This is a joke, right?
According to a White House press release this week, President Biden is nominating an old law buddy of son Hunter Biden to lead the Office of the Special Counsel —the very same office that has faced increased pressure to investigate embattled First Son Hunter Biden.
Did you gasp? Yeah, we’re with you. But Biden’s corruption knows no bounds.
From The White House Press Release:
Today, President Joe Biden announced his intent to nominate Hampton Dellinger to serve as Special Counsel, Office of the Special Counsel.
The U.S. Office of Special Counsel (OSC) is an independent federal investigative and prosecutorial agency. OSC’s basic authorities come from four federal statutes: the Civil Service Reform Act, the Whistleblower Protection Act, the Hatch Act, and the Uniformed Services Employment & Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA).
Dellinger and Hunter Biden worked together at law firm Boies Schiller Flexner. And according to The Free Beacon, “In 2014, Hunter Biden tapped Boies Schiller Flexner to represent Burisma Holdings, the Ukrainian energy firm where he served as a board member.”
“Hunter Biden and Boies Schiller Flexner’s crisis management and government response team developed a public relations and lobbying strategy to help Burisma, according to emails from Biden’s laptop,” Free Beacon confirms. “Dellinger served on Boies Schiller Flexner’s Crisis Management and Government Response team, though it is unclear if he did any work for Burisma.”
“But emails show Dellinger and Hunter Biden did cross paths on numerous occasions at Boies Schiller. The duo arranged a lunch date in February 2014. They also attended a dinner party for Boies Schiller partners in March 2014.”
Given Hunter Biden’s legal team’s history with pressuring (threatening) whistleblowers, should Dellinger really be put in charge of an agency whose duty it is to protect government whistleblowers?
