Hunter Biden details father's visits and Burisma income
In a recent appearance on the ‘Dopey’ podcast, Hunter Biden shared personal details regarding his past struggles with addiction. He recounted two instances when his father, then-Vice President Joe Biden, personally visited his Washington, D.C., residence to check on him. Hunter noted that these visits involved a reduced motorcade and Secret Service presence, which he could identify by the arrival of several SUVs outside his home.
Hunter Biden also addressed the financial aspects of his addiction, acknowledging that his compensation from the Ukrainian energy company Burisma helped fund his substance abuse. He stated that he earned approximately $50,000 per month while serving on the company’s board of directors between 2014 and 2019. He defended his qualifications for the role, citing his previous experience on various international boards.
Additionally, Hunter described a period of his addiction spent in Los Angeles, where he stayed in a bungalow at the Chateau Marmont for nearly two months. He characterized this time as one of his darkest chapters, noting he had arrived in Hollywood with the intent to ‘go out with a bang.’
