Hunter Biden opens up about father’s election loss

‘America Reports’ panelists Matt Gorman and Jonathan Knott react to Hunter Biden’s first post-election interview, where he discusses his father’s loss on a podcast.

A newly active X account bearing former first son Hunter Biden’s name drew mockery from GOP lawmakers and prominent social media personalities after posting its first message Tuesday.

"Your laptop’s reputation precedes you," Tennessee Sen. Marsha Blackburn wrote in response to the "@HunterBiden" account.

Fox News Digital reached out to X and Hunter Biden's art gallery to verify if the account belongs to the former president’s son, but did not receive confirmation. The account has garnered thousands of followers and interactions since Tuesday, when it launched its first message.

"I'm Hunter Biden. You've never actually heard from me," the account blaring the former first son's name posted.

The account's profile reads: "Artist. Author. Recovery Advocate."

Hunter, 56, has re-emerged in the public spotlight as he attempts to rebuild his image following years of controversy involving drug addiction, legal troubles and scrutiny surrounding his personal life.

The X account, @HunterBiden, was first launched in 2013, according to a Fox News Digital review, but posted its first public message on Tuesday. Hunter Biden's art gallery website is linked to the X account, while the art gallery's website links to the X account, a YouTube page and a Substack account.

The tweet sparked a wave of mockery aimed at the younger Biden, as well as a handful of accounts quipping that the former first son would allegedly launch a 2028 run.

"We’ve heard plenty," said Republican Indiana Sen. Jim Banks responded to the account.

"Trust me, we've heard and seen ENOUGH from you," Republican Missouri Rep. Jason Smith chimed in.

Other social media users quickly piled onto the alleged Hunter Biden post, resurfacing past controversies and even floating him as a potential political candidate.

"Oh this oughta be good," said conservative commentator Nick Sortor in an X response.

"Very real chance he doesn’t remember that we have, in fact, heard from him in hours of podcasting before now," said Fox News contributor Mary Katharine Ham.

"The 2028 Dark Horse Candidate," wrote one X user, while another added "He’s running."

Hunter Biden has been involved in a string of controversies spanning his foreign business dealings, tax and gun charges, and scrutiny tied to his family’s political connections.
