The Hunter Biden Saga

I must be feeling especially charitable this morning, so I will not name any of those who proclaimed, on the basis of nothing whatever, that the Biden presidency would lead us back to decency.

When you think of decency you do not think of Hunter Biden. It’s a minimal assertion, one that easily puts paid to Joe Biden’s mindless twaddle about how he is proud of his crackhead son, Hunter.

Besides, didn’t Hunter write a book about his recovery from crack addiction? And, didn’t he receive a considerable sum of money for doing so? And didn’t a bevy of celebrities and authors write glowing blurbs for his sad ouvrage? The book is coming out next month.

Of course, I do not need to tell you, but the Hunter story is pathetic. The more important part, the part that is being investigated by federal officials, seems to have all the makings of a criminal conspiracy, an influence peddling scandal. We all understand that nothing will come of the investigation. Different people play by different rules.

As you know, reporting about Hunter has been tamped down of late. The sordid details have been dropped down the memory hole of history. With this exception, a story from the Daily Mail. Anyway, given that no election is pending, this story might not be canceled from Twitter. 

Anyway, the Bidens are the best people. As you know, when Hunter’s brother Beau died from brain cancer, the grieving Hunter took advantage of the situation to have an affair with Beau’s widow, Hallie. Naturally, the Biden family saw no problem in this liaison.

By now it is not news. What is news is the added fact that, while he was romancing Hallie, Hunter also took up with Hallie’s sister, one Elizabeth Secundy, a married mother of several children. Keeping it in the family, I suppose. One does not know what to say about the familial bonds between Hallie and Elizabeth, but seriously.

Anyway, the Daily Mail reports:

Hunter Biden had a controversial affair with his brother Beau's grieving widow Hallie, while exchanging raunchy texts, 'partying', and even renting a house with her sister, DailyMail.com can exclusively reveal.   

Hallie Biden's older sister, Elizabeth Secundy, who was recently separated from her husband of 15 years, referred to Hunter as her 'prince' and told him she loved him, in a series of text messages dating back to 2016. 

It continues, becoming slightly more sordid:

A text message exchange recovered from the laptop hard drive revealed a sexual conversation between Hunter and Secundy from September 2016 - at the time he would have been dating Hallie. 

Hunter offered to teach Secundy 'how to masturbate' and referenced buying her 'panties'.

Secundy, now 49, also referred to Hunter as her 'prince' and told him she loved him in the texts. 

Surely, it’s the kind of behavior that would make a father proud. But, it’s not all:

After raising some eyebrows for dating his sister-in-law, the former lobbyist was then revealed to have fathered a child with a DC stripper whose paternity he initially denied, and later married his current wife, Melissa, just six days after meeting her in 2019. They too now have a one-year-old child, named after Hunter's late brother. 

We will see whether Twitter cancels the Daily Mail now. Anyway, how's that for a little Biden family decency with your morning coffee.
