Two of the Buyers of Hunter Biden's "Artworks" Identified, and Surprise, One is Hunter Biden's "Sugar Brother" Million-Dollar Benefactor, and Another Is a Longtime Biden Donor and Democrat Hack Who Just Got Paid Off with a Presidential Appointment

Remember when Hunter Biden sold mere copies of his "artwork" for $75,000 a pop -- $75,000 for a really good Kinko's copy -- and made $350,000 in one night?

So far, we know of $1.3 million in "art sales" by Hunter Biden. (And those are just the "art sales" we know of.)

They kept the list of this very exclusive club of Hunter Biden "Art" Collectors secret. The White House argued there was no problem with keeping the list of money giving obvious bribes to the son of the President (sic) secret, because Joe Biden had nothing to do with Hunter's "art" business, just as he had nothing to do with Hunter's "foreign bribery" business.

Well one purchaser has now been outed. And shock of shocks, it's not someone with a deep passion for art, whether of the real kind or of the Hunter Biden graft kind.

It turns out it's, get this, one of Joe Biden's loathsome political patrons.

First son Hunter Biden's novice artwork has raked in at least $1.3 million -- with buyers including a Democratic donor "friend'' whom his dad named to a prestigious commission, a report said Monday.
Elizabeth Hirsh Naftali, a Los Angeles real estate investor and philanthropist, bought one of Hunter's works, according to Business Insider, which cited sales records kept by his art dealer, the Georges Bergès Gallery of Manhattan.
Naftali was appointed by President Biden to the Commission for the Preservation of America's Heritage Abroad in July 2022 -- about eight months after Hunter's first art show, which took place in Hollywood.
It is unclear when Naftali bought her Hunter artwork or how much she paid for it.

I'm sure Karine Jean-Pierre will ably provide those facts to the public.

A Biden administration official told the publication that Naftali was recommended for her preservation board post by former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and that she didn't buy the position through the art deal.

Oh well as long as the gold-standard Biden Administration says it anonymously, then I have no further questions.

Meanwhile, Business Insider said the largest chunk of Hunter's art sales so far has gone to a single deep-pocketed mystery buyer -- who scooped up 11 artworks for a total of $875,000.

Can I take a guess at the Country of Origin of this Mystery Benefactor?

...
The outlet reported that one of Hunter's art buyers is his "sugar brother" Kevin Morris, a wealthy lawyer who reportedly lent him about $2 million to pay off back taxes.
It wasn't known whether Morris was the top buyer. Insider's report was the most detailed to date on the first son's art sales.

They're saying that Morris might have "bought" $875,000 of Hunter Biden's "art" after already having "loaned" him over two million dollars?!!

Oh, Kevin Morris -- the "sugar brother" who for some unknown reason "loaned" $2+ million of his own money -- or was it his own money? -- to pay off Hunter Biden's back taxes so that it wouldn't look so corrupt when David Weiss pled him down to some midemeanors?

And not only did he "loan" $2+ million of his own money -- or someone's money, laundered through him -- but now he's laundering hundreds of thousands of dollars to Hunter Biden through fake "art purchases"?

That Kevin Morris?

The guy who had Hunter Biden live with him, no rent paid, to help Hunter Biden get over his addictions... but who smokes a huge pot bong when his addicted-and-relapsed bud comes to visit?

EXCLUSIVE: Hunter Biden's lawyer Kevin Morris is seen smoking a BONG on the balcony of his LA home while clearly visible from the road during a visit from the president's son
DailyMail.com saw Hunter Biden's hotshot lawyer Kevin Morris smoking from a large bong on the balcony of his Los Angeles home on Thursday
Hunter was seen visiting Morris at his Pacific Palisades home at the time that Morris was pictured smoking on the balcony clearly visible from the street
The First Son's visit to his lawyer came after it a source claimed that a Ukrainian oligarch bribed Joe Biden and Hunter with $10million
By Josh Boswell For Dailymail.com
Hunter Biden visited his 'sugar brother' Hollywood lawyer Kevin Morris -- who was photographed appearing to smoke from a bong.
The First Son took a trip from his Malibu pad to the Pacific Palisades on Thursday to visit his attorney, after agreeing to plead guilty to federal tax crimes last month.
While Hunter was at the house, Morris was snapped on a balcony in plain view of the public street appearing to huff from a white bong, in photos exclusively obtained by DailyMail.com.
Seeing his attorney rip from a bong could bring unwanted flashbacks for the First Son, who photographed and videoed himself using copious amounts of drugs including crack cocaine on weeks-long benders for years, material from his abandoned laptop shows.
One of the criminal charges against Hunter is lying on a 2018 federal gun form that he was not an illicit drug user, when he admitted in his memoir to being a crack addict.
It is not clear what substance was in Morris's bong, and recreational marijuana use is legal in California. He did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The below account compares the sale price of this Hot New Artist Hunter Biden's pieces, with those of relatively-minor artists like Norman Rockwell, Salvatore Dali, and a little-known Spanish paint-splasher named Pablo Picasso.

As well as an Italian scribbler and inventor of vaporware named Leonardo DaVinci.

Winner? Hunter Biden, of course.

And to question this is to push discredited, debunked Russian Conspiracy Theories.

I wasn't just making a joke when I said that this was all just a Russian Conspiracy Theory.

That's what MSNBC claims: That this is a "conspiracy theory," and we really have no idea what this Confidential Human Source says because he was... speaking in Russian.

Which is a guess. No one has identified the CHS.

But of course MSNBC goes with "Russian Agent." Just muscle memory at this point, you know.

54 It's ridiculous to claim that keeping buyers identities secret is ethical as then they have no influence with the Bidens. You know both Huntercand Joe will know the buyer.

What they should do is to require that the buyer's identity be revealed and how much they bribed I mean bought the painting for. That's the only way to keep track of influence peddling.

55 Also Hunter got out of paying child support by using the value of his paintings which he dumped on his baby mama in lieu of actual money. They are absolutely worthless if they do come with political access to graft.
Louis Freeh gave $100,000 to Biden's grandkids hoping to get a consulting job with the administration. Can you imagine what such a job would pay if one was willing to plunk down $100,000 on the hope you might get a job?

She's put in a lot of thought and effort into a story that will die instantly if Devon Archer confirms this stuff on Monday.

I remember hearing somebody on some show saying Picasso was going through an old junk store one day, picked up a bicycle handlebar, put it to his head like it was a bull's horns.

This was supposed to be a testament to his genius as an artist.

That, and he would pay his bar tab by doodling something on a napkin. World class grifter, he was.

He has a laptop in which he behaves like a low life. People around him think him stupid. He will probably get bumped off or suffer and accident because he knows too much. I doubt anyone respects him and there are very few people who actually love or like him. Some winner.

He ruled in favor of the ACLU. I don't think this is a victory for us.

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) said Judge Tigar’s Tuesday ruling is a win for immigration advocates. The ACLU was involved in the case against the Biden administration.

“The ruling is a victory, but each day the Biden administration prolongs the fight over its illegal ban, many people fleeing persecution and seeking safe harbor for their families are instead left in grave danger,” Katrina Eiland, deputy director of the ACLU’s Immigrants’ Rights Project, said in a statement.

A trip to a granite place you might find interesting. Nature produces some incredible works of art. Not many that I can afford. I settled. But damn, if I had the money a center island that looked like a Van Gogh painting? I'd do that in a heartbeat.

Turns out it's not.

The policy the (Obama) judge struck down is similar to one he struck down during the Trump administration. Biden resuscitated it doubtless because Border Czar Kamala's work was THAT bad -- and it was unpopular in Biden circles evenso.

During my aborted formative years in art my jr. high art teacher gave me low grades on everything I did.

Then, when the composition was mixed media I glued trash to a piece of poster board and got an "A"

277 Wait till they find the art student Hunter paid $200 for that piece of art he put his name on.

Or do you think he actually painted it? C'mon man, this dude is a lazy drug addict - he bought it, likely at the flea market closest to where his dealer lived. Bet a little sleuthing can find the true artist.

283 There are simps in this state (Delaware) who post photos of themselves in front of S4B's beach digs with the oh-so-clever tag line, "If you know, you know." They'll never abandon the Syndicate.

Call it the Mob. That's the thing, lets call it what it is, in New Jersey, Philly, DC, up through all the shit until rural Maryland.

It's a different way of living. It's the idea of having the right connections and thus pushing the right shit. It's ... New England.

That attitude that simply assumes right makes right. The seed of New England Republicanism.

Artist: Pierre-Auguste Renoir
Title: Baigneuse assise
Sale Price: $482,500

Pretty sure we can all tell what "assisse" must mean, but you'll need to use your French to let us know what "Baigneuse" is

289 >>> There was a movement in the art world called DaDa. I think music was involved too. It was sort of anti-art art.

Dada was an artistic eff you to the horrors of WWI. Lots of absurdity, irreverence, spontaneity. Marcel Duchamps was one of those artists and I rank him as one of the most overrated of all time. His stuff is dreck. But he knew how to get noticed. Dali was one of the best.

Post it into Bing visual search.

Almost identical to paintings by Darlene Marschak, Loralee Chapleau, and Anna Dillion. You can buy any one of these for $200.

297 The Indian art/bribe scandal is quite noteworthy. It involved someone buying mediocre "art" from a close relative of an elected official. The payment was 2.64 Lakh USD, which is $264,000. (Lakh is their term for 100,000.)

I had to check which currency was being used in the international press, as $264,000R = $3,200 US - which is small potatoes even in India. The original Indian reports said 2 crore rupees (20,000,000 R) which is about $264,000 US. Still, the tens of millions taken in by the Big Guy's mafia should warrant hard time turning big rocks into gravel.
