AP’s shameless claim that Joe Biden never discussed Hunter’s business deals defies belief

Those of us who have written for years about the Hunter Biden scandal and the family’s influence-peddling operation routinely read media stories denying the facts and dismissing calls to investigate. This weekend, though, the Associated Press made a real whopper of a claim: that there is no evidence even suggesting President Joe Biden ever spoke to his son about his foreign dealings.

I’ve explained how the Bidens have succeeded in a Houdini-like trick in making this elephant of a scandal disappear from the public stage — by enlisting the media in the illusion. But this level of audience participation in the trick truly defies belief.

The Associated Press’ statement at this stage of the scandal was breathtaking but telling: “Joe Biden has said he’s never spoken to his son about his foreign business, and nothing the Republicans have put forth suggests otherwise.”

For years, the media have continued to boost President Biden’s repeated claim that “I have never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings.” At the outset, the press only had to suspend any disbelief that Biden could fly to China as vice president with his son on Air Force Two without discussing the latter’s planned business dealings on the trip.
