Hunter Biden Cites Financial Woes In Desperate Plea To Federal Judge

Hunter Biden, who claims that his declining financial resources have made it difficult to pursue legal action, asked a federal judge on Wednesday to dismiss his lawsuit against a former Trump aide that focuses on the publication of contents from a laptop that was allegedly owned by the former president’s son.

Biden’s lawyers urged U.S. District Judge Hernan D. Vera to dismiss the 2023 lawsuit against Garrett Ziegler in documents submitted to a federal court in California. According to them, Biden “has experienced a substantial decline in his income and has substantial debt in the millions of dollars range.”

Biden’s financial difficulties worsened, according to his lawyers, after the wildfires in the Pacific Palisades neighborhood of Los Angeles “upended” his life by rendering his rental home “unlivable for an extended period of time.”

In the letter, they stated that Biden “has had difficulty in finding a new permanent place to live as well as finding it difficult to earn a living” and that, “as opposed to this litigation,” he should focus his time and resources on relocating, fixing the damage to his rental home, and covering his family’s living expenses.

A request for comment on Wednesday was not immediately answered by Ziegler’s lawyer. Regarding the court filing, Biden’s lawyers chose not to comment.

In September 2023, Biden filed a lawsuit against Ziegler and Marco Polo, the company he founded, alleging that they violated federal and state laws by creating a searchable online database that contained 128,000 emails that were allegedly sent by Biden.

Ziegler, who worked as an aide to Trump’s trade adviser Peter Navarro from February 2019 to January 2021, had moved to have the case dismissed, but the judge hearing it denied his request.

In remarks last year, Ziegler called the lawsuit “completely frivolous.”

The judge mandated in September that Ziegler reimburse Biden’s legal fees, which came to about $18,000.

In a related court filing on Wednesday, Biden stated that he is “not in a position where I can borrow money” due to his massive debt.

After receiving feedback on his artwork and memoir, which his lawyers said were his primary sources of income in prior years, he said he had expected paid speaking engagements and appearances, “but that has not happened.”

In the two or three years prior to the lawsuit, Biden sold 27 pieces of art for an average of about $54,500, but he has only sold one piece for $36,000 since then, he said, describing declining profits from his art sales.

Biden also detailed a decline in book sales, claiming that during the six months that followed the lawsuit’s filing, he sold roughly 1,100 copies of his book, down from over 3,100 between April and September 2023.

Biden’s financial difficulties and attempts to raise more money, including a legal defense fund that eventually failed, have been widely covered by NBC News.

Last year, Biden entered a guilty plea in a federal tax case after being found guilty on federal gun charges. He was about to be sentenced in the gun case in December when President Joe Biden pardoned him.

The Shepherd Dog Barked at His Owner’s Coffin and Trampled the Flowers: When the Coffin Was Opened, the Attendees Were Shocked

The Shepherd Dog Barked at His Owner’s Coffin and Trampled the Flowers: When the Coffin Was Opened, the Attendees Were Shocked The day of the funeral had come, and the funeral procession slowly made its way to the cemetery. Among those present was the officer’s family, with whom he hadn’t been in contact for almost five years. They had traveled from far away that morning. By the coffin, his colleagues — officers in strict uniforms — were already waiting. And next to them, with his head lowered and a heavy gaze, walked the dog — a German Shepherd named Max. Max was not just a pet. He was the deceased officer’s partner, a service dog who had gone through dozens of operations with him. When the warehouse was robbed, and the officer died under strange circumstances, Max was there. Since that day, he hardly ate, didn’t play, simply stared into the void and whined. Now, he sat by the soldiers’ feet, right by the coffin, which was covered with colorful flowers. People quietly cried. And then Max stood up. His ears perked up, and his nose pressed against the edge of the coffin. He sniffed the lid, then suddenly jerked back, growled… and began barking loudly. This was not an ordinary bark. People flinched. Several officers rushed to the dog, thinking he couldn’t control his emotions. — Take him away, — whispered one of the women. The dog struggled to get to the coffin, howling, scratching at the wooden lid with his paws. The commander standing nearby frowned. He knew this dog. Max never barked without a reason. — Open the coffin, — he said firmly. — What? Why? — the relatives protested. — OPEN IT. When the lid was slowly lifted, silence hung over the cemetery. Everyone froze for a second… then a loud scream of horror was heard. The continuation in the first comment  There was not the right person in the coffin. Not at all. A strange face, a strange uniform, a strange body. It was someone else. Max growled softly but relieved — it wasn’t his owner. He was right. Later, it was revealed that a fatal mistake had occurred at the morgue: the tags had been swapped. The bodies of two men — the officer and a civilian — had arrived almost simultaneously, and in the rush, one had been issued in place of the other. The real body of the officer was found a day later in a different hall. He was buried properly…

We left our disabled son with the Doberman, and half an hour later, we heard the terrifying bark of the dog

My husband and I were busy with household chores and left our four-year-old, paralyzed son with our Doberman, Tara  Who could have thought what would happen half an hour later… At first, our child and the dog played happily together, but after a few minutes, we heard loud, terrifying barking. My husband and I rushed outside in a panic, thinking the worst, fearing Tara had hurt our son, but what we saw shocked us to the core… The continuation is in the first comment below  Our son was born with a severe diagnosis – a disability related to the musculoskeletal system. Until he was three years old, he couldn’t walk. Doctors said there was a minimal chance that he would ever get up, but we held on to that hope with all our strength. Every day we prayed, watching him crawl around the house, seeing him longingly watch other children outside. He had no one to play with – his peers didn’t understand his condition, and we, the adults, couldn’t replace a real friend. That’s when we decided to get a dog. We wanted him to have at least one real friend. We chose a Doberman from the shelter. We named her Tara. At first, Tara kept her distance. She avoided us and especially stayed away from our son. We thought we had made a mistake. But then everything changed. Tara began to approach the boy, lie next to him, let him touch her face, and bring him toys. They became friends. They were inseparable. We, the parents, sighed in relief for the first time in a long while. The boy smiled, laughed – and all thanks to this dog. We trusted Tara so much that we would leave them alone in the yard while we took care of household chores. And then one day… A piercing, heart-wrenching bark shook the house. It was so loud that we thought our hearts stopped. We rushed outside in a panic, thinking the worst. We were afraid Tara had hurt our son. But what we saw stunned us to the core. Our four-year-old son was standing. HE WAS STANDING, holding onto the stroller. His knees were trembling, his hands tightly gripping the handles, and beside him stood Tara, barking – as if calling us, as if shouting, “Look! Look what he has achieved!” I started crying. We both rushed to our son. He looked at us with fear, but in his eyes, there was something new – confidence, strength. It was a real miracle.

A strange car stopped, and someone inside threw out a black garbage bag — suddenly, the bag moved

The driver was driving silently, staying close to the center of the road. On the passenger seat, an old dog was dozing.  Then, when nothing seemed out of the ordinary, a car appeared ahead. A strange car was slowly moving forward. At one point, it slowed down, the back door opened slightly — and a black garbage bag was tossed onto the side of the road. The car immediately sped up and disappeared around the bend. The driver tensed up. The dog growled and cautiously lifted its head. He slowed down and stopped. The garbage bag on the side… moved. His heart pounded in his chest. He got out of the car and approached the bag. It was muddy and soaked. The man knelt and touched the bag. At that moment, something suddenly jerked. When he saw what was inside, he nearly fainted  Continued in the first comment  With trembling hands, he took out a knife and carefully cut open the bag. Beneath the plastic layer was some fabric. And from inside, a tiny child’s hand appeared. Alive. He pulled back, shocked. Then he gently unwrapped the fabric. In front of him lay a child. A little boy. About two years old. His face was covered in mud, his lips pale, his eyes closed. He wrapped the boy in his jacket, picked him up, and carried him to the car. The dog whimpered softly and licked the boy’s cheek. The child sighed — and went quiet again. The man got behind the wheel. His fingers were shaking. Now what? Police? Hospital? Or… He drove to the hospital. Later he saw the news. A child had gone missing. Two years old. The parents — nowhere to be found. Most likely fled. A week later, he applied for temporary guardianship. A month later — permanent.
