Poor Hunter Biden. First, his meal ticket father leaves office and disappears from public view (for which blessing many of us are breathing a sigh of relief), then his California house burns up, along with a bunch of his "priceless" art. The guy just can't catch a break.
On Saturday, we learned that Hunter's woes are worsening. He was facing an uncomfortable deposition in California, but a kindly judge allowed that case to be dismissed as Hunter's too broke to continue. So now the poverty-stricken former First Son has jetted off to Cape Town, South Africa, accompanied by his Secret Service retinue, to suffer from his poverty in a $500/night beachfront villa.
" 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.”"
Well, that doesn't sound so bad. After all, it looks like Hunter's Ukrainian options are out, so a luxury beachfront hotel in South Africa may be the next best thing. As it turns out, Hunter has been gifted some unusual legal foresight, as he headed out to South Africa before his case was even dismissed.
“He was in South Africa before the judge even decided the case,” Ziegler said Friday. “That means he is assuming his daddy’s

“Shopping, too? What’s next? And why does the ne’er-do-well son of a former president have Secret Service protection?
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, per the Former Presidents Protection Act (codified in 18 USC, Section 3056).
But Biden issued an executive memorandum before he left the presidency indefinitely extending Secret Service protection for his son, according to Trump administration sources.
This is something that, honestly, should be undone. Anything put in place by an executive memorandum, we presume, can be undone by an executive memorandum. If Hunter Biden, for all his grinding poverty, chooses to travel outside the country, especially to an unsettled place like South Africa, let him work out his own security.”.....
P
I hope he tries farming.
Who pays for this?
Surprised he didn’t go to Thailand.
rescind protection IMMEDIATELY! let the locals “protect” him. he can well afford it. please Mr. President...STOP THE BS AND TAKE DOWN THESE WHITE PUNKS ON DOPE! once and for all.
Trump should order his SS protection be removed.
I hope Trump puts a stop to it.
Hunter’s wife is the adopted daughter of a wealthy Johannesburg Jewish family. Wouldn’t be odd for someone like Hunter to be going through his wife’s money in addition to his other grifting.
$500 a night? That’s slumming for Hunter.
Who knew? Hunter is gifted w/ unusual “legal foresight.”
Seems he headed out to South Africa before his case was even dismissed.
He was lolling in his South Africa $500 a night digs before the judge even decided the case.
Sniffle-—Hunter knew daddy would make “the phone call” to the judge.....sob.
Well, he’s in South Africa. Don’t all Americans in South Africa get Secret Service protection?
They need it.
So, is South Africa one of the no-extradition countries?
And if it is, can the SS bring him back?
Why does this POS have SS protection? PDJT should pull it and make them pay for their own. STAT!
Or at least to someplace that doesn’t have a current extradition treaty with the US.
IF THAT DOCUMENT WAS ALSO SIGNED WITH AN AUTO PEN——
IT IS NOT VALID.
“Why does this POS have SS protection? PDJT should pull it and make them pay for their own. STAT!”
South Africa is an extradition country. File a bogus charge, extradite him back to the US and then hand him off to give his deposition. I know this is nearly impossible to do, but it would be very entertaining to watch.
How does that move help him? You can be extradited from South Africa.
