First Son’s Sad ‘Denials’

-

For years, Hunter Biden and his associates have denied that the “big guy” mentioned in an email about one of the first son’s shady deals was Joe Biden, yet now Hunter’s admitted it in a congressio­nal deposition — amid whining and crying about the political persecutio­n he’s experienci­ng.

Yes, he’s tried to wave it away, claiming that the email from business partner James Gilliar proposing a 10% stake for Joe was merely a “pie-in-the-sky idea.”

But he’s admitted it. And all the obfuscatio­n and furious denial are up in smoke.

“Why do you ask such a dumb question?” Joe barked at a Post reporter who dared raise the issue. Not so dumb now, is it, big guy?

Hunter’s claims that his father wasn’t involved in his business were long in tatters thanks to revelation­s that Joe regularly popped into meetings and onto phone calls with Hunter and prospectiv­e associates, who often ended up giving Hunter enormous amounts of money.

Like Vadim Pozharskyi, an executive at Ukrainian energy firm Burisma, which started paying Hunter a million dollars a year in 2014. Or Russian oligarch Yelena Baturina, who may have handed a Hunterowne­d company $3.5 million just 10 days after Joe showed up at a dinner.

Hunter’s “dinner” defense: “I believe that he probably had a Coca-Cola and a bowl of spaghetti.” If it was so innocent, why did Joe’s campaign pretend it never happened?

The First Son’s line on his $5.1 million shakedown text — “I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled” — to state-linked Chinese energy firm CEFC? He was “high or drunk.” But CEFC still came through with the cash.

Now, to be clear: Hunter & Co. know the laptop damns them. It’s why he, his dad and their lackeys spent years pretending that Hunter’s laptop wasn’t his.

The evidence is beyond clear (despite the Biden mafia’s attempt to muddy the waters with their LLC cash laundry).

All Hunter has left in defense are these obvious, desperate lies.
