Summary
Robert Hunter Biden, born February 4, 1970, is an American attorney and businessman, and the second son of U.S. President Joe Biden. He has held diverse professional roles including lobbyist, banker, and investor in hedge funds, venture capital, and private equity. Biden was a founding board member of the Chinese investment company BHR Partners and served on the board of Burisma Holdings, a Ukrainian natural gas producer, from 2014 until April 2019. Since early 2019, he and his father have been the subject of unsubstantiated allegations regarding business dealings in Ukraine. In June 2024, he was convicted of three federal firearms-related felony charges for illegally owning a gun while a drug user, and in September 2024, he pleaded guilty to tax charges. In December 2024, President Biden pardoned him for federal offenses committed between 2014 and 2024. Biden also began presenting his artwork as a painter in 2020. A controversial New York Post article in October 2020 concerned a laptop allegedly belonging to him, which contained numerous emails; while its authenticity was initially questioned, The New York Times and The Washington Post later reported some emails were authentic, though no clear evidence of criminal activity by Biden had surfaced from its contents as of September 2022. The related document highlights Meta's history with censorship regarding the Hunter Biden story, which its CEO Mark Zuckerberg reportedly regrets.

Robert Hunter Biden (born February 4, 1970) is an American attorney and businessman. He is the second son of former president Joe Biden and his first wife, Neilia Hunter Biden. Hunter Biden was a founding board member of BHR Partners, a Chinese investment company, in 2013, and later served on the board of Burisma Holdings, one of the largest private natural gas producers in Ukraine, from 2014 until his term expired in April 2019. He has worked as a lobbyist and legal representative for lobbying firms, a hedge fund principal, and a venture capital and private equity fund investor. Since early 2019, Hunter and his father have been the targets of false allegations that Joe pressured Ukraine to fire a prosecutor to protect Hunter, which intensified after the New York Post published an article in October 2020 about a laptop computer that had belonged to Hunter Biden. Biden was convicted of three federal firearms-related felony charges in June 2024 after he had admitted to illegally owning a gun while a drug user. His tax affairs have been under federal criminal investigation since late 2018, and in September 2024, he pleaded guilty to all of the tax charges. In December 2024, Biden's father pardoned him for all federal offenses committed between 2014 and 2024, including any potential offenses not yet discovered.

View on DBPediaRobert Hunter Biden (born February 4, 1970) is an American attorney who is the second son of U.S. President Joe Biden and his first wife Neilia Hunter Biden. Biden is also a hedge fund, venture capital, and private-equity fund investor who formerly worked as a lobbyist, banker, public administration official, and registered lobbyist-firm attorney. Biden was discharged from the U.S. Navy Reserve shortly after his commissioning due to a failed drug test. Biden served on the board of Burisma Holdings, one of the largest private natural gas producers in Ukraine, from 2014 until his term expired in April 2019. Since the early months of 2019, Biden and his father Joe Biden have been the subjects of unsupported claims of corrupt activities in a Biden–Ukraine conspiracy theory pushed by then–U.S. President Donald Trump and his allies, concerning Hunter Biden's business dealings in Ukraine and Joe Biden's anti-corruption efforts there. Biden was a founding board member of BHR Partners, a Chinese investment company. In 2020, he began presenting artwork as a painter. In October 2020, the New York Post published an article about a laptop computer that previously belonged to Hunter Biden. The laptop contained around 129,000 emails and other materials, but the Post provided no evidence as to the chain of custody or authenticity of the device. Other media outlets opted not to publish the story due to questions about that lack of provenance. In March 2022, The New York Times and The Washington Post reported that some of the emails found on the device were authentic. Despite extensive speculation and scrutiny of the laptop contents by multiple parties, as of September 2022 no clear evidence of criminal activity by Biden has surfaced. Since late 2018, his tax affairs have been under federal criminal investigation.
