Boo-Hoo: Hunter's Grift Machine Has Run Dry So Now He Can't Afford to Litigate His Civil Cases

When Hillary crashed and burned in 2016, her family grift, The Clinton 
Foundation, took a hard turn toward the ground. It didn’t completely auger 
in, but the international contributors turned their car around like a John 
seeing his favorite hooker in cuffs.  

With all due respect to the Clinton Grift Machine, Joe Biden and his 
family have been running their money scam for a lot longer. Sure, it took 
years for the bagman to come of age, but Hunter Biden filled that role, 
and the rest was history. I used the past-tense because the grift is over.  

Turn out the lights.... the party’s ooooover.  

 
On January 20th, the party ended. The money died up. The grift hit a wall. 
You can use your own metaphor, but the point being, what happened this 
week, we knew, was inevitable. Hunter’s usefulness ended, and so did his 
source of income.  

The left pretended that Hunter had some talent. Either as a lawyer or, 
later, as an “artist.” We were told his paintings were, indeed, worth 
thousands of dollars – in fact, worth hundreds of thousands; but Hunter’s 
only talent was running interference for his corrupt pops. When Joe Biden 
became an afterthought on January 20th, Hunter Biden became irrelevant to 
the grift machine. 

With the money gone, Hunter is in a bit of a “tight” spot. Sure, his 
corrupt dad pardoned him for crimes he was already convicted of, and for 
potential crimes yet to be charged with. Hunter won’t end up in prison, 
but he still has plenty to do in a courtroom. 

The former president's son has civil lawsuits still pending. Hunter sued 
the guy who turned over his laptop. Almost two years ago to the day, 
Hunter sued the computer repair shop owner. I have to give it to his 
attorneys. They had some nerve: 

Hunter Biden is accusing the Delaware computer repair shop owner who 
worked on a laptop of trying to invade his privacy and wrongfully sharing 
his personal data for political purposes, according to new federal court 
filings. 

Biden’s lawyers also say that John Paul Mac Isaac opposed the presidential 
candidacy of Hunter’s father, Joe Biden, and that he gave Hunter Biden’s 
data to “political enemies” to help then-President Donald Trump in 2020. 

“Mac Isaac intended and knew, or clearly should have known, that people to 
whom he provided the data that he believed to belong to Mr. Biden would 
use it against then-candidate Joseph Biden and to assist then-President 
Trump,” Hunter Biden’s lawyers wrote in a court filing on Friday. 

 Now, Hunter is claiming he’s out of money. He can’t sell his “paintings.” 
No one wants to read his memoirs. 

The horror. 

The younger Biden also sued an aide from Trump's first term named Garrett 
Ziegler. Hunter accused Ziegler of “violating state and federal laws by 
creating a searchable database of Biden’s emails.” The suit accuses 
Ziegler of “accessing, tampering with, manipulating, [and] altering” 
content from a laptop connected with Biden. 

Sure, that lawsuit was massively ridiculous, but like every lawsuit, one 
must let it “play out.” I litigated against dozens of lawsuits that were 
massively absurd. But Hunter wants it to go away now. 

His court filing claimed:  

“Plaintiff has suffered a significant downturn in his income and has 
significant debt in the millions of dollars range. Moreover, this lack of 
resources has been exacerbated after the fires in the Pacific Palisades in 
early January upended Plaintiff’s life by rendering his rental house 
unlivable for an extended period of time,” Biden’s attorneys wrote in a 
court filing. 

“Plaintiff must focus his time and resources dealing with his relocation, 
the damage he has incurred due to the fires, and paying for his family’s 
living expenses as opposed to this litigation.” 

His dad leaves public office and the money dries up. Weird, isn’t it?  

My buddy Aggie thinks Hunter is holding some chips:  


I think she’s right. And, I think I called this months ago:
