There’s a convicted felon in White House meetings these days, and no one is quite sure what to make of it, according to a new report.
Hunter Biden, who was convicted last month of three felonies for lying about his drug abuse when he bought a gun, has been participating in White House meetings, NBC News reported Tuesday, citing sources it did not name.
His role began Monday when he joined his father, President Joe Biden, at the White House after a weekend stay at Camp David in Maryland.
The extent to which Hunter Biden is involved in policy or politics is uncertain, with NBC News citing sources saying he was seen “talking to senior White House staff members.”

One source said he “popped into” some meetings and listened in on some phone calls between the president and his advisers.
That source said Hunter Biden emerged as a close adviser during the Biden family retreat at Camp David to plot strategy after the president’s disastrous debate performance on Thursday.
Another source told NBC News that some senior White House staff members have reacted to Hunter Biden’s presence by saying, “What the h*** is happening?”
The report said Hunter Biden is a strong voice for Joe Biden staying in the race as other Democrats say he should end his bid for a second term.
Hunter Biden spent his whole life getting rich off his dad’s influence. From China to Ukraine, Hunter traded on his access to Joe and the levers of power in Washington.
Now, Hunter has free rein over White House staff and policy.

Asked for a comment, White House spokesman Andrew Bates told NBC News that “Hunter came back with the President from their family weekend at Camp David and went with the President straight into speech prep” for Biden’s response to the Supreme Court ruling on presidential immunity.
“Hunter doesn’t trust” his father’s aides, the New York Post reported Tuesday, citing a source it did not name.
“I think Hunter wants to be there, and POTUS isn’t going to say no,” the source said.
The Post said Hunter Biden was not only at the White House on Monday evening but Tuesday morning as well.
Oh great, Hunter is running the country. This should be good

Mike Howell, the executive director of the Oversight Project at the Heritage Foundation, said the president’s son is there out of self-interest.
“It’s just a pure and simple massive interest in his dad staying president so he can pardon not only Hunter, but Joe and the rest of the family for the crimes they committed, and probably Merrick Garland, too, for his role in the cover-up,” Howell told Fox News.
Hunter Biden faces a September trial on federal tax charges.
A Note from Our Deputy Managing Editor:
“We don’t even know if an election will be held in 2024.” Those 12 words have been stuck in my head since I first read them.
Former Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn recently made that comment to Floyd Brown, founder of The Western Journal.
And if the leftists and the elites get their way, that’s exactly what will happen — no real election, no real choice for the Electoral College, and no real say for the American people.
The Western Journal is fighting to keep that from happening, but we can’t do it alone.
We work tirelessly to expose the lying leftist media and the corrupt America-hating elites.
But Big Tech’s stranglehold is now so tight that without help from you, we will not be able to continue the fight.
The 2024 election is literally the most important election for every living American. We have to unite and fight for our country, otherwise we will lose it. And if we lose the America we love in 2024, we’ll lose it for good. Can we count on you to help?
With you we will be able to field journalists, do more investigative work, expose more corruption, and get desperately needed truth to millions of Americans.
We can do this only with your help. Please don’t wait one minute. Donate right now.
