By The FirstJoe Biden reportedly made a secret evening trip to the home of Hallie Biden, Beau’s ex-wife and Hunter’s ex-girlfriend, before she testifies in the First Son’s gun trial.
From Newsweek:
President Joe Biden‘s surprise visit to Hallie Biden’s home has raised eyebrows among conservative observers who pointed out that she’s expected to testify in Hunter Biden‘s federal trial in the coming weeks.
Users on X, formerly Twitter, questioned why the president made a nighttime visit to his daughter-in-law’s home in Delaware on Sunday, noting that his son is scheduled to stand trial on June 3.
But the White House pushed back on those observations, saying that Joe made the visit because it was approaching the anniversary of his late son Beau’s death. Hallie was married to Beau from 2002 until his death in 2015. She began dating Hunter in 2016 while Hunter was in the process of separating from his then-wife Kathleen Buhle. Hallie and Hunter’s relationship ended in 2019.
Asked if the president discussed the upcoming trial with Hallie during the visit, White House spokesperson Andrew Bates told the New York Post, “No. He visited her because of the approaching 9th anniversary of Beau’s passing.”
