Disgraced first son Hunter Biden turned on his father Joe in a wide-ranging podcast interview this week, acknowledging that the 46th president’s lax immigration policy and move to pull US forces out of Afghanistan were both catastrophic failures.
“We need vibrant immigration,” the 55-year-old told “The Shawn Ryan Show” during a five-and-a-half hour conversation that dropped Monday.
“But we don’t want immigrants that are coming here illegally, draining us of resources, and being prioitized above people that are actual, literal heroes, that are still recovering from 21, 20 years of endless war — or anybody else in our society.”
During Joe Biden’s presidency, an estimated 2.4 million immigrants entered the US each year, according to the Congressional Budget Office — with a Goldman Sachs analysis finding that 60% crossed the border illegally.
Earlier in the interview, Hunter claimed that his father’s White House had secured an agreement from Republicans to back a sweeping border bill negotiated by Sens. James Lankford (R-Okla.), Kyrsten Sinema (I-Ariz.) and Chris Murphy (D-Conn.).
