Hunter Biden Whining Because Donkeys Don't Buy His Paintings Anymore!

[army judge]

Hunter Biden is struggling to make money and is now requesting to drop a lawsuit he filed in 2023 on account of his lack of funds.

In a court filing on Wednesday, Biden outlined his precarious financial situation exacerbated by the recent Pacific Palisades fire and a sudden inability to sell his paintings and books.


"Since late 2023 and through today, my income has decreased significantly," Biden said in the filing. He said his two main sources of income, selling his paintings and copies of his memoir, "Beautiful Things," have dried up in recent months.

"In the 2 to 3 years prior to December 2023, I sold 27 pieces for art at an average price of $54,481.48, but since then I have only sold 1 piece of art for $36,000. Similarly, for my book sales, in the six month period before the statements (April 1, 2023 through September 30, 2023), based on the September 30, 2023 statement, 3,161 copies of my book were sold, but in the six months after the statements, only approximately 1,100 books were sold," the filing says.

"Given the positive feedback and reviews of my artwork and memoir, I was expecting to obtain paid speaking engagements and paid appearances, but that has not happened," Biden said.


In 2023, Biden filed a lawsuit against former Trump White House aide Garrett Ziegler and the company he founded, Marco Polo. Biden accused Ziegler of violating both state and federal law in accessing the contents of Biden's now-infamous laptop, abandoned at a Delaware computer store in 2019.

Biden requested that a federal judge drop the lawsuit so he can focus his restricted resources elsewhere.

"Ultimately, this dismissal is necessary so I can focus my time and resources dealing with my relocation, the damage I and my family have incurred due to the Pacific Palisades fires, and paying for my family's living expenses as opposed to this litigation," Biden wrote.


Critics have raised doubts about the nature of Biden's art sales for years. The amateur artist routinely brought in large sums of money for art pieces from anonymous buyers. In 2021, The Wall Street Journal editorial board called on then-President Joe Biden, Hunter's father, to explain the nature of his son's art business in the interest of transparency.

For Some Reason, Hunter Biden Can’t Sell His Paintings Anymore

Nothing all that new or notable about that phenomenon. Relatives, friends, and associates of those who have power, wealth, and/or fame find themselves the recipient of a variety of benefits from those hoping to gain some favor or access to that famous/rich/powerful person. If those benefits last long enough some of them start feeling like they are entitled to those benefits. Then when their relative/friend loses power, wealth or fame all those benefits dry up leaving them left wondering what to do next. Republicans, Democrats, conservative, liberals, people of every color, etc all have had hangers-on who cash in on their success. Articles like that one pop up regularly when some famous person's light fades. Trump had his own hangers-on who were left adrift after his first term ended. The most obvious, and cringeworthy, example is Rudy Guiliani.

Sigh, I'm seeing an increase in crassness over the last four months or so.

Yes, there have been, and will always be, "camp followers". Sadly, even Georgetown and Yale grads seem to have developed "acute" cases of CRASSNESS.

I'm looking forward to the return of civility, gentility, and politeness.

Among my life's achievements/accomplushments/accolades and titles, I'm most proud to claim, I'm an officer by proclamation of the president, a gentleman by act of Congress.

My commission was earned in the rice paddies and jungles of Nam. It was a battlefield promotion, and we prevailed, but the VC managed to slaughter 199 new ARVN Rangers, along with their newly promoted Company Commander, Captain Nguyen. Only six of the company survived, along with my small contingent of MACV advisers/trainers.

Despite the losses, thanks to brave/skilled US Navy and Air Force F4 pilots, along with the support of three nearby artillery fire bases, we counted 950 dead VC.

Surliness, along with crassness, will disappear, sooner or later, as it was never loved.

Another reason I enjoyed my military service, the greeting of the day. Greeting as in good morning, good afternoon, usually followed by a sharp, snappy hand salute.

Don't hold your breath...

Don't hold your breath...

Everything is cyclical.
Nothing lasts forever, other than death, which is eternal slumber.
Nothing is forever, but as everyone knows, life, just as television, offers many repeats.

It make take awhile for that given the strong passions of the day, and not just in politics. The U.S. moves back and forth between periods of contention, anger, instability, intolerance, and hatred and periods of peace, social stability, civility, unity, and acceptance of others. Before the civil war tensions were worse than today, with some members of congress bringing weapons into the Capitol to potentially use against their opponents if fights — some of them actual fist fights — got out of hand. After the Civil War it took some time but, with the notable treatment of the former slaves, native Americans, and other nonwhite persons, the nation managed to forge a new sense of unity and purpose. We may overcome our current state of division but it will take an effort from persons across the spectrum of races, nationalities, ages, sexual identity, and political views to temper their outrage and anger at those different from themselves and understand that simply being different doesn't equal being a threat.

No worries, I'll wait.

I've learned to be more patient the older I get. But with each passing year I get a bit closer to being six feet under. I'd like to see the return of a more unified America before then.
