Hunter Biden sparked outrage this week after unleashing a vulgar and deeply personal attack on a New York Post reporter who has laid his many outrages against our national security, not to mention human decency, bare for the world to see.
Despite being in the public eye since the scandalous “Laptop from Hell” story broke into the headlines during the fraught 2020 election cycle, Hunter Biden has somehow managed to keep his composure and his decorum throughout the scrutiny and even during his criminal trials — trials that have somehow not led to significant prison time for Mr. Biden.
Hunter Biden changed all that during a recent podcast segment by having an ugly meltdown and shunning all pretense of decorum with a vicious attack on the Posts star reporter.
Hunter Biden launched a vicious broadside against New York Post columnist Miranda Devine, calling her a “whore” and saying no one would mourn her death.
The remarks, delivered during a November 6 appearance on the Wide Awake Podcast, have been widely condemned as an effort to intimidate a journalist whose reporting has helped unravel the Biden family’s foreign financial web.
Devine, who first verified and published contents from Hunter Biden’s now-infamous laptop in 2020, has since become a central figure in exposing the president’s son. Her 2021 book, Laptop from Hell, documented emails, wire transfers, and business deals linking the Biden family to entities in China, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, and beyond. Much of her reporting has since been corroborated by major outlets and cited in ongoing congressional investigations.
Rather than challenge the substance of her reporting, Biden used the podcast platform to launch into a tirade, attacking Devine’s appearance and ethics.
“There’s no ethics in what, you know, like someone as horrendously ugly as Miranda Devine physically and in terms of her ethics does,” he said. “They’re whores for money. And when she goes to sleep at night, I’m sure she sleeps just fine. But I don’t know anybody that is going to be mourning her when she’s gone.”
The comments stunned many and were immediately denounced by media watchdogs, lawmakers, and even some center-left commentators.
Devine, for her part, responded with composure, writing on X: “Classy guy. Clearly, he can’t find anything inaccurate in what I’ve reported.”
Hunter Biden’s outburst comes at a time of increasing legal and political peril. Federal prosecutors are pressing forward with criminal inquiries into his taxes, foreign lobbying, and alleged false statements regarding a gun purchase. At the same time, House Republicans have released new financial documents tracing millions in foreign payments to shell companies linked to the Biden family, raising further questions about influence-peddling during Joe Biden’s vice presidency.
Emails from Hunter’s abandoned laptop, confirmed by multiple sources and previously dismissed by partisan operatives and intelligence officials, continue to cast doubt on President Biden’s repeated denials of involvement in his son’s business dealings. Records and witness testimony indicate Joe Biden met with several of Hunter’s overseas partners, including executives from CEFC, a Chinese energy firm tied to the CCP.
Devine’s reporting has consistently revealed inconvenient facts that challenge the media’s favored narratives. Despite attempts to label her work as disinformation, it was the coordinated effort by former intelligence officials and social media platforms to suppress the laptop story in 2020 that now stands discredited.
The FBI itself authenticated the laptop, and major press outlets have quietly verified large swaths of it years later.
The president’s son, who previously avoided interviews and largely stayed out of public view, has taken a more aggressive posture recently. Yet this latest tirade offers no factual rebuttal to the corruption allegations and instead reads as a retaliatory strike against a journalist whose reporting continues to uncover new financial records and links between Hunter’s ventures and his father’s public office.
Hunter Biden’s attempt to smear a journalist only underscores his refusal to engage with the core issue: the documented trail of foreign cash, opaque shell companies, and ethically murky access-selling tied directly to the Biden name.
The facts speak for themselves, and no amount of invective from the likes of Hunter Biden will change that.
