Hours after Hunter Biden was granted a “full and unconditional pardon” by his father President Joe Biden, a social media post called him out for owing thousands in rent.
“So what happens to the $300k+ in back pay rent that Hunter Biden owes my family from 2019-2020?” Sequoia partner Shaun Maguire wrote in a post on X, reportedly referring to the Venice, California, home his family rented to the 54-year-old son of the Democrat lame-duck president.
“Thanks Joe,” Maguire added in a jab about the pardon.
So what happens to the $300k+ in back pay rent that Hunter Biden owes my family from 2019-2020?
Is that pardoned now?
Thanks Joe
(This is a true story)

When questioned about the “story” behind the post, Maguire went on to recount how Hunter Biden was an “Absolute sh-t bag” for allegedly stiffing the family for rent for over a year and trying to pay with his art.
yes sir

“Yup. True story. Hunter was our tenant in Venice, CA. Didn’t pay rent for over a year. Tried to pay w/ art made from his own feces,” Maguire claimed in the thread.

In response to comments on the thread, Maguire noted the Biden family was too “scary” to pursue legally.
It’s kind of a scary family to go after

Maguire emphasized that it was a “true story” and that he had “lots of proof.”
Lots of proof.

He further explained that the family could not access the property because Biden changed the locks and had Secret Service guarding him at the property.
He changed the locks and used secret service to enforce. We had no access to the property.

“Indeed, he tried to pay w/ a book of art made from his own feces. But those aren’t worth anything except when money laundering,” Maguire added.

Users on X continued to marvel at the “wild” tale.
No way crazy as hell

This is a wild development

This needs to be blasted everywhere. So ridiculous.
If Hunter Biden won’t pay what he owes then his dad Joe should.

To anyone wondering:
Back rent is a civil issue and a Presidential pardon does not absolve debts or resolve civil contractual disputes. So Shaun still has a valid civil case.

The good news is that a pardon can’t discharge a civil claim, the bad news is that you’re dealing with a Biden who never pays his debts. pic.twitter.com/WvuWvdbG8I

Maguire commented on the pardon in another post.
I have no issues with the pardon
I have issues with Democrats LYING
And then gaslighting about the LIES
And then using lawfare against the other side
And claiming they’re the ones lawfare is being used against
On the left, it’s lies all the way down https://t.co/XLcR7ccCjv
