The New York Times tries to rebrand Hunter Biden
By Andrea Widburg
“Louche” is an old-fashioned but useful word popular in the 1920s. It means someone disreputable but nevertheless has a fashionable appeal, like 1920s artsy types who experimented with weird drugs and sex but were beloved among sophisticates. That word came to mind when reading a New York Times essay about Hunter Biden as an “ironic icon” and “antihero.” The Times grudgingly acknowledges that he’s neither but tries to rebrand him as a reformed middle-aged man.
Even before 2020, everyone knew Hunter Biden had serious drug addiction problems. He was kicked out of the Navy and rolled in and out of addiction programs. It was also public knowledge that, after his brother, Beau, died of cancer, Hunter had an affair with Beau’s widow, Hallie. That’s creepy.
Our knowledge expanded when Hunter abandoned his computer with a repairman. Now that he owned the computer, the repairman was so disturbed by its contents (which suggested that the Democrat candidate had a son who was a national security problem) that he handed it over to the FBI, which did nothing. He then took it to Rudy Giuliani, and from there, it became public.
