Hunter Biden’s advisers are clashing with Joe Biden’s White House over the first son’s legal defense strategy amid ongoing congressional and federal investigations into his financial affairs.
The latest flashpoint is Hunter’s proposed creation of a legal defense fund that would help pay for the 53-year-old’s high-priced lawyers, among them longtime Democratic fixer Abbe Lowell.
Axios reports that the fund could complicate Hunter’s efforts to ward off House Oversight Committee Republicans investigating the Biden family’s influence-peddling abroad — especially if contributions come from foreign entities.
