‘Hunter Wants To Make Sure...': White House Lashes Out At Biden's Son For Berating Trump
The White House on Tuesday criticised Hunter Biden following his foul-mouthed tirade targeting US President Donald Trump over deportations. In an interview with YouTuber Andrew Callaghan, Hunter dropped six F-bombs in under 30 seconds, slamming Trump as a 'f—ing dictator thug" for deporting violent illegal immigrants to a prison in El Salvador.
White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson hit back, accusing Hunter of misplaced priorities amid the fallout of Joe Biden's border policies. 'A CBP agent was just shot in the face by one of the criminal illegals Biden let into the country, but Hunter just wants to make sure someone is around to clean up his hotel room after benders," she posted on X.
'This sort of callous, self-absorbed maliciousness from the entire Biden Crime Family is exactly why Joe Biden left office with record-low approval ratings," Jackson said in a separate statement to Fox News.
Jackson's pointed use of the word 'bender" appeared to be a jab at Hunter Biden's long-documented struggles with drug addiction. The former US president's son has openly acknowledged his past substance abuse, including crack cocaine and alcohol, which featured prominently in his 2021 memoir Beautiful Things. Over the years, leaked photos and videos have surfaced showing him in various states of drug use. It has been repeatedly weaponized by critics of the Biden family. Hunter is also facing federal gun charges linked to his alleged drug use, with prosecutors accusing him of lying about his addiction when purchasing a firearm.

In the profanity-laced rant, Hunter said, 'Am I not supposed to feel for someone? Am I going to be like all these Democrats say, 'You have to talk about and realize that people are really upset about illegal immigration'? F–k you."
He went on, 'How do you think your hotel room gets cleaned? How do you think you have food on your f–king table? Who do you think washes your dishes? Who do you think does your f–king garden?"
Hunter continued, 'Who do you think is here, by the sheer f–king grit and will, who figured out a way to get here because they wanted to give their family a better chance and [Trump's] somehow convinced all of us that these people are the f–king criminals."
Acting ICE chief Todd Lyons also took a swipe at Hunter, calling the remarks 'idiotic." Speaking to Fox News, Lyons said, 'To make comments like that is crazy. Under previous administrations [Obama, Biden] illegal immigration was normalized. That's exactly the problem we're dealing with now".

The US Air Force command has issued a ban on the handgun, pending an investigation. As of now, the dead airman's name has not been released. 'We are deeply saddened by the loss of a valued member of our Mighty Ninety team,' Col. Terry Holmes, 90th Missile Wing commander at the FE Warren AFB said in the release.

Trump was informed he was named in Epstein files? Here's what White House said
US President Donald Trump was informed in May that his name appeared in the Jeffrey Epstein filed, and the information was given to him by Attorney General Pam Bondi, a Wall Street Journal report said on Thursday. A message calling on President Donald Trump to release all files related to Jeffrey Epstein is projected onto the US Chamber of Commerce building.(AFP) However, the White House has denied the report as "fake news", blaming the Democrats and liberal media for fabricating it. "This is nothing more than a continuation of the fake news stories concocted by the Democrats and the liberal media," White House spokesman Steven Cheung was quoted as saying by news agency Reuters. What did the WSJ report say? The publication has claimed that Pam Bondi reviewed files related to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and found Trump's mention in it "multiple times". Bondi and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche then informed Trump of the development, the publication further reported. The WSJ report also claimed that besides Trump, the Epstein files named many other high-profile figures. However, WSJ also said that "being mentioned in the records isn't a sign of wrongdoing". While the White House was quick to dismiss the report, Bondi and her deputy also issued a statement, without directly addressing the WSJ report. "Nothing in the files warranted further investigation or prosecution, and we have filed a motion in court to unseal the underlying grand jury transcripts," the officials were quoted as saying by Reuters. "As part of our routine briefing, we made the President aware of the findings." The report also claimed that the officials told Trump in May itself that there were no plans to release documents related to the probe as "the material contained child pornography and victims' personal information." Trump-Epstein ties and the files Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein were once friends but their ties are now under scrutiny, amid a growing demand for the release of all government files on the sex offender's alleged crimes. The duo shared a good camaraderie in the 1990s but had a falling out in 2004 over eyeing the same property at Palm Beach. In 2019, Trump said that they had a "falling out" and hadn't spoken in 15 years. While there was a period when the two shared a friendship, there is no evidence linking Trump to the sex offender's crimes. The Jeffrey Epstein files contain important information, like flight logs, contact lists, clients list, court records etc., linked to the sex offender and his activities. While some parts of the files have been released, large portions of it still remain sealed and there are growing demands to release them.
