Hunter Biden deposition reveals devastating family financial situation

A recently released deposition transcript reveals that former First Son Hunter Biden believes his family is flat broke.

The deposition is the result of an ongoing case between firm Winston Taylor and Biden over alleged unpaid legal fees, with the company claiming the former first son owes them $17 million. They say they have not been compensated for their work “representing him in criminal prosecutions, congressional investigations and defamation suits against his critics,” according to Fox News.

“My family doesn’t have any money, and it’s not their debt anyway,” he said, according to the transcript. “I don’t own anything of any value other than — and I don’t know the value of it — my paintings which I painted myself. So that’s it. And I don’t even have any other assets at all, stocks, bonds, anything like that, savings accounts.”

“I don’t have any assets. I don’t own a car. I don’t own a phone,” he added, later stating that the law firm was aware that he would not be able to make the payments and says the parties agreed to “work something out.”

Meanwhile, Winston Taylor reportedly attempted to contact Biden donors within the party to recoup some of their losses by having them agree to cover some of his legal expenses.

Sources “familiar with” former President Joe Biden’s finances appear to substantiate these claims.

“Upon leaving office, the former president had accrued roughly $800,000 in personal debt and was burdened with increased property taxes on their $2.7 million Delaware home, according to a source familiar with his finances. Biden also has had trouble booking paid speaking engagements, a common source of funds for former presidents, owing to his unpopularity and fears of angering President Donald Trump,” the outlet reported.
