Amid raging accusations against President Biden alleging use of his former position as VP to benefit his family from foreign businesses, the House has taken a major step. A vote to open an impeachment inquiry into President Biden has been passed. These developments have brought his son, Hunter Biden, into the spotlight. To counter allegations, Hunter adopted a defense strategy that seems reminiscent of the Clinton era. Defending his father, he argued that suggesting these allegations constituted grounds for impeachment was 'beyond absurd.'
Notably, the Presidency seems caught in the scandal's amber, with continual rhetorical shift. While inconsistencies between campaign-era claims of having 'no knowledge' of these business dealings linger, even Hunter’s associates call these claims 'nonsense.' The question that emerges on whether the President had any knowledge or involvement in alleged influence peddling is met with denials from Democrats suggesting that President Biden was oblivious to it.
However, the counter-evidence is noteworthy. Concerns are pointed towards Hunter Biden’s remarks which suggest that his father had knowledge of the operations. The shifting picture painted by rhetoric and counter-evidence reflects upon an influence peddling operation being helmed at a massive scale.

Hunter Biden’s recent escapades in Congress have added fuel to the fire. His avoidance of testifying, coupled with his apparent contempt for Congress, may land him in further hot waters, potential contempt charges. The pedal-to-the-metal denials have led to him engaging in legal self-immolation. Congress's flagrant contempt against this defiant behavior might open another line of inquiry.
In the wake of these events, Hunter Biden's close quarters are claiming a selective and vindictive prosecution. However, this defense is challenged by facts laid by legal experts. In their view, if Hunter Biden did not boast the Biden surname, he would potentially already be in prison.
Hunter Biden stands accused of significant influence peddling – selling access to his father’s powerful position. This further confounds these allegations into a political paradox. The money trail is crucial, tracing where and how the money came into Hunter Biden’s accounts and what they expected in return. The resistance to deposition from Hunter reflects a deep reluctance to public disclosure. If there's nothing to hide, the facts will vindicate him. In the meantime, such public exposure might inform the American people on what's transpiring.
