,000 per month, legal experts told Breitbart News in December.

That pissant and his family have stolen quite enough from We The People to easily fund any legal team he can muster. Effem.

When Detroit’s Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick and his father were finally caught and prosecuted after stealing, embezzling and diverting millions of dollars a year for a long time, he claimed he was “indigent” and got the city taxpayers to pay for his defense. No modesty, no shame, no conscience.

Time for Hunter to get taxpayer money again.

Pffft......a little late for that one......about 50 years.

Why the heck would Humper need lawyer money? You mean the hot shot dimokrat lawyers would actually charge him money and not just share krak? I just assumed they’d work pro bonehead?

Hunter doesn’t want to spend his Hooker and Blow money on legal defense. So, begging for cash will do.

That’s for sure - what’s the problem? The taxpayers are already on the hook for his SS protection - the reason evades me tho’.

Ha.

Standing between a lawyer and his or her billable hours source is hazardous.

Last I heard Hunter was suing us (!) for being so mean to him.

That’s harsh. That’s almost twice his monthly rent at his dad’s own house that he doesn’t live in.

Where can he possibly launder that much money?

Hey Hunter, why don’t you get ten percent from The Big Guy?
