Hunter Biden fled last week to South Africa for a luxury vacation — with round-the-clock Secret Service protection — avoiding a grueling deposition scheduled for this week in a California lawsuit.
California District Court Judge Herman Vera granted Hunter’s motion to dismiss the case Thursday after the former first son claimed he was too broke to continue suing former Trump staffer Garrett Ziegler and his nonprofit Marco Polo.
But photographs show Hunter was already in Cape Town the day the case was dismissed, staying in a $500-a-night beachfront villa described on its website as an “ultra-luxurious designer home with spectacular 180 degrees unobstructed views of the sea.”
...
Ziegler’s lawyers alleged to the court last week that Hunter had fled to South Africa to potentially “avoid his deposition in this case,” which was set for this week, after originally being planned for February.

Hunter and his South African-born wife Melissa Cohen were spotted walking around the high-end shopping district of Cape Town with their Secret Service detail this week in photos

The scandal-prone 55-year-old son of Joe Biden does not qualify for statutory Secret Service protection, which only applies to former presidents’ children aged under 16,
...
Guglielmi would not confirm that 18 Secret Service agents have traveled to Cape Town with Hunter.
...
Hunter is traveling with 18 agents — three shifts of four agents plus six backup agents — who are staying at a nearby four-star hotel, collecting per-diem payments for meals and renting two cars.
The cost to the taxpayer potentially would be a half-million dollars, at a time when the Secret Service is stretched thin.

Why hasn’t his secret service agreement been scrapped or modified to the same 6 months Trump had for his children?
Whoops!
re: Gugliemi - name sounds very familiar.
There is something lost in translation. From the Biden-speak dialect to regular human English, Hunter stated that he was...... broken, not broke. Most of the known universe knows that the Biden Crime Family has been “broken” for many, many moons.
Swore in court - via his lawyers - that he was broke to get out of a legal case. Literally same day flies to $500/d resort is S. Africa. Perjury with chutzpah! And not covered by Daddy’s auto-pen pardon. Meanwhile DC judge orders in the air deportees returned to US. So using same power order US law enforcement - his SS detail - to return Hunter to US and thrown in jail for contempt.
I don’t believe that a former President’s son is entitled to Secret Service protection!

So as an uneducated deplorable I would ask......WTF?????
Interesting.
Rubio expelled the South African ambassador from the US.
Hunter is a criminal on the run.
That’s why he thinks he’s safe in South Africa.
Yank his secret service protection.
Interesting connection.
Maybe Whitey Biden will get caught up in the insurrection down there.
Failed son of a failed President flees to a failed state.
Film at eleven.
Secret Service? Surely they mean private body guards paid for by some Biden family trust?
How do they know it is Secret Service and not a contractor service or private security?
So I can get lawsuits against me dismissed because I am broke?
I mean theres no bankruptcy filings needed?
And why would he need such massive security? After all, he is just a poor recovering drug addict who occasionally sells some finger paintings.
Not a good place for whitey these days.
He’s broke so, how is he paying for the flight, transportation, meals, hotel, etc???
I believe there are huge criminal dealings the Trump administration has uncovered about Hunter and the Biden crime family. We just don’t know about it yet.
Hunter fled to a country with no diplomatic relations with the US:
