Joe Biden's Hunter Biden problem is not going away

George Neumayr:
Say what you want about the Trump kids, none of them have been found with a crack pipe on them. The same can’t be said for Hunter Biden. I picked up the New York Post yesterday morning and found an informative reprint from The Intercept by Ryan Grim, who details Hunter’s dirtbaggery, including this revealing tidbit: “One particularly out-of-control bender, which included a crack pipe found in a rental car, took place while Biden was making $50,000 a month serving on the board of [the Ukrainian company] Burisma.”

Therein lies one of the obvious motives for his shameless cashing in on his last name. For years he has had a very expensive drug habit. Drugs aren’t cheap, and neither are loose women — two of Hunter’s favorite pastimes.

Earlier this year, Hunter got hit with a paternity suit by a woman in Arkansas. Then there are his Ashley Madison troubles: Hunter’s name turned up in its subscriber data after the dating site for adulterers got hacked. Popped, Hunter tried to explain it away as a dirty trick by the Russians. But reporter Patrick Howley traced the breached subscriber data back to the school where Hunter was teaching:

[A]ccount information shows that the profile, which was confirmed by a credit card purchase in 2014, was used at the latitude/longitude point of 38.912682, -77.071704. That latitude-longitude point just happens to exist on the Georgetown University campus, at an administrative building on Reservoir Road. And Hunter Biden just happened to be teaching there around the time the account was set up.

Hunter didn’t let his teaching stint at Catholic Georgetown interfere with his extramarital hobbies. He also sits on the advisory board for Catholic Charities in Washington, D.C. He is a chip off the old block, wrapping himself in Catholicism while blowing off its teachings.

Not that Joe Biden is as seedy as his son, although his inability to keep his hands off women may have proved formative for young Hunter. Another poor influence on Hunter was his low-rent lobbyist uncle, James Biden, who has been cashing in on his brother’s last name for years, according to Ryan Grim: “In trading on his father’s name and power to advance his career, Hunter Biden is following in the footsteps of James Biden, Joe’s younger brother.”
...
There is more.

The media seems bent on giving Hunter a pass to save Joe.  They are willing to overlook Joe's early onset of Alzheimer's and his willingness to sell his office to enrich family members like Hunter and Joe's siblings.  As the evidence mounts in support of the allegations of a sexual assault allegation against Joe, much of the media have decided to act as defense counsel if they mention it at all.  The media appears to be embracing the politics of fraud when it comes to Democrats they cover.
