Happy Canada Day. Thanks to all the great Canadians like Don Cherry who were loud and proud of Canada even when it wasn’t trendy (cost him his job). Give Cherry the Order of Canada and put in the Hall of Fame. He’s a legend! Go Canada!

Can Hunter Biden Turn His Past Into a Personal Branding Superpower?

What if the guy everyone wrote off as the ultimate cautionary tale just cracked the code on rebuilding credibility in a cynical world?

Hunter Biden did not hire a fancy crisis PR firm. He is doing something far more powerful and human.
In the past few weeks, @HunterBiden has lit up X. He posted a heartfelt video marking 7 years sober, then unleashed a wave of sharp, humorous clapbacks that have racked up millions of views. From “It most definitely was not. I would never have forgotten my drugs” about the White House cocaine bag, to correcting trolls on crack versus meth pipes with deadpan precision.

And in a classic case of strange bedfellows (politics makes for the weirdest podcast pairings), he sat down with Candace Owens for a raw, tearful interview, talking addiction, redemption, and finding humanity across the divide.

As a long time observer of political strategy and brand builder, this feels like a deliberate, psychologically smart pivot.

Here is the play:

He makes regular emotional deposits by acknowledging the overdrafts.

• No denial, no deflection. Drugs, hookers, fraud, corruption, fake board seats, and a zombie father as President; he owns the dark chapters publicly. Most people have made bad decisions especially in youth or dark times. Hunter’s willingness to say, “Yeah, I was that guy… and here is how I crawled out,” feels refreshingly authentic in a world of polished personas.

Humor as trust deposits.
• Self deprecation lowers guards instantly. Each witty reply is not just entertaining; it is a small deposit into the public’s emotional bank account (a la Stephen Covey). Over time, these compound into real credibility.

The past becomes the bridge, not the barrier.
• Once trust builds, his history of struggle and perseverance makes him more relatable to everyday people who have messed up and recovered. It humanizes him in a way few politicians or their families achieve.

Crossing the aisle with earned capital.
• He is already dipping into political commentary, defending his family while highlighting perceived hypocrisies on the other side. Because he has built some goodwill through vulnerability first, these opinions land differently than pure partisan fire.

Compare to Trump’s style which some find entertaining and others aggravating, depending on perspective: lots of humor and occasional self deprecation, but the bravado stays at full throttle. It energizes the base but often leaves others feeling like they are being worked.

Hunter’s slower, more connective approach, admitting flaws while showing growth, may forge deeper, longer lasting emotional bonds with the broader public.

The deeper truth: In an era of distrust and government led misinformation, authenticity plus humility plus humor is rare currency. Hunter is betting that if he consistently makes deposits, he will eventually have the balance to spend on bigger conversations without instant rejection.

Will it work long term? Too early to say. But as a branding guy who loves watching humans be human, I respect the strategy. It is messy. It is real. And in 2026, that might just be what people are looking for. At the very least he’s providing much needed laughs to the world.

WTF timeline are we on. Someone called me the MAGA whisperer and I’ll gladly take the title. Left, right, D or R we all want the same things. We’re being divided on purpose by the Epstein Elite Oligarch class because as long as we’re at each other’s throats, they get fat and rich off of our misery. The second we figure out we agree on more than we disagree, they’re done. Love your neighbor. Be yourself. Radical honesty. No fucks given, no fucks taken. Everything else is just noise. (But still fuck Jake “Brick Tamland” Tapper on any time line)

Congrats Hoyt!

[SENS TALK @senstalk_]

The Ottawa Senators have SIGNED prospect Hoyt Stanley to a three year entry level deal!

The blueliner, who’s 6’3 and was drafted in the fourth round back in 2023, set career highs this year with his Ivy League NCAA team - Cornell - putting up 15 points (three goals) in 34 games.

In his entire NCAA career with Cornell, the hulking defender played in 105 games, putting up 38 points (seven goals) with a +/- of 32.

Known for being a strong defensive defenceman, the #Sens prospect was named one of the three finalists for the ECAC Hockey Best Defensive Defenceman award this year.

He also signed an ATO, making him eligible to play pro hockey to close out the year with Belleville. Looks like a pro debut is coming very soon! 👀

Welcome to the Ottawa organization, Hoyt!

I’m replying in the spirit of dialogue and belief that free debate leads us to better decisions. I’m fascinated why his comments are being met with such negativity.
Ozzy made this exact point in War Pigs. “ Politicians hide themselves away
They only started the war
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that role to the poor”

Fyi I lean right, however, I think @WabKinew is making a valid point regardless of his political perspective. The Epstein evidence clearly points to a worldwide pedophile and blackmail network involving individuals at the highest levels of government (across political parties), entertainment, media, banking, business, and even the British monarchy.
Almost all of those identified as having harmed children and/or facilitated their abuse continue to hold positions of power and influence decisions affecting people’s daily lives.
Why do people linked so closely to a massive and decades-long pedophile ring still have authority?
The moral question of when a young man or woman should be sent to die for a cause should not be made by people who have already demonstrated they don’t care about human life.
In any normal business, a board wouldn’t let an executive team linked to a criminal ring continue making decisions about the company or conduct their own investigation. Yet here we are.
