WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden has made it clear to his closest aides in no uncertain terms that he not only will reject any political advice that he try to limit his son Hunter’s public visibility but that he also doesn’t want to hear such suggestions, according to three people familiar with the discussions.
His message, as one of the sources described it, was: “Hands off my family.”
The blunt directive helps explain why in recent months the father-and-son public appearances seem to have increased in tandem with intensified scrutiny of Hunter Biden’s legal troubles.
But the public displays of parental support, to the dismay of some Democrats, aren’t just about a loving father or a stubborn president’s defiance. For Biden, keeping his son — a recovering drug addict — close means keeping him safe, people close to the president say. Behind the Hunter Biden photo-ops and the state dinner invitations, they say, is an existential concern that weighs on the president daily: If he loosens his grip on his son, who or what will replace it — and to what end?
“It’s consumed him,” a person close to the president said.
“There is a sentiment that Hunter should basically not be talked about and that he’s a liability,” said a person familiar with the White House dynamics involving the president's son. “And there’s another view from those closer into the Biden family that a vigorous defense is necessary, and they welcome that coming from the outside.”

He needs to be asked about Hunter every day, at every opportunity. He will crack.

What a crock! The biggest crimes were dine by then Vice President and now President Biden. Hunter should stay away from Joe because he’s corrupt and will ruin Hunter’s reputation!
I, on the other hand, recommend Hunter accompany Slow Joe everywhere. Maybe even get Joe a guest starring role in Hunter’s whores and crack videos.
Will Hunter tell the truth even if pardoned? We are dealing with mafia-like behavior. Omertà.
Cuffs work.
Even if pardoned, the civil tax matters are not discharged. The IRS sent me a notice recently that I omitted some innocuous schedule from a Tex return albeit the income was accurately noted on the 1040. Compare that to the treatment of undisclosed income by hunter and family.
Wonder how many babysitters Joe tried out, before he married the easiest one?
nope, he will wait until his last day of office for that
Imagine what would happen if the Feds “flipped” Hunter and he started talking about the things that happened to him while he was growing up.
But what about Pedo Joe's hands on OTHER people's families?:
“he resents that anyone would suggest that he distance himself from his son because of what he views as unfair and outrageous GOP attacks.”
Ha ha ha, just those meanie Republicans drumming up fake stories about Biden family corruption.
As if he could grasp and remember any advice five minutes later.
I’m kind of surprised that Hunter hasn’t been Seth Riched. The entire art money-laundering scam with anonymous purchases is hilarious when you think about it.
He married Alice Cooper’s look-alike and slandered a man who was the actual victim as Joe’s first wife was drunk and ran a stop sign.
Interesting.
One thing about Biden left alone he always triggers the trap Hunter and his 10% is living proof of it but it’s got out of hand and the price will be heavy.
The family will pay to much security has been squandered.
