President Biden said Tuesday he is "very proud" of his son Hunter Biden who signed a plea deal on federal tax charges.
A reporter shouted a question about Hunter Biden Tuesday afternoon as the president was discussing artificial intelligence in San Francisco in his first public speech since news of his son's plea deal became public Tuesday morning.
A reporter shouted "Mr. President, have you spoken to your son today?" after Biden finished his speech and asked the press to leave.
The president gave a big smile as he said "I'm very proud of my son," echoing a statement from the White House earlier in the day.
Hunter Biden will plead guilty to two misdemeanor counts of willful failure to pay federal income tax, Fox News learned Tuesday.
