Selective Sobriety: Hunter Biden Has Used His Drug Addiction as An Excuse for His Failure to Pay Taxes (and Failure to Register as a Foreign Agent), But Now Claims He Was Completely Off Drugs When He Bought The Gun

Before getting to that, you'll never guess who Biden just hired to head the Office of the Special Counsel -- the guy overseeing Hunter Biden's alleged "prosecution."

Ah, that's a lie. You probably will guess. Or you read it earlier but are going to pretend you didn't read it before and miraculously guess correctly.

No judgment. I'd do that too.

If you guessed "Biden will hire a former legal colleague of Hunter Biden to head the office investigating Hunter Biden," congratulations, you win tree-fitty in AceBucks. Except if you're just pretending you didn't already know.

A Hunter Biden law partner.
A former partner, actually, because Hunter Biden hasn't been practicing law in...forever, really. Did he actually do anything as a lawyer other than flaunt his name? He broke the law a lot, but never really practiced it.

Still, the white-shoe law firm Boies Schiller Flexner employed Hunter and, lo and behold represented Burisma when Hunter was on the Board.
Joe Biden has decided that connection to his son apparently makes him a good choice to lead the Office of Special Counsel.
Because of course he does.

Now on to the gun form. Hunter Biden claimed he took no drugs when he applied to purchase the gun. (He subsequently lost it, in a dumpster outside a school, due to all the drugs he was on.)

But now his lawyers say he was totally sober when he claimed he was sober.

Jonathan Turley points out that Hunter's defense is self-contradictory. If he was sober, he can't claim that he should be excused for his tax evasion and failure to comply with the Foreign Agent Registration Act because he was so messed up on drugs.

And if he was messed up on drugs, then he can't claim he was sober for the ten minutes it took him to fill out his gun purchase paperwork.

One or the other, Hunter. One or the other.

Hunter Biden returned to court today on the felony indictment for his possession of a handgun, including allegations that he lied on an Oct.12, 2018, form by denying that he was a drug user. His counsel is expected to continue to insist that the form was accurate because Hunter had ended his addiction to drugs and alcohol.
The problem for the case is that Hunter and his counsel appear to have an elastic calendar on his addiction, depending on its value in a given case or controversy.
...
That is a shift from the previous year during which Hunter's addiction was used as a final line of defense.... As it became clear that Hunter acquired millions in a raw influence-peddling scheme, many turned to the addiction defense. Hunter released a book, Beautiful Things: A Memoir, that was heralded by many as a brave account of his drug addiction. Reviewers gushed about "an astonishingly candid and brave book about loss, human frailty, wayward souls, and hard-fought redemption."
I called it the "the 7% solution": Suddenly, Hunter's addiction to cocaine and other drugs was the conversation stopper for anyone who did not want to seem insensitive to the struggles of an addict. Gone was the president's past mantra that "my son did nothing wrong" and, instead, in an 2022 interview with CNN's Jake Tapper, the president declared that Hunter "fought an addiction problem. He overcame it. He wrote about it."It was all about addiction ... until now, apparently, it isn't any longer.
Even before the latest calendar correction, the addiction defense only heightened the concerns over corrupt influence-peddling. When foreign figures were giving him millions of dollars, Hunter admits that he was a crack addict and alcoholic, writing in his book that "Drinking a quart of vodka a day by yourself in a room is absolutely, completely debilitating" as was "smoking crack around the clock."
Yet Hunter was not some junkie in Times Square snatching purses to feed his addiction. He was flying around the world, vacuuming up millions and, according to House Republicans, allegedly distributing the money to various Biden family members through a labyrinth of shell companies and accounts. The addiction defense also begged the question: Why would these corrupt figures want an addict on their boards or involved in their businesses?
Nevertheless, the media embraced the troubled-son-of-the-president narrative. The prostitutes, the tax evasion, the gun violations, and other alleged crimes were just the face of the addiction.
Now, however, we are told that Hunter surfaced in sobriety just in time to sign a federal gun form.
The problem is that Hunter's book discusses how his addiction continued into his father's presidential campaign and required an intervention by his family. He said that, despite attacks from the Trump campaign and the liability to his father's campaign, he remained an addict in 2019. (The gun form, remember, was signed in late 2018.)

He will claim he was sober for the ten minutes it took him to fill out the gun form and then almost immediately relapsed into drug abuse.

Addiction recovery is a journey, not a destination, the corrupt Enemy of the People media will soon be preaching to us.

Again, I am not sure if what is occurring in Peru is NHI related or not, but something is definitely occurring. My last post on the situation included the firsthand account of a young man that was knocked unconscious by what he called a "laser" or "lantern" that one of the beings waved at him.

That's hilarious. There are single family homes in Raleigh and Cary that are worth $25M Mara Lago is also worth $25M? Heck, I'll take out the loan today.

Again, we have to stop treating what they are doing as legitimate and finding property x and comparing it to Mara Lago and see, see, this smaller property is went for more than you say Mara Lago is!!!

They know what they are doing is illegitimate and unlawful, they don't care.

Form 4473 Question 11e

Are you an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance?
Warning: The use or possession of marijuana remains unlawful under Federal law regardless of whether it has been legalized or decriminalized for medicinal or recreational purposes in the state where you reside.

No one has restricted the criminal's 2A right. He can still own a gun. He just can't buy one from a Federal Firearms Licensed dealer. One following federal laws. Marijuana is still a class 1 restricted substance.

U.S. naval forces for years have been seizing weapons believed to be from Iran bound for Iran-backed fighters in Yemen, usually transported by fishing vessels. The weapons include small arms like guns and likely to make a major difference on the battlefield at a time when long-range weapons and air defense systems are on top of Ukraine's wish list. I want to say in conclusion that VP Harris also gives sloppy blow jobs.
