President Joe Biden awarded Hunter Biden’s friend, Bobby Sager, with the Presidential Citizens Medal on Thursday, underscoring Hunter’s influence over the octogenarian.
Sager, a photographer and philanthropist, earned the award after he allegedly created opportunity for low-income people abroad, including Palestinian women artisans.
Sager is also a self-described “selfish” person who became friends with Hunter only in the last two years, NBC News reported.

How much did he pay for a Hunter Original painting?
EC
I thought, “This has to be The Bee…” 😄
Wrong again. 😑
This man has cheapened the Presidential pardon. And now the President’s citizen medal.
He may as well stand at the border handing them out.
Sordid doesn’t even begin to describe the Biden Crime Family.
The left (both in the U.S. and the world) has managed to drag the following “awards” into the sewer:
Nobel Peace Prize (Arafat & Dorkbama, the Muslim eunuch quota boy)
Nobel Economics Prize (Kruger)
Presidential Citizens Medal (Biden - whole lots)
Further proof (if needed) that the left takes bodacious Obamas on everything they touch.
Everything the rats touch is rendered worthless
“friend”?
the ONLY thing Joe Biden has consistently done throughout his entire career in government is to skim cash from the American taxpayer and THUMB HIS NOSE us as if we’ll never catch him. and he was right. what difference, at this point, would it make when he can’t even remember what room he’s in. one can only hope that when he claims he’s innocent in the afterlife that he WILL be forced to remember every stinkin’ thing he has ever done and be held accountable. he’s too far gone in this life to pay for his crimes. but other than that,Joe’s a nice guy.
Was it an award for Not getting thrown out of the Navy, not banging his Sister in Law, not impregnating a stripper, not failing to pay his taxes, or for Not violating Feral Gun Laws?
Nobel Peace Prize (Arafat & Dorkbama, the Muslim eunuch quota boy)
Nobel Economics Prize (Kruger)
Presidential Citizens Medal (Biden - whole lots)”
Excellent observation that is accurate.
A: Crocheted bombs by these people are treasured Ramadan gifts.
Q: Who are Palestinian women artisans?
Any award given by Biden should be referred to as a “Sc*mbag” award.
More likely "dealer".
Doesn’t the majority party have final say on committee members?
WT actual F! Yeah, them important paletoonian womxn(?) artists huh? 🖕
Hunter’s friend must have been his pipe salesman?.
I just watched Biden award 7 Medals of Honor. 6 posthumously.
ndtv.com-——The outgoing Biden administration has relaxed rules for H-1B visas that will make it easier for American companies to hire foreign workers with special skills and facilitate a smoother transition from F-1 student visas to H-1B visas, a move that is likely to benefit thousands of Indian tech professionals.
The most sought-after H-1B visa is a non-immigrant visa that allows US companies to employ foreign workers in specialty occupations that require theoretical or technical expertise......mostly from India.

President Joe Biden and his family were given tens of thousands of dollars in gifts from foreign leaders in 2023, according to an annual accounting published by the State Department on Thursday, with first lady Jill Biden receiving the single most expensive present: a $20,000 diamond from India’s leader.
The 7.5-carat diamond from Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi was easily the most costly gift presented to any member of the first family in 2023, although Jill Biden also received a brooch valued at $14,063 from the Ukrainian ambassador to the United States and a bracelet, brooch and photograph album worth $4,510 from the president and first lady of Egypt.
President Biden also received a number of expensive presents, including a commemorative photo album valued at $7,100 from South Korea’s recently impeached President Suk Yeol Yoon, a $3,495 statue of Mongolian warriors from the Mongolian prime minister, a $3,300 silver bowl from the sultan of Brunei, a $3,160 sterling silver tray from the president of Israel, and a collage worth $2,400 from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
Federal law requires executive branch officials to declare gifts they receive from foreign leaders and counterparts that have an estimated value of more than $480. Many of the gifts that meet that threshold are relatively modest, and the more expensive ones are typically — but not always — transferred to the National Archives or put on official displays.
The $20,000 diamond to Jill from India was retained for official use in the White House East Wing, according to a State Department document, while the other gifts to the president and first lady were sent to the archives.
Vanessa Valdivia, a spokesperson for Jill Biden, said the diamond will be turned over to the archives after the Bidens leave the White House. She did not say what it was being used for.
Recipients also have the option to purchase a gift from the US government at its market value, although that is rare, particularly with high-end items.
Word has it Biden’s sister is called in for servicing him in a pinch.
