Breitbart ^ | 02/06/2023 | Wendell Husebo

Hunter Biden, who is under investigation for tax fraud, has reportedly sold a total of about 12 paintings to anonymous buyers during his father’s term as president of the United States.

While the average yearly wage of an American artist is $73,013, Hunter has reportedly raked in hundreds of thousands of dollars as a novice painter. Previous reports indicated Hunter sold five paintings for $375,000 each in 2021. But according to a new estimate by a gallerist, Hunter’s has now sold about 12 paintings for less than his asking price of $500,000, Washington Post reported.

Hunter is not selling paintings. He is selling information and Docs. Adding a few colors and selling the information. How dumb does he think we are?

I was going to say, check the backside of the "canvases" he's painting on.

So THAT’S what the balloon 🎈 was looking for.

Art investments.

Now it makes sense.

A future Edward Gibbon will devote many chapters to just the biden crime family in “The Decline and Fall of the American Empire”. Maybe as many chapters as for the clintons/obamas.

Hunter Biden does not go to the pretense of “writing” a book, which would actually be written by a ghost writer, as politicians have done over the years, and pocket a multi million dollar advance from a publisher. He also does not make a quixotic race for President, drop out after the first few primaries, and pocket the contributions. His “art” is a type of Revelation of the Method, where the power brokers launder money in your face, irrespective of the obvious character of the “art” sales.

I would think his baby-mama might want (and be entitled to) a chunk of that . . .

These people live the life of extreme luxury. They do what they want, they’re untouchable, the government hired guns work for them. They have lots of hired muscle. They displayed that on Trump, when they conducted an armed raid on his private residence. An armed raid on a former president’s home. Who would have ever believed that?

I wonder, if I buy one of his paintings, do you think he could get his dad to open the Keystone Pipeline, cancel the Covid-19 mandate, drop the 64,000 IRS agents and finish building the border wall ? ? ?

This means the humiliation of having his art sold in a clearance sale. Under $500,000 each? 😪

It’s a mockery in your face. It’s so obviously money laundering. I’m sure the Republican’s will be right on it...

RE: didn’t have a book even with ghost writer....

In a humorous essay by Steve Martin he said ex-Piston Dennis Rodman was smart to have a co-author for his autobiography Bad As I Wanna Be.
Said Love in the Time of Cholera by Gabriel García Márquez would have sold much more like Rodman’s bestseller with an “as told to” helper and also that the word cholera was a turn off and the weather in the book was dank. Another turnoff.

I can almost picture a Jon McNaughton painting of Hunter Biden painting a self portrait that’s pre-sold for $500,000.00
