Hunter Biden: “My dad in 1972 took a vow he would never own a stock or a bond and he kept that vow over 50 years of public life. He retired from the presidency as having probably the lowest net worth of anyone that ever entered the presidency. Meanwhile, he got tagged with this idea of the Biden Crime Family and all of that crap. Donald Trump is selling 100K early access to his Truth Social tweets which is just a front-running for insider trading in the open”

“A family in the Middle East booked me for millions, only for 3 people to show up. The daughter made me perform ‘Lonely’ for 2 hours while laughing. That’s when I realized I was just a jester to them.”

Hunter Biden: “This whole Sleepy Joe thing. If that’s the standard, then why aren’t we having the 25th Amendment right now? The man literally falls asleep in a room full of his entire cabinet sitting behind the Resolute Desk and that is not an exaggeration or unfair. You literally can look at the tape of him with an entire cabinet behind him sitting in a chair and he’s sleeping, he’s out”

I talked to @KingJames earlier today and he said he is going back home where it all started. LeBron is off to Cleveland. I thought he was gonna have his last with Steph but it is what it is - Home is the Best there is. Plus, it would be great winning another championship there
